![]() Chief Han and Joo Won appear to have an interesting way of relating to each other they don’t seem to get along very well, but they also come across as having an astute understanding of each other. It does take time for us to see beneath Joo Won’s stoic, finicky surface, but Show does eventually peel back those layers to reveal what really makes Joo Won tick, as well as unveil the ghosts that haunt him, on the inside.Į6. I found Yeo Jin Goo pitch perfect as Joo Won, our well-heeled, well-connected Inspector from Seoul, who suddenly arrives in the sleepy small town of Manyang, where things are a lot messier than he’s used to. He’s got a very weighty screen presence, for someone who’s only 23! Here, I felt impressed all over again, with Yeo Jin Goo’s acting chops, as well as his onscreen gravitas, in this show. My gut feel with Yeo Jin Goo, at least for now, is that he does better at dramatic roles compared to romantic roles (I thought he was so blah in My Absolute Boyfriend, on top of being blah in Hotel Del Luna, that I forgot how blown away I was, by his turn in The Crowned Clown), so this was a treat, to see him in a dramatic role again. To be honest, I didn’t much enjoy Yeo Jin Goo in the last thing I saw him in, which happened to be Hotel Del Luna, so it was really good to see him in a new role, with fresh possibilities. Simju on his days off, and how it would be weirder, if he abandoned his regular routine in the wake of Min Jeong’s (Kang Min Ah) disappearance. Like how his interrogators know that it’s his habit to hike up Mt. And he has a point, every time he makes a statement. I have to admit that I got a bit of a kick out of the way he teases his interrogators, because even though he goes off on these bizarre tangents about ramyun and how it’s illegal to light a fire in the mountains, the fact of the matter is, he’s right. Perhaps he feels like he’s lost so much in life already – his sister, his parents, and any true sense of normalcy in his own life – that there’s nothing left for them to take from him? It’s almost like he’s toying with his predators, and the way he plays it, I almost feel like Dong Sik thinks he has nothing to lose.Īnd perhaps that’s exactly what he’s thinking. The vibe I’m getting from Show is that Dong Sik’s innocent, but his actions, particularly while under arrest, are anything but ordinary. but I can buy the idea that he does the things that he does, being kind to the residents of the town, because it brings him comfort.Į4. ![]() I guess I don’t see Dong Sik as being happy in the least.
