Deal

Korean Drama '' The Deal '' is a thriller about three friends and a really sticky situation.

The drama starts out pretty strongly and is a psychologically twisty spiral that goes deeper and deeper into darkness, as the characters have to make their choices.

However, the drama suffers from its short length. Thus, it didn't have the chance to have a smooth progress, or have things develop organically. And, as the drama started adding more genres and more situations and twists, everything happened too quickly. In the end, the conclusion was rushed as well.

The performances, on the other hand, were all great by everyone in the cast.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

The story is fresh and interesting, raising themes that are rarely presented in a film or series but which often occur in the real world. The theme of kidnapping was carried out by someone close to him, namely his friend, because he wanted to ask for ransom money for college fees and pay off debts and change his poor life. The storyline is light but packaged with good cinematography which adds an interesting impression to each episode, the main and supporting characters play the scenes in this story quite well, giving a natural impression, as a kidnapper who is firm and realistic in thinking about things based on facts. On the other hand, there is a conflict with his conscience, namely feelings of guilt for his actions and fear.

"The Deal" is a amazing thriller K-drama. One of the standout elements of this series is the character of Lee Jun Seong, brilliantly portrayed by the talented actor Yoo Seung Ho. I just love his performance. His nuanced performance is a cornerstone of the series, making it a must-watch for fans of the genre.

What makes Lee Jun Seong so compelling is his ability to convey a wide spectrum of emotions. Whether he is grappling with internal conflicts, dealing with high-stakes situations, or navigating relationships, his emotional portrayal is always on point. Yoo Seung Ho's performance ensures that every emotional beat feels real and impactful. His expressions, body language, and dialogue delivery are meticulously crafted, adding layers to his character and making his journey believable and engaging.

The plot of "The Deal" is another aspect that makes it a standout thriller. I love all kdrama thrillers but plot for this one is so unique for me that k binge watch this show. The story is intricately woven, with twists and turns that keep viewers on the edge.

For me this series does an excellent job of building tension and creating a sense of urgency.

It delves into issues of trust, betrayal, and survival, challenging the characters and ThankGod the ending was so good because most of the thriller kdramas do not have satisfying ending.

For anyone who loves a good thriller, "The Deal" is a must-watch. Its engaging plot, strong performances, especially by Yoo Seung Ho as Lee Jun Seong, and emotional depth make it a standout in the genre. The intense storyline and well-drawn characters ensure that it stays with you long after you've finished watching.

In conclusion, I'm definitely recommending this one for you all.

Honestly, I lowkey expected it to be boring and a disappointment, but oh man, I was SOOO wrong. Watching it turned out to be the best decision ever!! From start to finish, I was completely blown away. It was packed with surprises that kept me on the edge of my seat, and I genuinely couldn't take my eyes off the screen.. The plot twists were incredible, each one hitting harder than the last, leaving me in awe...It was genuinely entertaining and enjoyable, far beyond my initial expectations. I literally cannot wait to rewatch it 10 more times!!! If you haven't seen it yet, trust me, you are missing out big time. This is one of those rare gems that truly deserves all the hype!!!

Another raw, no holds barred drama from Wavve, in the same uncompromising vein as the previous Wavve offering, "Weak Hero Class I (2022)".

The Perfect Deal features two ordinary young men thrown into the remorseless world of criminality, despite being patently ill prepared and unready for the lurid consequences of wandering, open-eyed into this grisly, twilight world of kidnapping and recompenses. Though just a miniseries (8 episodes in all) the stark, often blood-curdling realities encountered by so-called normal people, lured by the promise of gain into the potentially barbarous treatment of others is very reminiscent of the vintage US series Breaking Bad (2008-13), and whatever the differences of scale between the two dramas, the effect on the audience is just as face-on and, at times shocking. Those that enjoy tense dramas will probably warm to this one, which is guaranteed to jolt, and to keep you on the edge of your seat. I am looking forward, after watching 3 episodes to discovering just how the plot unravels, and whether anybody at all shall escape with life and liberty, or something a lot more lucrative?
