Vigilante has blown my mind. It has ticked every one of my boxes thus far. I do not exaggerate when I say that every single second of the four episodes I've seen had me HOOKED. Every second.
Yes, I do mean that unironically 👀
I'm not coherent rn, nor will I ever be about this I think, but if you enjoyed Taxi Driver and are waiting for season 3, like me, you can NOT miss this show. It's been adapted from a web toon (not sure how well) and while it is on the darker side (more so than Taxi Driver, because the consequences for the bad guys are significantly worse), it has a beautiful lightness to it that (refreshingly!) doesn't trivialise the deeper themes but in fact charges the whole show with emotion and nuance. The friendships and the mentoring are not too on the nose but instead perfectly balance the protagonist's lonelier and darker side.
So very gratifying to watch a kdrama that delivers like this after a long time. The action. The acting. The music. The drama. The writing. The pace. The plot. They did not pull any punches, good lord.
I have to say that the ending of the fourth episode delivered a full course meal. I could NOT be more satisfied. Which is why I'm here! Ranting about it to you! Go watch it if you're looking for some quality escapism 🙌
our man is finally getting the recognition he deserves!!!
CHAE JEONG-HYEOP AND PARK EUN-BIN ARE IN A NEW DRAMA TOGETHER!!! THIS IS NOT A DRILL I REPEAT, THIS IS NOT A DRILL! EVERYBODY, GET TO YOUR STATIONS!!
Okay, in all seriousness, I thought it'd be cool if the starred in a drama together because I was a huge chae jeon-hyeop fan in 2021 and huge park eun-bin stan in 2022. I didn't think i'd actually get my wish though, i mean like WHAT ARE THE CHANCES, YOU KNOW???

Wondering what the new #CheerUp #kdrama is all about? Wonder no more, because Drama Geek and The Maknae have you covered.
Once upon a time, there was a completely adorable little kdrama about high school students overcoming their differences to become a winning cheerleading team. It starred the likes of Jung Eun Ji and Chae Soo Bin and Lee Won Keun, and captured the hearts of viewers everywhere.
Cheer Up is NOT a remake of that kdrama – it’s set in the college arena, there are mysteries galore, and the cheerleading…
