It was short so I slogged through it but I just couldn't quite get over the doctors killing people and getting away with it then killing the cop who was on their tail because why? They were genius doctors who went over the edge of sanity? Because they knew where to plunge the knife? Left me with a bad taste even though the actors were really brilliant in their portrayals. I like redemption arcs. Even tiny ones.

This drama follows the volatile love story between two obsessive surgeons, who see murder as totally reasonable way to getting (or keeping) what they want. Honestly, the plot itself sometimes plays fast and loose with logic, but it all holds together because it knows its lead characters inside-out. The dynamic between Deok-hee and Se-ok feels so true and right that the story coheres even when it's kind of bonkers. Park Eun-bin and Sol Kyung-gyu are perfect together. Parts of it are edgy and in bad taste, but as someone who likes messy, ambiguous, genuinely insane relationships, this was right up my alley.

I will finish this one, but I can't bring myself to watch all the episodes already... I'm 3 in and I don't want it to end, so I'm pacing myself by watching other stuff in the meantime (accidentally fall down the rabbit hole by discovering Kairos - which I was convinced was a futuristic take on Indiana Jones in Egypt!) so, it may be some time before I go back to Hyper Knife but I will!
