Topic: Mr. Kim

https://next-episode.net/mr-kim

https://static.next-episode.net/tv-shows-images/huge/mr-kim.jpg

An ordinary family man who, one day, reveals his identity as a special agent to find his missing daughter Min-ji, risking everything to save her.

(AKA: Agent Kim Reactivated)

First episode was quite good, sort of like a Korean version of Taken as a TV show,

Re: Mr. Kim

First episode was good indeed.

That background info at the end went way too fast though, had to pause and replay a couple of times smile
I do hope (and assume) they will get into it some more in later episodes.

▼Spoiler

That was quite the amount of blood on the ground...
It's either Taken, if she is still alive, or John Wick, is she isn't yikes

Deserved more runtime:
Abbys | Dead Like Me | Devs | Firefly | Gangsta. | Jack of all Trades | Kevin (probably) saves the World | Lodge 49 | Mrs. Davis | NYC 22 | Powerless | Roadkill | Special Unit 2 | Stumptown | Surface | The Brave | The Crazy Ones | The Finder | The Middleman | Truth Seekers | Two Weeks to Live | Whiskey Cavalier

Re: Mr. Kim

Episode 2 was awesome, now I am hooked smile

What I didn't get was...

▼Spoiler

so after labor the docs come out and say "but the mother"...he goes in and....she is still alive and then dies slowly?????

What the f**k are the docs doing? How are they not trying everything in their power to keep her alive? Most causes for a mothers death after child birth are treated with immediate medical intervention...not with giving up??

Deserved more runtime:
Abbys | Dead Like Me | Devs | Firefly | Gangsta. | Jack of all Trades | Kevin (probably) saves the World | Lodge 49 | Mrs. Davis | NYC 22 | Powerless | Roadkill | Special Unit 2 | Stumptown | Surface | The Brave | The Crazy Ones | The Finder | The Middleman | Truth Seekers | Two Weeks to Live | Whiskey Cavalier

Re: Mr. Kim

Maybe

▼Spoiler

too much blood loss, organ failure, or something else that is "comfort" only.  Might not have been due to giving birth, but triggered by it?

Re: Mr. Kim

I really enjoyed it, and I believe the character development was pretty nice, and the best thing is the lead actor playing that role amazingly. The scenario and everything are so nice that I got hooked, and this is the first time I've gotten hooked on something Korean.

Even if the scenario were not good, the lead actor's performance is beyond; the way he controls his facial muscles and does that under-the-skin acting is superb.
