Cães de Caça (2023)

Do it! Go watch it! Don't hesistate! A netflix without an open ending, finally!

I loved this one. Disclaimer: Don't mind KSR character disappearance and just watch it expecting that her story ends somewhat well. I think it wasn't completely out of nowhere and was very happy they didn't keep any loose strings with her like dying or so.

The series: it was amazing and complete. The two leads played their parts very well and helped the other stay grounded and grow. I am sad we didn't get our perfectly happy ending but the story did make sense.

The ending: it was great. There's a possibility for season 2 and there's hope that we see them again; however, the story we followed ended. No hiding tricks and nothing left for us to see with the plot beyond our characters' original dream coming true. The characters grew into what we wanted them to be.

Please watch if you don't mind blood. Some hard scenes will be there but it's not horror level gore. The action is great I usually skip action scenes because they don't interest me but I found myself replaying to watch them again.

Hopes for season 2: !!!!!!!! (please please please skip this part if you didn't finish it yet) idm spoliers but the below won't be nice to know before watching!!!!!!!!!!!!

- I really wanna see and believe Lee Doo-young or at least his family are alive! If there were to be season 2 it'd be too bad that all the ahjusshis are gone!
- If that isn't possible, I want a pre-Kim Myeong-gil storyline with old gang.
- I am dropping my hopes of Hyun-joo's return but if she were to comeback I want to know she's done something to the revenge could be unrelated to the clean up our couple has done but still some active participation that helped them in secret.
- Jae-min, our kim min jae, he needs to be back! He's a smartass and could be used by Ill group illegally if they ever wanna enter the scene - in an attempt to not be targeted by some goons again. Y'know the chaebeol style/pride.
--> The MARINES! Idk what about them but that plotline better go somewhere. I loved the addition and it gave an incredible spice.

Is there more?

Overall this show was intense and kept me interested. Like many others have said there was definitely a disconnect starting episode 7. I was also kind of disappointed of the ending, I feel like I didn't get the most satisfaction. WDH didn't kill the villain and we didn't see what happened to him after which was unsatisfying. It didn't feel like a final fight scene- I would say the best one was the first one in episode 8.

Also the fact that they captured Beom and tied him up and then let him go to the hospital so that he wouldn't die was so stupid because he just kept coming back like a video game character. They finally didn't need him for any info so there was 0 reason to keep him alive bc he literally spawned. I surprisingly really liked the bow and arrow girl, it was cool to see some variation from fist fighting lol. Acting was pretty good and WDH never disappoints. I'm not usually into gore and violence but this was an enjoyable and quick watch for the most part.

I enjoyed this one as a fun action packed bromance to get the adrenaline rushing and the sudden need to hit the gym.

I was actually biting my nails a couple of times because the combination of music, staging and suspense just worked in a lot of moments of this drama. The tone is very solid overall. The two main characters are so lovable! And the actors portraying them are so charismatic! Yes. Give me a solid bromance any day of the week. Their chemistry was off the charts!

This drama is just plain fun, thrilling and action packed. But it also has heart with the wonderful bromance between the two male leads. There was not a moment that was draggy for me, which is a common issue with some dramas of this nature. I love that this is a shorter series that knew exactly what it was. It never tried to be some ridiculous super complicated drama that has tons of unnecesary plot twists for the sake of surprise. No. This drama is a simple, bloody, action good vs evil type of show. It is entirely self aware and not afraid to cut it short when it needs to. As long as you're aware of it before watching it you'll be happy.

It even goes as far of sending one of their main characters away when she is no longer needed in the story. I am probably in a minority but I applaud this decision. The FL was not bad but from a writing perspective she had nothing to contribute at that point of the drama and the writers just sent her off somewhere else. You know it was the right decision when you don't even miss her. The heart and soul of the drama are the boys anyways, so it's ok. And I actually prefered the end of the series FL that replaced her. She had so much more chemistry with the boys and was a breath of fresh air. She was not presented as a hinderance and was used sparingly, not taking unnecesary screentime away from the boys like the previous FL.

All in all I enjoyed this one a lot! It's a nice not very complicated show that made me smile, scream and cheer at my screen more than a couple of times. Well worth watching!

I have to say that this show was a roller coaster of intense action and heartfelt moments. my favorite part of this drama is the bromance that they had on this show. You will not deny that they had a strong bond sense the first episode when they sparred in the ring together. It was very interesting how they based the show and the story line on the covid 19 epidemic. Those were hard times that people were struggling with and are still struggling with till this day. I was able to relate to certain moments of the show which I liked. I was on the edge of my seat the whole entire time, especially when it came to the fighting scenes like .... OMG so amazing. If there is one thing that you would like about this drama if not anything else is the relationship the two male leads have with each other. We barely get to see a lot of bromance dramas and this has become one of my favorite action dramas of the year. I also have to say that some of the scenes were predictable but overall its a really great watch especially if you are someone who likes a lot of action and suspense.

It's a 100/10 for the friendship between Geon Woo & Woo Jin, the excellent definition of their muscles, and the red shorts. Although overall this is a very violent kdrama, the two of them brought so much warmth and humor. I loved how Geon Woo remained true to himself. I was not expecting his character to be so precious!

I watched this in two days, driven by the fast pacing and intensity. Choi Tae Ho, Hyeon Joo, Yang Jung, Doo Young, and Da Min were all so lovable. The entire cast was amazing, and Park Sung Woong plays a very formidable villain which made it a high stakes story. Although I fast-forwarded through the violence sometimes I did feel like the fights were choreographed and executed really well. The reason why my rating is lower is for two reasons:
1) It's sometimes baffling when the good guys underestimate the threat they're up against. Some of them should've known better!
2) The plot of the last two episodes was underwhelming (but bless those red shorts & training scenes). Choi Si Won's character especially felt like a missed opportunity; he really fell flat.

But overall, so glad I watched this because I'm an even bigger fan of Woo Do Hwan and Lee Sang Yi now.

I'm not one for action dramas, but this was a really good watch. There were a few things missing or a few things that happened that I felt shouldn't have and that's why I gave this a 9.5. It's super good, but not perfect.

One thing I really enjoyed were the actors. Both ML's are so good in their characters and I really started to enjoy every scene with their little family they were making. I also loved the FL and I was really disappointed when she left the series towards the end. That was one of the things I felt shouldn't have happened. It didn't really make any sense to me plot wise and although it wasn't awful without her, I just felt it didn't fit with her character and she definitely would've stuck around to avenge her grandfather as well. She spent most of her life learning this trade with him and then dips right after?

The other thing that I thought was missing is I wish we could've gotten more of the ML's real boxing matches. Just a handful would've added a lot to the story I feel instead of them just doing it the one time when they meet. I don't think it could've been used for plot any, but it would've been nice to see more of it since they rely so heavy on them being boxers.

Overall, the story was incredible and I couldn't wait to get to the end and see how they would wrap things up. The last 2-3 episodes were a little slow with getting to the climax, but it was worth it.

Good start but poor execution

At the beginning it was interesting and unique, but got meaningless towards the end. Just fights, too many, over and over and with the same outcome. The story buildup was screwed over when they suddenly decided to wipe off more than half of the characters and toss away the main female role for no reason. The male leads are hot and their acting is good, but unfortunately their characters are too naiive to the point it gets annoying. Overall in the second half the plot is very boring and monotonous, they just fight all the time and repeat the same mistakes. For some reason, at the end the main villain's actor is replaced with a double, and the ending is quite plain and weak.

I the 4 stars are for the amazing male leads and the good filming.

A very promising start that couldn't hold on until the end.

I'll try to make this my simplest review ever.

This is actually a good show; it's very easy to binge watch and the show itself is very enjoyable. These types of shows can easily reignite your interest in dramas if you haven't felt like watching any.

Things I liked:
- I liked the cast
- Comedic scenes were actually very funny
- Bromance in this drama is topnotch
- The fighting scenes were really good for the most part

Things I didn't like:
- The acting of some people kind of looked awkward. I'm pretty sure there were a few mistakes that were overlooked
- Majority of the series was fine, but towards the end, things started to go south plot-wise
- Maybe because this drama is based on a webtoon, but it kind of felt more like an anime towards the end of the series
- Again, towards the end of the drama, I felt like the writers lost their touch and became ambiguous

If I were incharge of finishing this drama, I would've gone a different route and made things a bit more interesting.

Overall, this is still a good watch and I would still recommend.

ITS PERFECT.... The action is top notch. The story is immaculate and impeccable other than the fact that they shud have shown a final scene of the girl in Italy or something. Other than that this is my new #1 show. It is a hook. If u don't watch it your missing out. Some sad moments that i was hoping would never have to come ... but then if they didnt this drama would be like the manty other cringy dramas where eveyone gets up like an immortal being after getting shot or stabbed.
Overall this is definitly worth evryones time.
Looking forward for a S2 if they make it. ?
Happy binging!

The bromance is the best part!

I just LOVED the bromance! Especially since it's between two of my favorite actors; I found myself giggling and kicking my feet whenever they had moments together. The relationship between the characters was so heartwarming. The humor was top-notch. The fighting scenes were amazing. They didn't shoe-horn romance in the middle of the story just for the sake it, which I'm really thankful for—we don't need romance in every story. Overall, it was so gripping, action-packed, and suspenful that I finished it all in one sitting! Everything about it was so perfect for me. If I had one complaint it would be to slow down the ending a little bit; it felt a little rushed, but otherwise it's an extraordinary drama.
