K2 – an action/spy drama

I’m a girl and I must confess that there are just few action dramas and movies that caught my interest, K2 is officially in this list. It is a political drama with a lot of punches and kicks, blood and bullets, and finally a cute love story.

The story is really complex, but just to make it simple to you there is a hot ex-agent of the secret service Kim Je Ha (Ji Chang Wook) that by accident meets Go An Na (Im Yoon Ah), he didn’t help her at the time and many years later her paths cross again when he tries to kill Choi Yoo Jin (Song Yoon Ah), the wife of the candidate to Presidente of Korea. He starts working with Choi Yoo Jin (Song Yoon Ah) because he is looking for revenge and the things get more and more complicated and romantic too…

It is interesting how politics are portrayed in this drama, they do not try to smooth this or make it more cute to the audience, they show how some politicians are rotten and corrupt. And of course there are a lot of fight scenes and shirtless parts that make it even better.

Another interesting fact is that Kim Je Ha is made of indestructible steal, because nothing can stop him! Bullets, knifes, puches or bombs are not enough, but to be honest, with a handsome face like his, nothing can get to him. He is like 007, but a Korean version (a better version in some people’s opinion).

The first time I saw Ji Chang Wook was in another action drama called Healer, he was fantastic there and it didn’t change in this particular drama, he is awesome! He can fight very well or maybe the editions in the episodes are really good, the fact is that he is really good in action scenes (and in shirtless scenes too). I’m not kidding, in this drama there are some “stronge” scenes where you can see great abs (or just close your eyes if you have a weak heart like me).

I have never seen Im Yoon Ah in another drama, she was pretty good in this one, interpret a person with many traumatic issues can be very hard, but she was more than perfect. I hope I can see her in more dramas like that.

So, if you like the mix of romance and drama, happiness and sadness, welcome to one of the best action dramas I have ever seen (actually I just watched 2 or 3 action dramas, it’s not that much). So, have fun with that.
