I took another trip to the Korean Peninsula, and I surprisingly gave the pilot episode four stars. The show had a great pace and kept me entertained throughout. The main character was determined and resilient, but at times, she was surprisingly naive, which slightly detracted from her appeal. I hope the series continues in the same vein because what I've seen so far works for me. / Lesson learned: If a woman can casually fix her hair during intense physical exercise, don't underestimate her.

The episode felt mostly like filler. But hey, it was highly entertaining filler. The driver of the white van wouldn't be my first, second, or even third choice for the job, but it was worth it for the laughs. / Lesson learned: If organized crime can't be eradicated, at least let it be run by professionals.

This episode was significantly better than the pilot, driven by more violence and the cleanup that followed. Given the choice between rooting for marijuana growers, cocaine distributors, or meth dealers, I remain an impartial viewer, indifferent to who ends up in the trunk next. / Lesson learned: If Antón Castillo shows up, it's definitely about Viviro — no question about it.
