  • December 4, 2016

Bad Guys is a South Korean TV series that mixes the crime and action genre, running for two seasons. The first season of the show premiered on OCN on October 4, 2014, and consisted of 11 episodes. The series follows a team of criminals who were released from prison to work undercover on a mission against a dangerous criminal group. Like most crime dramas, it includes scenes of violence, so viewer discretion is advised.

The first episode of Bad Guys is titled "Watch the Throne" and opens with a scene of a gruesome murder. The killer of the scene has decapitated a man and is seen leaving the area with a suitcase. The police investigation leads them to a person of interest, a notorious dealer with a significant criminal record. The investigation stalls when the team cannot find a witness to the crime.

The police department gathers a team of criminal experts who are now behind bars to help them solve the murder. The team consists of Park Woong-cheol, a former prosecutor who was jailed for assaulting a judge and his mistress; Lee Jung-moon, a former contract killer, and hitman who was apprehended in Hong Kong; Jung Tae-soo, a gangster who was convicted of several crimes but left behind a trail of blood and misery; and a newbie, Han Gang-joo, a computer genius who was caught hacking into the Ministry of National Defense.

The police department sends the team on a mission to convict a group of criminals who are suspected of being responsible for a recent string of murders. The team's leader, Oh Goo-tak, tells them that if they help the police department solve the case, they will receive a reduced sentence. Initially, the criminals are hesitant to work with one another, but they finally agree when they realize that they can help each other out in each other's respective areas of expertise.

The team first finds a lead in the case when they tap into the phone of the deceased's wife, who is also a suspect. The wife tells her lover about the murder and the suitcase that contained her husband's head. When the team investigates the lead, they find that the lover has already disposed of the suitcase, but they discover the murder weapon in the process.

The team further investigates the crime and finds that the murder is the result of an internal power struggle within the criminal organization. The dispute is between the head of the organization, Jang Sung-cheol, and his second in command, Kim Sung-tae. When the team finally catches Kim, they find out that he was responsible for the murder and that Jang Sung-cheol ordered it to take over the organization.

As the episode comes to a close, the team realizes that they are in too deep. They may have solved the initial case, but the criminals they were after are far more dangerous than they ever thought. With the mission not even close to being over, it seems that this is just the first step in a long journey for the team of Bad Guys.

Overall, the season premiere of Bad Guys, "Watch the Throne," sets up a solid foundation for the remainder of the season. The episode is full of twists and turns that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats. The criminal team is fascinating, and their dynamic is exciting to watch. Fans of crime dramas will love what the show has to offer, and episode one serves as a great introduction to the team and their mission.
