Black Knight could have been promising but well, you know, "the message".

Great sets, an interesting back story, decent characterisations but as per usual, woke messaging, this time about female empowerment and male inferiority. I managed one episode and part of the second, then walked away.

Of course, in pushing "the message" the actual story starts to spiral downhill and get subsumed beneath tiresome layers of prickly preachiness.

In summary, a great idea ruined by woke revisionism, yet again.

This is a well done series. The atmosphere, landscape and tone they set, it matches perfectly the apocalyptic times and despair of the people, who are divided according to social status and wealth. The "leaders", the wealthy, (this corporation running the world, basically) are unscrupulous and, unlike the present times, choose profit and power over people. The story is centered around one man, who rose above tragedy and gathered others around him, to fight a powerful enemy and try to protect the weak and helpless. The performances by legends such as Kim Eui-sung and Nam Kyung-eup are excellent,... read the rest.

It was good, I think deserves 7/10 in my opinion. The only thing I didn't like and noticed that seems like Korean people like idolizing. For example in this TV show they're idolizing 5-8 (one of the main characters). He's like a god - no one beats him, he can kill everyone and no one is like him, basically he's a Chuck Norris, which sadly makes TV show unrealistic and is meant for kids who idolize Chuck Norris or Rambo and etc... And I noticed this trend in other Korean TV shows as well. Other than that, it was good.
