This drama is underrated. I know it was one of the most popular kdramas that aired last year, but the fact that I’ve literally looked up “Best Kdramas” and “Good/Great Kdramas to watch” multiple times and Fiery Priest wasn’t anywhere to be seen on the multiple lists I’ve looked at makes this show underrated.
This show is pure GOLD, seriously, I feel like I’ve hit the jackpot. First off, if you love laughing than this show is a must, please take it from someone who’s life motto is “Laugh, as much as you can, as hard as you can.” You will NOT regret it, I swear to you on my life. It’s so FUNNY literally from start to finish. I watched this show because how funny people said it was, but I did NOT expect it to be this funny, goodness gracious. I’ve laughed so hard in each episode. Of course it’s not all hehehe, there are serious and seriously sad moments, and plot twists. Oh it’s also ACTION PACKED! Filled with scenes that makes you want to take up on martial arts. It’s a PERFECT example of a comedy, crime, and action series.
What makes this show sooo appealing, besides that fact that it’s funny as hell and has cool fight scenes, is how fresh and new the plot is. The show’s about an unconventional priest who tries to bring justice to his fellow priest who got murdered. Now, when I say unconventional, I mean UNCONVENTIONAL. He can kickass, he’s extremely impatient and has anger issues, but he’s so freaking awesome! It does NOT get any more unconventional than that, but that’s exactly what makes his character and this show so enjoyable. You’ve never seen anything like it. It’s super refreshing. Props to Kim Nam Gil, seriously, he did a fabulous job portraying his character. This show deserves to be watched and praised! I really hope they make a season 2.
Please Please Please if you’re even 0.000000000001% interested in this drama, just WATCH IT! You’ll be glad you did!
