Karma has been stirring the audience for the past few weeks ever since it dropped its curtain. The reason behind its impeccable popularity is because of its gripping storyline and jaw-dropping plot.
The series' inception ignites the catapult as a firefighter is rushed to a hospital in a flammable state. A pair of doctors saved his life. The scene swiftly shifts to a rented apartment where a man is dragged out by the goons of a loan shark. He gets saved before his organs are chopped apart from his body. The hunting does not end here as a son kills his father to earn insurance money and save his ass.
This six-episode miniseries is drenched in love and hunger. The craving more more and fear of losing cripples human more than they expect it. It's a truth that we all are driven by our lust for survival. Nothing can get in between the need. And when our needs get threatened, our power to make decisions gets clouded.
A witness to a serious crime finds his life turning upside down. Park Hae Soo, in the shoes of a tentative witness, breaks the stereotype and carves a snowball through multiple shades.
The director does not even use the name to bring characters alive. They are called debtors, loan sharks, and witnesses when they arrive on the scene. To reflect on the intricacies of life, the name holds no importance. The story kept on getting darker with the passing of each episode.
Korean dramas pay extra care when they build a thriller. Karma, just like its meaning suggests, is a dark tale laced in life’s sarcasm. It is bitter and gruesome, but intriguing more than ever.
