TV Review: Strongest Deliveryman (2017) (Drama-Romance)

Strongest Deliveryman (최강 배달꾼)
2017
16 episodes
M
Drama-Romance
Netflix

Two gutsy food delivery workers strive to overcome their socioeconomic disadvantages to achieve big goals -- and bump into love along the way.

Strongest Deliveryman was a drama that started strongly. I liked the message of the show and how it portrayed the harsher realities facing those lower on the economic ladder. The cast all acted well and the two leads had good romantic chemistry. One of my favourite characters was Oh Jin-gyu, whose transition from thoughtless chaebol was compelling. The series held my interest throughout; however, I found the ending a little lacklustre. After all the build-up, it seemed to be over a little too easily and suddenly, and I still had a few questions about the future of some of the characters. Nonetheless, I did enjoy it overall, and I am giving it four stars.
