DP

 DP stands for deserter Pursuit.  It's hard to describe what's so good about this K-drama. I think it's so good because it avoids the clichés of other K-dramas. The topic is quite serious and while there are characters who do funny things inside the episodes, it's not a comedy, it's a drama, but it's also not one of those romantic dramas. It's a drama based on a real situation that happens to people in the South Korean military, so it doesn't have any of that kind of phoniness.  The first season was a glorious six episodes long and each episode was 45 minutes long, so you could watch that in a day and evening.  In the drama, there is this team of military police, and they try to catch deserters from the South Korean army.  I really like the acting of all the actors in the series, but I'm particularly like the main actor because he has this sort of very calm rational demeanor throughout the whole series until we get to a point where it's the first time when something terrible happens that he starts crying hysterically, like a cry from the soul. I thought that that was really great acting, and the series has really great writing, and really great directing.
