Review | K-drama review: Big Mouth – Disney+ series starring Lee Jong-suk is so full of plot holes, it’s like the Korean drama equivalent of Swiss cheese

This article contains minor spoilers.

2/5 stars

Following 16 turbulent episodes of breathless plotting and sharp reversals, crime drama Big Mouth has come to an end. It gave us political intrigue, prison power struggles, medical and corporate malpractice and even a rushed election, but what was the point of it all?

A lot happened over the course of the show, but precious little was in service of a coherent story, and hardly any of it made sense for the characters, who were tossed around different situations to suit the script’s tempestuous needs, regardless of their personal trajectories.
