The story takes place in Seoul, 2011. Lee Yoon-sung is a talented MIT-graduate who's working on the international communications team at the Blue House. He encounters dangerous situations while solving a variety of cases, both big and small, for people who need his help, and eventually becomes a "city hunter."

What I would give to be back in 2012 watching this for the first time. Back when I could effortlessly reconcile the image of lee minho in a leopard print sweater with with the image of him as the ultimate badass. Back when deep v's and alligator print pants were cool!!
Not the Jackie Chan City Hunter but a Korean TV series from 2011. 20 episodes of an hour each. The premise is ridiculous and at times it gets weighted down with melodrama - in other words a typical Korean TV series - but overall it is good fun. After the North Koreans try to assassinate the President of South Korea, they send in a special group within the army to kill as many NK generals as possible. They do this but then five men within the govt decide the troops have to be killed. They betray them by gunning them all down in the water as they swim towards their submarine. Only one man escapes.
This is where it gets…
i don't remember much about this anymore but this was soooo popular in my country back in the days lol and JONGHYUN's OST - SO GOODBYE will always be sooo good
I still listen to the soundtracks of this show. One of my favorites.
Oh Joon Sung is a legend.
Yeah this is dumb like really really fucking dumb, and it only gets more and more ridiculous as it goes a long, but it's also a lot of fun, so much so that it is hard to stop watching, it genuinely just flew by, probably helped on by my immense nostalgia for it.
It's hard to recommend to people because it's really not that good or anything of the sort really, but I certainly enjoyed it A LOT <3 (even though the climax is kind of a let down)
5/10 might also be a bit too generous of a score
The main characters have nice chemistry to each other which makes the viewers interested to the movie.
I really like Lee Min Ho in this drama because he is very cool with his various actions.
Delivers an engaging mix of action, romance, and revenge, led by Lee Min-ho’s charismatic performance as a vigilante seeking justice. The series shines with its thrilling plot twists, emotional depth, and strong chemistry among the cast.
However, some may find the pacing uneven, and a few side characters feel underdeveloped. Despite these minor flaws, the drama’s intense action sequences and heartfelt moments make it a standout for fans of action-packed Korean dramas.
Peak Lee Min-ho and Park Min-young
série magnifique 💯 ..
I think this is the first Korean action drama that I watched, and it was my first introduction to Lee Min Ho as well.
I think it’s a great entry to Kdrama and has plenty of action and thrills, balanced with romance. Lee Min Ho and Park Min Young were actually together for awhile after the show, so if you look at that way, the chemistry feels a little more real. Of course it could have been the blurred lines between reel and real, but it’s still very nice.
The first K-Drama I’ve ever watched back in 2012. Rewatched it in 2023, I think it still holds up well in most aspects.
