Signal and Tunnel - I believe I saw those on that app. Thanks for the tip! I will try to check those out.

FYI, these are the shows I have watched and really enjoyed so far that I mentioned above:

I really enjoyed one of the plotlines in “Healer” where they have to take on the political establishment and have to use alternative media to get their message out as the establishment keeps blocking news from getting out in their MSM and even spread fake news.

And that power couple in “The K2” has to be at least loosely based on Bill and Hillary Clinton (although again...that show has a few scenes that are just graphically violent...that doesn’t bother some folks - but just a word of warning)

Thank you for your recommendation of “Tunnel” - I just got done watching that series. It was as good as you said it would be (some of the violent scenes I thought was overly graphic - not necessary for us to know what was going on...but oh well). Well developed storyline and characters...actors all performed well. (***spoiler alert - I kind of wish they had shown a scene where he grew old in his normal timeline and regrouped with his friends he made in the future, but the way they did it still brought closure and was pretty much implied everything turned out).

Thanks again for the recommendation - I’ll see if I can find “Signal” next. By the way - given the kind of show “Tunnel” was and that you enjoyed it, I think you would definitely enjoy most, if not all, of the below shows as well (I’m also adding “Tunnel” to my running list of recommendations):

“Healer” - https://www.viki.com/tv/23730c-healer?locale=en

“Naked Fireman” (an odd title - not at all what it sounds like - it is perfectly appropriate) https://www.viki.com/tv/33954c-naked-fireman?locale=en

“Moorim School” https://www.viki.com/tv/27773c-moorim-school?locale=en

“The K2” https://www.viki.com/tv/31865c-the-k2?locale=en (Korea TV 15 rating - some of the violence is graphic)

“Mad Dog” https://www.viki.com/tv/35613c-mad-dog?locale=en

“Tunnel” https://www.viki.com/tv/33747c-tunnel?locale=en (Korea TV 15 rating - some of the violence is graphic)

I’m back again - just got done with “Signal” - it was an extraordinarily well done series but the ending was kind of flat...almost like they were setting it up for a possible sequel series. Nonetheless, it was well done. Interestingly, in the last week when doing the search on viki to continue watching episodes, another “Signal” starting appearing as “coming soon” - only the trailer is currently available right now - I watched it and this “Signal” appears to be a direct Japanese remake of the same series with a nearly identical plot and script. I might watch that when it becomes available in the future to see how it compares.

Thanks again for that recommendation...now I guess I’ll have to find and watch something else when I have time.
