The more I mull over the ending the more I appreciate its intentions and achievements. It tried to take a different approach from its predecessor... maybe a bit too hard... but it was still a good watch overall. The Hanjo connection is still something of an anti-climax but I'm willing to let it pass because I've come to the conclusion after ruminating over the finale that the writer doesn't do "realistic" crime or political dramas in as much as she spins fables about the state of moral decay in social structures. It was the same with the first season. The contestability of Lee Chang-jun as a martyr for the cause was the shock factor to ensure that the conversation would continue for a time.
