An Asian Narcos (but without the S) with all the elements of an Asian movie production. You either love it or hate it and I love it.
No, it is not by far on the level of Narcos so if you compare it to these two, you will be disappointed. However, if you watched a Southkorean (or Asian) movie before, you are familiar with the type of acting and the English accent in these movies so you won't be bothered by it in Narco Saints.
The only thing that bothered me, as an Asian from the Netherlands with friends from Surinam, is the bad Dutch and Surinam language spoken in the serie. They should have at least hire actors who could speak or at least pronounce the Dutch and Surinam language properly. What they now have is just terrible. Other than that, I love the story.
