"Song of the Bandits" drama discussion post (episodes 1-9)
An action-packed, character-driven Western set against the backdrop of the 1920s Japanese imperial rule? Enter Song of the Bandits, which dramatizes the century-ago Joseonian (Korean) uprising against Japan as a classic good guys vs. bad guys Western - with plenty of twists. Amid the Japanese occupation of Korea and the historic dispute over Gando (a region between China and Korea), it’s not always easy to tell the good from the bad. In Song of the Bandits, the intricate lives of the characters are caught up in the big-picture conflicts of the times - and the intrigue is as thick as the sandstorms that sweep over the hotly contested borderlands.
