Not Good... really.
Netflix typical... a product not artPoor editing, poor direction, writing that directs everything in the viewer's mind just like a classroom. They (Netflix) are not looking for art, they just want to make a series with a VFX and an interesting two-line idea that ends with a cliffhanger in each episode. This series is no different from the Silent Sea.
Netflix reminds us that how to proceed and follow the path is not less important than the initial idea, and if these things are not thought about, how the series will fall with the lack of plan and details.

A GOOD HOBBY
I particularly liked the entire plot of this K-drama. He brought up issues that are common to Brazilians today, namely inequality.The story is very engaging and keeps you hooked from beginning to end. The delivery men, their objectives, the life story of the main one and the story of 5-8 are very interesting and “intriguing”, so to speak.
The action scenes were very well designed and unlike other dramas, these scenes do not seem superficial or unrealistic at all.
I admit to having fallen in love with the actors and having cried at the death of the “useless” guy :(
It will definitely be a drama that I will recommend to someone in the future.

It could have been so much more but is so confused and so dispersed
Have you watched GoT? And despaired at how the absolutely brilliant storytelling sank in the final season delivering a PPT of events rather than a story? Well Black Knight is something like that. For me the loss is greater cos I had read the manhwa and was really looking forward to seeing the story brought to life. But, unfortunately, the story wasn't brought to life. Rather it was gutted, quartered and then parts of it was stitched together to provide a semblance of a silhouette of a story. In any way all that was there was a shadow of a story and it fell dispersed. And in absence of a story all you are left with is a lot of meaningless action which takes place cos it is meant to take place but you never connect with it.The one person I feel sorry for is Lee yungyun, the creator of Delivery Knight manhwa, on which the series is based. He was supposed to originally write the script but I see his name has been dropped from the credits. I guess he couldn't bear to be associated with the feeble attempt to stitch a few body parts of its original body and try and pass it off as a being. The complexity of the original, deeper story wasn't something which could be compressed to 6 episodes. I guess Netflix must have run out on money to produce this? In which case Netflix should have just optioned the story out.
Yet, in all this, Karma is at play too. Lee yungyun, who had been cruising along with his Manhwa suddenly stopped the manhwa back in 2019/20. I guess he was negotiating with Netflix then. And then he returned, to abruptly complete the story by telescoping the story arcs and bring the story to a close in just a few episodes. I wonder if he did that so as to not expose the story and leave room for doing a grand job with the Netflix series? Well Karma the bitch must have come to bite back then. I guess any author should respect the original muse and the original tryst with the story. I hope GRRM reads this.
