My Review:
I have watched this k-drama a long time ago. I can’t remember anymore everything about it but I remember the feeling that it was a great k-drama. So, for the sake of this review, I watched it again. And, I was glad to do so because my memory didn’t failed me and I was able to enjoy it all over again.
So, What do I Like About this K-Drama?
(1) I love Lee Jun Ki as Lee Soo Hyun or Kay in this k-drama. He has shown such excellent performance especially on difficult scenes. The emotions he had shown was very visceral that I can’t helped but be carried away by with what he was feeling. This is one of the best Lee Jun Ki’s Korean dramas before the lukewarm K-dramas that he had recently done.
(2) The supporting actors were also great especially Sung Ji Roo as Byun Dong Suk. He gave a memorable performance here worthy to be called a real actor.
(3) The story is fast pace with a lot of twists. It was very engaging from beginning to end.
(4) The action scenes were fantastic even if I don’t like violence, the way these scenes were directed are captivating.
What I do Not Like About this K-Drama?
Although I like this k-drama on its entirety, it was far from perfect. It was dramatic and filled with actions performed by great actors, however, there are unbelievable scenarios especially on Lee Soo Hyun, who seems to be like Superman who never dies. I know that I am rooting for him not to die while watching the episodes but the situations he always gets into have such improbable conditions for him to be still alive.
Would I recommend this K-Drama? Yes
