Hooked from the first episode

Totally did not expect the element of surprise involving the gentle, fatherly magistrate and the male lead's intelligence and quick reflexes. Love the natural, rural setting.

Awesome

Emphasis on the vendetta is what transforms an ordinary story into an amazing drama. A vendetta gives the narrative a burning core, a personal reason that refuses to fade with time. It is not just about revenge, but about memory, pride, loss, and the need for justice as the character understands it. When a drama leans into vendetta, every action carries weight, every dialogue hides tension, and every silence feels dangerous. The audience is drawn into the emotional conflict, questioning whether revenge will heal or destroy the characters involved. Vendetta-driven drama thrives on moral ambiguity, forcing viewers to sympathize with flawed choices and painful decisions. It raises the stakes beyond simple good versus evil and explores how obsession can shape destiny. In the end, the emphasis on vendetta makes the drama unforgettable, because it mirrors real human emotions: anger, grief, loyalty, and the desperate desire to settle unfinished scores forever.

Thrilling

Great introduction to the series. The first episode gives us a detailed background and sets up the coming events/episodes very well. It is fast paced but easy to understand.

Actors who act

I can't say much about the first episode, except that all the actors acted well! And that's a lot to ask for in a drama these days. The ending was obviously unexpected; it was a surprise. I can add that...XHA's ordeal is only just beginning
