Title Sisyphus: The Myth
The rating seems off, I don't get it either. Less accurate than the ratings for most dramas, and almost put me off from watching. It seems like we didn't watch the same thing. This is a pretty solid well balanced show. Production is movie quality, which is exceptional. The story flows better than most. Every scene has a purpose, and there aren't any dull episodes. Characters are rich, and well acted. Not overly complicated or cerebral, accessible. Pretty good action every episode. I've been waiting for decent scifi, that wasn't just veneer and gimmick, and finally got it. Because of other reviews, I was worried this show would have the common problem of starting out with a neat concept then devolve into a romance or something. That didn't happen. Also, Sung Dong-Il was amazing, and holy crap Kim Byung-Chul plays an amazing villain.
