Solid story with a great cast
I started this drama cos the story was unique and nothing like I'd yet watched and I'm happy I gave it a try. I didn't have a single problem with the cast and asides from the first episode, the BGM never gave me any problems and I really liked the opening song, listened to it every single time.
The idea was good and I learned a bit about M&A, like it's not as emotionless and cold as I used to imagine. There's actually a lot of feelings and considerations when it comes to selling or giving up an asset even if it'll enrich you. I think Yoon's team did a good job of being considerate, infact it was far more than I'd expected but ultimately not unreasonable to me as a novice to such things.
Eps 7&8 were my favorite episodes of them all and really the peak as I didn't enjoy the final four very much.
I'm not really a fan of the revenge theme. I do understand the idea of an overarching story but I wasn't expecting it and didn't love it. I really liked the idea of a company in trouble bringing the best in his field to help them out and the resultant friction that could cause within a company such as that but the whole 'ex-employee revenge thing' just tired me out and I ended up watching the last two episodes in disjointed bits.
Its still a solid show and I might even check it out if it gets a second season because when the show was good it was really interesting and engaging and if you don't mind the revenge thing then you might enjoy it all the way to the end. (But I doubt I'll be rewatching this one again.)
Special shout-out to the production crew, the show was lovely to look out.
Professional looking people within a very polished and beautiful world (great cinematography.)
Chairman Song was an interesting character and I think the actor did a great job.
Lee Je Hoon was just a joy to the eyes. I loved the white hair, he looked ethereal atimes and his acting was good but I have to say my favorite character was O Sun Yeong whenever he was around, he looked so effortless and gentle especially his eyes and his voice is so soft and I guess I just liked him.
