It's been a while since I gave a drama a 10/10. It also got me out of a kdrama slump in which i was watching dramas…
I am also glad they didn't actually add romance to it. that would have spoiled the fun of this drama. That isn't what I wanted to see in this drama after all and adding it would have sidetracked all the amazing elements this drama has. Even if he confessed I am glad the answer was left open.
It's been a while since I gave a drama a 10/10. It also got me out of a kdrama slump in which i was watching dramas but not enjoying them as much and I got bored in the middle and put them on hold (cycle repeated). But this one is moving; I love the characters each and every unique one; and Ma eum has a very special place in my heart played splendidly by Kim Se Jeong. I also love the athlete background paired with her personality and her struggles. The MD Yoon Hee acted really well - she has that charisma where she quietly dominates the room. She's calm but her subtle expressions and actions show that she is not to be messed with.
Each and every character and the entire script is so well written. Hats off to the manga and script writers. Absolute love to the actors and the entire team involved in the production of this drama. I also really like the way it was wrapped up - very few dramas I've watched handle the ending this well.
Everything is great from the acting to the cinematography. The script is also good and well paced. great characterisation. However unfortunately I just can't swallow the fact that the romance is between woo ju and the ex lover's son. I would never be able to swallow that sort of thing no matter how good someone is. It just gives me the creeps.
Still I must say Lee Sung Kyung is incredible <3. I want to watch more of her main roles. I also loved her in Sh**ting stars
Although I don't hate on any actor for their acting skill.. (I just think oh yes this one acted great this one didn't resonate with me and so on) I admit that I wasn't impressed by her role in K2. However I see incredible improvements in all her roles since and I can just say that it's perfectly human to not be good at something initially but when you see such improvement it just points to her hard work and dedication. So yes she deserves the award. I don't agree with people saying 'she made the same expressions as in this or that drama or that it is easy to act crazt etc..'
I love her acting. It's so strong without using a strong tone but you can just feel the power and charisma. She makes me fangirl every time I see her in a role And she is so incredibly beautiful
This was a wild wild ride and I loved every moment of it. Aaah! I'm still reeling from the emotions and suspense, the grief and injustice... The acting, characters, scripting, soundtrack, portrayal everything was beautifully put together. An enticingly solid delivery.
Main Actors all 3 of them incredible job. I just love that even support actors did such a great job. Every single one of them. Except for the character and actor of role - Charles which I didn't understand. Special mention of the support role with more screen time: Yoon Jae, Baek moon kang, minister guk hee, the chief, and the rest
I am just on the first episode. I loved the manga and anime for this. But the actor for - Tsuruga Ren character isn't handsome nor does his dialogue give the right vibe. Ahh I am not happy with the looks and even character played by him. Apart from the actor, the script makes him out as a jerk but the anime/manga were not like that - yes he was strict about work but he didn't do anything as jerklike as with the photo sign event shown here. Bupo Shuang seems similar enough though and so does Ren's manager. Of course I will keep watching for the story because I love it.
Update: Ok so the character seems to match a bit better in episode 2 Ugh. What's with the Ja hey. He doesn't need such a weird quirk. be more realistic..
Objectively speaking it really doesn't make sense to stop airing dramas just because of a single actor(allegations/rumors against them ). One drama takes up budget, time, and the efforts of so many people from the cast to the crew, writer, directors and producers, sound engineers etc. Wasting everything just does not make sense. I have no idea why this is so common in China/SK
What?! I didn't know it was the same story as Fabricated City, otherwise I would have watched it immediately. Plus Ji Chang Wook in another action role!! Yes! update while watching: Ooh the extreme emotions I can feel them myself
I want to quickly watch this! I mean I like the premise but not everyone can make things as good and interesting as Ahn Bo Hyun. So I am basically here for him and Lee Joo Bin - people say she's good, haven't watched any of her main roles yet so I can't tell but I'm sure she's good. Looking forward to it

Why in the world is she not more popular...
