Honestly, i can't understand some of the comments/criticisms. The drama is classified, it has been said over and over again that there were scenes of nudity/explicitness, and very bloody ones. If you don't like that, why are you watching ? You have been warned so why come and complain about it afterwards?
It's not because there are explicit scenes that all k-dramas will become like that, stop generalizing, in addition by saying that it becomes like American series, because no.

Regarding Ji Chang Wook, nothing to say, the presence he has is incredible. He plays his role as king to perfection, his acting is greatly conveyed through his eyes.
And Lee Soo Hyuk is just incredibly evil and that's because he plays his role well, I can't wait to see how his character develops.

I'm waiting for the other 4 episodes to make my final opinion, but I already like it a lot. It's not long, everything happens quickly, the queen is not a weak queen as we often see. She is more intelligent than we think (she has just lost the man she loves, give her some time)

So again, when you don't like a genre of drama (or whatever) don't watch it just to criticize, especially when you're warned. The cast and crew do a lot of work behind every drama, whether you like it or not.
We all have the right to not like, or to like ! But, there is a difference between giving your opinion when you didn't like a drama, and giving criticism of a kind of drama that you know in advance that you don't like.

As Ji Chang Wook said, the ending will make people happy and disappointed. For me it's the most realistic ending and therefore what makes the drama even better. Although it is heartbreaking. With the last scene, we get a glimpse of what Junmo and Gicheol could have been if they were paired together. Junmo succeeded in his mission, was promoted but lost everything. Like everyone else. I'm just happy that Haeryun decided to protect Junmo while knowing the truth. For me this drama is flawless. The action scenes, the scenarios but especially the acting! It is realistic, we see who we can become by plunging into a dark world, we see what we gain, but above all what we lose, we see who should not be trusted blindly. I really liked the relationship and bond between Junmo and Gicheol. I will miss this drama so much !

Thank you to all the actors but particularly to Ji Chang Woo and Wi Ha Joon for this magnificent drama with a lot of emotion.

The drama is not over but I have no words to describe it. All the emotions and what Joon Mo has been going through since the infiltration started, it's hard, very hard. The acting of all the actors is absolutely perfect and the scenes too. Honestly, I already really loved Ji Chang Wook and Wi Ha Joon but this is another level. I'm a hypersensitive person and I feel bad for Joon Mo when I watch the episodes, I feel like I'm suffocating in his place. The mission is destroying little by little, we can see it, and I wonder if there will be a way back.

I see a lot of people complaining about "romance", "love triangle". Do you watch the episodes carefully? There is no love triangle, just a husband and wife trying to protect each other and survive until the end of the mission.
During the scene at the hotel I felt bad for Joon Mo, we saw how he was suffering and struggling, fortunately it was interrupted, he wouldn't have to go any further. In the car, we can clearly see Eui Jung had her fists clenched and she was crying.

When you have a drama of this quality it's really hard to wait for the next episodes!

Finally someone who thinks correctly. I'm sorry but the acting of the actors is perfect and conveys to us their distress, and nothing else.

Anyone know who the director/screenwriter is? Thanks

Well... like many I'm a bit disappointed with the ending and I can't give it a 10. Firstly because I didn't understand what they did with Sang Ji and U Ri, it's all nonsense... She loves him, but he doesn't and you can feel it. He likes the fact that she likes him. Then I'm glad that Yu Jang and Ji Woo have come clean and solved their relationship problems. As for Jin Ho and Bo Mi, I'm happy even if I think they moved too fast and weren't mature enough at all...
And then Bo ra and Soo Hyuk... 🥲
I've loved these two characters from the start. Everything happens in their eyes, you feel the attraction, the chemistry so why couldn't we have more scenes of the two of them as a couple 😭. I'm disappointed by this. They were almost jumping on each other kissing, giving us more what... I would have liked 16 episodes, really.

After as I said in a previous comment, I loved this drama. I had a good time, they made me smile and laugh a lot, and I like the realism of the drama. In short, I'm going to miss them 🥺

There are dramas too long, with too many episodes, and others too short and not enough episodes. That's what I think for this drama. I liked so much the realism of the drama even if it was short. The pain after a breakup, the questioning of yourself, thinking you were the problem, rethinking the whole relationship to look for any clue, coming back and begging, the return of the exes when you finally move on (that's why I don't care about the preview of the next episode, Bora doesn't suffer anymore when she sees Ju Hwan, she's cured of this relationship).

I enjoyed every episode so much, I smiled a lot, I laughed a lot, I like the attraction between Bora and Soo Hyuk (their eyes don't lie) that I'm not ready to say goodbye to them next week, really

This drama gets better and better as the episodes go on

Even after the first two episodes I can't hang on to the drama at all. Yet I love Woo Do Hwan and I was happy to see him in a new drama but I'm bored. I'm waiting for the next two episodes 😔
