Worth your time, great chemistry, interesting new kind of story

I've just completed this drama and I totally loved it.
I've seen dramas of FL + ML before but I did not recognise the ML in the teaser. He is such a versatile actor and I am at awe how he can change from "I'm a poor puppy, protect me please" to "I'm a psycho and I might eat your liver just because I can". (he doesn't say that don't worry.)
I am surprised how the story turned out to be about empowering women and changing the game. So refreshing! Writers, please give us more of this kind of stories.
If you're tired of the damsel in destress then this is absolutely for you.

There is a lot of slow burning romance and I mean burning hot romance, the chemestry is absolutely there. The way it is shot there must have been a big enough budget. Clothes, costumes, everything seems high end and elaborated as you can see right in the opening scene.
The main leads are amazing but all the other cast members were great, too.
Some are added for a bit of humour, fun and warmth and I really appreciate the writing of this story - also because of this.

The ending is super nerve-wracking and I am happy they found a good enough ending.
I don't want to spoiler the end so I'm not gonna write much about it. I was hoping for a different kind of ending but in line with the writing it makes absolutely sense. So, cudos to the writers.

Of course, I whole heartedly recommend this drama and I'll probably rewatch it.

The snippet that worked as a teaser to go search this drama was from Kalos TV, "My game, My rules."
