Great action drama
It is really great action drama and the acting is great…specially the villains are sick! I prefer the second half of the drama where the atmosphere was more intense and the fighting sceen were crazy. Also you didn’t have change of background stories every five minites like In the first few episodes. I didn’t like how they changed the scenes by blacking the screen, I found it annoying.I love the ending.I hope season 2 is coming. I cannot wait to see fight between Jinman and Bale.

It is not engaging at all
Well I was expecting much more from this drama. There is no real story of developing feelings between main leads as all of the sudden they are in love .The production was really good but I have to say it was boring and 12 episodes were too many. It is real shame as it had so much potential. I could not connect to any characters at all.

Money rules the world....what people do for money/what people do with money
It is a great drama with a heartbreaking story. It makes you think about the world we live in and how people are barely surviving while the powerful and wealthy are taking advantage of it. The saying is right: "Money rules the world." You don't really know what life people are living behind closed doors.The story is based on real events, and the production team and screenwriter did a fantastic job in their research, even working as a driver for a call girl to tell the story accurately. Well, it is not happening only in Korea but all over the world, but ordinary people have no chance to beat them.
The acting was superb, especially Chang Wook and Bibi. I was so happy to see them together again.
For me, the first half of the drama was perfect, as the second half's storyline was not as good. Also, Dongu became very annoying as he suddenly started to care because his daughter became one of them. They should not have made Gil Ho immortal, as it takes away realism. The fighting scenes were great and very realistic. I loved the Gil Ho knife work. It's definitely a great fast-paced short thriller.

Good Watch, But Didn't Blow Me Away
This drama was actually a nice surprise! The main story was really engaging, even though those violent scenes were kind of rough to get through sometimes.My main issue was the pacing. Even though the show only has eight episodes, it felt super drawn out at times. I kept checking the clock, waiting for the episode to wrap up! The main idea behind the show was solid, but something just felt a bit bland in the way they delivered it, and I never totally got lost in the story.
The absolute highlight of the whole series was definitely the friendship between the central trio. Their bond was fantastic, and it really carried all the emotional weight—I just wish they had explored their relationship and bond more instead of wasting time on unnecessary plot. Plus, Jin So Baek was my favorite character—they were a definite bright spot! So Nee's incredible transformation for the role was absolutely mesmerizing. We also have to praise Seung Jo; the difference between his two characters was amazing, and he played both roles brilliantly. I was also really happy with the satisfying ending, where everyone got what they deserved.
Overall, it's a competent show and a good watch, but honestly, it didn't leave a huge impression on me.

Perfect emotional drama...be prepared as you will cry a lot!!!
I love it so much! It's a beautiful story with a great cast and plot that makes you binge-watch the drama in one go. The first half made me laugh, and the second half made me cry (I have never cried so much). I love their teenage love story, which was beautifully written, and you slowly get to know what happened. The length of the drama is just perfect. Until the end, I didn't know what the ending would be. I was hoping for a miracle ending, but the actual ending was even sadder, knowing that... I will not spoil the end.Finally, a proper emotional drama that I have seen in a while. It's a shame that it is not more popular, and the rating should be much higher.
This drama will stay in my memory for a very long time.

Amazing Story Carried by Soulful Performances
What makes Our Movie an exceptional drama is the masterful performance of Namkoong Min. For me, he is the most talented actor, and he never fails to impress. While the plot is straightforward, it is made profoundly powerful by the compelling performances of the cast. Namkoong Min and Yeo Been are the absolute anchors of this story, and they both deliver truly phenomenal work.Despite its slow and deliberate pace, the drama’s stunning production and cinematography kept me completely captivated, allowing me to watch the entire series in one sitting. I was immediately drawn into their early interactions, watching the gradual, believable development of his feelings for her.
The second half is a true tearjerker. Even with the tragic ending hanging over the story from the beginning, the hope you feel for the characters never fades. What I loved most about this show is the purity of their romance. Free from the usual villains and tired love triangles, the drama allows the audience to fully invest in the main characters' growth and relationship without distraction. It was also a beautiful touch to see the people around Lee Da Eum transform for the better, a testament to the show's focus on character development.

The acting is fenomenal but not fully developed drama.
I was so looking towards the Tyrant as Seon Ho is one of my favorite actors. I think it would be better if they stick to the plan and made a movie as it is too sort for a drama and it did not fully developed the storyline. To be honest if they made a proper long drama it would be amazing as it has interesting storyline and the cast is on fire.The acting is just fenomenal!
It is shame that they did not take a time and properly edited the screens as it could be great movie.
Also I don't really see the point to add English to the drama.
For me it is waisted potential.

What a rollercoaster of emotions!
what a rollercoaster of emotions! I love journey of their love story and how the families got together. To be honest I do not understand why there is so many negative comments.The production,OTS and ascting is great. Soo Hyun is awesome as always.
It is a great drama. I like the storyline and even the episodes are really long I did not get bored. But I have to say towards the end the plot became a little bit enoying as I think they should concentrate more on their relationship than the ongoing revenge and the villain went totaly crazy, I think that was a little bit too much. And they sorted everything in last 5 minutes so we did not enjoy the happiness of our couple.
Overall it is a great drama.

disappointed
Well, the drama is very slow pace and it gets quite boring. It has high rating so I was expecting much more from it but I was disappointed. It only has 10 episodes but it felt like never ending story.The only thing I liked is the acting and OST. Its shame as the story was good if they just executed in better way.

love Wei wei and Chi Chwng relationship...but producing could have been better.
When I watched the first episode, I wasn't sold. The dabbing is terrible, but after a while, you will get used to it. Also, the production and editing are not great. The way they change scenes... sometimes I was lost, like, "What just happened?" But despite that, I was totally in love with them. I was so excited for the new episode.I love how Wei Wei is slowly falling in love with Chi Cheng and their bridging. The storyline is great. And I am not surprised, as it's based on the novel of the autor Chai Ji Dan as the drama, Stay with Me, which is absolutely 100/10. To be honest, the Revenged love cannot compare to it in every aspect, maybe because they were on a tight budget and I think if the drama was produced in China, it would be much better quality, but I get that it could not have been because of the censorship.
The last episode felt very rushed, although I loved their moments together.

Realistic drama of hardships through the life - not a fairytale
Beautiful story of O Ae Sun and Gwan Sik, who love each other dearly and do everything for their family. The cinematography and acting are amazing.The storytelling is awesome, and I love how they managed to switch between the past and present storylines. It is perfect. It is so hard to watch as their life was/is so hard, and all the hardships they endure. Even with sixteen long episodes, it is easy to watch, and you do not get bored. I was hooked from the beginning and could not stop watching it. To be honest, I did not like IU's character at the beginning at all; she was screaming and hysterically crying all the time. I am glad I stuck with it as it is a great drama, but be prepared as it is not a typical fairytale but a realistic portrayal family's hardships.
I think I need to watch something light and happy now.

waste of time... I was expecting much more
I am really disappointed. I was so looking forward to this drama as Woo Shik is one of my favorite actors. It's so boring. I forced myself to finish it as I had no other option because I watched it on the flight.Also, the story is very realistic, but it seems absurd that he did not even text her about what was happening, and the lack of communication is frustrating. I hoped it would get better after a few more episodes, but no. Ten episodes never felt so long.
The brothers' story was very sad to watch, but that is it. I did not care about the main couple, and the chemistry was missing. To be honest, it was a wasted 10 hours.

Fast paced drama full of action and intrigues.
It's a fast-paced historical drama based on real events. It all happens in 24 hours, so there is a lot of action, plotting, and tactics. It's interesting to see how the events are going to turn out as life beside palace walls is a matter of life or death. I like that the queen is a great tactician and thinks a few steps ahead.I did not mind the sexual scenes as they fit well in the drama. They could make more episodes to fully develop the characters. The acting was great, except for Jong Seon, as she does not fit in the drama. I can't help but feel her expression is just ruining the experience for me. Chang Woo and Soo Hyuk did a great job portraying the king and the crazy prince.
Apart from that, I really enjoyed the drama. It was a great watch, but I don't like that it ended at the best part. And I am not sure if we are getting a season 2.

it is a dark drama but you will love it!
I bridged the drama over two days as I could not stop watching it. The cinematography and acting are amazing. To be honest, Jae Wook was born to play i daesang; it suits him perfectly. I love the storyline and how slowly we are getting to the truth. Not a single episode was boring. The chemistry between the leads is awesome! I love the bond Jae I and Hong Rang had. Their eyes speak for themselves. The fighting scenes were great as well. It was a real surprise to see the real villain, as he had my blood boiling every time he appeared. I will not say more to avoid spoilers.The OST is great, so fitting to the drama. It is not a typical drama; it is dark, and with each episode, there is more suffering, but it is a beautiful story of two people who try to protect each other. The last episode was very emotional.
