Rating is off. There is no way this is top ranking show.
The opening episodes are outstanding—an easy 10/10. After that, the show declines quickly as logic gives way to melodrama and visual appeal. The female lead is perfectly cast and performs exactly as the role demands. The male lead is one of the weakest parts of the series: his acting is poor, and he never quite feels right for the character. The side characters, by contrast, are very well cast and performed.
The issue is not that all the fight scenes are good and all the drama is bad. It is that the two sides of the show do not work together. The action and the drama feel disconnected, with each one weakening the other instead of building momentum. Characters die instantly when the plot needs emotional shock, or survive impossible situations when the story wants to drag the drama further. That makes the stakes feel artificial and hurts the overall logic of the series. For me, that drops it to a 7/10.
