So...what was this series about again?
Revenge huh? The main plot is revenge yet what revenge did he accomplish? Lost the lives of all good people and the villains who deserve death are living to see another day. What a great revenge! So let's not even talk about the plot.
The remaining aspects are not good either.
Eun-nam, literally one of the worst written characters in history. She left her "love of life" and married another dude for stocks, without even telling him. And the fact that she has the audacity to squiggle back into Dong Ju's life after doing all that is infuriating. But as usual, FLs in kdramas face ZERO consequences for their actions regarding romance.
And Dong Ju...doormat of the century. After everything she did, he's still obviously head over heels for her...because she's the FL...how surprising. And not to mention, the fact that he forgave his 'father', who has NEVER been in his life, tried to kill him multiple times, shot him twice, and killed his mom. And yet as soon as they learn about being son and father it's all shits and giggles like who cares if you killed my mom or shot me twice it's all good because you're my biological daddy, let's go have dinner and make up immediately.
Two reasons this is getting a rating above 4/10. One, an open ending which is the best imo for this one. Two, the acting, especially Park Hyung Sik. I forgot I was watching a crappy series when I saw his intense acting. They were good actresses/actors, but you can only do so much with a sh!tty scrip.
