Lobbyist (2007)

If your someone that likes to watch romantic k-dramas with lots of plot twists and evil schemes. Then you have found the right Drama. Lobbyist in a nut-shell is a romance drama that's set with each character trying to be recognized as the dominant arms dealer. Although the story is set around the arms trade, there is going to be love between the characters, evil schemes by the antagonists, and etc.

Some things that I liked:

- Each character is a lobbyist and it was great to see how the drama was able to connect the characters with each other and provide a very detailed background story

- Since the story is set around the arms trade there are going to be many guns and fight scenes, however they fit there part in the drama so you don't feel like its just a war drama

Some things that i hated:

- Initially, this drama will give you a lengthy amount of information on the main character. However this pushes back your impression of the drama and makes you bored right of the bat(but keep watching!!)

- Once you have finished watching this drama then your done. It's a one-time watch drama.(You'll understand..)



However with all that being said, its something that strikes away from the typical k-drama and provides a new flavor. If your someone that wants to try something new and

different then this is one Drama that you should try ^.^

A lot of things in this drama made no sense and I was often left wondering "How the heck did that happen?" and "What the heck happened during those years?"

Indeed, a lot of time lapses in order to not answer such questions as "How did a wounded man escape terrorists on a desert and how did he get home?" And then "Wait, Korean man on a desert, terrorists? What?"

But you guys, I loved the characters (except the woman). I loved the main guy, his friends and all the scheming politicians, I loved them all. Because they felt real. I loved the fast paced storytelling in its all ridiculousness. I even loved the ending of which I am still not sure of. Did it happen or not?

There is something about this drama I can't describe. Maybe because it reminds me of good old days, of All In (I mean the same screenwriter and all). Lobbyist is like a little cousin on the epic example of revenge, political plotting, from rags to decent living, love never dies. There is the feel many dramas simply lack, what makes you watch one episode after another. A good drama about ambitions, revenge, plotting. This is a good replacement if you think All In or Sand Glass are too old and if you are yearning for a lot of action and strong love story.

I had this drama in my PTW list for a long time for Song Il Guk (love this actor) and I finally pulled it out and watched it. It was a good drama with great romances and good action scenes. Only problem I found was it was a bit too long and the business side of the show got boring at times and the story dragged a bit in the middle (around episode 14-17). The beginning was great and I thought the final episodes were good too.

Song Il Guk as Harry/Ju Ho stole the show - He was my favorite character (even if I am a little biased), his love was steadfast and he knew what was right and wrong - his love and care for his younger sister was admirable - a very sweet sibling pair. ^^ He and Maria knew each other when they were young. Through bumps and turns along each of their roads they meet again. Because of certain circumstances they both end up becoming lobbyists for two different people. They are constantly thrown in each others way & Harry always does his best to protect Maria. Maria goes off on a path of revenge, while Harry just wants to protect those around him. My favorite characters were Harry, Andy, Soo Ji, and then Maria (she did annoy me a little in the middle). The bad guys were ruthless and cold-hearted. and the supporting and side characters were all interesting or funny.

The OST was really good, I loved every song and added them all to my playlist ^-^ My favorite song was "Unmyong/Destiny or Fate" by Im Tae Kyung ??? then "Nae Nunmuri Marulttaekkaji" by Tei ? and "Angel" by Kim Jo Han - there might be another ost but I don't have the name off hand. - They are all BEAUTIFUL though - it's good enough to watch just for the OST alone ???

Re-watch Value: not too high, I might re-watch this someday but I might not too (at least not for a long time)

I do recommend it to anyone who likes action dramas or romance - or if you have seen the drama Swallow the Sun and liked it - they are very similar - if you liked one you should like the other too. :)
