What can I say, I absolutely LOVED the characters and casting in this drama. Each one has their own unique persona and backgrounds, and the way they interact and develop with each other was very well done. This drama had some great humor in it, but also was very serious and heavy at times. You really felt the highs and lows of the characters. Convincing acting by both lead and supporting actors and actresses. I also love that this drama had a definite plot and story line to it, other than just romance. The politics and action, all pulled you into the characters and story really well. I hesitate in watching some of the period dramas, but this one was very entertaining in how they infused modern-day humor into it. Highly recommend if you like action, love interesting characters, and enjoy more than just a point A to B love story.
