This drama could have had high potential especially with such a unique story line. Good acting from the main cast to the supporting actors. I didnt expect anything less from Kim Nam-Gil's acting especially since I watched this after the Fiery Priest. I wont deny that I kept watching because of him. Sadly though there were episodes that were almost dragging and some scenes that didnt made any sense. How is it ok for a person in need to be pushed away so many times he almost ended up sleeping on the streets and even fed dog food? How did a famous cunning doctor like him suddenly became weak and lets himself be used by those in power? Why did the main characters didnt even say they loved each other not even once? Do the audience really didnt need to hear it? That made the romance somewhat lukewarm for me. The writers made their parting so heart wrenching yet the much awaited after-Joseon-war reunion so cold? I mean, how could they be so calm and not run into each others arms after being apart for sooo long and missing each other everyday? I liked that it was a happy ending but was disappointed that the scene didnt excude love and happiness. Maybe a kiss and some cheesy lines would have made a more lasting impression.
