I wish i could make a ranting video like Avenuex's.....do not waste your time!

I actually watched all 40 episodes without skipping any scene, i wish i had...

What i liked:

-The main lead couple acting was great, i wish Gong Jun had choosen a better project though, he hasn't been in anything really important since WOH...i hope he gets some nice and interesting projects in the future...
- The fighting spirit of the female lead (That actually kept me watching).

What i disliked (i will just list some, because if i have to write down everything there wouldn't be enough space):

- The second female lead guyssss, like no, she is a big no! if you ever meet someone like this in real life, please get away from that person, you deserve better, and so her love story was kind of disturbing to watch. And it is the main reason why i am rating this drama this low, We are in 2023 and for god sake, this type of romance (if we can even call it romance....) shouldn't exist anymore, please writers , please!!!
- Since the main leads are very intelligent people, so many things could have been done better, like intelligent people do in real life, but of course we are watching a C-drama, it wouldn't be one whithout all those cliches, right?

This drama could have been shorter, there were so many uninteresting scenes that could have been cut out. ...
Till episode 30, i was actually going for an 8/10, but the last part really had me disgusted. I will not recommend this drama, it's nothing new, full of cliches and nonsenses (yes i can't get over the mess of the second lead couple) for me it's a 6/10.

Give it back to me ..........i mean the time i spent watching this drama!

Soooo! this drama.... i'm usually the type to drop a drama if not interested after the first 2 episodes at most. But since people kept saying that it would get better and i was also curious about the story, i kept watching.... BAD IDEA, REALLY BAD IDEA..

The first 15 episodes were boring as hell, i will also say this is the first time and also the last time i take a WHOLE MONTH to watch a drama, knowing that i was binge-watching it.
The second part was better, but the PLOT-HOLES guysssss! We people are not stupid, we actually have brains and think a lot, so many things didn't make sense, and the cliff hanger at the end...., like i could tell something like this would happen, and they should have able to see this coming, since there were a lot of scheming from both sides, i will stop ranting here....

The main couple was kind of mehh, i will not really remember their CP. But the second lead's couple actually had some nice chemistry, i hoped they actually got a nice closure, but again, if the main couple didn't get it, i guess it would have been too much to hope for the second lead's couple to have one lol.

Do i recommend this drama? ...No i don't! because weighting the pros and cons, i think i could have watched a better drama, or even more dramas, and now i can't get back the time i spent watching it. For me a 6.5/10, and i'm being nice lol

Incompleted

This drama is not bad, i will even say for a low budget drama it is really good, i liked the actors and actress and the chemistry they had, the cinematography was not bad either, the way they shoot it was interesting, good job!
i really hope they get a bigger budget for they really deserve it.

So! you are now asking yourself why i am rating it a 7/10 if i liked the acting that much, well it's because of the story line, i'm sorry no matter how much i liked the couples and their chemistry, i still can't wrap my finger about how they managed to get that happy ending , not that i didn't like it (i am a sucker for stories with happy endings), i just can't understand it. It seems like some pieces of the puzzle are missing .

overall it's a 7/10 for me , i would not rewatch it and i am not sure about recommending it to anyone; but if you are in for a romantic story whitout much logic to it then this drama may be a good watch for you.

What a ride!

This drama is based on historical facts, so i was not totally new to the story (aka six flying dragons..).

But the acting guys!! That is mainly what makes me rate this drama this high, considering that i would not rewatch it (usually the higher i rate a drama the higher is the rewatch value).
The bromance was epic, but morever JANG HYUK acting, he was really born to be an actor, sooo talented. I hated his character but i could never deny how much CHARISMA he brought to this controversial character.

This drama was Great, the ending was also realistic. Let's all have a meaningful and good life, is being powerful that important ? In actual facts Yi Bang Won died at 54, was it really worth it?

A Gem, don't miss it!

The story was so engaging , it was a little bit classic towards the end but nevertheless enjoyable.

The characters: every character was well developed, so you kind of understand where they come from and maybe from there you can somehow understand their behaviour, it was nice to watch them have a proper closure, there were not just mere fillers.

THE MAIN LEADS GUYSSSS!!! THE CHEMISTRY WAS WAOUH! THE KISSES !!!! like it has been two years or maybe three that i watched a drama that gave me so much butterflies.

For me it's a 9,5/10, and yes i did rewatch some episodes . I really enjoyed the process of them falling for each other, i liked the chemistry, the way they were flirting, it was just beautiful. If you are looking for a realistic drama, with a mature and beautiful romance this drama is for you. I recommend it!

Do not miss this gem!

This drama is not your typical drama. When it comes to topics this important in the society, i'm always cautious about it. But since i liked the first season i guessed i would like the second one and i wasn't wrong.

Each and every episode was important, a powerful story, a sad story , much more because part of it is true, real people in real life have actually suffered these abuses and that was the scary part.

The acting was fantastic, i mean Jung Hae In was phenomenal in this, i have loved him since his drama "one spring night" and it was an absolute delight to watch him in this one too, it's always nice to watch a versatile actor. Son Suk Ku i noticed him in " my liberation notes" and i was impressed! i am looking forward his next projects. Unfortunately i can't write about each and every actor, they all did a very good job.

If you are looking for a down to earth drama, with realistic acting, and heartbreaking stories and maybe a ray of hope, this drama is for you.! A 9/10 for me, i recommend it.

A classic rom-com drama, not bad but non that remarkable either....

If you are up for a feel-good drama, with good looking people falling in love , this drama is for you!
I was actually looking for this type of drama afer watching "revenant" lol, i guess i needed some romance to heal my heart lol.

The story: i get that it is a light - hearted drama, but i kind of wanted the male lead to be less lazy in the first 10 episodes, i wish the writers gave his character more dept. Some parts of the script didn't make sense though, it felt less realistic .And some important society issues were actually brushed out with comedy ; laughing it out wasn't on my point of view the best way to handle it.

Acting department: i liked Yoona in this one! i will definitely check out her other dramas.

i wouldn't rewatch this drama , and overall it wasn't that bad, i didn't skip or fast-forwarded any scene, so i will give it an 8/10.

Could have been better!

So, the story was kind of cute, i expected way moore from this drama, i only managed to finish it, because i fast-forwarded, and it's actually the first time i do so, ..
I don't recommend, there are so many beautiful drama out there, don't waste your time on this one.
The acting was so so, so many plot-holes,...
I mainly finished it because i was interested in the romance, but even that was poorly executed.
The female lead always had the same expressions like smirking or whatever (some crying scenes were soo cringe..), and the male lead was acting like a wooden piece lol, zero emotions. What a waste of time, geez!
i hope the rating will go down, it really doesn't deserve.

impressive, worth the watch!

The acting was really top notch, like Yoo Ji Tae actually builded up for this role, i'm really impressed , like wow , what a transformation!!
All the protagonists did a really good job, i really appreciated Nam joo hyuk 's acting here, he did improved throughout the years.
Since he is enlisting soon or maybe he has already enlisted, we may not had a second season that soon.
I enjoyed the watch, it wasn't boring.
I was rooting for the "vigilante" lol. I get where he came from, and yes at the end of the day it actually seems like the bad guys win.
9/10 because it was an easy watch, and yes i want to boost the ratings on this one lol!

To be a good mother is not that easy....

I really liked the storyline of this drama. It made me reconsider my relationshipp with my own mother, it made me think about how much we children often forget about all the sacrifices our parents made for us... In today 's world, it is really not easy to raise a child, to give him proper eductaion not just instruction.
Parents are not perfect, they were not born parents, they learn along the way, they make mistakes, everybody makes mistakes, most important we need to acknowledge our mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

I loved the courage of the mother, the warmth of the villagers, the unconditionnal love between two lovers....
And last take home message, at least for me, to archieve revenge is not an easy task, are we really ready to deceive or leave behind our loved ones just to archieve justice? was it worth it? maybe yes, or maybe no.....

I actually struggled to finish this drama, i got bored somehow in the middle and i had to forced myself to finish it, they were also some unecessary characters that could have easily been taken out without it affecting the drama, hence the 8/10.

Great show.... but somehow incompleted!

Sooo, this drama was nice, i mean the first half of this drama was excellent, the second half was less impressive....by trying to do too many things , the drama kind of lost his main purpose...

i really much liked the chairman's daughter and director Park couple, they added the spiciness to this drama, i'm always for kisses and whatever in a couple, but in this case i really much appreciated the quiet and playful type of love, the chemistry was there.

I hope the writer had given us more inside in the main character life, there were so many unfinished things, like what about her "love interest"? how did she deal with her personal issues (health and family)?

Some plot line were also very unecessary (the prosecutor line or whatever could have easily been cut out, it wouldn't have changed anything in this drama).

Overall i liked this drama and i recommend it. It is always nice to see a well done drama centered on working women thriving for power and doing it the right way, i give this drama an 8.5/10.

Kim nam Gil does not dissapoint!

This drama actually keeps his promise, there were no subplots or whatever writers always use to drag the drama. And knowing that the drama was based on a true story it was really well executed, all the cast did a great job at portraying their characters.

It's true that it was slow and somehow predictable, but since this is based on a true story, i kind of expected it. Because in real life it is not so easy to solve a crime case and to be a profiler at the time was not something common.

So i will give this drama an 8.5/10, and i totally recommend it, though it is not the kind of drama i would rewatch lol.
