I would have given this show a 10 if it wasn't for the romance that skewed the ending. The plot is great and the actors are all amazing to the point where you very clearly see each of their characters' flaws and come to dislike each of them. The main lead (and his father) were the only exceptions for that. The Jangga family had some powerful villainous acting and I looked forward to seeing them every week. The only issue I have is with the romance. This is one of those shows that didn't need romance, but unfortunately shows with 0 romance don't seem to exist anymore (or ever??). Even if the the chemistry between the leads was absolutely necessary, it happened wayy too quickly for anyone's liking. It was almost like PSJ did a complete 180. Now obviously they tried to give parts early on showing that he was warming up to her but I don't think they were not strong enough to warrant such a change in feelings. If the director had gone for the "I need you" thing more than the "I suddenly love you" thing this wouldn't have ended with a slightly sour taste in my mouth. However, the story itself is good enough of a reason to watch this show!
