A unique K-drama with action, romance and tragedy!
Like most Kdramas I found that this one started strong but as always dropped off towards the end.
To sum it up, the positives are that it has deep, complex characters that are neither evil or good. This makes it really interesting. It also has amazing action scenes accompanied by epic music and nail-biting cliffhangers. Also the romance, although criticised, is very sweet. The acting, especially of the two MLs is extremely good.
The negatives; a lot of repetition, the drama could've been a good 5 episodes shorter. Whilst I understood why Mok Dan died, I think the last episode ended too ubruptly to really feel it. I also think Shunji's death was anticlimactic, they missed the opportunity to really add some drama to it in my opinion.
Overall it's definitely worth a watch, I just feel as if it was missing something to really to make it stand out in my mind as one of the best kdramas which is a shame since it definitely had the potential to!
