It's a dog-eat-dog world so don't go into the show expecting fluff material
This was simply chaos -but in a good way. It's set in a dog-eat-dog world so when going into the drama chaos is just what you should expect. There ware betrayals, tears, avenging, friendship, drugs, blood and so much more. I'm usually not a fan of dramas that tend to get dirty like this one but the show also managed to have a sort of humane side to it which in the end made me want to give it an 8.5.
The driving force was definitely the characters. That's probably because most of them were always treading along the lines of good and evil and as it goes the most interesting characters are always those that have a shade of gray to them. However, I must say that the standout of this show was definitely Lee Jin Sook . Ugh she was just perfect! She had just the right amount of badass, compassion and charisma that it's impossible to not to fall for her. Definitely going into my list of Top Female Leads. And not to mention her sismance with Yoon Soo Min was EVERYTHING. I came to watch this show for the bromance but looks like I stayed for the womance XD. Either way I'd like to give the cast a standing ovation because they made each and every moment seem so real, to the point where I do have some difficulty trying to remind myself that its just acting.
If there's something that I was disappointed though it was definitely about how the romance was handled in the drama. IT WASN'T ENOUGH !The leads did have their moments together though and sure did love each other but I guess i just wanted to see them on screen a lot more because fucking hell Nam Gyuri and Jung Kyung Ho have such crazy chemistry, and so I'm hoping they will do a melo romance drama together one day (I'm sorry Sooyoung! xD)
This wasn't an easy watch. It wasn't until episode 6 that I became full invested. Plots like this are usually portrayed in movies rather than dramas and I get why -it can get a little tiring sometimes. But as I said the characters are the best thing about this show and even though you sometimes would have no idea who to root for that feeling of indecisiveness is probably what will get you addicted and want to stay till the very end.
