this show had catched my attention from 1 year ago the time they announced about it reading its unprecedented plot that sounds so interesting and appealing to watch!!!! I actually wanted to try it as I like the huge age gap dramas of older woman/younger man and as I watched kim nam joo once in "queen of reversals" and really was like it is called queen in acting and portraying her role fantastically whatever it is and the same of cha eun woo I wanted to see him a new figure other than the usual handsome baby face actor casted in romantically role, but I was so flabbergasted of the chemistry of these two leads was insanely amazing portraying the huge amount of pain though that is not romantic but the acting was so realistic with high level performance!!!!

this is a journey of several mysteries that was unfolded one after other so wonderfully that anybody watching will not be able to evade any eye look away from it!!!! I binged watching 12 episodes in 4 days, the time I started watched this was before the last week airing so as the time was passing like in a blink of eye that it was pleasing me to the most as an unprecedented show cause I didn't skip any scene surprisingly as recently I am skipping while watching any korean drama but here differently the level of excitement is so high that I didn't feel it while watching any other korean drama!!!!

soo hyun is the character of wise and staid person that is the perfect lady in all meaning and successful wife but isn't lucky having such trashy husband who is pretending to love her but he is indeed a deceiving person and not compatible to be the ideal husband for the female lead that I would say it is a shame to have him as husband though living in the image of happy family but this one won't last forever as the evils are surrounding her everywhere...

soo hyun is not to blame to avenge for her son, it is the maternal instinct that pushed her to punish the culprit of her son who was acquitted wrongly and brazenly didn't apologized from her after she asked him several times at least to quench this fire of unjustice burning inside her regarding the law didn't rule for her favor but it was such a sad and heartbreaking moment when the rays of revenge was coming out from her eyes running over the culprit making him to be dead the same way he caused to her son...

the amount of pain and sufference soo hyun showed was satisfying to show what does it mean a mourned and grieved mother should be!!! I like soo hyun the smart and diligent woman who did everything to reveal all the hidden truth behind the death of her son and seon yul the mysterious guy who interfered in her life and getting intertwined with each other, she was following him all the way as being compassionate with him regarding he lived the same pain as her loosing the most closest person to his heart!!!! though it is not a romantic involvement but a noona drama with mystery and melodrama without a romance was something new I watched and being so attached with every moment I was watching this golden masterpiece drama!!!

soo hyun once all the miseries striked over her head at one time, being cheated by her huband was a heavy load to bear over everything she was suffering from and it was so amazing to make everybody guess about the mistresss who can be, even being jailed for 7 years, soo hyun was keeping her silence if it will relieve her for taking revenge for her son, taking advantage of her saying for her husband to break up with him and signing divorce paper was a motive for him to do this short mistake of cheating in a weakness feeling moment!!!

soo hyun should have divorced him the moment she was aware of the cheating matter and not burry it like it was told to her but I didn't like her indecissiveness about staying clinging over it till the end...

seon yul is the type of person who is doing dangerous tasks in the favor of the congressman who used him for his service as he took care of him after his father took him as a will for kim joon to be under his care, seon yul is seeking revenge of soo hyun and gradually made her being aware for the matter of cheating but when he discovered that the culprit is the common between the accident of his mother and the death of gun woo (soo hyun's son), he will be joining hands with her to bring down their real opponent and regretting doing that for soo hyun as scheming plots against her...

cha eun woo did a great job in acting for portraying the rude life of a person choosing to drop out from his medical studies to seek revenge from his murderer's father, he was so amazing showing the real tears of pain and sorrowness in a splendid ways, he was so different and unusual to see him in fighting scenes but this amazing skills in acting for any role he is given is so greatly conveyed!!!!

soo ho is the trushiest and abominable person ever seen as a cheating husband and a father who pretended to care about his son but not sufficient in my opinion, he is prioritizing his interest over anything and indeed he was dealing with the culprit of his son whom helped him to be a director and even submitted himself for him in order to not hurting his wife while the death of his kid was something he condoned it so easily!!!! surprisingly he reversed the equation of this misjudgement of him and indeed he was digging a hole to kim joon to make him fall in the trap of deceiving by cooperating with seon yul unexpectedly!!!

yoo ri though she did a big mistake for her sister but she at least regretted what she did despite all of that I didn't thought this lovely sister image she gave to turn into the one stabbed her!!!!

I liked the character of go eun the mother of soo hyun, she is such an adorable and lovely mother that anybody will admire a mother like her...

kim joon character was so convincing and though he is he villain but the actor was doing a great job in portraying the devil and homewrecker character manipulating all the leads the way he wanted...

the end was so satisfying as a masterpiece like that I was so pleased to watch such a high performance and fabulous acting!!!! I wished indeed to have some romance here but they ended to be healing friends and allies is not bad too as seon yul is ready to avenge for soo hyun and her son after knowing how cruel was his father... but also prefered if the leads staying in contact with each other and not being apart after being healing friends and allies...

this is a so highly rated drama that I recommend for everybody liking the mystery genre, this is about a realistic show deserving a high ratings so don't take in consideration the ratings of mdl as it is deserving the minimum of 9.5!!!! I liked the moment when seon yul blocked the way of a vase with his back to not hit soo hyun when she was volounteering at the nursing home of elderly and when seon yul hold the hand of soo hyun when she came to his mother funeral as he was surprised though hating each other but it was a motive to see her in another better way especially when she made him aware that his mother's death was intentional not by accident so these two injured souls cooperated to bring down their real opponent...

I liked too when at the trial of kim joon, at the witness seat seon yul confessed that though he wanted to avenge from her, soo hyun is the only one cared about him to live a proper life and having a complete meal that he didn't feel this caring from anybody before as living a rough life and the most important that the culprit took a fair ruling to be for life jailed was so greatly written as an end to cut the existence for more of his misdeeds...
