Needle In A Haystack of Mediocrity
Luckily for me this was the first republican era Cdrama I tried, as well as the first cdrama i was able to complete. Underrated isn’t enough to truly praise this drama.
You’re thrown back into an extremely detailed, gritty, yet beautiful time period world design that amazes you the more time you invest in its little details around every corner, posters, costumes,buildings, offices, you name it. The production quality is in short, next level.
Along with it’s stunning production you’re also given a great cast with a compelling story and scripts that brings these characters to life in full. You’re not thrown out of immersion for even a second. The realistic style of pacing this drama decided to take in terms of each character connection to one another is the bread and butter. You can’t help but to acknowledge and praise this show for not tossing everybody together in the first episode or 2 like 99% dramas does. The interactions are believable along with the reunions.
The writing is airtight, meaning little to no room for improvement. The development of the ML is truly a high quality sight one can only behold in very few series to date. The strong characteristics of each lead and supporting roles constantly reminds you that you are to recognize these characters as real seperate individuals in a story, not single layered background tools for progressing the plot. If one goes over a plan to later put into action, it’s up to their level of competence of pulling it off or failing. If one gets into a tough predicament, it’s up to how their own thinking works that could rather get them out of it or even deeper in. Something many dramas don’t bother putting the effort into.
After stumbling across this work of art, I’ve yet to find any drama in its genre close to this level of overall quality. Everything it provides, it executes profoundly. If the hundreds of republican era and espionage dramas were to be thrown at each other in countless comparisons and contrasts. This series stands among the top easily. A soon to be classic that’ll be appreciated more down the line when receiving more recognition.
