Ok... I decided that I had to write a review for this one... Being my favorite Drama of all time... And the best drama I've ever seen... And the most intriguing love story I've ever witnessed... I think you get the point.
Story: Ok, i must admit the first episode was... weird. Not bad at all but i found myself having a hard time following the what the fuckery that was going on, but i get it after having seen the drama, again, for the seven billionth time, but as soon the second episode started, i was hooked. And i don't mean just-watching-it-in-one-sitting hooked. I not only neglected almost 24 hours of sleep, forgot to eat 4 meals, got sitting soars on my butt AND lived without cola for the entirety of the 24 hours (i am an addict). I also missed an ice-cream eating party with three of my friends where we were supposed to eat 30 liters of ice cream. 30. Liters!!! I hope you know how devoted i am City Hunter.
Acting: Lee Min-Ho and Park Min-Young were already some of my favorite actors (Lee Min Ho in Personal Taste and Park Min Young in Sungkyunkwan Scandal) and i already knew that they were good, but HOLY CRAP were they good in City Hunter. Around episode 4 i had convinced myself that the characters they portrayed were absolutely real. And they were not the only ones who did a great job; The supporting cast were equally as good as the main. Especially Lee Jun-Hyuk (The Prosecutor), Kim Sang-Ho (The Ajusshi) and Kim Sang-Jung (the "Father") blew me away with their performances.
Music: The Music was really good, and they seemed to know just when to play it, for the scene to really affect you.
Rewatch value: I've already seen it like a billion times. I know all the lines. And I don't even speak Korean. Need I say anymore?
Overall: I loved it. It was extraordinary in a way I haven't seen in a drama or anywhere else for that matter. I recommend it to everybody! Everyone. Haven't watched it? Go Watch it! Have watched it! Go watch it again, you know you want to.
Sidenote: In Danish (I'm from Denmark) Lee Min-Ho's name literally means Lee... My Hoe... Yeah... just thought i would put it out there.
