Ok watch

Good acting, good attempt at trying to highlight an ongoing issue with waste management. But there were some huge holes in the script. Writers should consult real police to understand the LE operation. It would help make the show more realistic.
Spoiler: No detective allows a civilian to remain in a area where there may be possible evidence. There is now way when a suspect is being interviewed that a civilian is there as well. So many errors, in moving from night to day scenes. Seems as though the police force works around the clock and are always on duty when a crime occurs.

Action series

Great show lots of action and suspense, acting very good. A bit slow in the middle. Some good fighting scenes and some not so realistic car chases and bullet scenes.
If you are an action oriented person watch this series.
I usually watch a few episodes at a time, but this one popped in my Netflix preview and I clicked on it. After watching the first episode i was hooked as the story is intriguing. Did binge watch this series it's worth it.


Spoiler:
Where or when is second series, the cliffhanger at the end indicates a second season. With so many unanswered questions the second season is required.

I have watched 100's of Korean drama and it seems as though most of them can't end normally. This drama is no different. Too much flashbacks, too much music interruptions. Story started out very interesting but lost it from the middle onwards. Some key points, the mother's were given minimum air time, which mother doesn't visit their child in the hospital, took too long to identify the characters. In life when people break up for valid reasons they don't magically fall in love again. This drama tried to please the audience by creating a happy ending but it just doesn't fit the history between the two partners. Not worth watching. If writers need a hand to end a drama, I will gladly help out. Don't be fooled by who is acting in the dramas, as many do. the story is not believable from the midpoint. They should have made it more realistic, rather than a "fairly tale"

Ending gives the wrong message

This movie is really overrated. Lots of useless scenes and unnecessary dialogue, when there is dialogue. Half of the movie is silent and expects us to guess what is happening.

Spoiler Alert.
Although it may be an attempt to play down serial killers this is not the method of doing it. By not exactly identifying or proving the girl is dead the suspect is killed. That sends a very bad message to vigilantes that if they suspect thy can murder someone without evidence or proof. That's a very disturbing message from this movie.
It isn't worth watching and it's also very boring. Showing a lot of Taboo scenes and by that classifying the movie as "New Method".

Story is all over the place

I watched al of this series - 70 and while the story did have it moments of mystery and intrigue the overall writing was very poor. Good acting and scenes, costumes were amazing, Some good fight scenes but could have added more.

Spoiler:
Writers enough of this Kill me please king, it's so overdone that it is annoying and out of place sometimes. Yes i do understand Asian culture but every meeting with the Emperor ends in kill me i have done wrong.

Some of the stories, well most were never completed. Why did the mother have the two kids, only partially explained. What was the purpose of the Jinshi prince in the palace for so long. How could no one recognize Zhi Wei as a woman? Why and what was the purpose of locking away Yale? The prince didn't even ask when he was reunited with his mother.

And the big skip over the Prince of Wei; changes a palace order, kills his sister, kidnaps Yale and has her killed, tries to start a coup with false evidence and NONE of this is explained or sorted out in the show. He just goes crazy and all crimes are forgotten.

The end was expected, the king returning and the suicide i saw that coming, not every story has a happy ending.

This show has so much holes on the plot and unfinished stories that even the amazing scenery and costumes can't save it.

Average Kdrama

An attempt to identify the emotional drama of the 1%. While the show is not a mystery or thriller it does focus on a rather bizarre theme of revenge. Wow having money can afford you to step over others is about the plot of the show. Having friends with money can help as well.
If you don't expect too much then watch it. Setting is great costumes and scenarios do highlight the rich in society
Although there are some "aha" moments and the show does have good acting a revenge story just doesn't fit in perhaps throw in a bit of mystery and it will help to captivate the audience.

Could be better

A lot of good acting and costumes in this drama, The fight scenes were well done (although they never seemed to die no matter how many times stabbed or cut or cut with a sword. Good scenes of romance between the lead, the actress is ever so beautiful.
Spoiler:
Poorly written script, two friends fighting each other ok fine. But if your sister is held hostage instead of illogically putting yourself in danger rescue here and run away or at least hie her. would have made the story more believable.
Next it takes 8 1/2 episodes to explain the relationship between the inn owner and the beautiful lead actress. What's the purpose of the secrecy. How does lead actress end up with the future queen? When the sister gets killed, she runs into the path of the killers, most people would run away, Then the bodyguard stands and watches her getting attacks and does nothing while here brother struggles to save her. Could have been more realistic in most scenes and in the plot of the show and it would have been a better watch.

One of the most interesting intriguing and heartwarming dramas I have seen. It starts out very slowly, takes too long to introduce the characters so hang it there it worth it. This is a story that you just can't believe is happening. It keeps you engaged and interested throughout. Only one flaw in the ( a bit of a spoiler), it would have been more logical if the father was given a case of amnesia, within the story. Other than that the story is full of interest and is very engaging. I just can't believe that someone could be that unscrupulous.
Although it a bit dated it is worth watching as one of the best dramas, you won't be disappointed.

Just finished watching this drama, was dragging on a bit but was funny, sorrowful and unbelievable at times. Supposed to be based on a true story but I am not sure. It starts out a bit slow which I have found is the norm for Korean dramas. Had some characters that were not too believable in the drama but they were supporting cast. The daughter's role was very mature and intellectual. One part that I disliked totally was the "sleaze-bag" lawyer. He was a total con artist from the beginning.

Spoiler Alert:
The mystery was a total surprise at the end, although they didn't give the clue until half way through the final episode. I found the lawyer's role (male) to be very pathetic, although all the main lead friends were cheating on their husbands it's no reason for her to assume this role as well. The lawyer convinces other not to divorce but he insists the female lead divorce her husband. He had a conflict of interest at the very beginning. What a total loser character as he ends up with the lead female in the end. And automatically the daughter accepts. This could have been written better into the script, the female lead could have stayed single to operate her business and keep the relationship with the lawyer professional.
