Suspend reality and let yourself soar.

I had started this a couple years ago when it first came out, but never got to finish it. Going back now to watch it, the series stuck with me even in the first 6 episodes because I remembered so much, which to me is always a good sign.

I don't typically care much about music in a drama, but I actually really enjoyed it here. There was intensity when it needed to be there, and softness in other points. The music set the tone in a way that often doesn't happen for me. And of course, I love an over-the-top storyline, and can you really get more over the top than a messy family and the mafia?

But truthfully, what really sold this show for me was the support characters. Yes, the main couples and actors were lovely, but the supports just added so much to the show. Chan, the head bodyguard, despite having very little context or story, still gave such a strong character that I felt a connection to him. Then you have Boss, who I initially had a strong dislike for (as they wanted me to, I'm sure), but the character redemption was fabulous. Pair that with other characters such as Erika, Tankhun, and Arm. The cast created such a special story that made it worth so much more for me than just the title couple. And while I am considering Vegas a main, he isn't listed as such, but the way they took you on a rollercoaster with him was wild. He wins for most traumatized character by far, even without them showing you everything (which doesn't excuse his actions, mind you).

Finally, I have to give a mention to the final episode. The series had action sprinkled throughout, but then episode 14 hit and you got punched in the face with it and I loved that. It was everything it needed to be, except I am in agony over going back and forth about Korn.

Needless to say, enjoyable and one I would rewatch again.
