Overall its worth watching for the BL scenes that were mostly well executed and very tender and touching, really the 2 male leads safe the series from falling down. Min/wan story starts well and progress well but somehow then it gets frustrating, Pan/Feh starts uninteresting as its very cliché save the fact than Pan is a Tom boy and Feh is a man, and the other gay couple, well they just don`t go anywhere... Acting was so so for most fo the character except for main couple and second couple who really did a great job. The story line is messy and there is a lot things without explanation

if you can watch the first 2 chapter spatially episode one where everything is messy and forced, you will end up with something to spend your time. but be aware the endings is as blant as they come, i get the feeling that this series ran out of budget towards the end that`s why you normally find such bad ending in Asian BL, if its not tooooo cliche its toooo sad, this one is way to cliche... and Wan and Apo decide to go study abroad at the same time? like really? couldn't they say something more interesting like Apo is joining another club or something that didn't requiere a year of the main couple to be apart and then reconnect like nothing ever happened? that was really disappointing ending, this series with all of its downfalls I think deserved a better ending, Apo character was so sweet and good hearted that i would have been very interesting to see him go thru some mild tragedy like loosing is ability to swing or inheriting a large empire and having to leave the club or something like that would have made a more interesting ending

It`s been a while since I`ve watch something like this, seriously. I didn`t think Korea could put anything better tan Warrior Baek Dong Soo but this definitely goes hand to hand, Korean Historical dramas have some magic to it that you don`t really get from other series and this is no exception.

Writting: I`m on episode 8 and I`m truly amazed with the writting and the plod, there seems to be no word in the dialog that is unnecessary or misplaced, they all fall in place beautifully, the romantic lines melt your hard, the dramatic parts really move you and all the tension between the characters you can really feel, i think this is where this series truly excels

Acting: acting is superb, specially since I'm not korean so I don't know if its a natura representation of how they are, but they can definitely transfer your emotions. I can relate to the characters and my favorite so far is the yakuza, something tells me he will end up sacrificing himself at the end, well executed.

Plod and storyline: I`ve seen a lot of people say is its slow and that first chapter is confusing, and well i agree that it can be, but not in a bad way as everything reveals its self as you are watching and in that sence i love it, as you are always looking for answers and thinking and then you get supprised as the story seems cleaver. I also like the character development although at episode 8 there still a lot i want to know about the main characters, but i think it contributes to the mystery.

Music and visual: stunning, its like you are watching a realistic paint from Miguel angelo, and Korea (if everthing was filmed there) its beautifully it really make you go there in this part i think is superior to Baek Dong Soo. and music is spot on, it complements the beautiful scenery without been overwhelming

overall I'll give a 9.5 up to episode 8. fully recommended if you are looking to see thru cinematography which require you to do some thinking and be patient as things start to unravel, not your american show where they pack a livetime in 40 minutes, Koreans seem to like to take their time to explain things and to create an ambient, that why they are so worth watching
