Story: Standard Korean melo. You get a lead that sacrifices everything for love and family; a lead who is a sceptic but romantic at heart; a lead who is the cause of all evil and a second female lead you will love to hate. Throw in the deaths of people who should not die and you get your standard Korean melo. Why did I watch this? I was bored and this drama does nothing to elevate my boredom. Got suckered in by all of those enthusiastic reviews on how good this drama was. I should have known better than to trust the reviews coz I have quite a picky taste in drama now (having watched decades of it!). Still waiting for the next best thing to appear. Truth be told, I fast forwarded a lot (basically watched Parts 1 and Parts 4 of each episode) and still I am able to follow the storyline and guess what is coming up next. Me thinks it's the curse of someone who had had watched far too many Asian dramas that hardly anything impresses me now. If you are fairly new to the Asian drama scene, you might find this drama interesting (compared to your everyday Hollywood fare).
Acting/Cast: Mature cast and experienced actors. No complains here.
Music: Standard Korean melo songs. Nothing outstanding that sticks to your mind after the final curtains are drawn.
Rewatch value: Not in my rewatch list. Can do without.
Overall: Watch in fast forward mode to past time when you are totally bored out of your mind! At least you get to see Ji Sung in action.I am being lenient by giving it a 7/10...call it a favour for Ji Sung.
