I came in with zero expectations when I started watching this show, but it ended with me having so much love and respect to it.

Admittedly, the first two episodes seemed slow for me. But as I continued watching, I couldn't helped but be sucked in the relationship of the main leads. What started as a relationship that's only a means to an end, developed into benefactress and backer, to a suprising friendship, then blossomed as lovers, and trusting partners.

The growth of almost all the characters, especially the main leads in the story carried the show. How they trusted and believed in each other is also one of the best parts of the show. There wasn't any third party romance in the story as one of the strong qualities of the main couple is that they learned to trust each other early on- which is a relief as love triangles are already so tiring to watch.

I also loved all the supporting characters and how they're all about supporting the main leads and their love for each other, while at the same time having their separate affairs as well. It was such a well written story that even if it was enveloped in political drama, I was able to enjoy it thoroughly.

Lastly, while I honestly wasn't able to feel the electric chemistry between the leads, they acted their roles so perfectly that as a viewer I couldn't help but root for their characters to have their happy ending. This is actually a huge deal for me; as a romance and chemistry bias viewer, I'm all about that. This show changed me. It made me realize that it isn't always all about chemistry; acting and storyline done right can still make a perfect drama, regardless of it.
