I had this drama in my PTW list for a long time for Song Il Guk (love this actor) and I finally pulled it out and watched it. It was a good drama with great romances and good action scenes. Only problem I found was it was a bit too long and the business side of the show got boring at times and the story dragged a bit in the middle (around episode 14-17). The beginning was great and I thought the final episodes were good too. Song Il Guk as Harry/Ju Ho stole the show - He was my favorite character (even if I am a little biased), his love was steadfast and he knew what was right and wrong - his love and care for his younger sister was admirable - a very sweet sibling pair. ^^ He and Maria knew each other when they were young. Through bumps and turns along each of their roads they meet again. Because of certain circumstances they both end up becoming lobbyists for two different people. They are constantly thrown in each others way & Harry always does his best to protect Maria. Maria goes off on a path of revenge, while Harry just wants to protect those around him. My favorite characters were Harry, Andy, Soo Ji, and then Maria (she did annoy me a little in the middle). The bad guys were ruthless and cold-hearted. and the supporting and side characters were all interesting or funny. The OST was really good, I loved every song and added them all to my playlist ^-^ My favorite song was "Unmyong/Destiny or Fate" by Im Tae Kyung ??? then "Nae Nunmuri Marulttaekkaji" by Tei ? and "Angel" by Kim Jo Han - there might be another ost but I don't have the name off hand. - They are all BEAUTIFUL though - it's good enough to watch just for the OST alone ??? Re-watch Value: not too high, I might re-watch this someday but I might not too (at least not for a long time) I do recommend it to anyone who likes action dramas or romance - or if you have seen the drama Swallow the Sun and liked it - they are very similar - if you liked one you should like the other too. :)
