Aigo! I've been stolen as well

What a wonderful journey this drama was! I was not expecting to like it this much, but this story is so incredibly well crafted from beginning to end. The characters are fantastic and every single actor and actress do them justice. The music is hypnotic and it fits this story so well. Every so often in these types of stories the music feels too modern and out of place, this is not the case with Rebel. The music is a character of it's own and you'll find yourself enchanted to those melodies in critical points of the story.

I will say something for the drama, the first ten episodes are mostly about the MC's father. It is a wonderful story that we need to know before watching the main part of the story, but it does take a bit to get going. So keep that in mind when you start this drama. The background story is very interesting and builds up the tension for the sure pay off you will get by the end, especially to set up the villains. But you do have to be a little bit patient with this drama. It's not slow by any means but there's a ton of backstory.

That being said everything worked perfectly. The acting, the characters, the story, the resolution. This drama is full of moments of satisfaction and moments of tension and false victories that will have you feeling frustrated and excited at the same time. The acting and character writing are out of this world, you genuinly feel for everyone on screen at one point or another. The villains even made me feel sorry for them at one point, and they're terrible people.

Seriously, beautiful work of art. I would totally recommed if you like epic adventure, found family, bromance and a little bit of violence.
