This is a drama of Kang Ma Roo and only him. This drama makes people suffer from compassion and adoration towards Kang Ma Roo played by Song Joong Ki. The combination of actor Song Joong Ki and personality of his character Kang Ma Roo is a killing match. Actually this drama is so bad and too good at the same time, from different points of view. Inspite of the low scores I gave to it, this drama is in the My favorite drama list. Although I admit that Song Joong Ki played his character mostly with the pocker face, he still delivers powerful emotions to me, I don't know how. May be because the pocker face is psychologically reasonable here: because when a person suffers from such hardships and still stay stubborn, he has to suppress his emotions and make himself unreceptive to shattering things. Life made Kang Ma Roo kinda lone wild animal, and Song Joon Ki excitingly expressed this his condition with his eyes - the way he glares. Kang Ma Roo is born nice, soft, loving and very smart guy, but one mistake ruined everything and forced him to become stubborn, strong, mature and pityless man, still nice and innocent at the same time though. And plus all that is with the look, voice and expressions of the actor Song Joong Ki. Seo Eun Gi is basically an interesting character too. Unlike other drama's female leads, Seo Eun Gi is a smart, clever, confident, fearless woman who doesn't trust anyone and able to bring down just with her words all the businessmen and politcians. And this person gives up all her arrogance only for Kang Ma Roo. Seems like her mind was blown instantly after knowing him. :) One more good thing is Lee Kwang Soo. He is just himself, the unique person, he somehow brightens every movie and drama with his sensual and funny behavior. This drama also has many beautifull viewes of nature, old houses and paths, good wounds makeup :) Well, the rest I can say - this drama is rather as bad as any soap opera. I think you the viers are already know this from the plot. There are amnesias, disguisting high society personalities, hunting for money-or-death, a-hero-protecting-his-girl and blah blah. Setting unrealistic, nonesense, stupidly tragic situations to make viewers addictive - is just the classic soap opera. I hate it so much. For the scores: The story. Does it mean the only story (script) itself or also the characters development? For 1) the story I give 0 (yes zero) as it's a classic soap opera trash, 2) the characters I'd give 5 as they are mostly intersting and often made me think about my place in this life. Cast and acting. As for me Song Joong Ki is perfect for his role. Moon Chae Won and Lee Kwang Soo were good. Others are nothing or bad for me. And I personally dislike Park Shi Yeon but I admit her acting was good. So overall it's 5. Music. Ost has the kind of songs that I hate (kinda crying singing). But as they make the right heartbreaking atmosphere, I give it 3/10, ok. Also one of th ost songs is sung my Song Joong Ki (I was pleasantly surprised). Rewatch value. Well, I rewatched it 3 times already, skipping the annoying parts. Inspite of all the annoying flaws, I guess I rewatched only because of Kang Ma Roo and sometimes Seo Eun Gi. Ah finally I definitelly recomment every one to watch this drama to feel the emotional roller coaster!
