I would absolutely rewatch this!!

I like films and tv shows that have a background or topic that is based on topics that affect everyone in real life, so this is definitely a bonus watching this tv series!! After all mostly you don’t have that much extraordinary happenings or out of this world romance in your life. (Those can be good to watch sometimes, but they never affect me as much.)

The main character and his colleagues develop so much. You get to see flash backs in time bit by bit with the episodes.

I liked the difficult topics - for example career changes, social issues, bullying, corruption - mixed with the particular humour of this show.

I’m not from Korea so the work place drama side was very interesting to watch!!

Of course some things are universal about bosses and subordinates… (my area of of work is quite hierarchical as well with an extremely long training pathway and lots of trappings along the way so I can empathise for sure…) also and you really feel for the characters.

Then there is the aspect of leaving your dream career and how you deal with this in your life. How you are deeply affected by it and how it can destroy you or make you stronger.

I did also enjoy the soundtrack in this and I’ve actually listened to it quite a bit after finishing the series.

Finally, this reminded me of when I tried to learn Go when I was about 18 or 19 years old… incredibly hard!!
