This was an amazing drama!!! and I almost passed it up! I intended to watch it for Taecyeon but after seeing the first episode (where it was really heavy in the politics) *I'm not a political fan usually* I put off watching it until this year (again for Taecyeon) *Thank you Taecyeon for being in this drama or I might have passed up a really great gem!* So even if you're like me and don't usually like political dramas - believe me this one isn't to be missed! The writing, directing, acting, ost everything is top notch! It's a serious drama (b/c it is about politics) but it's also funny and warm-hearted <3

Cast: Jung Jae Young plays Jin Sang Pil a honest good hearted man who speaks out (and loudly too) when he doesn't like something or when he's trying to get his ideas across - at first he comes off as ignorant but you soon start being amazed with what he is saying - there were many times that my face looked like In Kyung's - I'd go from "oh brother, he's not listening again" to "wow, what he is saying is really true and it hits home!" LOL - a brilliant actor indeed! I applauded him and admired him - He is a character I respect!
Song Yoon Ah plays Choi In Kyung a person cast aside by her trusted sunbae & becoming an aide by pressure to Jin Sang Pil (a complete novice in the political field) She at first doesn't consider him as anything but a hick but slowly she opens up to him and admires him & completely supports him - the best "aide" you could ever ask for! First time I've ever loved a female character so much! She was absolutely awesome!!! A woman to be admired <3 I also looked forward to her facial expressions! They were PRICELESS!!! :P
Ok Taecyeon plays Bae/Kim Gyu Hwan the son of Bae Dal Soo (a friend & co-worker of Jin Sang Pil) - misunderstandings underway, he decides to work for Sang Pil in order to enact revenge - little does he know that he will come to admire this man himself ^_^ His role is very minor compared to the 2 leads but I really enjoyed him in this drama <3
I won't take time to go over any more characters/actors but they all played their roles exceptionally well :) They could either make you admire them or become disgusted by them.

OST: I only remember instrumentals but I loved them - especially one when something big was about to happen, it was fast tempo and I swear I've heard it before :D

I will definitely re-watch this drama when I find time. I didn't want this one to end while I was watching it! and I would recommend it to even those who aren't highly fond of political dramas!

Had held off this for a long time due to the low ratings .Finally, started this as had liked Song Yoon Ah In The K2 (more than the actual female lead!) and gave it a go

You have to see the show to believe it's impact.The Journey of the lead character Jin Sang Pil (played by Jung Jae Young with utmost sincerity) from a welder to a National assembly man is inspirational all the way .You become invested in his struggle to survive in the assembly and all the characters (even the minor ones) leave an impact..Exceptionally well written and moving scenes and beautiful moving speeches from JSP at crucial times make this an utterly memorable show

If you like well written shows with a great underdog story performed with a lot of heart ,go for it..

I have seen Daemul and found it impressive-this moved me a lot more..The story is so good

How you portrayed an evil to good man by victim playing

ML is evil demon but he will play good man
he has whore right beside him and wife and daughter who are never got any screen time because he is busy with whore
and a cocksucker son of his former murder


our ml is having an affair openly on national TV and Korean are all ready to suck his Micro penis
Director went to glorify our male lead into making him SUPERMAN Ugliest superman ever,
director should have found some balance and should have known that he has wife and child but he was so busy shooting Song Yoon Ah that he forget ML is a politician not a King who is allowed to have concubines
FL is more of concubine then what she is called Aide

if ML would be single then this story would have worked well, but since he is a married man with kid
