Honestly i was about to do harsh review while watching the first half of the final ep but somehow i enjoy the last parts. but thinking about it that what i feel while watching this show i love it but hate it sometimes. and i have a love hate feeling to all the mean characters through out the show and that was nice.

The story start good even tho i'm not fan of revenge dramas it was interesting, i loved Saeroyi unique character, that boy that have strong views of life and some how Lack social communication skills in good way. and let's say that the drama strong point was the unique characters not the story it self, that's why when the time come for the story to move on and Saeroyi grow his job they half ass jumping it felt unrealistic easy. and same thing in growing the characters. so i enjoy the drama tell ep 11 then it fall down with fast jump and force push for the love line and the boring long scenes even in the final ep, but i got satisfied just seeing everyone happy in the end so i give them a pass for that.

so if you going to start it don't thing so much in the revenge but the characters you will enjoy them but they will annoy the hell out of you too.

Acting was so good
i'm not fan of PSJ that's why i wasn't planing to watch this show in the start but i fall to him her he completely suit the character.

Yoo Jae Myung as Jang Dae Hee was amazing AMAZING what a great skills to hit me with the right feel.

Kim Da Mi as Jo Yi Seo : let's be real if any one play yiseo instead of DaMi it would get ton of hate ( it get ton but it would have another ton) the character is annoying and childish but she act it so well make it a bit cute and i'm sure a lot fall for the actor more than the character. Honestly i hate her till ep8 just think the actor cute then i start to love her after what she did for Saeroyi

Nara as Oh Soo Ah : same as Dami, her acting give a lot to the character to make me understand it. people who born alone in world learn to live alone and strong only for them selves.

osts was super good especially kim feel and Gaho osts.




spoiler coming so this part for people who watch already ::

in the start i enjoy the unique character and i have big hope for a character development but other than yiseo calming down a little there are non. and i thought the love line will go way better but..

for me it was a good drama until the ending of ep11 that rejection scene, then it's like another writer take over the drama like hell what someone who can't cook 2ep ago is wining competition against all big restaurant and the big lol a rich grandma in the street and yeah fast forward IC are 2 in the country. god if you plan to be ridiculous why give us a hope in strong Saeroyi and smart yiseo journey. and what with the wigs *sigh*
then the forced change in love line like the saeroyi who was in love with Sooah for 10 years i can accept that he lose interest in some point but the sudden falling in yiseo like "ah it was all her" was so off and forced and then push that by stupid kidnapping so we believe that love, ep 14/15 and half 16 was just ridiculous and boring. they could use that time to show him falling in love.
but i love that very last part when everyone become happy even tho i wasn't convinced by Saeyori ( and the kiss was bad) i loved how happy yiseo she deserve to be happy she worked hard haha. also the scene that get me so emotional was when she apologized to Geun Soo for using him. and SooAh bogum girl won. haha.

as i said before the unique characters was the best thing in the drama yet it annoy the hell out of me Honestly i hate yiseo till ep8 so childish and annoying and that type that get what i want no matter what and Run over and take advantage of other feelings so i hate that people hype her as badass while she is so bad the say she better than sooah but she just as bad lol the only different she work to get the man she want. i just love her bc she is cute and all lol but no don't hype that act young people me love to act like that lol. and what if she don't get the man girl leave everything to build him.
i also don't like the random gather of every type who have social problems like transgender, gay , black korean, gangster like yeah good to talk about accepting others but it feel forced by putting them all.

so yeah some are hyping it so much it was just good.
