First Kdrama I watched and just one of the best shows I've seen period.

Goddamn this show is fantastic. The characters, story, acting, action everything is just so well done. Such great production values and cinematography. I can't speak too specifically on the show since it's been a while since I've seen it but it has still strongly stuck with me. I absolutely loved how Eugene's and Koe Ae - shin's relationship developed, their romance was beautiful. All the supporting characters are strong. Eugene's confrontation of the people who wronged him as a child was great and what a great performance by Lee Byung-hun, the boy who plays him as a kid also does a wonderful job. I do remember finding the Samurai guy to be a little too edgy sometimes but he has a great story nonetheless.

As far as re watch value goes, I would watch it again but some of it is pretty sad so maybe one day.
