Wow I really did not expect this drama to be this good. I've got to say I went expecting an average story but finished it feeling pleasantly surprised. Considering I've only seen Jin Dong in Nirvana in Fire and the Ode to Joy series I couldn't actually know about his acting skills but now I see why he's in the top tiers.

Other than that Tomb Raiding stories are one of my fav but they rarely manage to please me considering I'm very particular about them being more realistic. Not that this story was fully realistic XD but something in the story line kept me engaged. The whole plot moved pretty fast and except for the first few 5 episodes where it was a bit boring others were completely fast tracked. Also that CLIFF HANGER!!! WTF! was she good or evil? (you know whom I'm referring to). Also there's a very very very subtle almost non existent hint of a romance which more or less was dashed to the ground the last 2 minutes of the story, lol XD
Still all in all it was pleasant story to watch which I thoroughly enjoyed :)

Also are these actors in the same agency or something? Cuz I keep seeing familiar faces over and over again in the supporting cast.
