Watched till ep 4, because Ep 1-4: chef's kiss romance. Ep 5 onwards apparently: communication issues, a persistent surgeon, and an open ending in New York. I'm good thanks 🙂 I came for a love story, not a 12 year tragedy. The ML deserved better and so did I 😌 Will recommend this Exit Strategy (8/10) to fellow watchers.
The man who shields you from Myeong Eun-wons of the world, drives you to work disrupting his entire rigid routine, has empathetic senior energy, gives you a promise ring and secretly saves for your wedding ~ but sure, keep talking about his face.🙄
Honey Lee carries this entire drama on her back and makes it look effortless. Watching a loud, fearless, gangster-raised prosecutor accidentally infiltrate a cutthroat chaebol family is the most fun I've had watching a kdrama in a while. The comedy is genuinely funny, the villains are deliciously hateable, and the OTP has real chemistry that sneaks up on you. Minus one point because I wanted MORE villain punishment on screen, they deserved to suffer longer. But overall? Absolutely worth every episode. 🥜
OTPs chemistry was off the charts, cinematographically, acting wise it delivered, u may call it predictable but it was a trope-savvy and cute story . I seriously can't stand these haters. Guys what do you even want? Haters Nitpickers whatever🙄 10/10
The mystery is genuinely gripping and the plot twists will keep you hooked. I correctly predicted two major reveals which felt satisfying. However the drama seriously drops the ball on the romance. After 12 episodes of tension between Chanmi and Sooheon, the payoff is Meh. The Jaebom and Chanyu relationship also never gets properly explained which felt frustrating. Watch it for the thriller, not the romance. 7.5/10.
"Those driven by desperate desire often resort to unseemly choices." Yes, Queen Mother, we take your words…
Come on; I think Daebi-mama was cute. She was way too cute to be driven by desperate desires. She was just under bad influence. Lord Inpyeong is the one to blame.
Ian in full royal attire claiming the throne at the end of ep 11?? The character growth. The visual. The MOMENT. Byeon Woo-seok absolutely ate this episode.👑
I have seen some haters in this drama's comment section and hence the MDL rating. Haters must get a life. Every drama has its own hits and misses. But I think most of us agree that this drama has mostly hits. l love the casting, story, cinematography, music; well most of the things!⭐
Pil-do deserved so much better. I absolutely hate sad endings, and his death was genuinely traumatising for me :-| Still, I really enjoyed watching it overall… if not for Pil-do’s death. 9/10.
This lakorn was sitting in my on-hold list for months. I am glad I finished this. The mootha storyline was unbearable but once the 2nd sister is introduced it gets interesting .
That was not the ending. He can’t die he is the male lead.
His soul just left his body which will hopefully return. Also the starting scene of this drama showed him in Lawyer x Shaman dress one year into the future. So he stays alive.
