And I changed my opinion.
I did not expect this drama get me so excited. The plot began to develop in a interesting way. At the begining the story of this series was not very original, but with time it became more and more curious.
I am glad that the work of a lawyer and a prosecutor did not end up tendentiously. The drama also showed what the work of the judiciary looks like after capturing a criminal.
When it comes to actors, in my view the main character was very fascinating. He had a very intriguing look. The acting of the rest of the actors was also convincing.
It is just a pity that the music was not diversified. I regret a little about the underdevelopment of the main characters' relations.

At first I thought that the combination of MMA and exorcism would give a fresh approach, but there is nothing extraordinary in this film, nothing that could break certain conventions in an interesting way.
All I liked was one of the exorcism scenes. I feel sorry for the potential of two actors - Park Seo-joon and Woo Do-hwan - which has not been used properly. I don't recommend this film, I think it's tiresome and tedious.
No idea, no chemistry, no idea.

At the beginning, as in the case of drama, it was completely calmer. Based on my experience with Korean dramas, I came to the conclusion that the story will be much calmer.
When it comes to the main actress, Go Joon-hee, her face was specific. She wasn't very expressive - little was happening on her face. On the other hand, this mimicry perfectly suited her heroine, and therefore, pradadoxically, was interesting.

Are you sure there were four khights?
When I was looking for a drama to watch, I noticed the title of this series several times, but because of the tacky name I didn't want to watch it. One boring day, following a mysterous motive for me, i decided to watch the first episode.When the heroine (Park So-dam as Eun Ha-won) was presented, I thought: "She must be really cool". From the begining she made me curious. She is a woman who can inspire with her will and good heart. The plot began to be more and more interesting when Kang's cousins and Eun Ha-won were brought together.
I have to admit that from the begining I have been supporting the main female character and Kang Hyun-min, from whom it all started. I liked very much the scences of the fans' hearts beating faster. I was a little disappointed when I saw that the love stories was supposed to look different. I have to admit that I missed some scenes because the threads of the grandfather and his new wife weren't interesting to me. In my view quite interesting was the plot related to Eun Ha-won's father. The viewer at one point was confused and nothing was obvious anymore.
As usual in drama, I was annoyed by the excess of buying things that are not used later. For example the scene of leaving three packages of ramen open distracted me a lot. There was too much shopping in the drama, too many moments when a man took the initiative. In this way the character of the heroine, which the drama director tried to emphasize at the beginning, was not so intriguing. I was glad that she didn't always react with great enthusiasm and above all she wanted to prove to herself and others that she was able to take care of herself.
Drama has good moments, but unfortunately, it also has a lot of broken patterns. Despite the title I don't consider het to be Cinderella, who was graciously saved by a horse on a white prince.
I realize that some fans had doubts about the title and wondered who was the fourth knight. In my opinion the secretary should not be the one, as the drama's producers intented. According to their logic, the knight should be a person who has a particular sympathy or interest in Eun Ha-won.
I thing the soundtrack is quite okay. I especially like the songs:
- "For You" (BTOB),
- "My Romeo" (Jessi),
- "I believe" (Younha),
If someone hasn't got hight expectations for drama and likes to look at decent acting, I can recommend this drama.

I also liked the chemistry between Kim Min-Joon and Jang Ha-Ri. It's just a pity that this plot wasn't treated enough.
The drama had a lot of common patterns, which made the plot an ordinary story. There were some logical mistakes.
I also missed emphasizing the role or character of the other members of the Mad Dog group.

These two work well together, not just at work. I felt the chemistry between the characters. I think it was mainly thanks to actress Kim Hye-Soo, who played fantastically. Her brave look and outstretched neck gave the impression of a proud, brave and fighting woman.
In such dramas the themes of murder and corruption are very often discussed - there is no shortage of them either. I have to admit that despite the lack of originality in the approach to the subject, the series was very well watched.
There was no shortage of funny scenes, obviously related to the relationship between the main characters. I liked that Jung Geum-Ja was not ashamed of herself, she knew that she was a good lawyer and that she was able to overcome the male dominated system.

A very pleasant drama , which does not experience a crisis of boredom in the middle of the series. The main characters are very interesting. This is the first drama in which I saw Lee Min Ho and I must admit that I liked his acting very much. His look expresses a lot of emotions. You might also be satisfied with Jeon Ji Hyun's actress. Between them you can feel romance and love. It was very pleasant to look at them.
I liked the "work" of the cheaters very much. It held a little bit of tension, it had a little fun and above all made Heo Jun Jea attractive in my eyes.
I like the fact that the main characters quite often get physically close to each other (of course not going beyond the limits of decency, so much emphasized in dramas). This makes the drama pleasant and funny.
As for the fantasy theme, it is not presented here in an original way. It's hard to believe that sirens would swim in a costume covering their chest. I shouldn't pay attention to this,. After all, there are age limits here. Well, I like authenticity, reality even in film or series productions that deal with supernatural phenomena (that's why this issue bothered me a little).
Despite the nice feeling after watching the whole drama in 3 days, I would like to briefly point out its disadvantages. First of all, the character of the main character's brother (played by Lee Ji Joon) is illogical here. I miss a clear reason why he changed his attitude towards the problems he was facing so suddenly.
What's more, I also missed a shot of Heo Jun Jae's brotherly friendship. The younger hacker was treated as a meaningless character, and that's a pity, because I think the three of them had an interesting potential.
The drama replicates a recurring pattern, typical of romantic comedies - "if something bad is happening, I won't tell you about it". This is not how relationships should function. If we show some ideal world (their love is perfect), let's at least show how important is honesty in a relationship. It's no harm to be honest about what our lovely mermaid had to do. Really, such a melodramatic ending is not very convincing, especially when we shout out loud "why couldn't you tell him about it?". Her behavior made no sense.
However, I think that drama is recommendable, especially for those who want to rest and relax after a hard day.

I liked the emotional balance - there were funny and emotional scenes. I must admit that at times I kept my fingers crossed for residents. There are some common patterns in this drama, like the presence of a cardiac surgeon or neurosurgeon (can any series exist without these doctors?) or embarrassing romantic themes. I always feel bad when I look at people who confess their love to a person who feels nothing for that person. I liked the theme of Jang Gyeo Wool who was falls in love with a pediatrician. I kept my fingers crossed for her.
What matters most to me in this drama is this emotional balance. In such dramas there are often too many strong emotions, which makes watching the series difficult. I'm glad that the perspective of the characters themselves - their private dramas, arguments with their families or boys - wasn't stressed too often. I think it's too much. It already was!
I really liked the music in this drama. I love George Winston "Canon". By the way, I heard this song in a different version, this time in the Japanese drama "The Forest of Love". I recommend the violin version, it's really beautiful.
I have so many responsibilities, but this drama made me unable to stop watching it. It's really worth recommending. The frames are beautiful, I really liked the way the show was framed. The cast is excellent, no artificiality, just naturalness.
I can't wait for the next season!

It is a plot that has absorbed me completely. I have strongly experienced the story of Im Sang-mi. I also felt a great regret (and anger) about the situation that Woo Do-hwan's character found himself in.
And here I would like to mention one of my favorite actors - Woo Do-hwan - because, as usual, his acting convinces me. I like the fact that I can meet him in different roles. I'm counting on further productions with him.
I also liked Ok Taec-yeon because he gave the impression of being a man to feel safe with. Even through the screen.
The music has a special effect on the viewer's emotional perception. I cannot get rid of my head the melody from the song "Hallucination" by The Vane. It is a song that I will certainly remember for a long time. It made this drama one of those I will recommend to my friends.
The ending is as you could have planned. And well, it is good.
I fully recommend the drama. You can't miss it!
