My first thought when I picked up this drama to watch was only about one thing. The amazing cast, so many actors that are already my favourites or at least have made a favourable impression with me and from their young and early days. I was prepared for some disappointment and even willing to power through for the actors.
My thoughts after finishing the drama has little to do with the cast. What a ride this was! A twist here. A turn there. Tables keep turning around. Questions keep coming even as they are answered. Just the kind of story telling that'll keep you biting your nails on the edge of your seat. The characters, no one, not one person is simple. You get so much more than you see. The titles of the episodes, the stories within the story, I could go on and on talking like a cryptic, because I don't want to give any spoilers.
The heroic stuff, good wins over evil, united we stand - these things are left open to your interpretation so I can't say anything without giving a biased account. There may be some minor logic holes. And the story may not cover every loose end, either practical stuff or the psychological stuff, I feel there are some unknowns left abandoned. But for 8 episodes, dealing with specific time period, those are not in the scope of the story. I guess, I'm only looking for that extra to get some closure, lol.

Overall though, if you are looking for a psychological thriller, an intense drama involving young kids, a layered story, and a puzzle about how it all comes together, this drama is for you.
