It is lacking

The story has everything I like, romance, action, comedy, fantasy, strong leads. But alas, it lacks everything.

Romance: the ML, FL chemistry has good vibes, but romance is little and dull.
Action: good sword fights, but no fight was an intense or a thrilling one, as all fights were training for ml. He didnt fight a single serious villain in all of 20 episodes.
Comedy: can't complain on this.
Fantasy: Doesn't hold a candle to animes I've watched. No aspect of it was new.
Leads: Entire story builds on premise that FL is weak and hunted. She becomes strong in finale, the episode that does only to build premise for next season.

Drama portrays every thing was easy then or the people were fooled easily

JCW is one of my favourite guys. I read some of the 10star reviews of this drama, here on MDL. But had to force myself to watch till episode 3. Didn't like anything - how easy it was to take over the gangnam by killing the old boss, how easily JCW fooled the boss, passed off as dead friend's cousin and became the must trusted guy and how easily they killed off the Busan gang leader. Just too easy and I find it hard to believe.
I liked JCW actions, he's does best of the best actions. The fight scenes are well acted.
P.S. does using cuss words in every f***ing line make it a good 90s crime drama. Felt more like teens acting off as grown-ups by using big cuss words.
