PLOT AFTER TWIST ! Y’ALL DON’T SLEEP ON THIS !

I was already tuned even before its release because it’s been months since the last series Netflix released that wasn’t romance (except the disappointment that was hierarchy) and I’m so glad this series kept its promises.

It was a pure political dramas, as I like them, full of plotwsists, no ´black or white ´ characters. Each of them had their bad sides when it comes to politics.

The episodes went by so fast I didn’t even realize. The cast and the acting were on fire. I already knew many of the actors in the cast since they are like ´veterans ´ in the industry but they didn’t fail to impress me once again by their performance! The intro and the OSTs were on point !

Even if I hated dong ho (he was being too pretentious to me, killing the president for his own sake and utopian aspirations when he eventually quickly fell into the same thing he was reproaching to him). Also he kept repeating the same thing ´I wanna change the world ´ which gave me shonen vibes but he was being too repetitive it quickly became annoying af !

Even if I didn’t love this character for this side of him he was a political genius if I’m being fr and it made the show entertaining ! His friendship with jang seok was so wholesome, they went through thick and thin together and he was the one always putting him back on the right way !

The ´old ´ secretary and the young assistant were also good characters.

The FL is so powerful and written truthfully to women of power and I love the writers for that.

The end is so delightful because we realize even if he committed suicide, he actually left having a plan. He ended up looking like the ´good ´ one, the president that was accused for nothing.

Also rip Han min ho, he was there for short but he was nonetheless a good character. May he rest in peace ! ?
