Clever as a devil?
Jun Ho's character, Do Hyun, is a figure of heroic magnitude and energy. He deliberates, resolves and exults. His "spirit" bears up unbroken, resting on its own energy and requiring no support from anything external, not even from hope itself
He undercuts his opponents by questioning what they had previously taken for granted. At times, he seems to be the only character who thinks, or in whom I best recognize what it feels like to think
The power to entangle and excite the audience is an observable feature of his figure. The greatness of his intellect lies in his intemperateness and ferocity
His heart is a tempestuous ocean, its "spirit" of justice/revenge the prow of a gallant ship, its sympathy the waves caressing the shoreline, and its determination the stormclouds that darken the horizon and bring the promise of cleansing rain. The "spirit" of justice/revenge is enhanced by the strain of something approaching tenderness. We see it again when Jun Ho (Do Hyun) is moved towards sympathy for those falsely accused of a crime. His will-power is not the expression of a nature irrevocably hardened or incapable of gentle emotion
What's missing? A season 2. Or a BL spin-off starring a man who will mend Jun Ho (Do Hyun)'s heart and wipe away his tears
