A MUST WATCH AND A FABULOUS SERIES WITH SUCH TALENTED ACTORS

First of all, I believe that, for a cinematographic project (a movie or series) to trully work and have outstanding quality, the chemistry and professionalism of all the actors must be the top priority for the production and casting team. This series, amongst many I watched so far for the last two years, is in my Top 10, maybe in my Top 5. Toptap and Min's chemistry is absolutely captivating and undeniable on screen. I searched about them 2 to 3 weeks ago and I must say that their company (Aplan International) really has to fully cherish, support and give many opportunities for them, as their acting skills are remarkable, from their facial expressions, the way they portray the series' characters (which, by the way, possess depth and traumas that make them human), the dynamics they form between them,... everything. I am very trully enjoying watching Payback for their perfect work but also to give my congratulations to the director, the screenwriters and all the cast and crew for this gem they created. As I wrote in my headline: A MUST WATCH SERIES that definitively deserves more publicity, more promoting everywhere. Some little details (maybe, 2 or 3) should have been more carefully reviewed before the exhibition to the public, but as the characters (Jay, Sun, Sky and even Kajorn), nothing and nobody is perfect, everybody has traumas, flaws, a survival instinct and the will to live the best they can and with a little bit of hope. My rating is overall 9,7/10. I trully hope to see more of Toptap, Min and Shogun's work and that Aplan International keep promoting and giving them such beautiful and interesting projects. A storyline based on the highs and lows of the cinematographic industry is a glimpse at the real world actors, managers, directors and CEOs face everyday. As us, fans, should always respect the hard work they provide and, at the same time, be aware that, sometimes, there are unscrupulous men (as Sunny and the ugly inside out investor) that are the true villains. A realistic story about power struggles, psychological and emotional games, the instinct of survival, the awakening of feelings and a form of redemption. As for the symbolism of Alice's nightclub, the messy Jay's office and home, the rooftop where Jay and Sun meet, for example, trully is perfect for my detective, investigative mind. Greetings from an international / Portuguese fan of the series. I also hope that Toptap and Min keep working together as partners in upcoming projects. They are my new favourite ship, I must confess. Blessings for everyone (cast, crew and other fans).
