Most of the last episode was a waste of time. It's not tragic enough and neither is it hopeful enough. The only thing I was happy to see was Gu Bei Xi back with his long hair. He really looks hot. I guess they had to keep his hair short for most of the drama so as not to steal the thunder from the ML.

So unbelievable that the ratings here would reduce further. This is such a masterpiece! And I'm not the only one who is saying it.

Need fillers for 35 episodes. Then there’s LLTG where they supposedly cut 11 episodes.
*rolls eye* So incredulous right? I didn't know they cut out 11 episodes in LLTG! But as a whole, the drama was still cohesive and it was good. Thank God!
One of the most satisfying ending l see in drama every block closed.
Agree! Very rarely you get a full episode to close off the stories nicely. I always find drama writers unable to end off dramas properly. This one was different and that deserves a 10 in my book!
His last tattoo. Oh wow. Healing over scar. Love over hate. Love the symbolism. But I'm curious...is this type of tattoo even possible IRL? I mean to tattoo a real pic...and having a close copy must require some top-notch skills.
Very glad that they ended the mafia arc swiftly and satisfactorily one episode before finale. Hope that the other mafia head gets caught. I hated that arc and some portions were pure stupidity. But I have to say I can emphatize with some of the stupidity cos these are people who thought with their hearts, not their heads.
I find the writing of this drama above average...some parts were pretty good. But there were too much to deal with in 16 episodes. So some parts were kinda glossed over and lacked depth. But overall, the story is cohesive and I consider this a good drama. I particularly like that the writer dealt with the topic of choice in the face of adversity. Even when he was badly beaten, forced, and manipulated, GYR did not want to be a thug just to survive. He's definitely no wuss!
