never watch this with high expectations
a very forgettable movie, can't even wrap my head around how it's soo famous. the plot had soo mucj potential, and they were even good at extracting it, but they just overdid it at the end. the acting was amazinggg, but would never recommend to watch this for the storyline.The first plot twist was actually mind blowing, but then the plot just became predictable, with a weird drive to it? Also the last scene where they believe who his pretend older brother actually is was so '????' So done with this cliche 'the survivers gotta be there' plot.

we need more kdramas like this
this was difficult to watch at times, but im glad i did.firstly, all the characters were amazing. they were layered and they did things and said things that felt real.
the plot progession was good. i like how selling a product didn't take too less or too much time. also liked how their desperation to make it through just one more day was always on the horizon because of the crisis, it actually never felt like typhoon trading had money.
i cried a lot, and laughed a lot and while many people found this drama unbearably negative, i liked it for that reason. we, as a audience, are so used to watching a hero who can always save the day that a helpless guy like kang tae poong, who knows as much about trading as an average person, felt weak. but that's the real thrill of the show— learning how to fly little by little alongside this guy.
my most important discovery though was lew junho. what an actor, and what a splendid performance. whatever he got paid for this project, it definitely was not enough. from the way dressed himself to the way he talked to the way he glowed and sometimes giggled like a little kid, i just fell in love with him as a character.
ps. i really hope that lee junho colors his hair oreo irl for a 2pm comeback too, it really suited him so well and we lost oreo junho in just a single ep.
