Money is the root of all evil!

Likes
1. Big question: how much are you willing to do and sacrifice to get 99 million dollars? So many different people trying to get hold of the money for their personal reasons, and i liked the message that money esp greed shouldn't control your life.
2. Tae Woo is probably the only "good" person in this drama, everyone else, even Seo Yeon is so gray. I loved it because it felt so real (although the situation is not) - as much as i love to hate Heeju or Jae Hun, i could understand them. Even Minkyu and Seung Jae, i actually felt bad for them.
3. Funny that almost every time, In Pyo gets the money, and yet at the 11th hour, he suddenly had a conscience and went back for Seo Yeon. And the money ends up with the right person.
4. Tae woo's confession and Seo Yeon telling him about his brother's death was painful.
5. Loved Seung Jae even though his character didn't stay long.
6. Probably better if this ended in 12 eps. Loved everything until Seo Yeon saved the main villain. The whole part about Daniel Kim was messy plotwise.

Dislikes
1. The main villain is not convincing to me. Maybe it's because the face of the actor is too nice to be scary, or because he doesn't have any background story that will make me at least understand his motivations. Drama mostly told us he was bad, his goons kill people but I don't see him actually do anything more than to look expensive.
2. The final showdown was underwhelming because i expected something as explosive as the epic scene in the middle but still okay since it neatly wrapped all the character stories (mostly through death lol)
3. The final scene between Tae Woo and Seo Yeon.

Rating: 8.5/10
