At first the show might seem very boring but once you actually get into it, the story line makes a lot of sense. For someone who was procrastinating watching the show, I fell in love with it after episode 2. It starts off very slow but in the middle and at the end, this show gets very interesting because it actually starts to show how the past relates to the present. Insurance fraud may not seem very interesting to watch but the show really gets you into it. The screenwriter did a really excellent job of tying everything together so well from the beginning till the end.  I never found the show boring even for one episode. It did not make me want to skip to the next 5 seconds or 10 seconds of it. Honestly, this was one of the best shows this year that I watched and it is for sure my number 1 show for 2017. Kudos to the screenwriter who did such an excellent job of showing all the characters shining through and for keeping the storyline true to what it was meant to be.

The characters were very interesting to watch because each character had a different lifestyle and had a different story. Kim Min Joon was my favorite by far because his character was done so well that at the beginning you really seem to hate him but then when you actually get to the middle point of the show and you see his story, you can’t help but sympathize and love him. Woo Do Hwan was a perfect actor to portray Kim Min Joon. His acting convinced me from every expression he showed and every word he spoke. I also loved Yoo Ji Tae’s character because he was so different and opposite of Kim Min Joon. His pain and suffering really showed onscreen with his expressions. Even Ryu Hwa Young did an excellent job of being the perfect female lead who was sensitive enough to care for mad dog members but also tough enough to hold her own in missions. The slight romance gave this show a very nice touch because every scene that had a hint of romance made you take a breather from the intense storyline.

For me this show was exciting, thrilling, and a roller coaster ride. Even with the romance, I couldn’t help but squeal at each part because it was so cute. The ending didn’t seem rushed since everything was building up to the perfect ending. I loved how they didn’t just end right when all the bad guys are caught and actually showed what happens later on with the characters and where they all are in each point of their lives.
If you’re looking for an interesting and thrilling drama, I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS. This is for sure my favorite drama of 2017 and I don’t think it will change.
