i just finished ep 33, all the bad guys are taken care of, now there's 3 episodes left and i already know who's…
Exactly that's why I stopped watching it by mid of episode 33. I felt his story and reasons seem poorly structured. They could mainly focus on his side story. Plus, the main conflicts were resolved.
This is the first Chinese historical drama I truly enjoyed watching. The plot was engaging and had strong Mulan vibes. The leads delivered excellent performances, especially in their fighting scenes, which were captivating to watch. Honestly, I felt that the story could have wrapped up around episode 32 or midway through 33, since most of the major conflicts were already resolved by then.
As for the second male lead, his role was fine overall, but his unrequited love for the heroine was poorly portrayed—he should have clearly realized she wasn’t interested in him and that her feelings leaned toward the male lead. Another small drawback was He Yan’s disguise as a man, which felt unconvincing as she still appeared quite feminine.
All in all, I really enjoyed the drama and would love to see the leads together again in another great project.
She is a loan shark who is Do Da-Hae's adoptive mother. Da-hae lives with a group of scammers. They are the only…
Oh, yes... she changes, and the two families reconcile. Do Da-Hae rebels by defying her adoptive mother's will and teaches her a lesson that love always prevails. She even tells her that she could have easily left her, but she chose her to be her family.

She is a loan shark who is Do Da-Hae's adoptive mother. Da-hae lives with a group of scammers. They are the only family she has. Together, they scam rich people. The boss of the group is Baek Il-hong, who makes all the important decisions, including selecting their targets and planning their schemes. After Da-hae’s father passed away, she was left all alone, as her mother had abandoned them a long time ago. The only person who attended her father’s funeral was a woman named Baek Il-hong. The woman turned out to be a loan shark. Il-hong had come there to inform Da-hae that her father’s debts were hers now. Da-hae would be responsible for repaying the money her father owed to Il-hong.
I enjoyed this drama, particularly one episode that brought me to tears. The beginning was promising, but it eventually lost its momentum. The female lead seemed indecisive and insecure in her relationship. While she clearly loves deeply and shows it, her fears and overthinking often led her to say harsh things to her lover. On the other hand, I really liked the female lead's sister, who appeared rational and was able to express her fear, love, and pain effectively.
I disliked episode 12 due to its irritating portrayal of the characters—the female lead came off as overly arrogant, and the male lead appeared excessively childish. Additionally, I skipped over many scenes, finding the plot somewhat silly.
While I preferred the webtoon, I found this drama to capture the essence of the revenge narrative effectively. I thoroughly enjoyed it, marking a rare occasion where I eagerly awaited each episode's release. The main actors truly excelled in bringing the characters to life. Despite some viewers' disappointment, I found it a solid 10 out of 10. This also marked a significant comeback for PMY following previous dramas that weren't as successful.
