It had countless misunderstandings & twists & turns, which will have you in complete angst & at the edge of your seat. In the end, it is all worth it though because of Lee Min Ho & Lee Joon Hyuk and their superb acting. The performance by these two guys is exceptional and their relationship take you through a severe emotional roller coaster ride.

STORY: It is about a man who is involved in a conspiracy with his country & the revenge he takes against the politicians who turned against him. Revenge story-lines are one of my favorite plot devices, especially when it is done correctly & this story kept me on my toes. The action scenes are some of my favorite parts of this drama. For those of you who want to watch this for the romance, I suggest you reconsider because it is not the main focus & you MIGHT be left frustrated if you solely concentrate on that aspect of the story.

ACTING: Although there were quite a few annoying characters because of their character's nature, there is no weak link in here when it came the acting. Everyone brought their A game. Lee Minho continues to show me why he is one of my top favorite actors in South Korea. I hope me makes more dramas soon.

MUSIC: The main City Hunter theme song really takes this drama to a different level because it makes me feel as though I am right there in the drama. It gives me goosebumps.

ENDING: There are many who say that they did not like the ending, but I found it gave me just the closure I needed. Although, there are some plot holes from some side stories that are either rushed or not resolved properly, but I do not think it took away from the drama as a whole.

RE-WATCH: I do not see myself re-watching this because I do not want to be emotionally drained again.

I RECOMMEND if (1) you are a huge Lee Minho fan (2) love revenge dramas & (3) love the dramatic twists & turns of K-dramas.
