The best drama I've watched in a long time
So this is my first review, lets hope it is helpful.
Where to start. When I first started this drama I thought I can only watch one episode a day because of how deep and dark this storyline ran. When I got to episode 5 I seriously needed to know what happens next and it was such an emotional rollercoaster. I was very suspicious over certain characters from the get go but boy was I wrong about some of them.
This is truly one of the best drama's 2020 has brought so far. Lee Joon Gi and Kim Ji-hoon earned a lot of my respect with this drama. Lee Joon Gi showed a whole new side to him with what he is capable of portraying and that made me like him even more. How he portrayed his character's story was truly phenomenal for me. The way he worked with the little girl that played his daughter in the drama to the way he was when he was with his wife.
Kim Ji-hoon on the other hand. This is the first time I saw any drama of him and I must say he most definitely did not disappoint me one bit. From his earlier scenes in the drama I felt sorry for him because of what his parents did to him, but as I got more into this drama I felt like he deserved what he got but in a sense not. There was still a part of me that truly made me feel sorry for him because his character Baek Heeseong was also just another victim in a way to Do Min Seok. Even though he did most of the stuff himself and enjoyed it.
Kim Ji-hoon also made me feel uncomfortable with the way he portrayed his character Baek Heeseong but that is what truly made him earn my respect. He was so good in his acting that I most definitely am going to be on the lookout for him more and look for more of his drama's.
So I truly enjoyed this drama because of the way when I suspected someone it turned out to be exact opposite. The plot twists was so good. But one thing I would have liked more is for them to have shown more towards Do Min Seok and Baek Heeseong's relationship, how Min Seok turned Heeseong into what he was. How they came to do what they did. This drama could've been a 20 episode drama instead of 16 but it still is a insanely good drama.
