Title itself says a lot. I am watching it currently for ryu shi oh. He could have been the spotlight, a hero but no. The story is all over the place. Sometimes i'm like, "whats going on and why am i watching this?" Because its so random and messy. Funny part is, I started watching this, mid series from like 8th ep for the villain and i still understood the storyline of the drama. Watch this drama if its your first kdrama. Otherwise no. Especially if you have watched strong woman do bong soon. Ryu shi oh is the only good thing. Good back story and could have had a good character development. If the producers wanted us to root for villain and hate the main leads then good job, it worked.

Rant on characters:

Hwang geum ju is the most annoying ml i ever felt. I didn't feel any motherly vibes from her even if the show tried. Only started crying and caring when her own son was almost dying from drugs. She literally owns a hospital and is fricking rich but didn't give an F when the father asked her for help. I didn't feel bad when she was crying and hugging him. Her character felt narcissistic in a bad way. Doesn't she care about the fact that she just got reunited with her long lost daughter?? Any loving/caring mother would have spend days with their reunited children since they were not there when she grew up. But this lady didn't care that her daughter is going right into the lion's den (ik nam soon is hella strong but still, she is her daughter that she just reunited with!)

The granny romance plot is just useless. Its not funny either. If the granny character did not exist in the story...the story would still be the same, no change lmao. Same like Geum ju, no care for her grand daughter or grand son, cares more about her lover.


Gang i-sik is a good detective, i cannot deny it, he cares for his teammate and doesn't stop even if he is in danger. But as a romantic lead, he had no chemistry with nam soon. He met her, saw her cute and was already falling in love without giving us any chemistry. Could have just stick with police/detective work.

The father of Nam soon. My second favorite character that i sympathized and felt something for. You can see that he deeply cared for his children, does show guilt for losing his daughter. Does spend time with her for the time he lost with her when she was a child, tried his best to find out his son's sickness, since he had no choice, he went to detective. Always get pushed back because of Geum ju, he didn't deserve that man.

Nam soon is fine . Her acting sometimes annoy me but she was fine. should have not betrayed Ryu shi oh. Has more chemistry with Ryu shi oh than gang i-sik.

Ryu shi oh, my man, he was the only interesting character with a backstory. Could have explored about it a bit more. You should be making me hate him but the producers made me empathize with him. Makes sense as to why he was the way he was. Him changing from his rage mode to soft mode when he beat up the truck driver on ep 12th and then immediately voice mailing nam soon made me feel something that none of the main leads made me feel. He doesn't force himself on her, openly speaks up what he feels towards her. He is a charming man. he didn't deserve this ending.

Other characters i liked were the "no make up pretty unni" lmao, that lady doogo coworker beside tseg tseg. And that Russian bodyguard who works for shi oh, i think his name is kyle or something.

Only rewatch value for watching Ryu shi oh scenes.
