Action and revenge

Loved the cast and characters; all the females were strong, no nonsense, smart and independent, ranging from truly wicked and heartless, to tough on the outside, soft on the inside.
I loved Do Bae-man's Auntie, Do Soo-kyung, brilliantly represented by Kang Mal-geum who often gave her mature character a feel of youthfulness.
This is an unusual drama, as it spans military, political and corporate crime.
There is all the usual scheming, intrigue, manipulation, abuse of power and threat.
It is a cleverly put together plot, very entertaining and gripping, though heavily fiction orientated, so if you want true to life, you might find many faults.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and really liked Ahn Bo-hyun and Jo Bo-ah together.
There is a tiny bit of romance (fitting I thought), but this is very much a revenge drama.
The character that I thought went through the biggest transformation was Noh Tae-nam; used by everyone, including his own mother, left to his own devices, totally lacking any moral compass or compassion (what happens when no love, direction or guidance have ever been provided), all his wrong doings covered up, selfish and repulsive.
However, I couldn't believe that by the end I actually felt for him and even liked him.
There is plenty of action, but also

**a nasty sexual assault case and also some quite distressing scenes of bullying in the Army**, which could affect some viewers.

There are some very moving moments too.
Nicely concluded as well, with no question marks or loose ends.
P.S. even though the actual Doberman, Bolt, wasn't in a huge amount, he stole the scenes he was in, completely ?
