A Solid 8. Would stick for a second season if there is any.

I would have loved it if the show was going to be about accountants' day-to-day office life, but that wasn't the case since the first episode. It's clear that the show is motivated by revenge and although revenge dramas aren't my cup of tea I stuck the entire run without missing a week. I was always curious and because I knew nothing about "numbers" and the finance world I couldn't expect the run of events so it was interesting enough.

The show is decent in plot. It didn't focus much on the characters which is always a minus for me. The grandma character was poorly used. I can almost say the same for the characters around Howoo.

Season 2 can be fun. I would hate for it to be in the same concept as season 1 but if we refocus on the characters' relationship and use Jisoo's son as a focal point we can get somewhere fun. The good thing about the show was that it identified a good villain who wouldn't make the battles against get boring. It also recognized there is no "happily ever after" and left us with a lot of realism even after very sour crimes.

TLDR Good show. Nice story. Perhaps if it had a slightly different approach I would have liked it more. I would recommend it. I would love for more people to see how good of an actor KMS is.
