This was such an adventurous journey. I was a bit reluctant to watch this but I went in just to see.

I enjoyed the series. My initial thought was that it was another spy type thing however it was completely different. While it did have a bit of secrecy in it, it was not your typical spy/espionage type thing. The series was really about dominance in society. In terms of business, you have a bunch of men who want to be on top whether it’s business or gang related. What you witnesses here is the method they go about doing it to include robbing and taking advantage of other people to take what they want. I think this is the basis for the story.

While many believe that it is just about a female getting revenge against one person, I believe it’s a bit more than that. The truth of the matter is there was another person that wanted the same revenge so as a means to an end these individuals essentially use each other to get a revenge of someone that they hate it. So essentially you have two people coming together to get revenge against one person. The method that they go about getting that revenge is what we witnessed throughout the series.

What I like most about this series was the time period in which the series cast, the acting and the music was nice. What I didn’t like about the series was that they made the villain in this series extremely villainess. What I mean by that is he was already suspected of one thing and the writers found a way to make him the villain of something else too. For me it was kinda like overkill. So just imagine someone is believed to have committed a crime and while you’re getting revenge you realize that they also kidnap your dog 10 years ago which is completely unrelated but they wronged you twice. Yeah it is was too much for me. For me it just complicated the story more than it should’ve been.

Overall it was a decent series. There was definitely enough action. A hint of romance. Love for sure.
