As per usual, plotlines can be grating, acting can be overdone, but this show has some really beautiful moments in it. And I watched the action scenes more than once hehehe. Hang Ah “That means your military background includes training others for death by explosives.” I'm sorry, by Ha Ji Won's acting...what the heck is she doing? Her baby voice is so argh. No one does a rough woman like a Korean. “It's been a long time since I assassinated using explosives.” Hang Ah has the most perfect bad guy calm threatening tone that sends chills up your spine. I love that she's a badass but can skip around in heels too. Talk about #useyourand. I love that she's girly. I like that the men are rooting for Kim to take her place among them and she's the one that doesn't want to do it. She's not ambitious in the army and her comrades are wanting to push her forward. I thought her mother in law would hate her for a long time, but she gets used to her pretty quick. The family's loyalty to her despite circumstances was awesome to see. Hang Ah is not particularly fierce on the emotional front, but her rationale is pretty good. She's calm about her love and she has some common sense. My favourite parts were when she was up against Jae Ha's enemy. She really knew how to handle herself. “Don't misunderstand. I'm not alive now by luck. It's because I haven't chosen to die yet.” Jae Ha He's laidback and audacious, just like he is as a kid. The epitome of the younger brother king who wants to just fool around and leave the responsibility to the older brother. Oh my gosh, I usually hate brats like this guy but Lee Seung Gi is so comical he just pulls it off so hilariously. Jae Ha is reckless but he's also terrified of Hang Ah. I was really surprised to see how kind he was when Hang Ah was down. “Who was it? Who made our leader cry?” “Jae Ha, a man calling himself cute at your age is pathetic.” “But I am cute!” Jae Ha's serious tone is brilliant. He smiles very casually but his intensity has so much personality. When he gets fierce in his calm way over Hang Ah, I really enjoyed it. His expression when he's trying to get a point across is compelling. Romance “You're afraid I'm going to jump you? I'm too scared to do that to a special forces agent.” Jae Ha is really good at the little gestures. You gotta love that in a guy. I couldn't see the pair of them working out until Jae Ha smiled at her and then I was sold that they should be together forever hahaha. Once again, there's a great usage of showing intimacy without showing intimacy. After the halfway mark the relationship takes on an interesting turn. It was nice to see the side of Jae Ha that wants to make it up to Hang Ah. Eun Shi Kyung He is the kind of character that the show will do cruel things to to show how manly and disciplined he is. Also, it is really awesome that a soldier has perfect pitch #useyourand. It was interesting to see how hard he is when it comes to romance. Despite his obliging personality on his professional level he is really quite a hard nut to crack. Or maybe it's just his insecurities. “I may be amusing to you now, but you'll grow tired of me.” “I'm not that impulsive.” “Don't toy around with me.” Jae Shin This actress is always so much fun. I loved seeing how brave she became. Mother in law She's great. Really great. There's an Australian in this show hahahaha. Soundtrack I think I might like this rock and roll soundtrack Strings tension track ooh yeah
