Story: Nice quick pace at the early episodes (plus all those time skips) which makes this drama stands out but the plot gets quite draggy near the end of the series. The plot has all the elements of classic korean melodrama but executed really well by the actors.

Acting/Cast: The cast consists of big names in Korean drama industry and this drama just make them to be even more well-known not only for the Koreans, but also International fans. As I said earlier that although the plot is quite cliche, but it is executed extremely well by the main actors. Some flaws in acting mostly by supporting actors, however.

Music: This drama has a really cinematic music composition of the score. The soundtracks are dramatic (as expected, this is a melodrama!) but as whole they don't stand out. The score, however, has a really nice and clever touch of the use of harmonica and bandoneon for sense of tango that is linked to the manipulation-and-revenge-drama of the series. The feeling of suspense and foreboding is delivered effectively by the music

Rewatch Value: Even with its flaw, 'Nice Guy' is definitely worth to be rewatched and fangirl-ed all over again. It has certain charms that pull you into it!
