As someone who was there when the first trailer dropped from filmania back in 2020, I was expecting this to be good. While there were cast changes and the whole production got moved onto BeOnCloud, it only got better. I was stoked to hear that a release date was set for the first episode.
Now getting into it:
Story- I didn't read the novel so I can't compare it to that but the story line is kinda intense. There's a lot of twists and turns but all works out for the better in my opinion. There's a lot of action scenes too and blood but I mean it is abt the mafia so that's kinda a given. While there's many r-rated scenes which goes for the fact that its 21+, its not all about just sex. There are so many scenes just about love, whether through friendship, siblings, or romance.
Acting/Cast- I love the cast. I think every actor portrayed their character the best they could've. Through the behind the scenes and extra content they've put out and given us, you can see the hard work that goes behind every character. The actors all worked so hard so huge thanks to them. (I mean they're all super pretty too so like that helps XD). And I also wanna mention that Barcode, who plays porchay, is only 17 and this is his first drama, so you can kinda tell that, but he still did a hella good job acting.
Music- The theme song is hella catchy...but idky they always be playing diff versions of it. I find it hilarious that in like really cute moments, you'll have it slowed down piano vers or hot moments will be reg piano version or just emotional times it'll be no music vers. They do have other tracks but their theme song just stands out. Jeff's song Why Don't You Stay is so good. I love his voice. Barcode also did one of the ost's.
Rewatch Value- I love this drama a lot, but personally I have a hard time finding dramas that I deem rewatchable. Like I absolutely recommend this drama and theres a chance that I could rewatch it but nothing will ever hit as hard as watching this for the first time. But we'll see in a couple of months I guess.
Overall- I will miss the ride of the emotional roller coaster this brought me on. So many emotions, good, bad—moments crying out of joy and moments crying out of sadness—overall I do think this drama delivered. I highly suggest you watch it!
