The stomach of Japanese politics.

The premise of the drama is very good and it is exactly how I think Japan and its politics and society are, where everything is appearance and the true war occurs behind the scenes in a fierce, discreet, and camouflaged way.

As for the performance, Min Tanaka was masterful and managed to convince us that the power of the "owl" lies more in meticulousness than in the imposition of forces. On the other hand, his co-star, Mackenyu, had little screen time throughout the drama, but his performance was quite mediocre. I have said several times that it seems like he feels uncomfortable acting and speaking in Japanese.

Now, we wait for a hypothetical second season. The Japanese have a habit of leaving open endings and simply forgetting about the drama.
