I didn't watch this show when it was airing because I was afraid it was overrated and wouldn't meet my expectations and I'm glad i gave it a try because this drama just proved me wrong!
If I were to describe Vagabond now, I'd say it is a well packaged action drama. From casts, acting, directing, and even production, everything and everyone has been top notch! Watching only the first episode, you'd already get the gist of how high the quality and budget for this drama must be. The action scenes , and the many plot twists in this drama were intense and enough to make you want more of it. Aside from the action scenes, there are some comedy, romance, and politics mixed into the show too, which i think makes the show more interesting.
The unique characters for this drama is another thing to look forward to from this show. I loved how the way the show slowly revealed the true personalities and intention of the characters. It definitely made everything more intense. Also the chemistry of the characters were just amazing. Watching Shin Sung Rok as a skilled and righteous NIS agent was just so endearing. I was sad he wasn't given much focus on the story but still loved his character! The main reason why I watched it was because of him. Watching him shoot away with a gun, he is just perfect for the role! <3
Seung Gi's chemistry with Suzy was great too, but I liked how aside from the few cute moments for the leads, the scriptwriter didn't add any more than what is shown, because it could have been seen unnecessary and forced.
Overall, Vagabond was an entertaining and refreshing drama to watch. It kept me on my seat tense, curious, and furious with every episode. The only problems I have with this show are: the information overload I got with the many characters introduced to us, the cliffhanger at the end, and they way they ended the show without taking down the real bad guy, nor a closure for the side characters.
