Every episode felt like an awesome journey that's worth the watch

Before watching this series, I actually received a lot of recommendations for it years ago telling me how awesome this series is. (Not that I didn't believe them, I just kind of have a LOOOOOOONNNNGGGG list of series to watch and I'm glad I finally had the time to jump the Vagabond ride.) When I started watching it, I also had worries and doubts because I've also read a fair share of comments about how the ending is so much of a cliffhanger and how much a lot of people is still waiting for a 2nd season. (Specially worried because I hate series without closure.) But still went on and started it. The first episode didn't impress me, it took me some time to continue on the next episodes and boy this is one of those series I'm glad I took the chance on.

I was worried the story will feel draggy with me having to watch 16 episodes just to find out what really happened to this air crash but I was completely wrong. Every episode was an adventure that literally kept me on the edge of my seat and blew my minds off. At some point, I was like however the ending goes, the whole journey spread out across those 16 episodes is already enough for me. And it is. (Although, the ending gave me mixed emotions, this series is so giving that I still love it the way it is.)

Cast-wise, I feel like everyone executed their roles to the best that they can. I can't imagine any of the characters being replaced by someone else. However, despite the fact that some scenes gave me butterflies in my stomach, I can't seem to find Suzy and Lee SeungGi having 'that romantic' connection really. (Or maybe I'm just more invested on the Action-Thriller side of things, I'm not sure.)

Anyway, OST-wise I don't remember anything notable although that doesn't bother me anyway. If a second season comes up, I'll definitely re-watch this series. I definitely recommend this series, this is one of those that I never expected to love this much.
