a gorgeous onion of character development and storytelling

Its been a long time since I've felt such strong emotions this early on in a drama, 2 episodes in and I'm in love with these characters and invested in their stories.

The story follows the life of Do Hoe, a quiet high school student who lives under his abusive father, a the Grandmaster of a Taekwondo gym. Ju Yeong is the mischievous type, he gets kicked out of his home in Seoul and sent off to the countryside to train under the Grandmaster, and there the relationship between Do Hoe and Ju Yeong begins.

These characters and their stories are so beautifully done, what I love most about this show is the absolutely masterful subtlety they use to tell their story, it's all of the tiny little details that make up each scene, layers on layers deep, each scene peels back a new layer of the characters backgrounds and personalities.

The actors are great as well, each of them have a unique role to play in the atmosphere and they do a fantastic job. The production is excellent, it has a cinematic feel to it where each scene is intentionally crafted to perfection, and the music and editing are good as well.

Absolutely recommend the watch, this drama deserves so much attention, cant wait to see more, will keep updating this review as episodes come out.
