The drama is very good. There is a love story, we have a very ambitious woman shown who knows what she wants. This is the first time I have met the main character, who is not a nice, sweet and docile woman. The protagonist tries to cope with the past, but the past is still coming back to it. She looks for support in her loved ones, but they don't give her one. Qi Stephy played the role of Ye Fan Xing genius. The emotions that can be read from her face are so real.
As far as the plot is concerned, I am pleasantly surprised. The side threads were played very well. The main story itself had its course and was very interesting. Although at the beginning I was negatively disposed towards the heroine's behaviour, over time I was persuaded by her acting performance to the pain that the girl from the orphanage had to feel and later rejected by her adoptive mother. I have a younger sister myself so I know how it can be with my siblings, especially if they are so older.
On the other hand, we have Zuo Hang in the role of April Min. The actress brought out from this character the best that could have been. In a positive and negative sense. At first, the nice, warm and great devotee of our Ye Fan Xing, later, her character is rapidly changing.
There could have been a few changes in the series, but I was really happy to watch it. What I still like about the series is the opportunity to identify with some of the characters or their behaviour. I think that this drama is a great tear extruder.

Acting was too exaggerated for me. All the events were happening too quickly and the episodes were too short in my opinion. Although from the beginning we had some romantic relations between the two main characters, I wasn't convinced about their feelings until the very end.
As far as the theme of the main character's sister is concerned, just as it started unexpectedly, it also ended unexpectedly.And the whole main story is not well explained either. Although we have a little mentioned what it's all about, for me it's definitely not enough.I always try to find as many positive sides of each series as possible, but in this case there are too many shortcomings for my opinion to be positive. I'm sorry, but I didn't like this series.

Revenge
Revenge - in one word we can sum up all the moves of the main character.Han So Hee perfectly played the role of a small, weak girl who under the supervision of the mafia boss undergoes an extraordinary transformation and turns into a real tough girl. This character will stay in my memory as one of the really well played ones.
Park Hee Soon as Choi Moo Jin is an amazing combination. I love him in this role. And the chemistry that develops between him and Oh Hye Jin is something that keeps the viewer hooked.
I think the series is amazing. Gangster cinema at its best. It keeps you in suspense, shows the brutal life of the mafia underworld and in all that, the girl's struggle to get to the truth. The series has been keeping me awake for over three weeks now. I will definitely revisit it.
But one detail puzzles me. That chemistry between Oh Hye Jin and Choi Moo Jin. The whole team gave us a glimpse of something wonderful. The way they play off each other on screen, the subtleties mixed with brutality. And the ending itself, something so real. Different from all the "happy endings" we get from Americans for example.

A series that brought moments of horror and at the same time lots of laughs. But I was prepared for a real gangster series, unfortunately I got an ordinary law series with a little bit of thrill. But I hope to see Vincenzo as the head of the Italian mafia and the real gangsters.
I am very pleased with Ok Taecyeon's acting. His character is the best in this series. I love him in such strong roles. They suit him very well in my opinion.
Song Joong-ki as the main character, Italian mafia member Vincenzo Cassano is also eye-catching. Especially at the very end of the series, when we get stronger cinema than those legal adventures from the beginning. The only thing I miss in this character is "strength". Vincenzo Cassano is a handsome man, constantly wearing suits, as befits a mafioso, but I miss the authenticity and maybe even the feeling of being in this role. Somehow I don't buy what he shows us on screen.
And the last character that stuck in my memory was Jang Hanseo played by Kwak Dongyeon. I really liked his acting and the whole character, it's a pity that there's not much of him on the screen.
The series holds your attention, has a great cast and a really good atmosphere. It's worth taking your time and getting to know its storyline. I hope this is not the end of the adventures and we will meet the Cassano family again!

The drama is not too long. All events are accumulated in one dose, which makes it difficult to break away from the screen. I myself admit that I watched this series in one go. No interruptions, no dissipation. My attention was focused only on the events played on the screen.
I highly recommend that you familiarize yourself with this drama. She will surely become a friend of every girl.

The plot is exactly as one would expect from such a drama. It might seem that this is a not the case. On the contrary. The drama, although with a very popular motif, was recorded superbly. Can attract attention. While watching it, you can relax and let your imagination run wild. Teenagers in particular. The sweet story between the two main characters is brilliant. The drama is most recommendable. It is worth seeing.

As for the music in the series, there is nothing to attach to. The music here is a complement to the acting game and the emotions that take place on the screen.
There are many characters in this drama. I liked the actor Ng Ron the most - he played the role of Yin Hao Ran. It seems to me that his character in this series is the most underestimated and the most disadvantaged one. I was very sorry for him after the drama was over.
In this drama, we will also experience the most irritating black character I have encountered. Mi Viola plays the role of the beautiful Cheng Xiang Nan - models, who want's everything. Men, love, fame, money and power. No matter what your cost.
Fu Fang Si is an undecided character who wants the best for her new brand, but on the other hand, her old love appears and she no longer knows what to do. Furthermore, the problems which fall on her, even more, force her to make any decisions.
The series is a mirror of many female fantasies with a rich, handsome, man and great professional career. It is recommendable.

WTF!
Warning mega lots of spoilers! Read only after finishing the whole drama!OmG! What was that! I am mega shocked and pissed off!
First of all, the whole drama is some kind of unfunny joke. The parents of the main characters supposedly love each other so much and all you can see on screen is them holding hands and the only "I love you" at the end.
.
.
.
Secondly, the Nawasch Phupantachsee game is mega annoying. And as for me it has a big plus for that. His character - Peat - is mega annoying and also very original. I appreciate that aspect of his role. But what the scriptwriters have come up with for the last couple of episodes goes beyond my imagination. There is not the slightest chance that someone who loves another person would treat them like that! "Peat" may be handsome and "very jealous" of everything, but he has problems that he can't handle and on top of that he also drives one of the girls to "mental disorder", because I guess that's what I can call what "Chaya" played by Sirinart Sugandharat is doing.
.
.
And then there is "Kiew" played by Bua Nalinthip Sakulongumpai. A character who is incredibly kind and wants to help everyone. She falls in love with a bastard and then expects some kind of reaction from him. What he did on their wedding night and then all the action with the new tenant should immediately lead to a divorce, especially since this motif recurs later on all the time. I do not understand this second, third and even fourth chance that Kiew gives Peat.
.
And at the very end "Kris" and his great idea with the gun! He knows when is the worst moment to fire such an idea! As far as I am concerned, this should not happen anymore. There were too many of those scenes in the whole 24 episodes of the series, and that idea is just so out of the blue.
.
I don't think I've ever been as annoyed by a TV series as this one!

Wow
All I can say about this show right after it's over is that : WOW.The series is so strong. A lot of emotion comes with it. He's telling a very tragic story. Not everyone will be able to watch this show in peace. The acting was amazing. You could feel the emotions on the screen. I also really liked the role of Kim Soo Hyun played by Jang Ki Yong. In my opinion, an actor was the perfect choice to play this role. Cold and hard, yet with a lot of warmth and reason. It's not just a killing machine, it's also human behavior. Emotions are suppressed by him, which very well reflects the whole character. However, If I wanted to write about music or set design here, I would have to watch this series again. I was very drawn into the plot itself. Tragic events that take place on the screen are intertwined with the everyday life of the characters. We're going back to their past. Well, it's not a show for Sunday afternoon. Sitting in front of the monitor screen we have to arm ourselves with steel nerves and somehow adjust mentally. I don't get to watch a series like this very often. However, it is worth to get acquainted with it. The events presented in it may make some people realize that there are problems in the world that we never dreamed of and people who sell human life without looking whether it is a child or an adult.
I also liked promotional posters very much. Somebody perfectly rendered the atmosphere of the series and at the same time made a great advertisement.

I am after the end of the drama. The series promises to be amazing. The first dozen or so episodes brought with them a great dose of emotions, conspiracy, love and revenge. In truth, I set myself up for something wonderful after them. However, the drama started to run apart. It was as if the writers had no idea how to end it. Some additional threads started to appear as if they wanted to justify the characters. From the beginning, Min Yu Ra has been depicted as a nasty, intelligent lover who does not see the world outside the Emperor. But at the end of the screenplay, the scriptwriters came up with an affectionate story about a difficult past and, at the moment, they whitewashed the character into a lost angel.
Where is the division into Wang Shik? Nobody knows. One of the leading figures. First set for revenge. The killing of the Emperor was his only aim.
Then the theme of love appears. Where we already hope that this guy found his beloved after the passages. But what turns out nothing like this has a place because our great empress does not feel anything to him. Although the earlier behaviour of the character seemed to wriggle in the direction of the love thread. And so in general, where is the division into Wang Shik? In the last episodes, he is not present at all, and thus a silly explanation of his death. The killing machine, trained to kill the emperor is suddenly

When I was watching this drama, I could relax and follow the characters' actions calmly. The drama is ideal for free afternoons with cakes and coffee.
