The series had so much potential yet had to fight through not to drop it
The things I enjoyed:- The bond between Do-un and His Grandfather was so sweet and heartwarming.
- Some of the plots were so unexpected and I liked how those made the story evolve and sometimes how Do-jun put his aunt and uncle in their shoes.
- The lineup of the cast duh
- The Squad Miracle Investment top tier I love how they got each other's back and when they come up with plans.
The things I didn't enjoy that much:
- The Pacing; The first few episodes had a fast pacing and then the pacing got so slow.
- The Storyline; It's not that I hate It completely but the storyline was quite dry. Like from ep 9-15 It's like the same betrayals happened but in a different department and in the end, it was all a plan of Do-jun. Not that I got a problem but It got to a point where I just got bored. The rest of the storyline is not that bad. Not satisfied with the end at all, I got very confused when Do-jun died and then we're suddenly back to the present. Still mad at the author for not making Do-jun and Min-young a thing, like common he was going to propose. The ending was just not satisfying, it had me confused, mad and a little bit disappointed.
- Characters; Everyone in the Jin Family pissed me off. they had like no type of development and they just stayed the same dum relatives who always got deceived by Do-jun and betray each other. Like bring in some spice, nobody developed anything everyone was an MVP.
Overall:
I don't only wanna hate on the series and say it's horrible, just saying it wasn't my cup of tea and the things mentioned might not appeal to your experience. The series It actually good, the storyline is neutral and the characters are also. In my opinion, the series wasn't that special it was neutral, nothing to spectacular sum the storyline accurately the ending just dropped me without that I would've given the series 7 and up.

The Series brought out all of my emotions
This Series made me laugh, cry, have aggression, be sacred, flip out... just everything. The series from my pov had everything I needed in a drama the comedy, the unexpected plots, the romance(not too much yet cute) and the storyline in general, was well written. The cinematography and the visuals were well-made and the acting was good.Firstly let me clear things out. I like law, thriller & revenge dramas so if you like these genres too just stop reading and go for it. I'm always ready to binge-watch a good revenge series.
20ep is a lot and each episode is like 1h 20min long and I didn't notice it. The series didn't feel that long, each episode wasn't boring to the point that I'm pushing myself through. The pacing for each episode was normal but from ep 18-20, there are a lot of things happening, for me the pacing was a bit fast.
The Storyline of the Series is not bad tbh. There were also a lot of plots but it didn't give me the impression that it was too much. Each character had its own story but we didn't get too much background from the side characters more from the MC. You also experience friendship more like a family between the MC and side characters, Geumga Plaza Gang ;). The comedy in the series was actually funny and wasn't cringe. The series had me laughing out loud. I also liked the balance between comedy and revenge.
I would be lying If I said that the series didn't leave me empty at the end. We got what we wanted revenge, yet there was still an open ending that wasn't that well made. To be honest the ending felt kind of rushed but it was still good.
Overall the series came, ate and slayed.
If you are still hesitant, let me tell you to go for it you won't regret it and actually might fall in love with it like I did.

It's good but slow
The Drama is not bad at all, but the pacing was way to slow. Form me the series started at episode 9. THe episodes before that felt like fillers for me. Love the cast and the characters. They could've made 12 or even 10ep out of the series and cutting the filler like episodes. Satisfied ending. Still recommend, it's a really good series except for it's slow pace.Was this review helpful to you?
