This drama was better than expected after reading others review and finding out it was based on a real event I knew the outcome of the story and was worried about how it would be portrayed and if the ending would satisfy me.

The drama really shows a really great story between brotherhood, friendship and family. The political part wasn't too boring and gets more intriguing as the story carries on. The struggle on one's ideals and how far one should and could for their ambitions was portrayed really well in this drama.

With the character that Ray Ma portrays usually, I'm not a fan of the overly hopeful and naive character that I was expecting Ray Ma to play but the character was smart and never backed down from his belief. In some ways, I did find it annoying at the beginning and wished he follows the advice 'Sima Yi' the character Elvis Han portrayed but in the end I wasn't left unsatisfied with how he accomplished things and was quite happy with the ending.

The acting was really amazing by all the actors even the 'villain'. I have nothing bad to say about the acting. The characters all played their part even if some of the characters were annoying it was suited to the drama.
