Great Script, Great Performances

I am not a gamer in any way, so when I saw the premise for this I thought it might not suit me. I was completely wrong.

This was only my second kdrama, but I still consider it to be one of the most creative scripts I've seen produced. I don't know how people who are immersed in the world of gaming would react to it, but I was fascinated. Fortunately, from my perspective, the writer didn't overload the drama with technical jargon, and it was simple to follow along.

I have since seen a great deal of Hyun Bin's performances, and I still consider this one of his best; the subtle changes in his physicality were masterful, and it was great to see him in an action role with some depth. I think that most actors develop a few tricks that they can come to rely on when performing (whether or not they are aware), and I was grateful to see a performance practically devoid of gimmicks. I also appreciated the maturity that he brought to the role.

Park Shin Hye was beautiful in this drama, and her performance was adequate, though I didn't get a real sense of urgency or chemistry from her. I will admit that I rarely feel any sense of chemistry from her performances, though.

I absolutely loved Park Hoon's performance as Yoo Jin Woo's former business partner - whenever he was on screen, my attention was immediately fixed on him (not just due to the character). Great job with a small, repetitive role.

Another great example of the old adage, "there are no small roles, only small actors" was the performance given by Lee Jae Wook. Intense, realistic, dynamic.

I highly recommend this drama, even to people like myself, who aren't into gaming and action films.
