Wasted potential
Story had a strong premise, strong characters and an exciting revenge plot but the writer's tendency or better said obsession with the shock value, over the top plotlines and insanely unpredictable plot twists ruined it midway into the drama.
I've seen enough Makjangs to know one should turn off their brain cells and logic to be able to enjoy them so illogical things aren't my main problems here.
The biggest problem with this story is the revelation of the main character's identity. I was hoping for a villain vs villain revenge plot and the struggle to see who's worse but instead we got a psychopathic villain with daddy issues vs himself like some person with bipolar personality disorder whose different personas are each other's arch enemies. I was truly disappointed by this plot twist and drama lost its initial intrigue.
Acting was good as far as screaming and jumping around goes, but still they did well in emotional scenes as well.
Music isn't anything especial. I liked background musics and opening theme but the songs, I did not. They were too melo and slow for such a drama that ends at a tense cliff hanger every episode. I'd like something faster and louder.
It doesn't worth a rewatch unless you want to watch S2 and would like to remember details before that.
