I'll be honest , I started this this series knowing the fate of the main protagonist because it is based on real events (loosely). But still it was rollercoaster ride from the first episode and I'm happy that I got to watch this series.

Even from the starting , you're pushed into this emotional whirlwind of characters . It'll make you feel sad, angry, betrayed and yet hopeful at time.

The character development for the main lead was nothing less than a spectacle. With every episode you'll be rooting for him everytime he goes down. You'll feel his pain and frustrations. I think, yang se jong did a terrific job.

Even the female lead is portrayed as strong character who helps in shaping the storyline and seolhyun (who I was bit doubtful about) made it look more badass !!. I'm happy that she took on this role so well

The second male lead , is a bit perplexing character. He'll make you feel angry and yet sad for him at time which shows the capability of the actor .

Even the other supporting characters were amazing especially Jang Hyuk and Ahn Nae Sang as protagonist .

The story is good if you're okay with watching period Korean drama, music is up there too but real kudos to the actors and casting.

PS: if you're sucker for happy endings, don't watch it .
