Pleasantly Surprised
After getting hooked with Song Joong-ki's filmography, only recently I didn't know what to expect with this drama series. After watching the trailer, I thought it would be the typical hard-core mafia themed series. The comedy variation in the plot was a pleasant surprise. The comedic scene and dialogue are pulled-off unintentionally (it seemed), giving it a nice twist. I personally like court scenes and this drama gave me a different appeal with the unconventional approach in presenting the case and procedure. Song Joong-ki's character, appearance, versatility (italian language) -- makes him more appealing in this drama...as he is already after watching most of his drama and movies. I like how he does his 'fight' scenes and yet comes out still looking daper. The casting for the leading lady of Joong-ki is a good choice, they complement each other. I really look forward each week for the new episodes. One of the best season finale I have seen. Air time for each roles (including secondary) were sufficient and did not seem rushed. Although the death of the antagonist was gruesome, it was presented well. The best scenes for me are: the proposal at the museum and the italian exhibition (stairs) -- before they said goodbye.
