The show truly stands by it's title till the very end.
Initially I didn't think I would be this invested in a drama, waiting for every ep with an unaltered eagerness. But the writers truly delivered.Whj was excellent as a gangster, but the character build up of Junmo was something to witness. I won't be surprised if JCW wins best actor for this drama because he truly aced it! It couldn't be any better, he brought EVERYTHING to the table.
As the story further unfolded, certain plots would seem predicable but I was glad to be wrong each time. Thankfully the drama didn't justify the wrongdoings, but at the same time they wanted us to know the consequences of every decision one makes, no matter the reason.
Overall: A MUST WATCH if you're into crime, thriller and suspense.
IT JUST WON'T DISAPPOINT.

A perfectly mature and heartwarming romcom
The story isn't too unpredictable, you'll probably get the plot within the initial episodes but the growth of characters as an individual and the bonding they share is what keeps you seated.Min Hui's struggle as a single mother in a male dominated corporate world was real, she did what she had to do to survive. Xin qi was right to be angry about the misunderstanding, he didn't saw it coming but later his understanding for the whole situation was applaudable. He wanted to fill the gaps and he sure did, it wasn't easy for min Hui to suddenly accept him again because a relationship doesn't last long if anyone has trust issues to begin with, so it was important to be on the same page. Their chemistry was truly very natural, both were at their best with the kid, always a pleasure to watch them together.
I would definitely re-watch some scenes just to feel that warmth again.

Definitely not a re-watch drama
I liked the gradual build up in the initial episodes but as their story further unfolds, you will find that there was nothing really to tell about. It was highly unrealistic, female protagonist was consistently shown in a bad character, if you want me to hate her so bad why not make her a villain. Her behaviour could even be justified but you got to make room for audience to do it, instead every other character in the drama is shaming her for it.The chemistry between them is also weak, at some point you wouldn't even want them to be together because it seems to look like a toxic relationship, which includes yang yang patronising her most of the time.

K-drama of the year
The script is so well written that it doesn't give you a moment to relax, the cast is exceptional at their job. You're most likely to remember the characters for life.A fantasy supernatural drama but touching some of the very real dilemmas in the world. I was most impressed with the way even the supposedly villains have a back story and you'd rather not hate them but feel bad for them.
It's witty, it's emotional, it's romantic, it's very human. Maybe that is the crux of it, super humans are also humans at the end of the day.
