the 2024 surprise of the year!
the main theme? i was skeptical... the storyline? sounded cliché... first episode? meh...
i gave it a chance because of the good local viewrship!
i was glad because this is a whole world of a story!

best thing about it?
ITS A STORY THAT DEVELOPS SEAMLESSLY
that's becoming a rare trait in kdramas, unfortunately...
this is a show taken from an original russian tv show that had 5 seasons and movies! they had all the chances on their side to make it a success , and bravo its already renewed!

the Main actors and side characters were all amazingly played! they all had their personality, deph, meat!

the drama had the perfect blend of episode cases and the ML and FL arc stories.

i also loved the jazzy music, the 'personnified' inn soo, his victory/cool sign, his logo, it was all well done to be iconic!

the things i liked less? sometimes reveals were a little overdone... the story can be predictable but its always engaging!

i'll be tuning for s2. i'll try not to watch the original in the meantime haha
