Definitely a tearjerker at times. I didn't cry at the emotional scenes but they sure left a big impact on my feelings at the time. That's where this drama excelled. Compelling characters that mostly have a lot of depth - Shin Joon Yeong and Assembly Man Choi for sure - met with emotionally driven scenes. Our main character is dying so we are stuck with this inevitable sense of dread. The character doesn't go with the easy choice of simply ending his day's with the women he loves. Shin Joon Yeong instead decided to give No Eul the justice she deserves while making up for the guilt he has for his previous actions. It leads to some frustration but it turns out to be necessary and it shows how great of a person he was.
