This drama had so much potential with it's story and script overall. Let's start with the positives, the acting of the cast was absolutely phenomenal especially Jung Hae In whom made every scene so emotional, gripping and serious. The magic of eyes in acting is so evident in here and it's effective because of Jung Hae In. Phenomenal acting from Yoon Se Ah as the strict and mysterious headmistress, Pi Seunghee and Kim Hye Yoon as the broken and annoying Kye Boon Ok both were just phenomenal but what can you expect? both actresses also did fantastic in Sky Castle. Let us start with the story, it begins with a bang with a lot of mystery, emotions and beautiful cinematography but it began to falter in the second half thankfully Kang Cheong Ya was introduced and made the story interesting again. The political and spy parts of the drama was confusing which can negatively affect the viewer's attention. If you can't make your viewers understand the main aspect of the drama which is the Political Warfare and Betrayals then you have failed. The romance between the two leads was cute but nothing special but the chemistry was there. The ending was so messy, they jump packed everything into two episodes, Man Dong's character being revealed to be a spy was poorly conveyed and the deaths of the character was also poorly executed except for Soo Ho's death scene which is probably the saddest yet best scene in the drama. The 207 girls, Kang Cheong Ya and Soo Ho's sisters disappeared without a proper conclusion on what happened to them. They also under utilized Young Ro's character, I felt like she was just a background character the whole time.

The drama had ups and downs with a poorly written second half, but it had a promising script, a talented cast and beautiful cinematography to make up for it's flaws.
