It begins with an intense, messy political situation and never lets up. If you are a non-Korean speaker I would suggest you access a media site that will give you a list of the charactersโ names (like MyDramaList) so you can keep up with the whoโs who of the intrigue. Whether you are a political idealist or a skeptic, this series is for you. It is a character driven drama, expertly played by the leads. I followed Shin Min-aโs filmography here. She brings a grounded charm to this role. The plot is intense. The stakes are high. I give this series an 8 (gripping) out of 10.
Excuse me while I go happy cry over the fact that the second season lived up to its predecessor. :sneezing_face:

Although it's politically themed drama but it's a watered-down surface-level politics and the excessive overdramatization didn't fit its theme. Repeating the exact same dramatic flashbacks multiple times throughout both seasons further highlights my point. It ended up relying on these melo moments rather than having a better written political drama and a more engaging dialogues as you would expect from a good political drama to have. What also didn't fit its theme is the male lead constant overreacting and overacting for his role. The romance of the main leads and the pair up of the secondary leads were all out of place. On the other hand, the OST was nice, it reminded me of Comrades (2010). The drama is okay if it was your first political drama, can serve as an easy introduction to the genre.
