Review
Was note expecting this to be so much of a thriller, I think it ended up having few too many turns of plan/counter-plan. The end was surprising to me and felt like a movie end, not a TV show end, let alone a Korean TV show. I may look up more from the writer and directory which I think is pretty high praise even if this show didn't entirely hang together.
