Everything about this S Korean drama is top notch. The story moves along with no slow boring bits, actors are believable and really invested in their roles. Camera work is nothing spectacular, but then again, this isn't an art house film. Technically, 100% right.

The story, which is basically all a movie/series needs to keep the audience invested, is well written, with intelligent, believable conversations even while watching with subtitles.

I won't go into all the details of the two main families, but it's all twisted political intrigue, with flashback explanation helping carry the story.

Episode 12 - the last: Reality. I found myself shrieking at my TV. OMG NO!! That did not just happen!! Why, but hey, that's good TV. Worthy of the 12 hours you'll invest and the 9 stars I gave.

So far everything about this drama is just so gripping. I watched Park Hee-Soon in 'My Name' and absolutely loved him there (and the drama as a whole) he has not let me down in this drama either. I've only watched two episodes so far, the acting is fabulous, so much so that I actually don't know which actor to trust and believe are genuine. Can we also take a moment to appreciate the OST too. This drama is the first time I've come across Kim Hyun-joo, also great acting and I'm keen to find out what her secretive past is all about. All in all, if you like a drama that's a thriller, not too fast paced and definitely not too slow, showing a strong bond between husband and wife - this drama is for you!

The story was supposed to be a good one but the decision of Ms. Kim was so below par only thinking of herself, the thoughts and sentiments of only 2 people and not her daughter and the rest of the society in general. I for one can't accept her decision, I find it selfish and not right. She could have moved forward of her choice when everything had been accomplished, thus even her daughter not suffering the harassment of her clasmates because of it. With that, everything could have been better for all concerned. It's a pity, it didn't materialized and the core of the story wasn't achieved. That's a pity.

The story telling is exceptionally good. They intertwine different parts of the story together very well, and also explores the two sides of every coin. However, the key concept behind the story was exceptional weak. It boils down to amending a particular law. No lawyers worth their salt, nor any sane persons would agree to whatever it was that this show was proposing or advocating. I just don't like it.

Fyi, if you charge a person with a crime, the accused must be alive to defend for himself/herself. If he dies during the 'investigation', he shouldn't be scapegoated into being the 'guilty' party.

This show is one of the most intriguing I have come across in a very long time. Also proves why K-dramas are seen in such light.

The mysters is ever evolving, just when you think you've finally come to the bottom of a certain character's persona, something happens. Till episode 8th, the story has been very gripping with some new developments that shocked me to the core.

You just can never know someone well enough and this show is a testament to that. They depth in each character, the secrets they are hiding, and the their actions are such a tease.

One of my favourites. Definite recommend. If you dont like to wait for episodes airing every week, wait till it is released in full then binge it. Will be a much more satisfactory watch.
