I made it to the half-way mark of this series before finally deciding to quit. There seems to be many good reviews of this series, so I had high hopes, and I am already a big fan of Kim Young-Kwang, so I thought this would be a win. Unfortunately this show turned out to be a bust for me. This is actually an example of a show that I think would have been much better had it been restricted to a movie. After watching 10 hours (up to episode 11) I could already see the same plot devices repeating, making for a frustrating viewing experience. The cast is expansive, and while they do tend to focus on a few main characters, they should have focused the most on 4 or 5 instead of 10 - 15 characters.
In the end, I just became too bored to spend any more time waiting to see where this show was going to go. I liked a few of the characters, but not enough to keep watching.
