*As an aside to address another review's criticism of the edit/scene shifting, this is unfortunately common for Disney produced Kdramas, and should not reflect negatively on the work itself.
For starters, I love this cast filled with favorites at their best. The first episode really draws you into the imperfect dream of living at the top of the food chain humanely. Unfortunately humans lack generosity, humility, and grace, especially those with money and power. I was immediately drawn into the concept, and kept at attention by the affects of the various mysterious characters and trying to figure out their angle.
These more condensed Kdramas, due to less filler and more tightly woven storylines, can sometimes come across as rushed to those of us used to the more leisurely Kdrama stroll. But having seen and enjoyed several of them now, I've come to appreciate this style. There is little time to get distracted or bored because nearly each scene adds an important layer of detail and story progression.
I found the ending quite intriguing. I find myself both satisfied by some aspects, and exceedingly excited about a more fully satisfying total conclusion. It's an interesting feeling to appreciate what they did there. I'm not frustrated, I'm excitedly anticipating. They really had better have that season 2, though. Highly recommend.
