Whoa. One of the best shows I've seen. Filled with real human drama, excellent cinematography, outstanding talent. My only grievance is the portrayal of the two main baddies - way too comic-booky for my humble taste.
Everything else works, though. IU gave an outstanding performance as a wronged young woman, the male lead was a strong match. Very little melodrama, plenty of action, the dialogues are brilliant, observant, and the English translation is superb, at least for the Netflix version. Each scene is full of meaning and propels the story forward. Loved how the characters developed and didn't stay static.
Along with Black, this will probably be one of the very few shows I'll rewatch later on.
