    Such a fun watch

    It's a good series, though pretty fast-paced and with a lot of characters and relationships to track. There's an ungodly amount of double-crossing and backroom-dealing from both the good and bad guys-which is hardly surprising, since this is a political drama.

    Lee Jung-jae is always fantastic, and he really nails the morally grey protagonist role here. Even when his character, Jang Tae-jun, is doing the shadiest of things, you can't help but root for him. Of course, that's essentially the argument his character makes-that to defeat scumbags in power and bring a positive change to the world, one must also become powerful-even if means using questionable tactics to do so. There are moments in this series that will have you questioning just how far this man is willing to go to get his job done. I won't tell you how that all works out for him, but it's a really great journey full of twists and suspense.

    An enjoyable watch with a solid cast.

    Another perfect Korean serie

    Some people says that political series are bore.

    This one, as Borgen, can be a perfect introduction.

    It's good... Real good except...

    The show was suspenseful and dramatic just fine. I would only give it a medium rating because watching this old man playing the M. O. J eat in like every other scene was distracting and DISGUSTING. Who's idea was that and please fire them forever. Yuck. Totally took away from potentially powerful scenes. So i guess I'd just say great writing (other than that the genius main character would just leave game changing evidence in his desk drawer. Not believable even for an idiot.) Great cast. Bad directing. Ew made me sick watching him eat.

    Must watch

    Hope they will return with season 3

    Excellent Political Thriller

    It can be impossible to follow a complex plot in a foreign language with unrecognisable names. But persevere into episode 3 and the political shenanigans start to become clearer. If you stick with it you will be rewarded.

    Many of the strengths of Korean drama are on display here: deft plotting with twists and turns galore; superb acting by all involved; and high production values.

    The moral conundrum at the heart of the story serves to raise this a notch higher in my estimation. Highly recommended.
