    Good Start, Decent Climax, Bad Ending

    The drama started off on a good note with an interesting plot and well-developed characters. The pacing was just right, and the audience was quickly hooked. As the story progressed, the tension built up, and the climax was decently executed.

    However, the ending of the drama fell short and left many me disappointed. The resolution felt rushed and unsatisfying, with loose ends left untied. Overall, the drama had a good start and a decent climax, but the bad ending overshadowed the earlier positive aspects.

    You can stop watch till eps 6, if you have time in your hands continue until the end but know your risk.

    Excellent Twisting Turning Political Drama

    I liked the sound of the plot and the series had some very good reviews so I decided to give it a go. After a slowish start, with the scene being set, the drama, skulduggery, Intrigue, mayhem and more began. The story depicts a rich and powerful Korean corporation and the lengths they would go to to broker deals and gain power. To help them with this, they employ a Fixer. Hang Do Hee, who is adept at manipulating anything to the corporation's advantage. She has been a loyal servant for ten years. Something happens to make her question her loyalty and the story begins in earnest. The acting is excellent throughout, with really nasty baddies and really good goodies. The plot has more twists and turns than the Nurburgring! It depicts a world of politics where trickery, corruption and bribery are rife, with the media and the police all in the pocket of the wealthy corporation - nothing like real politics then! 😁.

    My wife and I enjoyed it enormously and 11 episodes was just the right length. There is some talk of a second season and there are certainly more avenues that could be explored. Well worth a watch if not a binge watch! A 9 from me.

    Superb acting

    The actresses in this movie were superb. Bingeworthy, and not a typical story. It's complex, dark, sad, but also full of hope, redemption, loyalty, and justice. Who doesn't love a good underdog story? The villains played their characters to a T, but also were complex. Character development for some characters were good, but wished there was a bit more background on the heros. Nevertheless this is worthy of a high rating and was definitely gripping. I would almost characterize this a political drama, but it's so much more than that. It's got depth, grit and no nonsense fillers...meaning in 9 episodes they cover enough and give you closure vs unnecessarily keeping the storyline going.

    Excellent

    Completely addictive and riveting political drama, with some very solid humorous moments that balance the darker themes.

    I don't think I've ever seen a more sincere and powerful portrayal of female friendships and relationships. Korean writers are by far the best at building complex, interesting, and strong, female characters. Television shows rarely centre female bonds like this. The characters don't sit around talking about men or their insecurities. Their relationships show depth and authenticity.

    The performances by Kim Hee-ae, Moon So-ri and Kim Sun-Young were outstanding. The scene where Oh Kyung Sook and Hwa Soo break down together was so well acted, and genuinely heartfelt.

    Another great Korean show.
