This is one of the most tear-jerking, and brilliantly written pieces of writing I've ever seen. Not only does the story provide historical information on how poorly the Koreans were treated back in the 1900s, but they somehow successfully managed to make a purely tragic tale into an exciting one that people can really enjoy. Easily one of the greatest shows I've ever seen, not only out of Korean dramas, but in the world. During the entire drama, I was never left scratching my head, questioning what happened to the ___, or why does ___ happen, that made no sense. Each little detail was weaved into the bigger scheme of the plot and all in all by the end, the story was perfect. 10/10 Masterpiece, easily.

Set in the thirties but some cars from the fifties

Truly inconspicuous! The drama made me mentally and physically drained and exhausted with each single episode from the ridiculous godly amount of insane lousy shouting. I went to an ENT doctor and he told me I needed a new brain transplant since the old one was incapable to perceive any type of sensory stimuli. Huh. This drama was the equivalent of a nagging little spoiled brat roaming around you non-stop for no purpose other than seeing you losing your sanity or equivalent to a fleet of mosquitos determined to penetrate you as the last human left with suckable blood. What I'm trying to say, if the director was really entranced by vibrating vocal cords then he should've brought a real man to do the job. On a small side note, I find this period and setting of Japan/Korea to be the worst to watch through any media. They "almost" don't know how to go on about it. I can count a few rare exceptions on one hand.
