Synopsis
In A Love to Kill, Bi (Rain or Jeong Ji Hoon) plays a tough guy as the role of a K-1 Fighter, Kang Bok Gu. Bok Gu is a character who is dynamic in nature and grew up in a foster home. He falls in love with a woman whom he should not love. It was because of the woman, his emotionally-wounded brother fell off from the rooftop and became a human vegetable. So, his love is forbidden and inevitably tragic.
The woman is Cha Eun Seok (Shin Mina) who is a TV talent and movie actor. It was not that she jilted his brother on purpose, but upon a basis of misunderstanding, his hatred toward Cha Eun Seok grows more and more burning.
By becoming Cha Eun Seok’s private bodyguard, Bok Gu keeps concretely practicing his revenge upon her. He only desires ‘to bring his brother’s woman to her knees.’ He is gradually taking Cha Eun Seok to destruction, while he feels his love toward her growing deeper and deeper in his heart.
Bok Gu is a cold guy character without any special concern for woman. Martial art of hand-to-hand fighting was just kind of his escape he choose from the shock of a spinster’s death whom he loved from a distance.

Well, there was Rain.:) If U want to see a very hot Rain, sexier than any other series I’ve seen him in, then watch this one. Expect lots of drama and a sad ending.

Though there are a lots of cliche and certainly not very original, this is still a fairly good drama.
****some spoiler below*************
There is some ambiguity regarding whether Shin Min Ah survived at the end as it showed her eyes moved a bit with some tears. However, the bottomline is does it really matter? She has lost her will to live on, and after learning what has happened to Rain, will she continue to live on? Obviously not.
