Yes, i enjoy watching this drama. I’ve watched until episode 13, and I don’t have any negatif comment for it. I regreted it a little that I used to postphone watching the drama since it’s an action one.
All actresses & actors are good in their acting. can’t wait to watch it till finish!

among the best korean actors it’s lee min ho who catches my attention.why?its because hes a natural actor.and you will really see how passionate and lovable he is.though when he went here in the Philippines he didn’t know how to speak english and he needs an interpreter but still i love the way he answered questions and smile as if he belongs here where in fact he should feel uncomfortable.But it did not register in his face..and the more i see his smiling face i smile too..that’s how contagious his smile.
