I know lead actor Jung Jae Young from his movie – Going by the Book (2007) – great comedy which I enjoyed it very very much.
Very happy that Song Yoon Ah is the lead actress. Will definitely watch 😛 😛

unexciting synopsis, are korean producers running out of stories
July 10th, 2015 at 10:27 pm
The only point of interest for me in this drama is definitely the act of our idol group member Taecyeon from 2PM

Jung Jae Young is a great actor. Maybe I will watch since this is his 1st TV serial.
August 7th, 2015 at 11:23 am
So far, this is a great show. It deserves far better ratings. It hard to get myself to start watching since politics is such a turn off, but I am really glad I did. Great cast and well done story. Hope the potential carries through to the end.

Politics is a dry subject am surprised that with exciting storyline and the right selection on cast, even my hubby who is not a korean drama fan is following this series closely
September 11th, 2015 at 3:34 pm

Episode 19 is heartwarming. It is a political drama worth watching.
September 17th, 2015 at 11:51 pm

I am an ardent fan of Korean serial and ASSEMBLY was one of the best serial that I enjoyed. Outstanding !! Wish we had a politician like Jin Sang Pil in Nepal.

A good drama. Good storyline. Never a dull moment. Basically it is for mature audience.
October 18th, 2015 at 3:48 pm
Excellent drama, excellent actors/actresses. Why oh why… are most intelligent dramas so lowly rated.

I am sad to realize upon following the story of this Assembly drama that Ok Taecyeon is actually taking the role of a modern Judas Iscariot in the story. This Assembly drama actually the catalyst of the popularity downfall of Ok Taecyeon by taking this distasteful role or character.

This drama Assembly ended with the re-election in the Assembly of the corrupt Park Chun Seop which we characterized him as the Senator Franklin “Baboy” Drilon in the Philippines and the so called Avatar Assemblyman in the person of Senator Francis “Matsing” Panganiban in the Philippines. The story does not eliminate the Traditional Politicians who seek re-election in the Assembly despite of their corruptions. The writer of this story didn’t emphasized that Traditional Politicians are the real crooks and corrupt people in the government.
