Synopsis

Mchas Preah Athith Yes, I did rate this a 10, but let me explain. If you look at my other reviews, I’m not usually this generous so I do have my reasons for giving this one such high scores in every category.
The story itself actually had a nice, steady pace. From my drama watching experience (and I have watched quite a lot), the show usually gets draggy around episode 10 to 14. This was NOT the case. From the very beginning it was so action packed and fast paced I wondered how the writers were going to keep this interesting for another 15 episodes. They proved me wrong though, and every episode felt like 3. The story itself, granted they did have the advantage of a unique setting, does not use the same plot devices as other dramas. It was just a perfect mix of humor, suspense, romance, and action. Those are very different genres but they managed to do it really well. There didn’t seem to be a central storyline, but instead it was quite episodic which would usually turn me off. The drama, however, had such a good flow that I didn’t even notice, and although the conflicts are episodic the romance and relationships between the characters were developed consistently.

The cast did so wonderfully. Not only were the main actors amazing, every actor breathed life into the supporting characters. They were not just there to support the leads. Each one of them actually had their own distinct personalities and characters that added so much substance to the show. The chemistry between the leads and the second leads was one of the best I’ve seen. Because of the setting and the dire situations they’re put in, you can clearly see the development of the characters. And as a side note, though some of Song Joong Ki’s lines may come off as cheesy as hell, he pulled it off so well I almost didn’t even notice how cheesy they really were. In fact, they just added to his character.

The music is just so so so good. Usually I only find one or maybe two good songs per OST, but right now I have the entire OST on replay on my phone. It’s that good.

That said, I would definitely definitely rewatch it. Normally I would have a couple critiques on my reviews, but honestly I couldn’t have asked for a better show. Sure, the show has become really mainstream and may come off as overhyped, but that doesn’t mean it loses it’s value. If you’re hesitant about trying it, don’t be. Of my 140+ dramas, it’s climbed to number 3. You won’t regret it!
Now I’m just going to go into my little corner of post show depression :’)
