Kay lives with his mother in Thailand who
works as a prosecutor, and deals with the Thai-Korean mob. She made a promise
with Kay that when she finally is able to deal with it completely they’ll
return to Korea together. He lost his father at a very young age: he was an
agent in the Korean force, but due to a secret assignment he lost his life, and
is nowhere to be found, so Kay has never really gotten to know about him from
his mother. He meets Ari, a rich girl
whose father is a gangster, but the daughter has never been involved in that
business, but Ari’s mother is fed up with it so she seeks comfort in her house
bends friend, and the two start an affair. Ari and Kay become close friends,
but when Ari’s father finds out about the affair, he is keen on killing the
lover, so Ari and her mother are forced to leave Thailand. At the same time
Kay’s mother’s arrest goes wrong, and they are unable to arrest anyone useful,
but leave’s a mark on Kay’s mothers back. That same evening Kay’s mother
finally decides to tell Kay about his father, only to be killed in front of
Kay, by a masked gangster who happens to be Ari’s father.
10 years pass, Kay, now Lee Soo Hyun (Lee
Jun Ki) lives with his mother’s friend and the family with their son Kang Min
Gi (Jung Kyung Ho), both with a good relationship. The two became trainees at
the Korean National Force, like their father.
Even though Soo Hyun is a better police officer than Min Gi, the two’s
relationship never had a stain, until Min Gi falls for a girl, who happens to
be Ari, now Seo Ji Woo (Nam Sang Mi), whom Soo Hyun reconnects with…
I sort a feel bad for the rating, but I
really am having a hard time with rating this drama. I have had the toughest
time watching it. I actually found every episode long, and stuffy, not to
mention draggy. Started watching it because of Lee Jun Ki, and was disappointed
honestly. The Lee Jun Ki in this drama is over acting, way too much, and the
chemistry with the lead actress is depressingly non-existent. I really didn’t
like her character, tried, but unsuccessful. The one I like was Jung Kyung Ho,
even though I don’t like the actor (or didn’t, now I do) - and that is because
of his character, and decent acting.
The story is well thought, but just
becomes… not boring but not catchy… Some
people might like it, I really think they would, loads of action and the entire
revenge idea (reminds me a bit of City Hunter - just more messed up).
