personally i really enjoy this series the actors are pretty good .. i honestly think as this show has progressed having watched all of them i really have to say it has some really interetesting what if senarios. as far as concept ... compared to traditional american drama id pick something like this any day.. maybe im just a fan of asian culture who knows but i find it a lot more appealing to me .. and this is in response to cl .. to be honest if you havent been a hard worker most of your life your more then likely going to miss out on the concept of working your way up from the bottom even if this senario is slightly unlikely in real life .. i dose add a sense of inspiration.. this i think is what the series is really about taking a guy who wouldnt normally have the chance to meet people like mak go an and bringing them togeather ... the only thing i really dont enjoy after watching the entire sereies so far is how hurt the lead gets after all of this it reminds me of a really bad day and ... i have to say if he ever finds out the mother is behind his grandmothers death that would just blow my mind .. lol any way this is a great series .. i wouldnt bash it until you have watched it al the way through it just keeps getting better.
