Lots of Acts, Unbelievable Story...and Suzy!
I think I laughed more during this serious drama than any other one I have watched. The story was so far fetched and so many twists and turns that it was hard not to shake your head. How most of the main cast did not die in all those different violent scenarios was so unbelievable. With that said, I really did enjoy this series. There was plenty of action, and although mostly all over the top, it made for very entertaining viewing, Isn't that what most action movies are like- highly unlikely scenes, unbelievable stunts and explosions. I was never bored or turned off, even during the most outlandish scenes.For some reason, this drama reminded me of one of my all time favorites, Descendants of the Sun. The feel and location filming gave me the same vibe. Very effective method to pull you in.
Lastly, got to give it up for Suzy...she is awesome! This is my 2nd Suzy series- finished Start Up a couple of weeks ago and I thought she was great in that. This was a different role of course, throwing Suzy in many physically demanding scenes. I think she pulled them off in a great way. I am going to watch her past series to get more of this great performer.
probably been over 3 years since i switched to Asian Dramas and i still haven't tired yet. I look forward to seeing even more entertaining shows.

Firstly, I would like to say that I've enjoyed this drama. It had a really nice plot and seemed to head somewhere. In my opinion though, at some point the pace of a story became too fast and it was hard to keep up with the storyline.
Luckily, the cast didn't dissapoint me. The way relationships were created is the best thing about this drama. As I expected, I was amused by Bae Suzy. I also appreciate Lee Seung-Gi acting in this drama.
Sountrack makes another advantage. I actually love it. The two song appearing with the end credits - "Breaking Dawn" and "Open Fire" are my favourites.
Summarising, I've docked my rating due to the not-the-best plot twist.

If you like action, it may be worth a watch
Finished the show in a week! It was an entertaining show, and I enjoyed the action sequences. I definitely don't buy that a stuntman is better than trained special forces and practically invincible, but this drama isn't about the realism anyways haha There are many twists and turns, but also a tad predictable if you are a fan of similar shows or movies. Mostly fun to watch, but not a show that will have me thinking about it for long afterwards.Ending didn't anger me as much, but I was getting less invested as drama progressed and knew it would be open ending. What was annoying is final scenes were exactly the same as the beginning...felt lazy like was there really a need to start with those scenes? I think they should've shown less at the start for a more impactful ending.

The Queen Suzy Bae back in action in an epic story that got pushed back a lot of times. First planned to start in may 2019, it was pushed to august, then premiered september 20. Releasing later to have the time to finish is normal and I'm all for it. But if somebody is reading this and haven't watch Vagabond yet, I'm sorry to tell you that the drama has no ending... Like Arthdal Chronicles, The story and the cast are top notch and if you dont mind "open endings" (that are just open to criticism in my opinion) then go for it watch it. Nice characters, a love story slowly developing and not pushed down our throats, Showcasing of Morocco (even if they sometime jumpcut from city to city randomly) and many more aspects that I looked forward every time I watched an episode. A good drama from begining to end, but it does not end so... it pissed me off
