REVIEW:
I liked this drama, but I don't really have much to say about it.  I mean, I liked it and all, but I still hate the amount of time you have to use in order to watch it.  It's like...  Well...  Yeah, I'm really just lost for words on how to describe the feeling that I get when I watch a long drama.  If a drama is an action series, the plot is usually so interesting and complicated that you can barely look away from the screen.  However, when it comes to family or romance dramas, it makes me impatient.  I feel like I need to go walk or something in the middle of an episode.  Maybe that's just me.

In any case, I enjoyed the plot and the way that it was produced.

P.S. Omo!  Do you recognize that painting in episode 3?  The artist of that painting is Shin Yoon Bok, which was depicted in the drama The Painter of the Wind.

Strongest Chil Woo

Rating: ****

Genre: Period Drama
Episodes: 20
Cast: Eric, Lee Eun, Jun Noh Min, Koo Hye Sun, Yoo Ah In

"Kang Chil Woo is a lowly officer during the Joseon era. Chil Woo is not a very smart and one of his life long goals is to become a midlevel officer. However when night falls, he is no longer that low level officer but instead a top assassin in an assassination organization. He gives out punishment to criminals and gives justice where needed. So Yoon and Chil Woo have a tragic love story. Yeon Doo is the daughter of a fallen yangban who owns a textile shop. She falls in love with Chil Woo after he rescues her from thugs who were harassing her. "


Strongest Chil Woo is a lot like spray can cheese. It's fun and cheesy with just about no nutrition in it. The drama is a very light take on more serious situations. You'd think that the characters in this drama (who've all gone through many trials and tribulations) would be a bit more serious. However, I kind of found the silliness quite fun. Even though there were "transformation sequences" like in power rangers (lmao), and the fighting scenes were a bit unrealistic it still was interesting enough to keep me hooked.

P.S. I never knew how gorgeous Yoo Ah In could be before this drama. I swear, when he has his long wig on he looks so pretty. I'm jealous. I wish I could look as good as him hehe XD
