I marathoned this kdrama thanks to Dramafever over the Thanksgiving holiday. Oh boy, the angst and the unbelivability of it all, but hey it wouldn’t be a kdrama if it was believable right? Uhm Tae Woong plays Seo Ha Eun, a cop in Violent Crimes. He’s in love with his adopted sister (he’s the one that was adopted not her) Eun Ha and tries to keep it in the strictly brother/sister zone.

Obviously, that doesn’t last.

Life goes on in a normal kdrama day until Ha Eun gets a case that leads him to his past. Turns out he and his real father were in a horrific accident, when he was 7, that left his father dead and he without a memory. Someone took him to live with his current family, while his real family (including his twin brother) were left to bury empty boxes.
The more he gets involved with the case, the more unanswered questions about his past come to light. The big baddies don’t like the fact that: 1. Ha Eun (who’s real name is Gang Hyuk) is still alive & 2. he’s investigating the current case as well as what happened to him and his father 20 years ago. They set him up to look like a crooked cop and he vows to find out why.
During all of this he meets his twin brother, Shin Hyuk.

Their reunion is short lived though when the big baddies kill Shin Hyuk, thinking he’s Ha Eun. In true kdrama fashion, Ha Eun decides the only way he can get revenge and find out who killed his brother and father is to, of course, take over Shin Hyuk’s life. He then turns into this business genius/psychological madman and torments the people he feels are responsible for everything.

Now I’d like to interrupt myself because at this point I need to ask, how the hell do people NOT know this person isn’t Shin Hyuk? Yes they’re twins but somehow Ha Eun knows how to run a huge business successfully without having been to school for it.  I wish I were that smart. 0_o 

Anyway, while Ha Eun was busy pretending to be Shin Hyuk, Eun Ha (his sister/girlfriend) is slowly going crazy with her depression. And I mean slowly. She walks slowly. She eats slowly. She talks to people, S L O W L Y.

 It doesn’t help that she starts working at Shin Hyuk/Ha Eun’s business. She sees him and really thinks she’s going insane. It takes a while but she finds out that he really IS Ha Eun. They go on a date which was cute but again, I was frustrated by it.

How is it that they aren’t seen by anyone that they work with? Is Seoul that big of a city? It seems like they stay in the same neighborhood for the majority of the show so I would think someone would be on their way home, see them, and think “Hey! Isn’t that the VP of our company? With an employee?!?”  0_o


I like this drama but I really wish that it was only 16 episodes instead of 24.  There was so much slow walking, staring off into distances and unnecessary love triangles that I was really getting annoyed. But hey, what’s a kdrama without it right?
In the end, the big baddies get punished and Ha Eun gets his name cleared. Does that mean he goes back to Eun Ha? Would it be a kdrama if he did? I guess you’ll have to watch it to find out. Out of 5 stars, I’ll give this one a 3.5.  Have you seen Resurrection? What did you think of it?

Oh and PS,  I loved the OST to this drama!
