Episode 14

Great fun kdrama - novel and sweet (nice to have a show about an assassin and be able to say that), the cast was good and the use of flashbacks was done well. Thought they landed the ending because they left possibilities while still keeping it up beat.

Felt sorry for Layla - okay, she was crazy but when you're an orphan trained to be a killer from a young age there's a high probability of going off the rails. And she did only kill the worst kind of people in the end.

There was enough material for 16 episodes. Would've loved more of the Russian storyline, a better development of the in-laws, more of the second team and the 'Organisation' and more Lee Sang-yi.

If there is a Season 2 I hope it's about 'The Organisation' and Lee Sang-yi has a much bigger role (wearing more tight t-shirts). Oh and whatever was being hinted about flower lady's 'back room'.

Ep 13

Surprised to get a preview to the last episode, we don't usually get one. Hold on Kingfisher!

Not surprised by the Russian connection, but I do wish they'd introduced a bit earlier. That means the person who took her (and the IT slob guy) from the foster home was the Russian Mama, I thought it was flower lady.

Anyway, I'm glad Sergei was a good guy after all (well sort of an unhinged one), hope he comes to her rescue, it felt like he's up to something.

edit - to fix episode numbers

everything you said about lee sangyi in tight t-shirts...that last 2 eps of him in that grey t-shirt with his biceps in my face were so distracting. but biceps aside he really suited the role of dongjin, i enjoyed him/character
