City Hunter

City Hunter

When you first meet the leading lady, Kim Nana,  you are instantly enchanted by her. Her love for her father is truly admirable.  You also cannot help but love her spunky and confident attitude, not to mention her beauty.

The male lead Yoon-Sung / Buchai , you instantly love as well.  Preparing to deal out  his revenge he  learns a lot about the world but at the same time is naïve and ignorant to so many things. As he unravels the secrets of his past you can't help but feel sadness for what has happened to him and the path that he was put on.

There are quite a bit of fight scenes in this show and Yoon-Sung's  skills as a fighter leave nothing to be desired. He Leaps, and flies, and soars all without breaking a sweat.

Jin Pyo/ Steve Lee  plays the ultimate bad guy. His motive for vengeance so strong that his desire to kill overcomes all.  As the father and sons plan for revenge plays out lots of twists and turns begin to unfold and eventually they play on opposite teams. Bae Man-duk/Bae Shik-joong who plays a sort of mother figure to Yoon-Sung is the perfect partner in crime. The sheer cunning of their plans and actions that follow are amazing. The way the two whisper back and forth is hilarious.

I really enjoyed Prosecutor Kim Young Joo's journey through this show. The pain, heart ache, and growth he goes through to reveal the truth and catch the City Hunter is truly admirable.  Then by making the ultimate sacrifice he becomes a hero of justice.

As Kim Nana and Yoon-Sungs lives begin to collide, they are very cold and stand off-ish to one another. As the show progresses they begin to have feelings for one another and they start a back a forth banter of feelings and emotions ,although they try to hide it from one another. The first time that they kiss I was caught completely off guard, it was very cute but totally unexpected.  As the rest of their story continues to unfold, their struggles to save their love begin to seem impossible.

As this story comes to a close , the sorrow and tragedy it brings is truly heartbreaking, but has a beautiful and moving ending.

This show was intense, action packed, full of forbidden love , and passion. The struggles of the individual characters to achieve their goals is thrilling and heart wrenching  all at the same time. This show has it all. I really enjoyed this show and hope that you will too!!!!

I would give this a a very well deserved...

 5 out of 5 stars!!!!!!!!!!!!
