I thought this movie produced a wonderful performance by Ryu Jun Yeol as the blind acupuncturist. The movie was drove by his performance and likeability, and that connection he was able to establish with his audience.
The drama was gripping with intense thrills, even though the plot was very simple - something we've seen so many times before.
And there was also a group of great supporting characters as well as the main antagonist played by Yoo Hae Jin.
I only wished that there were more scenes with actual acupuncturing and its affects because the concept and process always feels like an interesting mystery.
However, at the end of the movie, after all was said and done, the wrap up wasn't done properly because we did not see what happened to the other supporting characters, like the another very lovable and comic-relief played by Park Myeong Hoon. He and his love-interest, as well as the young prince, were completely neglected right at the end.
Otherwise, I would have really enjoyed this more; but still, a very nice and random find that I wouldn't mind watching again.
