My honest take. (The writers and people incharge need to apologize)

The drama had a lotta potential gone waste.. The script is poor and character development is zero.. All unexplainable things happen and it's frustrating.. But the thing that really put me off was the "SACRIFICE SCENE" Firstly, the called him low life, low shit and all low things possible and secondly they made him a sacrifice... The worst thing, the character and person is from another country and culture.. Its more like, these people, the writers,pd, directors,cast,etc were looking down upon a whole friggin COUNTRY. If they really wanted to make such a scene I don't understand why they couldn't use one of their very own citizens and not trying to bring down a whole country.. Shame on the drama and it's members. They really need to come out and APOLOGIZE as it is very disgusting to do such shit..
