Why You Should Be Watching: Her Legend

I already did a recap of episode 1, but I guess since I stopped at that one I feel like I should give a reason why it's a good drama. 

Her Legend is about Eun Jung Soo(Choi Jung Won)'s love and success story as she works her way up to design luxury handbags, Do Jin Hoo(Kim Jung Hoon) the man who will help change Jung Soo's fate, and Eun Kyung Hee(Son Eun Seo) who has to hide who she is in order to succeed. Instead of my usual in depth reasons for watching, I'll just list them.

3 Reasons Why You Should Watch Her Legend

1. The acting - This reason may seem cliche, but it is a very good reason why I continue to watch it. You already have Choi Jung Won(Brain, Stars Falling From the Sky), Kim Jung Hoon(I Need Romance), Son Eun Seo(May Queen), and Park Yoon Jae(Faith) as the main cast. Then we also have a seasoned extended cast who are all doing a great job and making this story believable.

2. The plot/characters - Okay, so the story may seem too makjang for some people, I thought that as well. But as angry as Kyung Hee/Kim Seo Hyun may make me, I really want to see her pay for all the hurt she's caused Jung Soo. The story is strong and the writer really gave Jung Soo a backbone once she discovered she'd been lied to by the ones closest to her. The revenge is not really revenge in that way, just Kyung Hee trying very hard to cover up for her lie.

3. It's loosely based on a true story - Her Legend is loosely based on Kelly Nam's life and how she became who she is today. Nam is the founder of Helianthus, a company that designs handbags. See? Jung Soo wil get a happy ending! Yay!
