Its literal title was Scandal in Old Seoul where Japanese occupation, resistance fighting, assassination plots, political schemes and Snazzy dancing took place. All was too intersting specially Kang Ji Hwan. He was non serious and too hilarious throughout the serial. The drama remind us of Bridal Mask. You can say a same theme drama in a different vibe.

We enjoyed a lot every episode and its sequence. The first encounter of Woo Wan with Yo Keyung at the station was too dramatic. She said Cuckoo he replied "Cuckoo .. may be its already flew to its nest". It was Yeo Kyung who take Wo Wan bag thinking he is the messenger and when she open there were magazines with bold pictures.

It was another hilarious scene when Woo Wan help Yeo Kayung and save her form the police and she threat him by pointing gun at him. There were 3 most hilarious scenes we enjoyed and remember when ever Seon Woo Wan try to get an introduction with Na Yo Keyung at first she left, when second she punch his face and thirdly she pull a gun. How brave she was to act like this.

Woo Wan was the son of a wealthy Korean businessman.  Due to his father's support of the Japanese, they have retained their wealth and position of power in society.  In essence, his father is a collaborator.  Woo Wan doesn't take life seriously, and is an obvious playboy. He roam around the Seoul, wrote stories in newspaper.
