Yeong-min's friend Go-ni, (Jang Hyuk), also partakes in card playing. They then cross paths with Madame Jeong and her apprentice Mi-na (Han Ye-Seul).

Taja Dec 21 2016 11:54 pm If you liked Tazza, check out All In 2003 starring Lee Byung Hun and Song Hye Kyo, one of the dramas hailed for making the K Drama king internationally, also has one of the best soundtracks. Another fav of is Swallow the Sun 2009 with Ji Sung and Sung Yu Ri.

crushonyou Sep 25 2015 7:50 am Korea should make a remake of this and not some other Chinese dramas or novels. This needs a remake. The story line is exciting and adventurous.

kupukupumu Aug 27 2015 9:28 am Just wondering, is this drama really produced and released in 2008? The background looks so old, i.e., cars, TV, no handphone, etc. In 2008, (South) Korea for sure already have flat screens and mobile phone everywhere. Just curious.

Erdenebat Jan 02 2015 3:56 am This drama is very interesting drama that i have watched. Main role actors are very talented people. Also soundtracks are cool. You can see casino game, fighting, love and revenge.

mimiya May 03 2014 6:14 pm Obviously a great story w/ great well-developed characters, that is why so many spin offs!... ....Very interesting and exciting...not a dull moment... ... Excellent romance set in the world of card gamblers... ... Well written... ...Great acting.... Jang Hyuk and Han Ye-Seul had great chemistry....Although it is a traditional k-drama, it is very well executed !!!

meleskiiy Apr 10 2014 6:15 am what a great movie

Hebe Mar 12 2012 5:22 pm A great drama that when you begin, you won't give it up. Love Jang Hyuk and Han Ye Seul!

Gasenadi Feb 21 2012 9:31 pm Although it seems like a clone of All In, this is one good drama. I'm a sucker for dramas in which medical expenses wreak havoc in people's lives. And also for big-hearted friends wanting to help, but getting in trouble for doing so. This is one roller-coaster ride. Then, the ending is so sweet with it's "moral" of the story and Jang Hyuk making the rounds among the ajummas. Loved it!
