I loved Navillera, it was a wonderful drama (helped because I adore the music of Don Quixote and it's the one ballet I've been to the Royal Opera House to see - twice), I enjoyed Nevertheless as well.

I gave up on Sweet Home, I just couldn't get on with the story, despite people on here telling me I needed to have read the webtoon to understand what's going on (and I think I do now).

It's The Demon that's made me remember him particularly, he's put in a very memorable performance in that.
