PLOT: Cha Dal-Gun (Lee Seung-Gi) is a stunt man who dreams of becoming a world famous action actor. His career is floundering, while he tries to take care of his nephew as his guardian. His nephew takes a flight from Incheon to Morocco for a taekwondo exhibition, but the flight crashes. In Morocco, Cha Dal-Gun sees someone that was a passenger on the fatal flight. He becomes convinced that someone or some group sabotaged his nephew's flight.

Go Hae-Ri (Bae Suzy) is an NIS agent and is currently working undercover in the Korean embassy in Morocco. She is tasked by the embassy to help the bereaved families from the fatal flight. Cha Dal-Gun turns to Go Hae-Ri for help in finding the man he saw in Morocco who was a passenger on the flight. Soon, Cha Dal-Gun and Go Hae-Ri uncover a far darker and more sinister conspiracy than they expected.

"Vagabond" reunites Seunggi and Suzy after six years! It's a good start for me and Lee Seunggi once again proved to me that he's such a good actor. He made me cry on the very first episode! Suzy of course still gets so much hate for her acting but I'm neutral. So many kdramas premiered this month I've been thinking of creating a post that lists them all with a short summary and cast list so Omona can choose which one to pick up. Maybe tomorrow =)

Is suzy tolerable in this

For me, yes (so far). The first two episodes were mostly with Seunggi =)

I was going through some reviews on other sites and of course most people still hate her acting. But I did find some of the comments funny like they said she's supposed to be a secret agent but she doesn't act like one. I just feel the person who made that comment kind of missed out on the conversation between Suzy and Seunggi's character where he said that for a secret agent she seems dainty coz she was tied on a chair couldn't save herself and Suzy said that she got in the agency because of her brains not her physical skills. I also think a good secret agent is one that is not obvious so maybe she's acting out her character well lol

I didn’t know Hoon would die(didn’t read synopsis/know anything about the show) so yeah, def cried. Really strong episodes.

I watched teasers, read the plot summary and character charts so I have an idea what's going to happen but I still cried! I felt Seunggi's pain when he saw the news about the plane crash.
