Story: I enjoyed the story very much. The main story focuses on the relationship between Baek Dong Soo and Yeo Woon, but the interesting thing about the story is that it is not just about these main characters. We get to learn the stories of the other characters as well and the way they develop keeps you interested in the Drama. The strongest points of the story is its beginning and ending, but the middle of this is also very important. It is however sometimes confusing, but the confusion fades away while watching. You must pay very much attention to the beginnning, because you will get lost if you don't remember it very well in the later episodes. The thing that made me love this drama the most is the bromance between Baek Dong Soo and Yeo Woon. It is displayed as a very strong relationship which can never be ended. Plus, it contains everything that one wants: Action, adventure, revenge, romance (not so much), drama, comedy (mainly in the first episodes) and betrayal. It did not make me feel bored at all.
Acting/cast: I found most of the characters interesting and well-played by their actors/actresses. My favourite characters are Yeo Woon and Chun. Yeo Woon's mysteriousness, coldness and generally his personality made me love his character instantly (you can add to that the fact that he is played by Yoo Seung Ho). I didn't really expect less from this man. Chun is just impressive in every way. From his appearance and his swordfighting skills to his personallity. Ji Chang Wook as Baek Dong Soo was also really impressive. In general I didn't find any flaw to the acting or the characvters except one of the female leads, Ji Sun played by Shin Hyun Bin. It was my first time watching her and she didn't impress me at all. She didn't express much emotion and it was like she had the same expression almost all the time. That's why I gave acting/characters a 9.
Music: The music is just awesome! The music for the fighting scenes was really nice. I liked how they blended tradition music with rock music. And since I like Rock I found it really interesting. The other songs such as the ballads were really nice too. I actually downloaded the whole ost and there are a few songs I didn't like so much. It also fit to almost every scene
Rewatch value: I don't really rewatch dramas, that's why I gave it a 5. It is a bit long too. But for everyone who likes rewatching them I think they would like to do so.
Overall: Baek Dong Soo is a great historical drama which contains everything, others in much amount and others in small amount. It will keep you interesing till the end. I would recomment it to everyone, wether they like historical drama or not.
Edited for some grammar mistakes.

Story: The story started fantastically good and went like that for many episodes. I could never be sure who the real killer was. I had many suspects, but I could never know for sure who he really is. The twists were also nice. The story of a copycat killer is something I have never seen before. What I liked very much is how they focused on two murder cases att the same time, increasing the mystery and interest. The truth was unexpected, something that made me like it even more. I didn't feel bored through at all, as situations keep changing in a interest way. Romance is not something that takes a big role in the story and I think it was perfect as it was. What I didn't like, though, is that some situations seemed too unrealistic and out of no where. I didn't find the ending that good, it could have been much better.
Acting/casting: I have a thing for psychopaths in dramas, so Ryu Tae Oh became my favourite character right away from the start. Lee Joon did a fantastic role displaying his emotions and psychology. He really made me raise even more the respect I have for him as a whole person. His developement was nice and believable. I think he is a unique character, making me wonder what he may be thinking and what he is going to do next. Not your typical serial killer. It was the first time I saw Yoon Sang Hyun 's acting, and I must say he did a really nice job as detective Ha Moo Yeom and I could see the reason behind his actions. The one I didn't really like was Kim Min Jung as Dr. Oh Maria. Her acting didn't impress me and I didn't like her character, having an "alter ego" from time to time.
Music: The music, from Every Single Day's songs to the instrumental tracks was excellent, fitting to the mystery and suspense atmosphere. I really like it.
Rewatch value: I don't rewatch dramas.
Overall: I think Gap Dong is a really nice mystery/crime/suspense drama for everyone who enjoys these genres and not only. It surely has its flaws, it is not perfect, but they didn't make me lose interest in it. It was worth-watching and realy nice, in my opinion.
