Spell bounded storyline with unique characters arch

The premiere episode sets the mood and is slow at times, the continuous time lapse leaves you confused but still manages to keep you hooked on wanting for more, the music and cinematography deserves it fair share of credit due as it is not only exceptional but helps viewers to understand the tone and emotion of the respective scene

The way this show showcased light on dating abuse is applaudable the clear cut details which are at times disturbing but shows only a drop of reality is a eyeopener to the corrupt society, the power struggle which the law at times ignores and completely turns their eyes away end up causing a huge difference and trauma to certain individuals , the way the victim's side was explored, the hesitation, the emotions the individual feels when going through such toxic phase in their life and how hard it for them to accept the fact that they are indeed victims and require courage and determination to overcome such phase to start new and learn from such disturbing incidents and their aftermath of finding hope

The first four episodes are rather slow and makes you question your sanity at times but it least in a good way and does not make you feel overwhelm with the amount of information the show wanted to convey

Han Joon Hwi our golden boy who seemingly has it all but the the emotional scars he has due to feeling of betrayal by a close one remains hidden to the outside world at least for a bit, a uncle whom he considers the most important person and gradually drifting away from him and the emotional imbalance with such changes. His close relationship with the professor how he cares for him or at time you really question his intentions towards him, his down to earth personality but with a notch of arrogance from all that academic excellence really makes him stand out , the emotions he displays in the initial episodes really gets to you and you sympathize with him and at times question what is he even doing

I really loved how Kang Sol A she was hella relatable we always see these bright smart kids who end up in a prestige institution but never learn the struggles one has to go even when giving it your all, the way she never gives up and works hard it's rather unique and quiet admirable character trait which many of shows do not showcase . In the initial episodes she was exhibiting as a dumb and immature FL but gradually you see her character arc broadening I love her character development and admire her courage she never holds back from expressing her opinion and her priority to clear her doubts which often leads to her giving us second hand embarrassment is a con and a pro but hey we've all been there ain't that the case chief

The professor's dedication towards his students is some next level shit man even when is being questioned to prove himself innocent he strives and changes his course to treat that as a lesson for his students , without making it obvious he always motivates and encourages his students to strive harder for their goals and is always there for them , even when one doesn't believe he gives them benefit of the doubt and never lets judgement from society get in his way to treat every individual fairly. In the second half which can be clearly observed and his morals which even lead him to resign being prosecutor shows authenticity and sincerity to once profession and importance to certain element in life

The focus on power struggle and rich getting away from their crimes have been highlighted but karma comes to you and gives you the taste of your own medicine it's enjoyable to see the responsible individuals losing their mind and paying for their crimes.

The storyline is quiet enjoyable in the first half but the last few episodes becomes increasingly predictable the story lost the attention of viewers at times gets kind of draggy that but still you can't really predict what gonna happen and who is responsible for it

Overall really enjoyed the show kinda wish it had bit more romance but oh well the storyline and characters made that empty hollow in my heart go away
