This review may contain spoilers
darker premise, but too much circling
Overall: 50 short episodes, vertical style. Aired on Lezhin Snack app (5 episodes per day for free by watching ads, except the last 5 which was super annoying)Content Warnings: rapes (off screen, not between the MLs), manipulation, drugging, kidnapping, beaten up
What I Liked
- different premise
- visuals
- acting
Room For Improvement
- the journalist could have easily video or audio recorded something really early???, the plot circled a lot
- they needed more time spent in the past, I was confused why 1 character allegedly disliked the other character so much
- several scenes were too dark
