Hierarchy: A Colossal Disappointment
3/10
For some context, I have watched a lot of dramas and series and lowest score I've given up until now was a 4. I like to categorise and rank all dramas I watch according to the rating I give them. This show opened a new category lol.
I watched this drama in 2x speed, I never do that. That just shows how bad this show is.
One of the reviews I raid said, "It's a pointless love triangle story marketed as a murder mystery". And I agree because it's just that. This had so much potential yet the writers didn't capitalise on it. I'm not gonna lie but the show had a pretty good build up to the plot in the first 2 episodes, but they just lost it mid way through.
The death of the lead's character also has no effect to the overall plot here. I mean the teacher accidentally killed him? Where's the spice in that? Her character is near irrelevant to the plot here. I know the bullies confessed and apologised and were held accountable for their part. But seriously thats it? And some of the scene, man... Did the writers want the us viewers to sympathize with these condescending rich bullying pricks?
This show is the definition of being mediocre. The acting, the characters, the plot, everything felt lacking and were mid at best. I mean the lead actress was expressionless throughout the show, a corpse has better expression than her character. And also zero chemistry between leads. Characters in wattpad stories have better depth to their characters than the ones in this show. The only thing that was decent in the show was the soundtrack. It was good.
We've had many dramas similar story to this such as Bitch x Rich, Revenge of Others, Soloman's Perjury etc. and each and every one of those dramas, blows this one out of the water.
