Me watching ?????????????

Here are my thoughts on this drama:

This hot mess, 'Circle of Love,' is enjoyable if you enjoy slap/kiss dramas and don't take it seriously. I would not recommend this if you're looking for fluffy, fun drama. However, if you want something wild, toxic, and sensational, this is the one for you. On a Thai slap/kiss scale, this drama is below mid; on a Chinese one, it is a good one, maybe one of the best. I honestly laugh throughout this drama, I was only silent at the ending, because I was shocked the writers did what I wanted, what a perfect ending.

The themes of revenge, blood feuds, amnesia, and toxic relationships are similar to Maid Revenge. The leads have hot chemistry; their kisses and steamy scenes are delightful. Overall, if you liked Maid's Revenge, you'll like this too because of its similar theme, better acting, a smarter female lead, and more steamy scenes. If you're looking for something wild with a little twist and shocks for some, you'll probably enjoy it. However, don't take it too seriously and watch it for entertainment value. There are some sadistic characters in this. Yes, ML is a sadist, maybe FL too, she might also masochist because someone of her actions is questionable. Every character is hot mess, but enjoyable, one thing this drama is not is boring.

It may contain spoilers:

In this drama, all the characters are morally gray, one of its most appealing aspects. The characters are interesting, and the story keeps you engaged until the end. I predicted most deaths in this show except the 2FL I was actually shocked; and yes, I predicted the murder-suicide ending, so fitting for such a drama. It is hands down one of my favorite endings, which is why I would rate this a 9. without that ending, maybe an 8 or an 8.5.

Might be rewatchable for some, but one and done for me.
