A paradox of a show

This drama is a mystery to me.

I find it incredibly surreal how a show, where every single character without any exception is absolutely unbearable, can still leave you glued to the screen from start to finish.

There are some of the most cringeworthy moments in the history of motion pictures in this show. To the point where you'd want to poke your eyes out with a Bic pen. Yet still, you are somehow constantly left wondering about what happens next, and sometimes even rooting for some of the above-mentioned unbearable characters.

Maybe under some hypno spell secretly inserted by the show-makers, or maybe because I'm, unbeknownst to myself, a masochist, I was somewhat rooting for the male lead. Even despite his personality and its consistently representative obtuse expression on his face, having assured him first place in the contest for 'Being more punchable than a sandbag'."

I wish I knew before starting this show that I would be thrown down to the worst hell of all for an MDLr. That being the agony of choice: do I give it a 10 or a 1?

I guess this show is one of those paradoxes of the universe that will forever bug the brains of humanity. Beautifully awful and awfully beautiful. And since witnessing a paradox is bound to be a memorable experience for just anyone, I surely do recommend trying to watch it.

But be prepared, you're up for a very unusual, to say the least, ride.
