oh boy, we waited over a year for a show with tons of promise and a hell of a cast. the novel was meh... but they often are. then the show was nothing like the novel and less than meh.
i would have dropped it if it wasn't for the amazing acting.
the story was inconsistent: was Bambi a brat, selfish, traumatized, confused...? well yes, depending on which episode you watched. Min had occasional amnesia and a case of character assassination. you can't leave an abusive relationship just to expect a yes woman as your next partner. if only Mim's character had a story and some backbone there could have been so much to their storyline. I'll never get over the whiplash the transition from ep 8 to 9 gave me when it comes to ShashaGorya. but Shasha has the best story out of all the characters.
PLEASE can someone let GMMTV and their partners know that audio quality is important?! I don't wanna hear blown out voices and yelling or the crinkling of someone's shirt.
The amazing dramatic scenes (Shasha adressing abuse or Bambi's breakdown) never amounted to anything and got wiped away immediately, sometimes within seconds.
you can tell they switched the writing team around halfway.

all the actors were phenomenal. some of the intimate scenes, when not just implied, were well done, others not so much cause the camera angle was off (looking you, at hand under shirt while on vacation)

I'm grateful to have this but the entire production team needs upskilling and to never touch gl again. harsh I know

but no one can say that the girls didn't give their all. many friendships formed due to this series. let's celebrate that
