A decent thriller that shows what greed does to people

I found it from out of no where , literally no buzz, no proper subs yet found it decent and enjoyed watching it.
If you compare it to a book you read the first half and found it interesting , You turn the page and every character feels new and different in the second half . The story pace is quick and the plot twist's are new and refreshing.

It is basically about cookie addicts , family bonding and betrayal upon betrayal. The only strong bond i found in this is family bond the rest is all betrayal and greed.
The characters are twisted and dark , you can literally trust noooo one in the drama.

This is basically one of those dramas where they do something bad and unethical and blame it on the past traumas , helpless situation and greed to become rich. By in the end as one of the characters says " all of it is just an excuse".

In the end, do i hate any of them , definetly NO. Yet i cannot overlook the little yet obvious plot holes here. They show a person has full power and is invincible yet the next second they show the same person is vulnerable and weak.

Moral of the story :-
If you expose your weakness , vulture like humans will not think even a second to take advantage of it and greed can get you to do anything and ur mind will probably give you a concinving and reasonable answer to it.

I would say the hero here is ... not Soo Young... not Ho so, not seong pil, not minyoung BUT " The cookie"

If you are into mini thriller series who thinks little plotholes are bearable and enjoys excellent actor , you can give this a try. Every episode has something new at times dumb things for you.
