So good that it made a kdrama-watcher out of my dad!
A complete surprise gem. We came across this show by accident, one day and we were so intrigued we decided to watch the whole thing. What a thrilling, standout show it was. Good cast, great atmospheric build-up, and a plot worth staying tuned for.
This was a great drama that awakens feelings of anger, justice, and revenge in your heart and delivers a satisfying end for it all too.
The show follows artist/mother/wife, Yun Su, whose life is turned upside down after she finds her husband murdered in his studio. The level of injustice that the police and the defense attorney exact against this poor woman is so severe that a serial killer offers to help her get away with the murder that she probably didn't commit. Still, there is a price to pay for it.
So good. The suspense is one thing. The sense of Han that it sparks in your heart is a whole other story. And then, everything with Kim Go Eun's character, Mo Eun, is a whole other thing, as well! I love a good morally grey woman. In any capacity. She just needs to be written well, you know? But it's so hard to find one. The writers are either too timid or too eager when writing women and they just ruin them. But this show was perfect. Focused mainly on these two women, their struggles, their baggage, and how they literally have no one but themselves to crawl out of the dirt, I finally got a show that truly gave women the justice they deserved.
The acting was also amazing. Across the board. The protagonists and antagonists alike. But Kim Go Eun really outperformed herself. She's one of the best and most diverse actresses I see out there who truly embodies a new personality in every show/movie. It's not just picking different and good scripts, she works to deliver as well. Jeon Do Yeon was also amazing. She has this nervous energy in the entire story that makes her character not feel like a character but an actual person.
I don't remember the music. Which is good. It must not have been annoying!
The production was great too. You know it's good when you don't notice the effort. Just everything looks and feels natural.
I don't know how to properly compliment this show. It was just such a great watch. We couldn't look away, and it was so good my dad who never wants to watch Kdramas was glued to the screen too! Great drama! Go watch it!
