exceeded all my expectations!!

I never write reviews but this is the first time I felt the need to just note something down. I honestly had 0 expectations going into watching this drama. I just genuinely loved Park Eun Bin in Extraordinary Attorney Woo. I just needed more of her in any drama, really.
I'm not sure how helpful my review is, but one thing to take from this.. just watch it if you haven't!!
+ the OSTs are also great!

This popped up on my Netflix a little while ago. I've had it added to my watchlist but hadn't watched it until beginning of this week. I binged the first few episodes and I was just hooked from the first episode onward. I repeat, I had 0 expectations. I didn't even know what this kdrama was about. I loved the development of the story. I loved how the story kept unfolding and how it constantly kept me on my the edge of my seat. This is not your cringey, mainstream, predictable storyline. Was it predictable? Maybe, but for me, this was full of surprises.
This for me, is a drama I wish I could watch for the first time again. I will probably rewatch this one down the line.
I would describe this drama as a wholesome drama with a sprinkle of darkness. (small spoiler ahead)

However, I was a little taken aback and shocked with what was happening in the first episode. I had some issues with the domestic abuse that occurred in this drama. I was in full shock as to why there were no people that offered their help or stepped in whatsoever. I briefly read another review that mentioned this too, and I 100% agree. I won't add too many words about this. I will say that in a way it triggered me in a negative way. I think this part is the only remark/issue I have with this drama.
