A masterclass in character writing...
I'm kind of at a loss for words...
This was such an insanely superior drama, I can't believe people don't recommend it very often and it's not rated as highly as a lot of below-par romcoms on here.
I found the characters extremely well developed by the writers, which was truly so impressive and so above my expectations.
The written contrast between the ML and FL was so interesting to see, how one tends to avoid blame while the other takes on others' blame, and the way they circled each other and balanced those traits out and grew as people. Something about that felt so literary, it kind of reminded me of the character development you see in Jane Austen novels, but considering the fact that Wuthering Heights was referenced multiple times in this, I guess there was more Bronte to it than Austen.
The other interesting part is character X (who I will not name, to not spoil it for anyone)'s descent into madness. It was an absolute rollercoaster to see. That development felt SO natural and organic but so shocking at the same time, some scenes with X had me gasping at 5am and pausing to talk to the invisible cameras in my room.
This was an absolute 10/10 watch and I recommend it to anyone who appreciates excellent writing.
