Interesting series that took it too far
Original storyline. Interesting plot twists. Great acting. This series has a bit of everything - until it has too much of it. Just when you think the madness and sociopathic behaviour will stop, this series goes all out to prove it can all get just that little bit worse.
In my opinion, the extreme behaviour depicted, and the ability to get away with it, brings a level of unbelievableness that was hard to digest. Furthermore, the fact that most female leads are depicted as pathetic, unable to stand up for themselves, talk or even function as normal human beings severely takes away from the overall feel of the series (and yes, they supposedly grow through the episodes..). I guess my issue is that this is yet another show depicting women unable to decide to break-up with a boyfriend on their own - where aggression, violence, threats and even attempted murders against women all are allowed to happen without consequences.
