This drama is really good, but one thing I didn't like was how Zhang Qingya didn’t face proper punishment. It’s frustrating how villains in Chinese dramas often don’t get the justice they deserve. Is there some unspoken rule about that? In contrast, I feel Korean dramas handle revenge much better. The villains usually get their rightful karma and punishment, which makes the whole experience so much more satisfying.
This drama would have been a 100/10 for me if San Ha had at least slapped his mother once, or if his father had stood up to her, even if it meant confronting her harshly liking slapping or even hurting her physically as she did to others. I don't know why it's not domestic abuse when a woman slaps a man in these dramas whatever the reason be while even the smallest of things from man can get them under domestic abuse case.
The mothers in this drama are incredibly frustrating—it's almost as if they would have done their children a favor by not having them at all. I fail to understand why people choose to have children when they are unwilling or unable to provide proper care. If they don’t want the responsibility, they should consider abortion rather than bringing a child into a life of neglect. I never imagined mothers could be portrayed as so terrible until I watched this drama.
In my opinion, a mother’s primary role is to provide love, care, and nourishment, while fathers should offer emotional and financial support to create a sense of security for their child. This drama, however, highlights that even mothers can fall far short of these expectations. It’s both disheartening and eye-opening.
Many…but we have a good endings for WenXiao, ZYZ, PeiSJ and ZY.
ZYZ, Ying Lei, and Bai Jiu are dead. While ZYC saved one part of ZYZ's soul, we don't get a conclusive ending regarding ZYZ's return, so I would say it's an open ending.
Frankly, I enjoyed his character progression the most. I feel like it's very on tune with an actual victim of…
I get where you're coming from—it’s true that Han Da On’s journey is relatable in many ways, especially for someone who’s been through so much. That struggle between wanting justice and feeling powerless against a flawed system feels real.
For me, though, his character wasn’t so much about growth but more about hidden contradictions coming to light. He held everyone else to this strict standard of morality, yet when he was faced with the same choices, he didn’t hesitate to abandon his ideals. It felt like he only cared about justice when it suited him, which made his shift feel less like a meaningful transformation and more like his true self finally slipping out.
But I get why you enjoyed the complexity there—it’s refreshing to see a character break away from the typical “always-follow-the-rules” mold. He’s raw and messy, and that’s something a lot of people would probably relate to if they were in his shoes. Thanks for sharing your perspective; it definitely gave me a bit more to chew on when it comes to his character.
