Unexpectedly great and very realistic drama

This is a little bit slow-burn drama. On the first 3 episodes I've watched I am like "another affair drama so cliché" but then it suddenly show it's true colors and made me really into it. And here I am, I finished the drama and can't get over it.

The storyline started as a mystery riddle on who the hell is this great man and good husband's mistress in the team. It was masterfully played as everyone seems to be the mistress until they start to reveal the life of these girls one by one. Woman 1, the girl who really looks sophisticated and elegant full of confidence and secrets. Woman 2, the girl with ambitions and a working mom trying to excel both at home and at work. Woman 3, the woman who looks really naive and nice with very low self-esteem and is deeply wounded. The wife who's almost perfect until she knew that his husband is cheating. I won't tell anymore about the story but so far this is the summary of the first 3 episodes that made me literally sleep.

All of the characters really justified the role realistically. I cannot imagine this drama with a different set of casts because it will really feel off. I love that I find myself rooting for the characters, cursing the characters and crying with the characters as if I'm part of them. I rarely feel connected in a drama in a way that I feel moved and relate to them as if it's happening to me. The songs used in this drama is very subtle and it fits perfectly in the mood. It wasn't overpowering and it definitely not distracting.

This drama really exceeds all of my expectations and has a lot of life lessons as to how to value yourself and deal with the struggles in the world. It's like a reminder that it's not just you. All I can say are words of praises for all the casts and writers and everyone who made this drama possible. It really deserved all the attention it got from the public and I really really recommend it.
