Finally I've seen not cute and shy Ueno Juri, but the opposite one. Her character here shows a lot of her devil side who sees nothing but revenge. Sometimes her cold-hearted decisions and eyes made my hair move. I like the Alice in Wonderland story theme used as kinda hunter guide tool. Such an artistic idea, feels like a thrilling ribbon going through the drama. I'm glad here is no a lot of medical issues. Medical scenes take may be only 20-30% of drama time. Most time there is something else like conversations or other actions outside of the hospital. I'm glad that this drama has no actual romance. For me, this drama misses some deepness and realism. Mizuno Asumi doesn't look capable enough for such severe actions she does. So it's not totally unrealistic, but quite so..It is more like fiction than real life: There are too much of twists in characres and plot. Also I'm confused and irritated with how at first some disguisting villains are suddenly later shown to have their sensitive, innocent and kind side. And opposite - at first innocent and kind ones turned to actually be villains... The villians are aslo the kind of too obvious and too nonsense villains who barely exist in real life, with lack of intrigue. I think this drama is raw and need alot of improvements. I felt also here are too many flashbacks. Nevertheless this drama is catchy. Twists are still dynamic and interesting. Scenes are beautiful. I never watch something just because I started to and have to finish at any cost. I always drop when I'm not interested or put on hold when I it's not bad but not captivating enough. This drama was one of that I didn't wan't to drop neither to postpond. Soundtracks here suit this drama very well.
