Hope the writers have a sense of "noblesse oblige" & not make Season 2!

This drama fails on so many levels, the only reason I endured as I wanted to know whether my theory on the culprit was right or not. Otherwise this drama has no arresting factor on why you should watch. When it was announced, I called that it seems like a cross-over of Elite, Gossip Girl, Penthouse, Glory & related shows. But this more like watered down version, where the writers picked bits and pieces from all of it and made this total HOT MESS of a show.

The plot was shallow - it depicted the glamour/bullying but had no substance/depth to keep the audience engaged. The acting was "cardboard" stuff, no character arc was built & their motives had no logic - running around the 7 episodes like headless chickens. I literally fast forwarded episodes just to get to the end to know the culprit & whether justice is served. But neither the show throughout nor the finale had any power/impact to wow me at any given second.

The genre/theme is already saturated but clearly this is one of the worst dramas of 2024 so far. Nobody gave it much thought and probably banked on marketing alone - as people would watch it for the hype. Calling it an average drama, is me being kind & for the sake of the artists who took a risk to act in this HOT MESS!

✘ Highly Recommend to SKIP IT & watch other shows in this genre/theme! Remember: Your drama time and braincells are precious ❤️so think carefully before watching!
