I just rewatched it and I think its intentionality of not answering all the questions viewers will have was a good decision. After giving it enough thought, I could understand the rationale behind most of Sarah's actions.

Pretty sure being out-of-focus was a stylistic choice for the past scenes.

It wasn't that ambiguous tbh.

Yes, exactly. It may not be everyone's cup of tea but that doesn't mean the subject matter is bad.

It's astonishing how some people think the show is "promoting" luxury brands when the criticism is so on the nose...

Inventing Anna is an American show

I would argue that this is better than Inventing Anna (which I found obnoxious), but yeah not as good as Gone Girl.

I found it a good watch and it was easily bingable. Wealthy characters were portrayed like actual people and not baboons, and Sarah's scamming ways were engrossing and complex. People's obsession with luxury is reflected as it is in real life. Sure, there were some unrealistic parts here and there but that doesn't matter much to me. One critique I have is that the investigation felt pretty basic, it was mainly Sarah's scamming and backstory that made it worth the watch. I think it also helped that I went in with the right expectations.

First episode was actually quite humorous at times, I like that it's not overly serious while still being intriguing.

Not sure if it's related to the duration but the reviews are mixed, some praised the narrative structure and some said there was too much going on. I will start it soon as well

Read some reviews so far, which are positive to mixed. Most praised the themes and SHS's performance but some criticized the mystery for being too convoluted for its own good. Seems like it's still worth watching but you need to go in with the right expectations.

I agree, Netflix used to be the platform where creators can get bold and unrestrained with good budgets. But now it's unfortunately also taking the safe route.

That's a good sign, though korean reviews tend to be more critical (and thus more reliable imo) than the international ones. I'm waiting for reviews from the local press.

What's with the cringey names for upcoming romance dramas... what the heck is Filing For Love 😅

I think they are leaning towards creating more romcoms. It might be a budget thing or an attempt to maximize viewership.

After watching the clip, I have concluded... that I don't know what's going on 😂

Now who approved of "Love O' Clock" lol. But looking forward to this nonetheless.

I have to admit that I rewatched the baby's scenes because he's just too cute...

Oh yes I think it's his bag!

Anyone knows how Geumbo figured out Yehpee was the manager without seeing his face? (I know it will be revealed tmr but I'm curious)
