Poor plotting, lack of chemistry, no identification with leads

The plot is way too contrived and relies on several clichés and ridiculous, forced external conflict to develop. Lack of patient confidentiality is central to how the story develops, which to me is demonstrative of how poor and inorganic the writing is.

Overall, I thought this show's plotting was on the bad side of soap opera, with much of the conflict coming from deranged stalker psychos that push the characters forward. At one point in the show, the FL basically says outright that she didn't know if their relationship could last because she was out of danger from a stalker. And that's just it, their relationship seemed fueled by forced feelings of obligation brought about by antisocial deviants, more than from the chemistry of the characters themselves. I don't want characters falling in love because some sick paparazzi pervert pushes them together, but because their feelings emerge naturally from their dynamic, personalities, and freely made choices. Having some shamelessness in setting up a plot is fine, but this show is shameless throughout.

The leads are passable in their independent roles (the ML more than the FL), but I felt like they were poorly suited actors to pair with one another. Visually, they didn't work for me, and I thought their roles and acting were also incompatible. It wasn't convincing to me how their romance developed from antagonistic to loving. I really like this dynamic which is what attracted me to this show, but here it didn't work. Their dynamic seemed more like uncle and niece, since the actor is obviously way older and more experienced than the actress (and yet the age dynamic isn't brought up). She does a bit too much deer-in-the-headlights, doe-eyed listening, especially early, though there were aspects of her characters I thought she did well with. Her friendship with her sister is very engaging and cute (as is the sister's whole character honestly), and she's well-suited to the underestimated, shallow idol type. As far as my viewing went, though, I didn't feel any strong connection to the leads, their motivations, or the choices that they made.

Lastly, I felt like like the ML's powerful memory should have both caused more conflict and been able to solve more problems. The show didn't maximize the potential of its setup and focused too much on a weak, and frankly confusing, backstory plot. I wouldn't recommend this, especially for those who prefer character-driven stories.

Leo Wu carries this drama...don't watch this for Sean Xiao

10/9/2021

As I continue to search for great martial arts dramas with amazing fight scenes, I stumbled onto "Fights Break Sphere". This is actually not a traditional wuxia/martial arts drama, but more of a fantasy drama. The drama ends with a small cliffhanger as to what would happen to our ML next. But don't worry, it has a good enough closure that I think it's safe to watch Season 1 and patiently wait for Season 2 with a totally different cast.

Leo Wu, not Sean Xiao - First, watch this drama because you are a fan of Leo Wu. His acting is great and carries the drama on his back all by himself. Do not watch this drama because of Sean Xiao, Li Qin or Xin Zhi Lei. This drama is all about Leo Wu's character and how he developed from a 15-year old without any great martial arts skills to be the savior of the world. Sean Xiao has a very small part in this drama. He's only one of the side kicks. Li Qin also has a very small role and only appears in a few episodes. I even find her character quite annoying and she appears a little too old to act young and naive, and definitely looks too old to be Leo Wu's love interest. Xin Zhi Lei's part is even smaller. I don't think she has more than 30 minutes of screen time.

Strong female cast - Even though all the female characters are only in the supporting cast, I am happy to see that they are all strong women with great martial arts skills. They are no damsel in distress and are not whiny and naive. They get stronger throughout the drama as they themselves continue to learn and develop their skills. Our FL supports ML in his fight and is always ready to come and save and help him.

Romance - Romance plays a very small part in this drama. I was hoping to see more developed between Xiao Yan and Xun Er. After the side story of Xiao Yan and Xia Yi Xan, I was waiting for Xiao Yan to realize that he truly loves Xun Er and not only sees her as a sister. I never get that satisfaction. Even up till now, I don't really know if Xiao Yan loves any of the girls. Maybe I have to wait for Season 2 to find out.

JianNan Academy/Hogwarts - Jian Nan Academy reminds me of Hogwarts (from Harry Potter). Students learn to fight, to cultivate and to make medicines from different teachers specializing in their crafts. Doesn't it sound like the different lessons in Hogwarts? They also have different colored uniforms, like the different Houses. JianNan Academy is protected by a seal cast by the Fight God, just like how Hogwarts is protected from enemies. There is even a marketplace for students to buy and sell, just like Hogsmeade. The snake that they fought against reminded me of Nagini, the sword that ML uses is like one of Voldemort's Horcruxes! Isn't the big bad guy Voldemort? Ok, maybe it's just me because I love Harry Potter so much.

Fighting/CGI/Music - I was excited in episode 1 when I saw our ML practicing his martial arts skills, the Fist Techniques. I was impressed with Leo Wu's movements and can see how much he's rehearsed. His movements are full of strength. I was cautiously optimistic that I found a good wuxia drama. Unfortunately, this is not it. The rest of the fight scenes are full of CGI and not actual fighting. The CGI is ok, nothing to write about. Music is not memorable. Well, except for the ending theme sung by X Nine. The ending theme is so upbeat and modern that it felt out of place. But then, the more I listen to it, and think about the drama about a bunch of teenagers trying to make it into the world, I start to enjoy it more. I then looked it up and realized 4 members of X Nine are the side kicks of our ML, including Sean Xiao.

A little on the short side, but still good.

The star of the series is definitely Cheng Chang Fan who plays Kyan/Kane, even though it was hiss first series, he portrayed the character and the emotional side better than anyone. The story itself isn't overly complex and it really didn't need to be, but it does cover some very realistic real life situations that often times either get glossed over or go to one extreme or the other. I will say there are a few spots where it does suffer from the duration of the episodes, but it's nothing really deal breaking. I do wish there was better chemistry between the actors of the two couples, but again that's something that usually works out over the long run with longer duration episodes that this series didn't have.

Overall, it's worth a watch especially with how short the episodes are, and it's not nearly as bad as some make it out to be.

I don't really recommend this.

I'll start this off by saying that the FL is the only reason I'd ever consider picking this back up. The acting from the other characters doesn't bother me like it does for some other people, and I genuinely enjoyed most of them, but what really ruins everything for me is the ML and the female antagonists. The ML gets so insufferable as time goes that he might as well be a different character after the first episode. Not only does the man constantly cause unnecessary issues in his and the FL's relationship, but he also always finds a way to blame it on her! When he was kissed another woman? FL's fault. When he berated and grabbed FL because he believed she'd sabotaged his chance at a role even though he had no reason to believe so? FL's fault. Even when he doesn't blame her he still doesn't apologize then acts like she's the problem because she's angry. It's all just so irritating since it's set up where FL is supposedly the selfish diva (she is sometimes earlier on) but she as of episode 8 has not been the cause of any of their issues. My only real issue with the FL is that she always forgives the FL seconds after he does something which makes me more upset. When the ML yelled at her about his role, all he did to make up for it was cook her breakfast! He never apologized and it was just never brought up again. It was so bad that I even enjoyed the male antagonist more than the ML sometimes. When it comes to the actor that plays both female antagonists all I have to say is that she seems to only be able to act out 1.5 emotions for both characters which makes me dislike them both even more. The actual story itself is ok-ish. The whole side plot of the evil uncle trying to sabotage FL and her dad being in a coma doesn't really need to be here since it seems like it'll only be focused on in the last few episodes and provides almost nothing to the story. I also don't see why they apparently killed the little brothers mother off if they were just gonna have FL dump him on her in-laws in the countryside even though he continually shows that he wants to be with FL. If they didn't really want FL to have a kid around all the time the could have just kept his mother alive so she could keep raising him and FL could just spend time with him. There's a lot more I could say that irritated me if I went back and reviewed every episode, but this is getting long so I'll end it here by saying that I'd only watch this if you're able to see past an irritating ML and a poorly executed storyline, because some of the other characters and most of all the FL are why I was able to even watch until ep 8.
Review summary: I don't recommend unless you're able to see past all of the bad (including the ML) for the little bit of good. Maybe I'll pick this back up soon, but I can't stand it at the moment.

Kim Seon Ho has to be the best thing in this drama. His acting is always so on point. Loved him, the cafe owner (also from Vincenzo) and the three old ladies. To me I didn't relate to the female lead and didn't enjoy her pairing with KSH. Thought she came across as too masculine and cringe worthy. KSH has such a fresh face and I thought that SMA looked a lot older. Would loved to have seen someone like Park So dam place the female lead in this. Probably wouldn't rewatch this drama but loved seeing another of KSH's dramas as have a lot of respect for this actor.

Rainbow Taxi to the rescue ❤

I had to write about this one because, oh boy, for me, it was pure perfection. Taxi Driver is INTENSE. I was moved by the cases, by the characters, by EVERYTHING, since the first episode and it only got better and better. I have no words to describe all that this drama meant to me...

First, let me just say this, it is SO MUCH MORE than just an action drama. Taxi Driver brings real stories, things so horrible it's hard to believe they really happened, so the cases are all about making the criminals pay - no matter how "protected" by power/money/status they are. And THEN they give voice to the victims - listening, protecting and helping them. This is so powerful. The message is clear: if you are a victim, stay strong. Don't break. Speak up. Look for help. You are not alone. You do not have to go through it alone. Call for help. Report. / And in the end of each episode they display the numbers of crime report lines, helplines and listening services in Korea.

The cast is AMAZING - I loved everyone in this show, so many great actors/actresses. The characters are captivating and the Rainbow Taxi Squad will be in my heart forever ❤

If you are looking for romance, this drama is not for you. But, if you are in the mood for a badass squad and teamwork , great action, some thriller, crimes and plots that will make you feel A LOT - from hate to love, to sadness, to hate again and so on - this one is definitely for you.

The characters in this show are all flawed, but it's done in a way I find endearing.

The FL is selfish, but in a more complex way than that simply being it. She keeps everything she truly feels close to her chest, she doesn't want to burden others with her mistakes and her issues. This decision leads to her making more selfish decisions out of fear and avoidance of emotional vulnerability.

The ML is possessive, but in a way, the audience can find it endearing. This endearing feeling people have about his clingy and possessive acts leads them to demonize the FL in a way that I find unfair. He's flawed too and in a way I find uncomfortable. He can't simply live without her like for him life doesn't mean anything without her. To him, she is everything no matter how harsh or mean she is.

The side leads are equally interesting and definitely deserved more screen time. They try to explore ideas but just scratch the surface on a lot of them. Misunderstanding and Miscommunication are common themes as well as the desire to know if you are loved.

The plot itself is quite boring, all of its mundane or cliche but what makes the show interesting is the editing and the talking heads. To see how these characters lie to each other but then lie to themselves/camera, then to see how they communicate honestly about relationships to each other through the 'documentarian' is quite interesting and funny. The talking heads highlight the individual character's personalities with some answers being long intricate, others blunt, and some avoid answering entirely.

Some unignorable flaws are being unbelievable of some parts of the plot and the weird sidetracked ending. However, these flaws should make this title have THIS low of a rating. Lots of people's complaints are about the toxicity of the FL, which I don't find valid as we aren't rating how much we morally agree with a character (which I don't btw) it's about the show and story overall.

Finally, I should mention how this show could not have been pulled off by subpar actors. These actors carried this mishmash of a plot and eccentric directing style. The main leads had such range in what they needed to pull off and they did it superbly.

What hits differently with LOST?

We could say it's the way its told. To the dark palette scenes, the silence at some points, the dialogues between characters and their interactions and storylines, they all hit home in a different way. Perhaps it's how crude and natural most seem out to be. That they can be touching and emotional, or even deemed tragic. Nevertheless, everything is so elegantly written that captures the viewers.

It's a slice of life that shows us how much loneliness is within each and everyone of us no matter our age or social status, how lost we've become at some point in our lives to start questioning where indeed we went wrong from the path we've once were settled on following. Or maybe there was none of it and we are still lost in a maze of our own delusional perceptions.

A mature and heavy storyline not for the faint of heart or spirit. Because it focuses on dark themes, such as suicide, abusive relationships, depression and hardships. The loneliness of those who live alone, of those sharing a house with someone acquainted, with a lover, a husband, and yet still having this void and drift among them. To the pain of losing someone precious, and the constant sadness, of failing, of being framed. The struggles of finding that your loved one is suffering in silence, or not finding at all until it's too late. The sheer fear of the unknown. Of potential gossips, and misunderstandings, and betrayal. The endless fear of becoming nothing. Of achieving nothing with life, not living but merely existing. The longing of living not knowing how to do so.

Fated meetings and secrets being kept between friends, and the uncertainty of life and death.

However there's a certain melancholic beauty with LOST which allures us to keep on watching and try to empathize with the characters and their own personal struggles. And to their inner emptiness that shows on every single episode.

"What is it like to feel empty?"

Great question, that is hard to give a proper answer to.

The lessons this drama portrays are beautifully expressed by the acting of such talented and seasoned actors.

Do Yeon and Joon Yeol take the prize with the main characters, and the way they engage into their bond and plot in such a natural way that it blends with the symbolic message they are portraying with their roles. Everyone has a role here, and in an odd way they are all connected or interacting at some point. It's hard not to praise the cast for their work here, they all do an amazing job with their characters and the gloomy and serious vibe of this drama. Everything seems realistic, mature and true.

I've known the song Hallelujah before, and it always hit on a deep level, but here in this drama it hits differently. They chose a cover of this famous song, and its spiritual in here. The lyrics, the voice, the sorrow that keeps on matching with the characters storyline and their scenes.

The instrumental melodies and OST blends gracefully with the feelings and the messages the main characters often mention.

Somehow the setting of this drama almost gives some Indie vibes.
Be it the cinematic effects, or even the slow paced scenes and dialogues.
There's an authentic aura enlaced within every single character and story.

Definitely a must watch.

Unexpected, Instant Favorite

This isn't my usual drama genre, but I am super happy that I came across this recommendation randomly a few days ago on tik tok. Coming into this, I knew I was getting myself into a melodrama about a woman trying to escape from her marriage due to domestic violence, and convinces a plastic surgeon to reconstruct her face in order to hide. What she later realizes is that she is given the face of the surgeon's dead wife. I thought I was going to watch a dark and but classic soapy drama due to the fact that homie gave her his dead wife's face and thought it was going to be brushed over by all his friends and family.

Instead, the writer and director gave us a very twisted and dark story and turned it very light and full of flowers (and flower metaphors). They made this drama very enjoyable and easy to watch as the director paired every character with their own "theme song" to light classical music.

One of the things that I loved about this as well was how simple the characters were, but also complex. They were complex because they all were battling something within themselves - Dr Seo and his love for his wife Ha Hyung; Ma Ri and her internal battle of standing up to her abusive husband and learning who to trust; In Wook with his obsession with Ma Ri and his other's death; Hae Ra and her obsessions with Dr Seo; and Sung Ho and fighting a dark secrets. But regardless of their internal battles and these things being HUGE motivators for these characters, they were simple people who grew throughout the drama. The writer and director did an amazing job where we knew these people inside and out and whenever they were faced with a specific situation, the audience knew exactly how each out them would react. And this is to a t until the very end, when everything started to explode, and everyone was tested - but oddly, I just sat there happily watching because I knew that Ma Ri and Dr Seo wanted to help and fight for love and freedom the right way on their own terms. If they were given a shortcut, they wouldn't take it, knowing that it would come with strings attached and would help them get to their goal quicker, but turning them into someone they were not. And it was very refreshing to watch these characters grow as people, but also never stray from their morals.

Another thing I loved was how devoted a lot of these characters were - I believe my favorite character(s) in this drama were Dr Seo and In Wook's lackies due to their devotion to their people. And that is why Dr Seo and Hae Ra wouldn't have worked - Dr Seo is a romantic and would give up everything he has worked for in order to help get Ma Ri out of an abusive situation, where as when Hae Ra was put in the same situation between helping someone else who was in a bad situation and her gallery, she would chose her gallery and her hard work. And there is nothing wrong with this, they are just driven by different things. I honestly think that Hae Ra would feel suffocated at a certain point if she did marry Dr Seo. But I think the MVP award would have to go to In Wook's lackies; they were devoted to him and his wild goose chase and not by the business. There were many times when In Wook's father would try to override a command and they would not budge. Even to the very end, his main guard genuinely seemed to care about In Wook - I got the vibe that he was worried about him and hopefully by being on his side, he could protect him and hopefully persuade him to not do anything crazy.

I would have loved to give this drama 10 stars, but ultimately, it came down to the ending. I LOVED everything about this drama except for the very end. It just seemed like it ended like any other episode, even after the "final battle," where there was a huge after event... it just ended. We didn't get anything else and ended on yet another flower metaphor. I feel that I needed another episode - there were 40 25 minute episodes where we would spend an ep or two trying to fix something after an event happened which I enjoyed every minute episode, so it was very out of character for this character to just sum everything up in the last 5 minutes.

Other than that, I enjoyed the journey and the story of all the characters. There was a lot of "melodrama" to this, but there was also a lot of depth and a story about a woman learning how to tap into her courage to fight as well as her learning what true love actually is. It was also a story about a man who wanted to pretend like everything was okay and masked his hurt with fake love for wife who seemed like two different people, but learned how to accept and heal from it. And it was a story about a man who was traumatized by an abusive father and the death suicide of his mother, who turned into a monster, and refused help.

EVERY TEENAGER SHOULD WATCH THIS!

Before reading I believe teenagers should watch this drama not because of sex but because it talked about it all the risk and what can happen when your not safe. It talks about women who have periods and miss out on thing because we have cramps or other health issues because of it. It talks about how women in public gets harassed all the time because some men can’t keep to them self. It talks about how teens don’t talk to parents about things that they should talk about because we are scared to even talk to them about it.

This drama is a 10/10. I highly recommend, three 17 years old going through high school and learning about sex and their sexuality’s. This drama talking about it all STD, teen pregnancy, and how not to be Peer pressured into having sex just because everyone else is. It talks about how we are sometime scared to talk to our parents about these things while in high school. I love how they talked about the LGBTQ community and how bisexual was portrayed in it. This was the first drama I believe that had the topic for asexual in it, and I’m glad they did and how they were exposing all the terms.

SPOILER……

My favorite part is in the final episode when she finally talked to her mom one on one about sex and how she was prepared and knew all the risk and about STDs and pregnancy. I love how her mom found the condom wrapper and smiled because they talked about it before and her mom was calm because she knew her daughter was in safe hands and already keen about it all.

Hype that will not stand up with time

Hype that will not stand up with time. This series does not measure up to the standards of good, much less great, Korean Drama. The cast is excellent, of course (except for the VIPs, though the inside joke on American actors is rich), but the plot is predictable from the beginning through to the end. From the moment 001 (a heavy-handed clue) showed up, the repetition mixed in with violence and gore was evident, and the outcome was predictable.

However. Blessings on Netflix for bringing international film to the world, especially during the pandemic. But don't try to own it, guys: just stream it.

A great show, until it wasn't

I'd like to start this by saying I haven't seen 2Moons so I went into this show blind.

This show very quickly became a comfort show to me. The actors portrayed their characters perfectly, the characters were nicely written, plus the actors were attractive. It started as a cute, fluffy romance and I was in love.
My heart broke along with Wayu every time he got hurt, my heart fluttered with Kit whenever Mark hit on him - which I must admit, was very annoying at first.

However, the show started going downhill the moment it started adding more characters.

I'm gonna talk about the characters and the relationship first, then I shall talk about the pacing and the finale.

I thoroughly enjoyed MarkKit as the main couple. Their characters are brilliantly written, they have a healthy relationship which is great to see on screen. Mark actually respects consent and doesn't do anything to a drunken Kit even though he wants to. Plus the actors have *incredible* chemistry. Their relationship blossomed at a steady rate, it wasn't too quick but it wasn't too slow. It felt earned, and as a viewer, it was satisfying to watch. Unfortunately, this couple seemed to be shoved to the sidelines as soon as they established a relationship in order to make room for the love triangle. For a series supposedly dedicated to this couple, they got the bare minimum of screen time.

As for the secondary couple, well...it's complicated. Wayu is a marvellous character. They wrote him with just enough flaws to make him human yet still allowing him to be a cute angel. He did not deserve the pain he went through this season. I was constantly ready to throw hands at Pha. I loved his character development as he gradually recovered from his breakup - especially his subtle hairstyle change. If I'm honest, I would rather Wayu have stayed single. I think it would've benefitted the plot if Thanu wasn't interested in him and it was just Jack and Koh chasing him (only to become lovers later)
This whole love triangle was really annoying. They spent so long of the show building up this destiny plot point between Thanu and Phai yet it was completely disregarded in the final episode because "Wayu depends on me" or some nonsense like that. The love triangle did make the plot more interesting - however, it also made the plot too crowded. There were too many romances going on at once that this one was too much. I can understand why Thanu did chose Wayu, but what was the point in these supernatural visions of the future if Phai and Thanu weren't destined? It complicated the plot.

Now for the side characters.

Jack and Koh...So much potential wasted. Why did the writers think this battle for Wayu was funny? It was annoying. After all these complicated relationship plots, I did not need 2 more characters chasing Wayu. I needed a breather. As I said, it was wasted. I really wish they had got these two together so it didn't feel like a waste of time. They kept hinting that there was some romance between these two, but they were disregarded once Wayu found Thanu. Also, WHY WAS MARK ENCOURAGING IT?! Like dude, it's making your best friend uncomfortable, ESPECIALLY after a breakup, you should not be encouraging this type of behaviour no matter how concerned you are for your friend.

I don't even know where to begin with this next bit. Sab, Sandee, Pok and Tong...I have no idea what went on with this lot. I liked the coffee shop plot point. It was cute, I just wished they had continued it further into the series. As for the other characters, it felt like they had been brought together just for the sake of adding more characters. Their story was too complicated for me to keep up. One minute, they're best friends, the next, they're betraying each other. And don't get me started on the toxicity between Pok and Tong. How did the writers let this slide? They tried to hint at s$xual tension between the two every time they're on screen. Which is ok, I felt uncomfortable because they're like 16-18 years old, but it's legal. It kind of worked. It just didn't feel right. The two hated each other. No; they loathed each other. So why were they so attracted to each other? The writers never explored this, creating holes in their plot. AND DON'T GET ME STARTED ON THEIR S$X SCENE. It wasn't even a s$x scene, it was r@pe. Pok was drunk. I don't care if he was the top and was willingly participating, he was drunk. It is not ok and SHOULD NOT BE ROMANTISIZED.

So something I didn't quite understand was the confrontation between Thanu and Padbok. Maybe I missed something, but I don't understand how they went from friends to enemies or why Jack is friends with Padbok but also Thanu and Wayu.

Ok so let's talk about pacing.

I feel like this is something that Thai dramas often struggle with - and this one is one of the worst victims of bad pacing. Firstly, there were too many plotlines happening at one time that it crowded the show and didn't allow for each point to be properly explored. As I said earlier, I think some of the relationships should've been scrapped or left for a season 2.
I also found that the pacing of the episodes was bad. It's hard to explain, but so much yet so little happened in one episode that it felt very tiring to watch. I found that all of the action and plot events happened in large chunks spread throughout the episode, which were glued together by slower, less significant scenes such as product placement, visits to the Community Arts Department or the group of younger kids (Sab, Sandee, Phai etc). I found that the episodes got boring and dragged. I found myself thinking "How long is left? ANOTHER 40 MINUTES?! But so much has happened!" It made 1-hour episodes feel like 5 hours.

Finally, the finale.

This finale wasn't it. There was such a huge build-up in the episodes before, that it was hugely disappointing and anticlimactic. The majority of this episode felt like a filler for the finale. Nothing was resolved, if anything, more problems were created. Nothing felt satisfying for a finale. No puzzle pieces fit together.
So...the big reveal. I didn't like it. It was very predictable but I still didn't like it. I don't want to bash the actor's appearance, but I was lead to believe that Pha was a more handsome, mature figure. I expected him to look like Earth if I'm honest. I wanted Pha to look like a leader-type figure because then it would feed into the question of "Why did he leave Wayu with no explanation if he was so good of a person?".

This entire show - but the finale especially - feel like it was made in a few weeks. I heard it was a fanfiction of 2Moons, which explains why. It just needed more thinking so that plot points were spread out and the characters were developed better.

Boring

Drama name is the Legends but all the time lead female's actor role shown powerful as looked like she was centric character of the drama . But so many persons had the power in the drama so I thought at the end all legends would come together and fight with the evil and among this male lead actor would be the hero as he had so many power ,with the starting of the drama his character hide devil inside him about which he didn't know and gradually his inside power made him achieved two powerful sword .so basically he would be the powerful but most of the time his character shown the weak one and his heroine save him . Actually I felt that there is a fault in the direction of the drama as well the story line ,if we see at the last episode ,so fast they complete the story which was not clear especially the very last part of the last episode and gave so many love stories a heartbreak. This part I really don't like .
Starting of the drama was very good and it was okay till he found her identity then got boring .
I chose this drama to watch because of lead male ,I like his acting especially in the drama related to some historical one .

A love story against the backdrop of hidden secrets.

Story: This drama could have been an amazing one but too many loose scenes and two characters that both seem lost who keep coasting by till the end with no exact resolution in sight. Don't get me wrong, the story is good but the infusion of a sister who manipulates everything down to suicide yet somehow we are too pity her and understand her is just ridiculous. Her character is one that i dislike the most, she is manipulative,selfish and uses her brother's affection and husband's guilty to get away with anything and everything. Normally i love a good villian but this particular one had me cringing because her character was irritating to watch and i saw no need to understand her given the circumstances. Kudos to the ML and FL and other supporting characters though.
