So, at first, I didn’t really want to watch this series, but I eventually decided to give it a try, and honestly, it wasn’t bad at all. A revenge storyline in a GL is definitely something different, and you can tell that a lot of work went into the story, the production, and the acting. And Arisa and Lalin’s relationship… absolutely insane, but also really interesting to watch.

The plot twist was pretty predictable, but I didn’t really mind it. However, I definitely think the series should have ended at episode 6.

My main issue is the way Arisa’s past was handled. I feel like we were mostly told about what she went through instead of actually being shown it. We got a few flashbacks, but I really wish we had seen more of her suffering and everything that eventually pushed her toward revenge. It would have helped me understand her perspective and maybe even root for her, because personally, I was more on Lalin’s mother’s side.

I also wish we had gotten way more confrontation scenes from Lalin. I found her way too passive considering how serious and messed up the whole situation was. There was so much potential for more intense confrontations between the characters.

Same thing with the assistant and the journalist I really wish their relationship had been developed more.

And as for the relationship between Lalin’s mother and Arisa’s mother: psychiatric hospital. That’s all I’m going to say .

But overall, I still had a good time watching the series.
