I only finished this show because of one character, and honestly that says a lot.
I’m not particularly into GL, and I wouldn’t even really call this a GL drama anyway. It tries to be a psychological thriller, which is usually my kind of thing, but the execution felt chaotic and all over the place from start to finish. I won’t spoil anything, but the story just didn’t hold together well.
The only reason I kept going was Hyeri’s character. She was easily the strongest part of the show. Her performance was so good that I found myself actually invested in her scenes, trying to understand her motives and what she would do next. She carried every moment she was in.
The other lead didn’t work for me at all. In fact, I remember starting this drama last year and dropping it halfway through the first episode because I wasn’t interested, mainly because of that character. I only came back to it after seeing Hyeri’s name and deciding to give it another try.
In the end, I pushed through the entire series just because of her performance. She was the only reason I stayed engaged. I even checked out some of her other work afterward, but nothing really hit the same. Still, this role stood out a lot, and I hope she continues doing darker psychological thriller roles like this in the future.
