ryu su yeol my beloved

the revenge plot was concluded so masterfully. every loose end was tied up, and dong eun executed everything in such a way that none of the bullies met their downfalls at her hands directly. that was my favorite part- she planned everything so well that by the end, they were taking each other down. each of them got exactly what they deserved and it was SO enjoyable to watch. i liked that the writers took care to include that dong eun's revenge didn't magically erase her trauma. she remained a complex character with complex feelings, which felt more realistic. in the same vein, i like that the show included more mundane moments, such as her interactions with yeo-jeong and mrs. kang. i think part of the reason that the viewer can continually sympathize with dong eun throughout her revenge plan (aside from the horrific bullying she went through) is because despite her cold and calculating demeanor, we're continually reminded of her emotions and humanity. also, every single actor did an incredible job. i particularly enjoyed every single time that park sunghoon said shibal.
