Really bad setting of Faifa and wine story without giving them any closure

Note: This review does not reflect any hate towards the actors. I love them and always will. This critique is solely aimed at the story and its characters.

I recently finished watching the drama Perfect 10 Liners till ep 22, and although I once considered it a masterpiece, I now find myself deeply disappointed by the way it handles character emotions and relationships. The series portrays the intimate feelings of couples with utmost seriousness and depth. Every detail is given significant weight, which makes it all the more painful when this sincerity is absent in other parts of the narrative.

For instance, while the drama treats the emotional struggles of couples with careful consideration, the portrayal of the faifa dynamic comes off as light-hearted entertainment—a treatment that borders on making fun of genuine feelings. This stark contrast in storytelling leaves a bitter taste, as it seems to belittle the true emotional suffering some characters endure.

I initially admired characters like Yotha and Gun, and I could relate to their struggles. When Gun faced heartbreak, it was Faifa who stood by him, protecting him and wiping away his tears. Yet, as the story unfolded, it became painfully clear that both Yotha and Gun exhibited selfish behaviors that not only undermined Faifa’s own suffering but also betrayed the bond they once shared with him.

Yotha, who is Faifa’s twin brother, repeatedly demonstrates a selfish disregard for Faifa’s deep-seated pain. Despite knowing about Faifa’s suffering from the very beginning, Yotha chooses to add to his torment rather than offering any genuine support. His actions, including his constant interference—whether by denying Faifa even the smallest moments of privacy in his own home or by deliberately isolating him—highlight a persistent lack of empathy.

Gun, on the other hand, despite having Faifa as a steadfast supporter who comforted him during his moments of despair, also reveals his selfish nature. Instead of reciprocating the loyalty and care Faifa offered him, Gun often acts in a way that makes Faifa feel left out and unimportant. Their relationship, seemingly forged out of Faifa’s efforts, turns out to be one-sided. Gun's lack of gratitude and his dismissive behavior towards Faifa’s sacrifices amplify the pain, making it appear as though both Yotha and Gun exist only because of Faifa’s unwavering support.

One particularly distressing moment occurs in episode 22. While other couples are granted their private moments of romance, Faifa’s rare chance to experience happiness is interrupted and ridiculed. Rather than being celebrated or given space to breathe, his joyful moments are turned into opportunities for mockery. This not only trivializes all the suffering he has endured but also cements the narrative of him being continuously deprived of the love and acknowledgment he rightfully deserves.

In the end, the drama presents an ending that seems to normalize and even justify these selfish behaviors. It leaves Faifa—the kind, gentle soul who never complained despite his relentless pain—without the closure, apology, or genuine compensation that could have eased his long-lasting suffering. If only the writer had chosen to offer an alternative resolution or even a special episode where Faifa’s struggles were finally recognized and addressed, the story might have carried a more balanced and compassionate message.

I write this review as a heartfelt plea to the writer: please consider an ending where Faifa is freed from his unending suffering—not as a token of forgiveness, but as a true acknowledgment of his worth. Until such a resolution is offered, the drama will continue to haunt me every time I think of it, serving as a constant reminder of the deep emotional wounds it inflicted.
