Must watch, if you’re 18+

The cinematography feels really fresh to me. The way this series was filmed reminds me of movie-level cinematography like ‘Parasite’ and ‘No Other Choice’. I’ve been watching K-dramas for 10 years, and I honestly don’t recall seeing anything filmed quite like this. Some scenes also remind me of ‘The Office’ a little bit, you know how sitcoms play with the camera and use those random zooms? 😆

The premise is also very intriguing. I immediately wanted to know more about what would happen to the two families. Multiple things just go wrong at the same time, which leads to one misunderstanding after another, and honestly, it’s quite funny.

I also love how they retell the same story, or events from the same timeline, from different characters’ POVs. And they’re not dull or repetitive at all, because each POV adds more context to the story and gives the characters so much more personality.

Kim Hye Soo is so badass here! ❤️
