Not great for me too because of all the suspense they have built up but ended in a whimper.
Exactly! They totally killed my thriller plot. Like they didn’t even confirm who actually hired the ML…. Amongst a bunch of other pressing questions…. I scaled my rating back from a 9 to a 8.5.
Think it is a commendable feat that the script/plot touches on a lot of realistic issues faced by women climbing…
Also appreciate the last 5 mins of counselling advice/sharing of thoughts by a professional, it’s well presented and concise…. it’s common in the West but rather new in Asia. A good idea to incorporate it into a drama, pretty thought provoking.
Think it is a commendable feat that the script/plot touches on a lot of realistic issues faced by women climbing the ladder in professional and corporate workplaces whilst balancing their life outside of work. It’s quite surprising as much as it is over-the-top/dramatic…. But the topics touched upon are quite real especially in traditional and closed Asian countries even developed ones.
The building + street of the law firm looks so….. right. Reminds me of Wall St actually. Esp all the high ceilings etc. Wonderful choice, the set is so pretty though it is too….. chic and colourful for law firms, that bit is kinda unrealistic….. it’s a little too playful. So is some of Qin Shi et. al’s wardrobe.
Unpopular opinion but I don't hate the second male lead (TJH).
Same! It’s endearing in a way, and I actually do know of a couple who broke up after going out for 7 yrs for similar reasons. Like his mother just doesn’t agree and dislikes her. And they broke up when discussing about the wedding etc.
I think the actor nailed the role though, and I can understand why there is still feelings. Because aside from the mother there was nothing actually wrong with the relationship itself. But of course I also think it is a tad ridiculous that the dude can’t manage his mother and it took 7 yrs to realise it.
But the crime plot was disappointing though, it’s kinda weak actually….. I’m even reading the novel now…
Because the scene didn’t really flow smoothly, last 2 episodes were overly condensed/edited… My heart is in knots because there are so many unanswered questions even though I deduced a lot of them already….. I’m actually struggling to understand why XYN went through all the trouble of staging his own suicide, coz they never even gave the confirmation it was a suicide…. So manyyy questions and things left half hanging….
I got wot he meant….. he is someone who always likes to be the one to decide and to be in control…. So as…
Coz of wot her daughter said to her. They cut everything so short, but she would have been quite surprised to hear her daughter say that he has a gf… and she must have made the little girl admit to wot she did. So to apologise (which she did at the start) and also explain their history from her perspective. Think she actually also wanted closure and to move on.
