I like the FL. She looks like a constable which is not always the case in these dramas. No makeup, no dangly hair accessories, and no fancy clothes. It makes her more realistic as a character.
The person doing sound editing for this drama deserves serious kudos. The background music is integrated beautifully into each scene. Vocal songs are excellent too, moody and eerie.
I understand and agree with what you're saying. There is a certain degree of acceptance and thought that one must go through when watching media foreign to them. I watch US TV too and many things there make me go WTF😂 . People used to struggle with Japanese anime and Korean dramas, it seems it's Cdrama's turn now.
