As far as minis go, it's pretty mid.
The two kids are adorable, so I'll give 'em points for that. -their acting was probably better than most of the adults-The female empowerment narrative was about as subtle as a neon sign. Overdone and unrealistic ie: eyeroll inducing.
The "plot twist" can be seen coming from miles away, perhaps that was intentional though.
The "village" leader is more like the "village idiot" leader. He'd do real well as a modern day politician.
-the villians are cartoon level evil, as are their "freak of the week" schemes.
FL's mother is doing too much. Tone it down would ya? Lol
Overall, some cute and funny moments, but could have been cut down probably an hour of run time even as a mini. Something to throw on when you're bored, but don't want to invest any time & brain power in a more complex plot.

Thriller/Crime & Mystery
The subs are AI generated, so they're pretty wonky at times, but so far I'm enjoying the story & actors.-Weird cliff hanger ending,. Are they really expecting to be able to make a season 2????? I'd actually be amazed if they could manage it, but I'm not holding my breath. Why can't we just complete a story, eh? 🙄
•Confused as to why Wu Ke Ran was in prison?? Aiding and abetting, I guess?...
•Who's the creepy little girl visiting her in prison? Her sorta "step" sister???? O.o!?!?
•Still don't know who the Abyss mastermind is. My guess is the paralyzed dad of Jiang Yan cause who else is using morse code to communicate over the phone? Then again, why call a policeman if your daughter's already been put away fornher crimes. Are there more murderers he's aware of??? Unknown.
•Luo Yin/Wu Fei killing himself was pointless...seriously. He didn't even try to take Jiang Yan with him or anything...O.o whatever, my dude.
•maybe it's because I came back to this one after a bit, but I'm still not exactly sure who the original Luo Yin is/was. As far as I could follow is that he was a victim of circumstances and wrong place wrong time.

Why must reviews contain at least 300 characters??? I don't keep a detailed incident report on these things.. What do you want from me? 😩

Cozy Mystery
Fit the bill for (sorta cozy?) mystery and winter weather feelz. ?? All in all, not too bad for a japanese drama. Cons: •Some of the acting was..not the best /but there were good ones too./ •The storytelling and cuts are confusing/discombobulating at times. •Cheesy (it's no blockbuster lol) >Quirky (it's japanese so, yeahhh)Was this review helpful to you?
