This review may contain spoilers
What I found especially effective about the drama is the way character traits are shown rather than explained. Instead of using dialogue to describe a character’s emotional issues or social awkwardness, the writing lets us see it unfold through their behavior and presentation.
Instead of explaining these traits through dialogue, the story shows them through how the characters present themselves to society — one hides her face and wears a flower on her head to look strange on purpose and keep people away, while the other reacts with anger to ordinary situations, which also pushes people away.
Narrating backstories: The backstories are revealed gradually through interview sessions and bits of dialogue, sometimes supported by short flashbacks. Before the full story is shown, each episode gives small hints at the beginning — we see the protagonist’s strange or emotional reactions to certain situations without knowing why. Later, during a therapy session with the psychiatrist, they explain what happened and how they felt. The doctor then offers advice or suggestions for how they can improve.
Later on, the characters encounter a similar challenging situation, and we can see how their reactions have changed.
