Left my brain at home to enjoy this
This felt like one of the stories dissatisfied housewives read in between the struggles of their daily life. It's got action, sensuality and mystery but yet needed not a single brain cell to be able to follow. Maybe it's because as a bookworm with never enough reading material I grew up reading books like that and hence gotten used to overlook plotholes and red flags as if I was half-blind that I was actually able to enjoy this as much as I did.
This was a mess. The relationships between characters were wildly unhealthy, to say the least, and consent was in the grey area most of the times.
While many details were so well-made such as the choice and use of music, small hints, complex entanglement and a generally pretty stable concept for the action-part of the plot, it at the same time had plotholes the size of Sagittarius A*. The amount of coincidences and dumb decisions was crazy.
People pointed out the lacking acting of the FL but I honestly have no clue how the story could have worked with a character that actually seemed to care about what was happening around her. The ML did a good job at acting, though, he actually did display emotions quite well when suited. From how much I enjoyed this series, I would rate this a 7 or even higher, but my own morals won't allow to rate something with so many red flags higher than a 6.5.
I recommend watching if you want an easy action-packed watch that's nice on the eyes, has some spicy scenes and a little mystery. With the short episodes it's very easy to breeze through on a bad day. Even if you find nothing else to like, the stupidity of some scenes might make you laugh.
That being said, if you're easily triggered by questionable consent or want an action-packed plot with less holes than fishnet tights, I recommend you pass on this one.
