This drama is not for everybody. The phone staying intact after dropping from the top of a building does point to some details being pure fiction. It is makjang like in that YuCi changes hats as necessary to gain justice from those who wronged her. It is definitely more character driven than having a specific logical plot line. What I absolutely loved about this drama was the tension and interaction of the characters. YuCi transforms herself from the downtrodden rich girl that had her life stolen from her to a VP of Lysen. She has no support from her friends or family and her best mentor was hiding out at the mental hospital where she found herself forcibly admitted. The big question was if miracles could happen for good people? Was that even remotely possible where people were used as steppingstones and all circumstances manipulated to prevent any hope of surviving much less getting justice. YuCi is faced with seemingly insurmountable odds but refuses to stay where they bind her. Pure grit and brains help her find the ones she needs to assist her and cause the biggest blows to her opponents. The back and forth is intense and brutal. Both sides are all in for the win. I was glued to my chair for every episode just to see what happened next. The actors do an excellent job of making their characters liked or hated. We are drawn in to both worlds, the machinations of a company where the bottom line is burn all bridges to get ahead vs those cheated by signing the contract and having their life savings and livelihoods stolen and trampled. Yu Ci brings it right to them by using their vices against them. This is strongly countered and the odds are always against her. In spite of that, she is determined to get justice and make the Lysen group give back to the community as well as make money. Watching this transformation was an exciting and interesting adventure.
