Title Reborn
One of the things I’m so impressed by in this show is the use of Gothic elements. From the music, lighting, and production values, to the use of the horror/mystery, claustrophobic commentary on gender roles, and the uncanny. I don’t think I have seen this in any of the Cdramas I’ve watched. There is even seems to be a nod to Bertha from Bronte’s Jane Eyre…the “madwoman in the attic” and the fire. The ghost of her sister and what cannot be said haunting the whole narrative. Here’s the Wikipedia link to generate some thoughts… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_fiction.
