This was an excellent watch—until it wasn’t. I adored the beginning and genuinely felt it was on its way to becoming a top-shelf favorite. I was fully immersed in the atmosphere from the start, especially the haunting tone and the strong character introductions. The female lead felt powerful, the male lead had presence, and the political backdrop created a level of intrigue that really drew me in. The side narratives were also compelling, especially those exploring themes of past lives, consequences, and redemption. However, as the story progressed, the focus and tone shifted in a direction that didn’t work for me. The elements I enjoyed most became less central, and I struggled to stay engaged with the direction the drama took. While I understand why others enjoy it and can see its appeal, the later episodes didn’t match the strength of the early ones for my personal taste.

Ultimately, I couldn’t finish it. I found myself too disengaged to continue, and I likely won’t return to it. Unfortunately, my viewing experience was also affected by encountering spoilers in comments despite avoiding them, which further impacted my overall impression of the drama.
