Dear Baek Ah-Jin; Villain to the privileged. Survivor to herself.

I fail to see Ah-jin as evil. Manipulative? Absolutely. She’s also intelligent in using people, things, and whatever resources she could grasp in order to survive and climb to the top. Her actions are calculated, not senseless. Her only wicked act was framing an innocent man. However, the fact that she had to resort to that is another discussion to be had. Bullied, abused, stalked, harassed, etc. Where was the hammer of justice then? Her lack of emotions was a double-edge sword; a shield that protected her when she needed to be strong, but wounded others when empathy was required most but lacking. This is why the end of her 1+ year period with her boyfriend and Grandma was such a tragic loss. I don’t hate the ending. If anything, I found it unsettling in the best way. I even felt afraid seeing the CCTV footage of her in that bloody white dress lol. Her relationships with the two main leads were toxic in their own way- but hey, it works for them… to an extent.
