Mui Fei is an incredibly well made revenge story with an interesting and refreshing plot. However, it is not for the weak. Much of the content is very dark and contains a lot of triggering content that is very difficult to stomach. A lot of it was sick and disturbing. If you can handle that, then the story itself is very tragic and agonizing. That being said, it was worth it for such an interesting tale. The drama makes you analyze the female lead's life. In the beginning, she gets saved by the male lead, who has very good intentions. However, you find yourself questioning whether he actually "saved" her. It makes you think about sin. It makes you wonder if the horror and supernatural elements are actually real. Speaking of horror, the drama is filled with some genuinely creepy moments. The actress that played one of the spirit creatures did a phenomenal job being terrifying.

The writing was surprisingly good. Don't worry, it wasn't painful to watch the whole time. Once the female lead starts getting revenge, it is very satisfying. There's also a morality aspect to the drama. Should she continue to get revenge? Can justice actually prevail when society is rotten? There is lots of thought provoking writing here. With only 10 episodes, it is the perfect length. The drama doesn't get into too much detail of the characters' lives, except maybe the main characters. The male lead's mom was the one thing that threw me off. Her personality around her son versus the female lead was so different and inconsistent that I almost thought it was a different person. Other than that, it was a fantastic horror watch.
