From Dark Poetry to Pure Noise
A series based on a revenge, but which, for me, is radically divided into two parts.
At the beginning, the series takes a strong direction. It's slow, delicate: we discover La-el through dance, it's sensual, the camera films the fingers, the glances... The series pushes you to love her at the same time as Kang Yoon-gyeom. There is lust, psychological manipulation, mutilation. We fully accept La-el's darkness, and we tell ourselves that her revenge will be just as much.
Unfortunately, the series completely betrays itself afterwards. We go from a La-el vs. the elite showdown to hair-pulling over a guy.
The series drags on without moving forward. Around episode 10, you'll be thinking: « Geez, what is even left to tell with so many episodes remaining?! » There are plot conveniences all over the place (example: a child crying right when someone asks the right question). La-el starts wearing outfits that clash. We endure flashbacks, tales of destiny, secondary characters explaining that La-el is struggling...
Do I recommend it? A demanding series that turns into a telenovela: whether you belong to the first style of audience or the second, you won't be satisfied.
