A pleasure for the eyes

Although it had a very simple plot, it was developed in the best way possible and made the most out of its short runtime, once again proving that you don't need a complicated plot to make a good story, and that even best plots will turn into trash if the production quality is not good enough. Also that it doesn't matter if the story is not new cuz one story can be told in millions of different ways.

The background music was a work of art, so in tune with the scenes and adding another layer of depth to the situations and increasing the tension. It was so good that in most of the scenes there was no need for words; the situations, actors body language and background music talked loud enough for us to hear it clearly.

But what steals attention the most is the scenery. The colors are so vivid and the location is so beautiful it's like it's straight out of a fairytale. And they have used it in the best way, with those spectacular frames and playing with light and darkness so masterfully that catches your breath. I loved it the most; especially that in episode 6 we saw what they meant by the light and darkness, and how in the last episode they came together in the place in the middle, not completely in the dark but also not completely out in the light. They found their common ground and finally found their way back together. Again, not much was said in that scene; but everything was clear enough.

I enjoyed this show so much.
