Well done and interesting dom-sub undertones between leads
(I rate vertically filmed micro dramas on their own sliding scale.)
A strong production and a very different story (at the time it came out, it has been repeated multiple times since). I didn't fast-forward anything. A darker/grim story (the main male antagonist, aka SML, is involved in human trafficking for sex and organ harvesting).
To me there were some strong dom-sub undertones in the dynamic between the leads all the way through; it was captivating. ML has the air of a predator but he's not sadistic. FL could be considered a rabbit but she's smarter/sharper than most. There are multiple moments of sexual tension and intimacy. After their first time, the FL mostly welcomes his advances and participates a bit. Kisses are mainly lip presses to small movements but often intense.
Expansion on synopsis:
A student intern needs money to pay for her dad's medical fees and decides to sell some eggs. She accidentally dials the number for the ML doctor who has her come over and scares her into promising not to sell eggs or organs ever. Later they run into each other when she's serving drinks at a bar and gets sexually assaulted and the ML saves her. The ML keeps being drawn to the FL and continues to help her out. The ML becomes the color in the FL's colorless world.
General spoilers below.
It did get a little old that the FL was so strongly swayed by the words of SFL and the ML's mother, determining she wasn't worthy of him and giving up on them instead of listening to the ML who said his world/life meant nothing without her.
I was happy to see in a flashback that the leads actually planned and worked together near the end.
