there have been a few this year... typhoon company, good boy, WLGYT, potato lab... i think shorter drama are sometime better. rather than draggggggiinggg a storyline through filler scenes just to get to16 episodes
It definitely does. All the ratings on MDL are so fudged lol Taxi Driver 3 started with a 5, lots of trolls in…
im an LJH fan and I gave this a 6.5. some people just didn't like it as much as others and thats okay... some bots. yes. but alot of genuine ratings too
The drama is good overall, but I do think it made things more complicated than they needed to be. A simple 'find out who framed me' plot would've sufficed without all the extra layers. It was also frustrating to see so many characters introduced only to disappear for the rest of the series
I was in love with it up until ep 12. but the dynamic between the leads became a little frustrating (see below)…
I hated the takeaway message. It felt like a celebration of toxic friendship and emotional manipulation, with one character derailing another’s life… and only becoming repentant once she knew she was dying.
In the end, the FLs were clearly bound by a grief bond, which shouldn’t be romanticised just because SY died. Sang Yeon was given more grace than anyone else and kept an emotional hold over Eun Jung to the end. Even during their time apart, she didn’t use that space to heal or grow... she stayed stuck in her victimhood.
Meanwhile, Eun Jung never offered the same grace to anyone else. Her relationship with the ML was far more balanced, yet she stayed distant and unforgiving (which I understood, though it felt inconsistent compared to how she treated SY). At a certain point, it felt like Eun Jung was robbing herself of her own happiness.
By the end, it honestly felt like SY ‘won,’ leaving Eun Jung looking weak and easily manipulated. I really wish she’d been given a happier ending away from SY.
This dropped the drama from a 9.5 to an 8.5 for me.
