"what story?" -- pure epic

ONLY READ IF YOU HAVE WATCHED IT!!!
I was waiting for this drama since 1st june since i had nothing else to watch. And being a writer myself I'm obessed with thrillers just the way professor was, tho i genuinely had NO idea how the plot will unfold.
First of all the plus point? ONLY SIX EPS i love short dramas and i know it's like a roller coaster ride. So i picked my seat in it.
The drama started off very smoothly showing us a student and his professor. Normal uni life, a professor with writer's block & complex martial life ( i don't like the way he treated his wife? excuse me? what even uncle ??? diva took the right decision at the end!) then the first episodes ends up with picking up the speedd. The first damn assignment!
And i cannot blame professor for wanting to read more after "to be continued"
just like him i kept clicking on next ep because at the end professor was representing us in that drama. and tbvh? i never believed lee kang at alll, and his first "attractiveness" with the lady WAS SO DISTURBING!? But i seated throughout the journey trying to understand why this dude likes older women sm? ( again jus like professor lol )
AND OH GOD, THE FIRST PLOT TWIST? My jaw was on the floor I never saw it coming?? I was so invested into the "imaginary mom dad of his friend and i thought yeah this dude just wants to be closer to his "bsf" mom. BUT THE TWIST??? wow! I got mad at first because man wth? why would you deceive me with IMAGINATION?
but then i realized, that is the whole point of "story"
Okay now first plot twist came, and after that the target of lee kang was def. not the women this time but now he got his step into the "murder mystery" and this is where I was like " bro wth? is this jus about a dumb ahh writer and his affairs??" i was so sure that's how the story will keep unfolding and i myself was so invested into finding the real culprit and digging through the evidence! And when in 5th ep, they show how the murder evidence is basically no more yet everyone knows writer did killed her? I was sad actually because i felt bad about the women who got killed and her sister's backstory.
UNTIL.
I WATCHED EP 6 at the start i was like okay this boy might just wanted the professor to overcome his block and THATS WHY I WAS LOWKEY SO DISAPPOINTED CZ WHAT?
but ohhhhhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyy daaaaaayyyyyyyyyyysssssssss
THE TWIST??? they didnt even let me breathe or swallow one twist before another one shows up? WOW
( i lowkey felt slapped too cz wdym i was fooled just like professor was)
and i was actually in denial. This is PEAK.
but the reason of his revenge was SO WEIRD? SO WEIRSD? wdym you got scholarship, befriended that guy and overheard the professor's story, and decided to write in assignment whilst making him beg for more snippets of fake stories? JUST TO TAKE REVENGE? and you even hooked up with his wife ( okay valid for wife lol what even is professor doing atp but DUDE ? )

AND THE AUDACITY TO SHOW AT THE END JUST FOR PROFESSOR TO ASK "what story?"
his character is 101% pure manipulative and i think even the professor knows he's getting played at his hands but i told you, just the way we ended up thinking " now wth he wants to say" professor uncle ended up doing the same.
This one is very complex. No one in this entire drama is a hero or a villain.
10/10
