Great cast

I love Kim hye soo’s acting so when I heard about this drama with Cho Yeo-Jeong I knew it was gonna be good and it exceeded my expectations because this entire drama was a rollercoaster. The acting was amazing, the younger actresses play the role very well which makes you feel like you’re experiencing the situation with them.
We see the heartbreak that one of the female leads face and how that leads her to become the villain in another persons story. I also find the characters themselves very compelling, the story really makes you accept each of them for who they are despite their many flaws. The cinematography was top notch, the editing and transitions were very clean cut which made the story even more interesting to watch, I also love the queer representation and that they weren’t homophobes.

I also thoroughly enjoyed the comedy aspect, Kim ji hoon did not disappoint, there was never a dull moment in the drama, I absolutely love how they were able to turn usually dark themes into comedy, at the end when you see how the situation just spirals into chaos that’s when we understand that the affair truly was just the beginning.
I’m really hoping for a second season as soon as possible.
