in your opinion, is this still a watchable series? Or that it's not good enough to spend my time binge watching…
If you have watched 24 episodes, there are only 5 more to go. You may as well finish it and make your own judgement. In my opinion, the main characters act more irrational to fit the narrative of the story that the female director and the screenwriters want to tell.
I am writing this assuming the reader has watched a few episodes of the drama. If you want to avoid spoilers, just skip this comment. The victim is really imperfect. She was portrayed to be someone who did not know what she wanted until a few days later when she decided that she wanted to press charges. At the moment of the sex act, she was not incapacitated. There was no struggle, no rejection, and did that mean silent consent? What was worse was that it was not the first time she was alone with the accused CEO. It would not be hard for her to guess what was coming to her. CEO treated these quests as challenges, and pushed as hard as the way he ran his business. It was ridiculous that he put the burden to stop entirely on the young victim. What he learnt from this is "try not to buy sex from where sex is not for sale". Many women would throw themselves to him given his wealth and social status. The policewoman was not professional. The accused was a public figure. She could do some investigations before bringing him into custody. The personal damage, as a consequence, was immense to the accused. There is no presumption of innocence for the accused in that legal setting. The story is dragged for too many episodes. It would be best if it is stopped much earlier. But the female director and scriptwriters have to show a win for the women unnecessarily.
