Could have been one of the best...
My Only Sunshine is definitely going to be my biggest disappointment of the year. The series had the potential to be one the best for 2026. The cast has chemistry, it has a fantastic OST and on a technical level, it is one of the best so far this year.
Unfortunately, even with a mostly good story, the series had to go ahead and romanticize sexual assault. Flint apologized to everyone about everything expect for the actual crime she committed when she raped Sun because she "loves" her.
I get it, sexual assault is an unfortunate fact of life, so I didn't have an issue with that scene itself. My issue is that it was then passed off as romantic and made it seemed like Flint was justified in her actions towards Sun.
I could not imagine rewatching this. Such a disappointment.
