One choice can define your future.
Lies, lack of accountability, denial, regret, shifting of blame, playing victim - the complexity of human experience, the cognitive biases we have that help us survive and deal with problematic aspects of our past, present and future. Rules for thee not for me.
While watching this drama it felt like the layers had more layers, the plot twists were just set up for more plot twists and I never knew what to expect in the best way possible. The thrilling aspects were accompanied by the presentation of flaws we all have to some extent, but would never admit to it.
With only 10 episodes and as many as 8 main characters, I do believe the writers and director managed to present a complex, detailed story with clear focus and ideas they wanted to showcase. It does not feel like a minute of a screen time was misused or wasted.
The acting, dare I say the best role from Jing Bo Ran? Yes. It felt like he was managing to do the job of 10 actors alone. He carried the show on his back. I do not want to take away from the hard work and clear talent of the other cast members, but it was truly Fei Ke’s story.
The production was great. I appreciate that the visual aspect was not neglected, which sometimes happens with more thriller and mystery shows. If I had to have any complaints, I;d say there were moments in the last episode so dark I truly barely saw anything on screen.
Overall, it’s hard to review the drama and show how great it is without giving any spoilers, but it is a show that is best watched knowing little to nothing about the plot. It’s a true pure mystery thriller with well timed plot twists, morally grey characters and a proper closure.
