It starts out really good and progressive and turns very toxic halfway. (I dropped halfway through episode 19)
Some of you will be able to endure it and enjoy this drama, but it's too much for me.

P.S. If a guy ever treats you the same way - please talk to someone about it. You deserve better. Your partner is supposed to respect your decisions and boundries and not wish to control your life. Consent is also very important - through every part of your relationship. Take care of yourselves! <3

I'm sorry but I cannot get behind this drama after the first episode. It was way too harsh just watching them slaughtering innocent girls. All of them are accomplices. I will never root for any of them nor forgive them, so I'm saving myself the time.

I watched the series because of this review, so thank you!

If you don't want melo, it's not for you. The story is very tangled and very well executed, but it's sad. The ending is somewhat open, but it's implied to be a good one. Most of the drama, though, is very sad and emotional.

Some of it is even in little doses. it's kinda swept under the rug because it's not as bad in comparison to... you know. Despite liking the chef, he was kind of selfish and made the brother's funeral about him. He also suspected her and assumed things (While she didn't even own him anything) Of course, the worst was the college guy. First, he manipulated her to believe the other guy wasn't interested in her. He was controlling and selfish as well. I feel like the problem is with the writer, and that's why it's so noticeable. It's multiple characters and relationship standards that are iffy to me. It wasn't healthy is all.

Honestly, most of the male characters are very toxic.
I don't usually mind a bit of toxicity (we've come to expect it) but it was very prevalent because it was noticeable in multiple of the relationships...
Take that as you will.

lmao I went into his profile because I thought the same 😭

What angered me was not the direction of the plot, it was the way the writers kept toying with the viewers.
I didn't really like it that much during the first reply (1997, towards the ending, when it was already clear). Chil-Bong just became a tool of the plot, and that's why I kept having hopes for him.
Mr. trash had other things going for him, but as for Chil-Bong, he never got the chance to move on from his first love, never got fully rejected (on screen, at least), and despite having a good career he maintained a relatively empty life.
I don't like NJ that much, so I wasn't actually rooting for them as a couple. I just wanted him to get a good ending. It seemed like without NJ the writers weren't gonna let him have it.
My rule for SL's is this: if they are not gonna end up together, they gotta have another path to be happy and fulfilled (or at least learn from that experience), since the writers keep pushing them on for the sake of drama.
IRL, I think Chil-Bong would have moved along just fine, and for that reason it prickles me so much.
This is without even mentioning the never-addressed queerbaiting.

The thing about this show (2 episodes in) is that it's unique. It's quirky, and it has this weird format/vibe that only a few shows have. Successful or not, I think it would have a devoted cult following:)

The thing that tipped me off the the most, was how everyone were always watching eachother from afar. (Accidentally or not.) There were so many scenes in which one of the characters stumbled upon information. It got so eccentric that (more than once) people followed the people who followed people... At some point it's not a coincidence, it's either the characters being dumb (not closing their doors, talking loudly about confidential stuff in public, etc.) or it's just lazy writing.
