Bad script.
Continuing the trend with a lot of -the last couple of years- k-dramas, this show also suffers the "disease" of a bad script.
Contrary to what others have said, I actually think this isn't a complicated story. It's just a badly written one.
I've watched a lot of mystery-thrillers and the script and acting are the most important factors for a show of these genres to be good. For any show to be fair.
Once again, what is going on with South Korea and its writers? Are they using Ai or what, bc I can't think of a reason where the writers are so uninspired with their work.
For this drama its ONLY saving grace is Lee Junhyuk. This man is one hell of a actor. Anyone that hasn't watched his dramas need to drop what they're currently watching and start "Dongjae, the good or the bastard" right this second. Now, THAT'S a good show.
Anyway, such a seriously disappointing drama. How can you have known, serious actors and the budget to shoot a Netflix thriller but not try to have a better script?
Unoriginal, uninspiring and frankly I'm over korea's obsession with luxury brands and surface level "rich people-poor people" concepts.
K-dramas need to do better.
The 4.5 is for Lee Junhyuk, otherwise I'd give it a 2 for the annoying script.
