This Drama Made Me a Fan
I just finished watching The Vendetta of an An, and despite being extremely busy with work, I’m so glad I finally made time for it. What a great way to end the year.From Episode 1, the drama immediately caught my attention, and it never let go until the very last episode. The intensity was consistent throughout, I kept wondering how everything would unfold. I really appreciated the pacing of the story, as well as the overall quality of the production. The camerawork, action sequences, and fight choreography were all well-executed and added so much depth to the viewing experience.
I’ve been watching C-dramas for years, but I hadn’t really explored Cheng Yi’s works before. I knew of him as an actor and was familiar with some of his projects, but I kept putting them off, partly due to procrastination and partly out of fear of wasting time. This drama, however, gave me a real reason to finally watch his work. His acting was impressive, every smile, every sinister expression, and every emotional moment felt genuine. You could truly feel the character he portrayed. It was captivating to watch.
I would also like to commend the entire production team for their hard work in bringing this drama to life. Every actor and actress did an excellent job. There wasn’t a single moment that felt awkward or forced, each character had a clear purpose, and all performances were solid and convincing. I honestly can’t fully express how much I enjoyed watching this.
Whether this story was an original script or adapted from a novel, I’d also like to give credit to the writer or author. The dialogue was strong and meaningful throughout. As someone who appreciates a well-written story, I was truly impressed. I’ve watched many revenge-themed dramas before, and often they can feel frustrating or illogical. This one stood out for how intelligent and well-thought-out the revenge was it felt deliberate, strategic, and satisfying.
If giving Cheng Yi’s work a chance led me to this drama, then I can confidently say it made me a fan.

Healing and unconditional second chance romance
To me, this drama is like a warm hug. An endless warmth after a blistering snow storm.Yifan is so sad and lonely with a painful past, but Sang Yan is so incredibly caring. He carries a quiet intensity that no matter what life throws at them, he will be the one to keep them afloat. It's funny how it seems like it's the cold ML x naive FL cliche. The dual POVs reveal that their misunderstandings are due to fear to hurt the other when there actually is such a depth of love.
Yifan's trauma is intense and almost triggering. It's understandable why she is the way she is, her strength is quiet but unyielding. Sang Yan is the most chalant nonchalant man I ever witness. He is such a loser in-love that it hurts my eyes.
A second-chance romance that actually is a first love story, Sang Yan had never let go.

Truly a fateful and tragic love story that makes you reminisce on your own life
Goblin is a a story of life and love. Kim-shin and Eun-tak have this adorable chemistry that makes your heart warm.The supporting characters have great backstories that actually add to the story. The supernatural elements and themes of fate/life are well done in a way that makes you ponder on your own life. With catchy OSTs and moments that are so humorous that makes the tragedies even more heartbreaking.
In the Goblin's search to end his life, he found his reason to live. Truly a drama for the ages.

A hidden gem!
I honestly don’t know how to deal with the amount of negative criticism this K-drama has received. Because of those reviews, I almost missed out on what is truly a hidden gem.For me, Spring of Youth is the very definition of what a traditional K-drama should be. It has just the right balance of romantic comedy, music, and romance without becoming overly sweet, a subtle touch of fantasy, and even a bit of crime-related drama that, while predictable, never feels boring.
What I loved about this K-drama:
-The cornea transplant storyline touched me on a very personal level. My father received a transplant when he was very young, and I had never truly reflected on the person who had to die so that he could see again—someone who once had a life, dreams, and desires.
This theme was handled with great sensitivity, delivering just enough emotional weight to bring tears without becoming overwhelming. I loved the magical, almost fantastical aura surrounding this storyline. The way it was woven into the plot was beautiful; no heavy explanations were needed.
-Another deeply emotional theme for me is the mother–daughter relationship, and it usually breaks my heart. Here, however, it was handled with so much care and beauty. The way both themes connect in such a subtle, almost magical way feels like pure art.
-I’m not a fan of overly sugary or clingy romance, and this drama found the perfect balance. The romance was neither too much nor too little—just right.
-Friendship is one of the things I enjoy most in K-dramas, and the bond between the band members was very well developed. In many ways, it reminded me of Twinkling Watermelon.
-The soundtrack is lovely. The necklace song slowly grew on me, and by the end, I truly loved it.
-Contrary to many comments I had read, I felt that every character’s actions were completely justified. The story felt well-rounded and cohesive, with almost no loose ends.
-The length of the drama was perfect—long enough to fully develop the story, yet short enough to never feel boring.
What I didn’t love as much:
-There’s no clear explanation of what exactly happened to Seo Tae-Yang’s mother. I would have liked to know how she died.
-Seo Tae-Yang’s ending made me sad. I would have preferred to see him rejoin the band.
-The final scenes left me wanting a proper band reunion, as well as more development of Jin-gu’s story and his relationship with Bae Gyu-ri.
This is my first K-drama of 2026, and the year truly couldn’t have started in a better way.

This has no business touching my heart like that
This was so beautiful... So beautiful.The story is very simple and touching, and the two leads done great job, specially Akisawa Kentaro, he plays a deaf character and he managed to express all his emotions perfectly.
I don't know why this isn't popular! It's one of the best Japanese short movies I've ever seen.
Short, simple, heartwarming and beautiful.
Highly recommended ~~

Enjoyable to say the least.
Watched this mainly for Ji Chang Wook, seeing him back in action was so refreshing. The story was good but had some plot holes, and even as an action fan, I think they overdid it at times. Acting was top-notch. Ji Chang Wook delivered as always, but D.O truly surprised me, he absolutely nailed his role. Characters were okay, though some felt unnecessary. Production was amazing, and I loved that it didn’t bombard us with countless OSTs. Overall, I really enjoyed it and would definitely rewatch itWas this review helpful to you?
SWEET BUT SHORT
This was a very sweet and also very short drama.It leaves the audience yearning for more from the new couple.The drama ends just as the characters become a couple.Honestly they should have added an episode of them being in their dating era.We got to see Kano out on a date with the other Ogami laughing and smiling enjoying his time in the other world.It should have been fair to see him enjoying himself with the Ogami he's inlove with.Working together as a couple, going to and from the office and just enjoying their time as couple.Was this review helpful to you?

good show but the ending was sloppy
i liked this overall not bad at all. i enjoyed watching it especially pat and emi's acting was so good.however, ending was very rushed and sloppy.
how did baikhaw snuck inside tulip's house? ok shes crazy as hell so lets assume she just found a way. then how did namo get in? tulip's mother's head was crashed by baikhaw's hit so she can't open the door. so how did even namo manage to get inside???
also what happened to tulip's father? was he convicted?? because appearently tao and namo told the police everything. didn't tulip spill the truth to the police as well? her parents just got away with all.
was tao just released after killing baikhaw's mum? ok it was a mistake and out of self-defense, but we didn't learn anything about what he did afterwards.
i think they could've made the last episodes 30 mins longer and give answers to those questions.
regardless, the show was thrilling and exciting. the story was fine.

This is NOT Go Go Squid!
I had higher expectations. I enjoyed Go Go Squid! It was sweet to watch a girl break down the walls of a cold, angry man. Squid 2 had some good things going for it. I enjoy Hu Yi Tian and Wang An Yu on screen. The group blind date was original and had me laughing out loud. The family and friends' relationships were warm. The OST was enjoyable and featured some of Go Go Squid's music; listening felt like meeting an old friend, and it made me smile.But that's pretty much where the good stuff ended. There was little conflict or growth. The drama was basically two people soulfully staring at one another, interspersed with a few scenes of battle robots. Seriously! If you'd edited down the cringy eye contact between the ML and FL, the drama would have been cut in half and not dragged as hard.
For being so sugary, Squid 2 left a bad taste in my mouth. The ML was the greenest flag of all time—to the point of not having a personality. The FL took advantage of him in numerous ways. The one that was unforgiveable to me was that she willingly became his opponent. When a couple is dedicated to one another, they're loyal. They support one another. They don't join the enemy (which was the company of her ex!). They don't undermine one another. They build a life together.
I admit I probably have defective romance genes. If you like romance, this may be your cup of tea. Just don't expect anything much other than insipid romance. I took lots of breaks in the last episodes, as the romance was painfully dull to me.
I awarded an extra half star for the blind date scene, the music, and Wang An Yu's portrayal of an immature Shen Zhe.

A Doctor, A Firefighter, and Love That Defies Time and Class
ASlow-Burn Romance in a Patriotic World and a Love That Still BurnsAngsty action romance drama with firefighters and hospital theme.The two leads do have chemistry. It's not as deeply rooted as one would like it to be, but there is some chemistry between the two leads. Love at first sight, reconcile 10 years later between two Individuals of Noble Profession.
I honestly loved this drama. From start to finish, it’s a mix of bromance, romance, action, and life lessons that makes it unforgettable. It’s not your typical drama with the “intelligent boy / dumb girl” trope — here, both leads are mature, smart, and hardworking, and the story respects their growth and emotions.
💛 Story & Characters:
Yang Yang as Song Yan: Absolutely brilliant. He’s mischievous, talkative, fierce, and yet responsible as a firefighter and a leader. The way he balances his ambition, love life, and caring for his team is realistic and inspiring.
Wang Chu Ran as Xu Qin: Sophisticated, reserved, and independent. Her journey of balancing family obligations, love, and career as a doctor is beautifully portrayed. Her growth from being constrained by her family to pursuing love and independence feels natural and earned.
The drama also honors real-life professions — firefighters, rescue workers, and doctors. The scenes showing their struggles and sacrifices are so moving and respectful. It made me appreciate their dedication and bravery, and added a layer of realism you rarely see in dramas.
✨ What I Loved:
True-to-life emotions and conflicts — not over-the-top fantasy drama stuff.
The relationship development between the leads is paced realistically. Every interaction matters, every emotional moment hits.
The drama gives respect and recognition to all jobs, showing that every profession has its difficulties and deserves acknowledgment.
Action and romance are well-balanced — it’s not just about love; it’s about life, duty, and resilience.
Even small details — like showing the difficulty of being a firefighter — add depth and meaning to the story.
⚡ Acting:
The whole cast delivers, from leads to supporting characters. Song Yan’s and Xu Qin’s chemistry is seamless. While I occasionally found Xu Qin a bit frustrating (but not enough to drop the drama), her moments of growth made it satisfying to watch. Song Yan’s journey as a professional, lover, and friend is heartfelt.
The mother character adds tension, and though at times annoying, her arc — especially being redeemed later — is well-handled. Supporting characters, like Xu Qin’s brother and team members, enrich the story and bring balance.
💡 Pacing & Writing:
Realistic pacing — take your time with this drama; don’t skip episodes, or you’ll miss small but meaningful developments.
Modern, mature, and engaging — emotions are developed over time, not forced.
Some social class subplots felt repetitive, but the drama’s main strength is in its characters and realistic storytelling, which outweighs minor cliches.
💌 Who Should Watch:
If you love realistic modern dramas that mix romance, friendship, and action.
If you appreciate emotional depth and character growth.
If you want a drama that respects real professions and shows life struggles in adulthood.
Fans of Yang Yang or Wang Chu Ran — both deliver career-defining performances.
Viewers who enjoy slow-burn romance and meaningful bromance.
⚠️ Who Might Not Enjoy It:
Those looking for fast-paced, light, or purely fantasy romance.
People who don’t like subtle emotional build-up — this drama is about noticing the small things.
Viewers who are bothered by social class conflicts or strict family dynamics — these are part of the story, though handled well.
💖 Final Thoughts:
This drama is heartfelt, realistic, and inspiring. It made me laugh, cry, smile, and feel pride for real-life heroes like firefighters and doctors. Every scene matters, every character contributes, and the emotional pay-off is immense. Truly, a must-watch for anyone who values story, character, and life lessons in a drama.
Rating: 9/10
If you haven’t watched it yet — take your time, enjoy the journey, and ride the emotional waves. You won’t regret it.

So Much Potential, Completely Wasted
If you’re like me and you care about emotional intimacy, devotion, being let into the couple’s relationship, and watching a love story actually be built on screen, this drama will frustrate you endlessly. This drama itself does not properly build the relationship it asks you to root for, and that’s the core problem.LIKES:
— Hyeri was hilarious, charming, warm, and had zero boundaries in the best way — I completely fell in love with her personality
— The makeup, fashion, cars, and overall modern aesthetic were gorgeous; I missed this kind of polished, contemporary drama so much
— The workplace scenes where the male colleagues actually stepped in to protect her instead of humiliating her were refreshing and well done
— The production value was excellent, and the cast as actors are very strong
DISLIKES:
— The side characters, especially Hyeri and second male lead, were far more emotionally engaging than the main couple which was a problem if they were not the main couple
— I got intense second lead syndrome, which I almost never get, because the second male lead and the version of her he fell in love with had a relationship that felt gentle, mutual, and earned
— I genuinely loved the dynamic between the “poor” hyeri version of her and the boy grieving his brother; their story felt like it deserved its own drama
— The male lead treats the female lead like an object that waits for him to return whenever he feels ready
— He is emotionally closed off to an extreme degree — not “quiet,” not “reserved,” but withholding, even after years together
— He never lets her into his life, his family, or his grief, which is insane after an eight-year relationship
— The female lead becomes anxious, dependent, and emotionally diminished around him in a way that felt uncomfortable and humiliating to watch
— I hated that the person who truly fell in love with the good man was her other personality, not her — that felt cruel
— Each personality should have been given her own story; combining them robbed both of depth and respect
— Watching her live as her sister and slowly erase herself felt like a betrayal, not growth
— I stopped rooting for the main couple entirely because the relationship felt toxic, unbalanced, and emotionally negligent
— The drama lets us get incredibly close to the second personality, then removes her abruptly without dignity, closure, or a goodbye
— The second male lead also never gets closure, which makes everything feel unfinished and cruel
— The drama constantly keeps us at a distance from the main couple — we’re watching from hallways, doorways, or faraway angles, never inside their emotions
— We’re told to root for the main couple without ever being allowed to feel with them
— The male lead repeatedly centers himself, even in situations where he’s clearly hurt her, and never truly acknowledges his damage
— Scenes feel manipulative, like fake-out accidents and emotional gimmicks designed to keep viewers watching instead of earning investment
— It makes no sense that she continues working under extreme stress without intervention, consequences, or realism
— The reunion felt forced, emotionally empty, and completely unearned
— Casting was wrong: the female lead actress is too inherently strong to convincingly play this level of emotional collapse, and the male lead lacks warmth, emotional range, and vulnerability
— By the end, the only people I cared about were the second male lead and second female lead — everyone else lost me
— This drama handles dissociative identity far worse than other dramas that have tackled it with more care and respect
CONCLUSION:
This drama looked like it should have been incredible. The production, the cast, and the early promise were all there — but the writing and structure completely failed the story. It made me emotionally invest in characters it discarded and asked me to root for a relationship it never properly built.
I didn’t feel moved, healed, or satisfied. I felt frustrated, distant, and honestly upset by how careless the story was with the characters I loved most.
For me, this is a 3/10. Not because it lacked talent — but because it wasted it.

Interesting But Short Film
I was interested in this film because one of the actresses, Sun Mei Lin, has a supporting role in the 2025 hit series Speed and Love.” This was a short, 12 min film, about two women in a relationship discussing marriage as they are preparing to attend someone else’s wedding. There is no soundtrack and only the two characters in the film which is kind of documentary in style with a “breaking the fourth wall” element. The film was interesting but I don’t know if I would watch it again. The ending was kind of abrupt and left me wanting more. This film was difficult to find but streams for free on GagaOOLala.Was this review helpful to you?

This was just so lackluster. I almost can’t even be bothered to have an opinion on it.The dialogue was cheesy, the editing was cheesy, and the dramatic staring into each others’ eyes and random falling into each others’ arms was in full force. They have characters randomly talk to themselves outloud to show the audience what they’re thinking. The acting was downright bad, the leads had no chemistry, and the kissing / sex scenes from the main couple were awkward as hell.
There wasn’t even a plot, not even the romance. It’s just a bunch of characters having random conversations and doing random things that have no bearing to any sort of overall storyline. There’s a bunch of minor side plots — Tin’s relationship with his mom, Pei’s relationship with her parents, Pao’s drug overdose — but they were all short and unsatisfactory. Thrown in just for the sake of filling time. And there were a bunch of child characters that kept showing up and I don’t know what any of them were supposed to have contributed.
The drug overdose side plot especially annoyed me, because it was thrown in just for the sake of it, and it was done thoughtlessly. The show treats people that do drugs as if they’re the problem, doesn’t acknowledge that addiction is an illness, and even has the boyfriend of the one that overdosed punch him in the face for overdosing. And the guy overdoses and then never does drugs again and it’s never mentioned again, which just trivializes the issue.
There’s basically zero romantic progression between the main leads for the first six episodes. One of the side couples had good romantic progression at the beginning of the series, but after they kiss, their romance basically disappeared entirely until the special episode. It’s a shame because they had more compelling chemistry than the main couple. And there’s a straight couple that should’ve just been cut altogether because aside from being awkward as hell, the characters were barely connected to any of the other characters so it just felt disjointed.
The romance between the leads was lackluster, badly paced, lacked chemistry, and was honestly kind of creepy.
First of all, Tin acts like a kid. Not an immature teenager, but like a 10 year old kid. He’s constantly talking in a baby voice and acting cutesy in a baby-ish way. He literally still sleeps with his baby blanket. When he and Park get in a fight, he throws a tantrum and locks himself in his room with “I hate Park” signs taped to the door. Tin is a freshman in college, while Park is a nurse somewhere in his 20s. I’m not sure what the actual age difference is, but Park says there isn’t a huge difference between them at once point. But Park treats Tin like a kid, to the point that his colleagues say that they thought he was 7 or 8 years old, and Tin keeps saying that Park is an “adult” as if he isn’t one himself. Park spends the entire first half of the series calling Tin a child. The creepiest part for me was when Park said that he never thought he’d see Tin as anything more than a brother but then he started growing up and getting prettier…yuck.
There’s a weird part at the beginning where Pei, Park, and Tin refer to themselves as mom / dad / child. Like Pei calls Park “honey” and “husband” and feeds him, Park calls Pei “girlfriend”, and both treat Tin like a child. It was this weird flirty dynamic, but then it just disappears completely. Pei later reveals that she and Park had experimentally kissed one another but determined they didn’t feel anything for each other, but that kiss was before the weird flirty thing. I just didn’t see what the point of including that was. But calling Tin a child and treating him like one only to then enter a romantic relationship with him is, once again, weird.
Plus, Park practically raised Tin and very much acts like a father as opposed to a boyfriend. Tin feels the need to get Park’s approval before accepting expensive gifts, and Park scolds Tin when he gets home late or when he takes a job that requires him to skip classes. And when I say scold, I mean like a parent would scold a child. There’s even one scene where he says that if Tin doesn’t listen to him, it’s over. He even gives advice like a father would, saying that you can do anything if you work for it and I’ll support you, but I’ll scold you if you say you can’t do something without trying.
Park 100% financially supports Tin, paying all for all food, bills, and Tin’s tuition. Any time Tin wants anything, he asks for money from Park. When Tin finds out that his mom doesn’t send money to Park anymore and this is all coming out of his pocket, he feels guilty, but not once does he consider getting a job and contributing. There’s a point where Park is reminiscing about Tin being a baby and how he used to be so small that his hand wouldn’t even wrap around Park’s finger, which is creepy as hell to do as a romantic partner. And Tin straight up asks if he’s trying to be his father or his boyfriend in response.
Aside from the overall general creepiness, the pacing was also off. Park spends 6 episodes showing zero interest in Tin. He treats him like a child and a brother. Then someone else shows interest in Tin, so Park gets jealous and does a complete 180, declaring his love for Tin and suddenly vocalizing his emotions when he had zero ability to do so before. That happens in episode 7, but then they don’t kiss despite exchanging declarations of love until episode 9. And then there’s a speed run, because they get engaged in episode 10. Like what? It didn’t help that there were a bunch of useless side characters and it felt like the main couple barely got any screen time together for a large part of the show.
I wasn’t a fan of the jealousy arc or the fact that Park only showed interest in Tin because he was jealous. Phloen was genuinely nice and this series could have easily been rewritten with him as the lead teaching Tin to let go of his inappropriate one-sided crush on his guardian figure. But given that wasn’t the case, I didn’t like that Tin played into his affection while simultaneously declaring that his heart would always be Park’s. Because Phloen explicitly states his intentions, and Tin hesitates to shut him down. He even says his “heart fluttered” when Phloen said he liked him and wanted to flirt with him. Either you like Park or you like Phloen — I don’t like it when characters play both sides. Ultimately Tin ends up rejecting Phloen because he likes Park and doesn’t want to lead Phloen on, and Phloen accepts the rejection gracefully. But when Tin runs into Phloen later, he also seems disappointed when Phloen says he’s fine and has moved on from his feelings. He’s already with Park at that point and Phloen is never seen again, so what was the point of that reaction?
There are a several instances where Park deals with jealousy in a healthy way, but also a couple other scenarios where he definitely doesn’t. When Phloen initially was flirting with Tin, Park says that it’s up to Tin what he wants to do and doesn’t interfere. But once they’re together, when Phloen comes by to drop something off, he glares from the doorway with a knife in his hand until he leaves. He also interferes and prevents someone from touching Tin by pretending he’s checking their pulse. When Phloen is in the hospital, he doesn’t have a problem with Tin visiting him, but he does come into the room to make sure there’s no flirting. When someone hits on Tin in the special episode, he doesn’t directly interfere and instead walks away to indicate his displeasure.
In terms of physical affection, everything was very high-school-coded, which didn’t help with the impression that Tin is childlike. They get together in episode 7, but wait until episode 9 to kiss, even though they’re apparently already in love. Their first kiss is the quickest peck ever, and then Park asks if Tin will kiss him again on his birthday, because apparently a kiss is a big occasion. The birthday kiss is a proper kiss, and Tin gets embarrassed at getting a boner as if that’s something to get embarrassed about as an adult. There was verbal consent preceding both kisses though, and they stop when Tin wants to stop. There’s a shirtless make out scene in the finale and a bathtub sex scene in the special episode. In the finale scene, Park asks verbally if Tin wants to stop, but also follows up by saying that he won’t stop if Tin doesn’t stop him now. I appreciate the verbal consent check, but saying that consent can’t be withdrawn later totally negates the point of asking for consent in the first place. The leads also really lacked chemistry so both scenes were pretty lackluster. The acting was awkward, not believable, and repetitive — like they’d keep moving and kissing the same way / areas over and over. It didn’t help that they were in the bathtub in their underwear and they didn’t attempt to edit it out at all. And I was a bit disappointed that Park appeared uncomfortable when Tin tried to take the lead and immediately took over himself. There was a general lack of casual kisses as part of regular affection too. The second couple had better chemistry, and their make out scene and special episode bathtub scene were better, but they didn’t hide their underwear in the bathtub either.
Consent / boundary issues: Tin insists on picking up Park from work every day, even though he doesn’t want him to. Tin grabs Park’s arm and refuses to let go to prevent him from leaving during an argument. Khana punches Pao in the face because Pao overdoses. They’re already in a romantic relationship at this point and no one calls this out as domestic violence and Khana never apologizes for it. There’s also instances of characters touching each others’ hair in their sleep. There’s a scene where Pei starts taking off her clothes in front of Tin and Park, while both seem uncomfortable with it. She acts like it’s no big deal, making comments about them wanting to look at or touch her body. And then she pressures Park into unzipping her in a flirty way when he doesn’t want to. It was presented in a comedic light, but was clear sexual harassment. There was also the aforementioned questionable consent check where Park says that if Tin doesn’t stop him now, he won’t stop.
Other small issues I had: Park proposes to Tin in the finale, but gay marriage wasn’t legal in Thailand at the time this series aired, so I would have liked to see them both get rings since it’s meant to be the longterm state of their relationship. Despite getting engaged though, they refer to each other as boyfriends and Tin isn’t wearing the ring in the special episode. There was also a scene where Park acts all grumpy with Tin and says he just gets annoyed by seeing Tin’s face. And then it was never explained further why he was actually upset, or if he was actually that much of a dick that he genuinely was annoyed by Tin’s face. And Khana makes a sexist comment to Barbie about her being a bad mood because she’s on her period, and follows it up with another sexist comment about how she’s on her period despite her “manly” appearance. She’s not even manly or a tomboy — she just doesn’t dress like a girly-girl.

An incredible law related drama from an aspiring lawyer.
This is my first time writing any type of comment on here, but I truly believe this drama deserves one from me. As an aspiring lawyer myself, this drama was just perfect in terms of legal terminology and knowledge—I genuinely learned so much from it. But beyond the legal aspects, the drama itself deserves its flowers.Each character (even the “bad” ones) was incredibly well written. They all had their own strengths, weaknesses, and moments of growth and change. The plot and overall story were also very well planned. The past few dramas I’ve watched all felt rushed nearing the end, but this drama absolutely nailed the ending, even with the cliffhanger.
Although many say this cliffhanger spoils the drama, I would argue the opposite. It’s the type of cliffhanger where you can still guess the ending, so it doesn’t really affect the overall story. One main complaint I’ve seen is how the drama loses its “competitive” storyline as it progresses, which I think is a valid point. However, I don’t believe it negatively impacts the story as a whole. I won’t go into too much detail, but the decisions made by each character felt very realistic, even when I personally didn’t agree with them.
Another aspect that was absolutely amazing was the acting. Every actor and actress played their role beautifully. Despite leaving certain things unresolved (the rent situation, the FL’s mom, etc.), I don’t think it takes away from the overall drama.
So, to quickly summarize: amazing drama, story, characters, plot, and even OST. If you’re someone interested in law, I would very very highly recommend it—and even if you’re just someone who enjoys workplace-type dramas, I would recommend it as well.
