I loved this drama because it's so hard to guess what'll happen next. The last time I felt like every episode truly ended on a question mark was when I watched my first drama, Boys Over Flowers. Because I hadn't seen all the drama tropes yet, it was new and now not many dramas surprise me but this one did.

I don't think it's about any characters being good or bad, but unfortunate circumstances that can come with living. It's really about trauma. They all have their motives for gaining happiness and most of it depends on what they lost as children so it's a really understandable pain.

I don't even think of Eight as being greedy. It's clear he wanted money to fix his family, not just for selfish careless reasons otherwise he would've been satisfied as a host. Instead he intentionally saved his money.

While looking for content by other people that've watched this, it felt like it might've not been that known during airing? Maybe because it was available on Hulu? I hope it can become a cult classic because it was really well written, not just the characters' morals but the plot itself was a lot of work to keep track of as a scriptwriter. I hope the writer, Yoshihiro Izumi, is acknowledged for this work.

The romance itself is also not typical. While a lot of people might watch for the kisses, just like Eight says, "Without any emotions a kiss becomes a weapon." Yes, technically they can be called kisses, but the lack of feeling in them, how they're used as a tool, turns the kiss into a simple fact of skin on skin. I found it refreshing how falling in love was portrayed without romance.

It really is a unique drama for the characters' ages. Shows this thrilling are usually reserved for older characters and mostly like detective/spy/police type plots? Usually people in this age range would be acting in regular high school or university dramas so I bet it was satisfying for the actors to be able to try something different too.
