A makjang that doesn’t disappoint is how I would describe this drama. From the first episode, it’s ridiculously entertaining! The characters are exactly who they promise to be and the chemistry between the leads is sizzling. Who stood out to me the most was the actress who plays the main character, Yi Joo. From one moment where she was absolutely in the bits to the next moment when she was owning her revenge, so well done! I’ve seen the ML in few other dramas too and his acting could do a lot more improvement but it adds into to the genre anyway, The supporting characters are over the top and the evil ones go full on evil. It’s been a while a drama begins and ends so satisfactorily. Keeping it to twelve episodes helped immensely in not stretching the story unnecessarily. This had conflicts which got resolved very soon. And the ending? I can’t think of anything that they left without wrapping up.

One issue and a spoiler in the story is the steamy scene between the leads could have been directed well. The intentional or unintentional non consensual bed scene was an extremely uncomfortable watch. It’s 2023 and forceful initiation of physical contact really needs to end.
