My Extraordinary (2020) Episode 7: Wishing Tree

I can understand the disappointments and frustrations over Episode 7: Wishing Tree. Lots of people prefer happy endings.

Screenplay was good. Aside from Yayo, kudos to Enzo and Z for their acting. Z's Lawrence is probably the most endearing (alive) character on this series. Production design, cinematography, and editing were satisfactory. The OST "Suspended in Midair" by Vicente DeJesus featuring Kenji Exaltacion made me even sadder.
