2. Because This Is My First Life

I think the FL was a little out of character at the end, and the writer seemed to add in a cliche plot element that I think could have taken another route and made the drama more unique, but overall this was a fantastic and refreshing watch.

Really engaging plot that kept you guessing until almost the very end. The script was always on point and very well threaded together. The ending could have been a little better, especially if you focus on the justice aspect of the drama; but mostly this was a really well told story about moral dilemmas and the choices one makes in the face of them.
