I belong to the group of people who think this is an above average show, with some untapped potential to be more memorable than it is.
I was drawn to watch this show because the number of episodes is relatively shorter than others, and it's mainly about revenge.
Whilst it's true that the main motive of the characters get together is revenge, the main plot actually centres itself in the camaraderie and strong sisterhood bond between the lead characters.
I love that there's this interesting dynamic in play when three adult women are joined by a male high school student to execute their plans. In that way this show has definitely succeeded in giving us the witty action plans (or lack thereof) for their revenge execution.
Nevertheless, what slightly disappointed me was the fact that their revenge plots felt really amateurish at times, since I came here hoping for very badass women who have all the guts and intelligence to overthrow their opponents in a dramatic and savage way (trust me, those bad guys really deserve it). Therefore the conclusion of this show did feel very anti-climactic and lackluster to me.
In that sense, what overall saved this drama for me was definitely the fact that the writers have successfully made me emotionally invest on the characters more than the plot. Thus, if you're a strong character-driven person, you'll definitely enjoy watching this one by a lot.
