Beautifully written and acted drama
I love Cdramas and love the tropes and over-the-top plots, but sometimes it’s nice to come across something a little more steeped in realism, and this drama scratches that itch perfectly. Centered around a trio of friends all dealing with challenges in their professional and personal lives, the drama is entertaining without resorting to overt melodrama or descending into farce. Every challenge is easily one the audience can empathize with and, in some cases, has experienced. In particular, I really loved how they handled the issue of infidelity from the perspective of both sides and without excuses, vilifying one side, or shying away from saying the painful truth out loud. Same for the relationships in general. No one was painted a martyr or a saint. Not all breakups were because of ground shaking moments and not all reconciliations were due to one character simping their way back into good graces. Opportunities were found and lost and that loss regretted. A very human drama that touches on the complexities of life.
