After I watched it for the first time, I just thought it was pretty decent. But as days passed by, this drama put my in a slump. Nothing was giving me joy like watching KP MV's. If you are a dark romance girlie, you will absolutely eat this up. I obviously would not recommend this to everyone. If you are triggered by dub-con/torture... this ain't it.

Let me start off by saying that the cast/screenwriters completely carried this drama. The storyline is basic af. The fact that so much was changed and adapted lets you know how much everyone elevated this. Every couple shine in their own way (different couples for different levels???). The main couple was just chef kiss. And I am not talking about the toxic consent/non-consent parts. Straight up, they have one of the best on-screen chemistry I have ever seen in an asian drama. When they kissed, it doesn't feel weird or out of place (like kissing a plastic cardboard). They played their parts so well that it's easy to get lost into. Their tension and attraction is never lacking.

This has the perfect amount of everything (humor, romance, action, etc...) without going overboard. I didn't feel bored because they pacing was pretty decent and cohesive enough. The only weakness (IMO) in the cast/acting was Barcode but understandably he was very young compared to the other cast member. However, his cuteness and innocence really shine through in Porchay. I do love KimChay chemistry/dynamic. My second favorite.

The couples are very toxic in different ways but the acting is so good. They elevated the characters and brought them to life. I cannot believe this is BIble first time acting. I am impatient waiting for his next project. Although I didn't really care for his character/romance--I see the potential.

Soundtrack and cinematography was great. I dig the color palette.

I'm gonna be real, I can rewatch this drama a couple times a year LOL.
