This review may contain spoilers
I'm still shaking from the thrill I got from the last few episodes.
This was an amazing and emotional roller coaster ride! I got sucked in immediately with the first episode. The foundation was set and the suspense really crept in during the first few episodes. I can't write a review without spoiling it so these has mostly spoilers below this paragraph so be warned.
I love how the drama didn't shy away from presenting us the ultimate person who we should be suspicious of in the first episode. They clearly showed the creepy neighbor's disgusting actions to drive our female lead to isolation and despair. Yet, the drama series didn't lack in suspense. What I thought was a clear cut solution that the creepy neighbor was already the Hamelin culprit at the beginning forked into multiple paths and possibilities during the fourth episode and so on. The last few episodes took my breath away as everything is pieced together beautifully and emotionally. This was also made possible with credits to the amazing acting of ALL of the cast! Our female lead really stood out among the pack as you can't help but root for her and her character development until the end of the series was superb. I love her acting especially her sometimes funny facial expressions! Also kudos to the actress who played the creepy neighbor because she really made me hate her character and her acting was also great during the emotional scenes.
In a sense, there are multiple ways a mother shows her love to her children. There were some twisted ways of showing love in this drama but it still kept its track on the theme of mother hood and love. Although it was dark and twisty, typical of a Japanese drama, this was still a solid and a surprising 9.5/10 for me!
