Long Secret





First of all I would like to warn everyone that this series is one of those “hold the secret until almost the very end” type bombshell shows. If you are one that do not like long drawn out secrets you may want to steer clear of this one because that is absolutely what you get. The writers did have a way of adding more unknown secrets onto the secrets that most viewers were already aware of.

This is one of the first times that I was a bit conflicted about writing a review. First, I would like to point out that the beginning of story itself is really good however the progress and/or development is not ideal. The beginning of this series focused on just that, the beginning. It follows our main characters from childhood and it really shines a light into who they are and how they met and how their bond and relationships developed over time. I find that the beginning of the series was absolutely adorable because it really show the innocence of the characters as youth. It showed their energy and ultimately their temperament as well. What stood out to me about the beginning of the series was that the reveal of community families to include the significance on a child’s life experiences, security and growth. It was very hard moving and fun to watch.

Once the cast transitioned from childhood to adulthood things somewhat took a turn. The pacing stayed relatively the same. The actors changed, naturally as expected, but the warm and fuzzy we got from the youth experience disappears/disintegrates/burns. The show takes a complete 360° turn it. It went from warm and fuzzy to crazy, shock and regrets. That’s right I said regret. After watching 60 episodes it becomes really apparent that the warm and fuzzy may not return until the very end. Sadly that very end is 60 episodes away. I have honestly watch so many episodes of this series and at this point I feel like I just wanna see how it ends. I am no longer invested in the middle pieces although I do plan to watch them. I’m only watching to see how it ends at this point. If you’re a lover of smooth sailing shows like me, be warned. Although there is the mystery series drags it out a bit longer than I’d like.

To make matters worst, I waited 80 episodes for someone to just tell the truth about 1 thing. 1 THING!. The script is far out there. I can’t think of anyone on earth or in drama land that would actually allow themselves to be bullied and manipulated while knowing that they have the power to take down the bully or at least suppress them. On another note I can’t think of any bully that will continue bullying knowing that the other people have the power to destroy them. Things just didn’t make sense. Throughout the series, I continued to ask myself “why are they letting the evil people get away it?” And “why don’t they just tell the truth?”

These people held a secret for no apparent reason. No exaggeration! and they suffered needlessly.


To top it all off we have a Guardian who has add the blue develop feelings for the very elementary person that he took in and raised from such a young age. Let’s ignore the fact that he has an aged at all but the very thought of it seems quite uncomfortable. There is really no way to foil this. This guy was already an adult running a restaurant. He was most certainly not a teenager but probably in his 20s and she was a kid that looked about 8 years old.

Am I still watching? More like skimming. Why? I would like to see the father and daughter connect. What I recommend it? Nope. Would I rewatch it? Absolutely not.

I have never, ever, ever watched a series that is as twisted as this. The power is twisted, the parental relationships are twisted, the friendships are twisted and if I have to be completely honest the adults are now appearing twisted as well. Reason has left this series.


This is by far one of the worst dramas that I have ever watched. And I have watched a lot. First of all within this very very unusual drama you have a criminal who commits crime repeatedly and never get punished even though everyone knows that they were criminal. Everyone just casually pretends that nothing ever happened. Secondly we have an overly passive female lead who is suppose to be smart and strong but everything about her character reeks obliviousness, weakness and stupidity. Thirdly we have this weird out of the blue romantic interest of a child and guardian after years have passed. Not only was this awkward but it was also random and unsupported. Fourth, what shall I say we had that magic ending where we just assume that everyone lives happily ever after. No charges were pressed. We’re friends with the murderer of our parents. We marry people that we don’t really like and the end. This was just the strangest bunch of mess I’ve ever seen.
Titanic vibes, #CPR COULN’T SAVE THIS!

My brief synopsis of this series is as follows:. A good guy with a secret that could destroy the bad guy. Good guy holds the secret while being trampled by the bad guy. Bad guy knows that the good guy holds the secret that is crucial but still behaves wickedly. So ultimately what you’ll get while watching the series is the good guy having the power and ability to destroy the bad guy but instead of doing so they allow themselves to be bullied, lied on, controlled and manipulated for over half the series. At least up to 80.
It was like watching someone hold a weapon but standing still to get beat up. WHY???????
