Beautiful, gripping, dark


Perfect plot. Everything is so interwoven, interconnected. Right from the first scene in ep1 to the end of ep16, everything falls so perfectly in place
Each character had so much depth, they were so much more than what was shown initially. In the beginning you just get to know the surface of these characters. Mei bao, Mo li, Da Sen,Ye Mei li, Xiao Ling, even Yang Rui Sen's boyfriend( he was such a supportive and encouraging partner to her when she needed him) all perfectly written characters. No one was their as dummy to just cater to a scene. Every character had his own foundation, his own development,
This drama talks about family, what it is, it doesn't have to be defined by the boundaries of blood ties, It talks about mental issues and how it difficult it is to break out of the fences one makes after a trauma to protect themselves. It talks about righteousness- what defines it, is it our set of morals or the law that defines it. How everyone struggles with their own flaws, their own burdens and how everyone has a skeleton in their closet.

And in the end, amazing ost- You and I by Aila Gato and Philip Halloun, definitely fits into the setting of this drama
Would definitely recommend it
