  Exciting and Unpredictable! This TV series delivers an unexpected and satisfying conclusion that is sure to leave viewers on the edge of their seats. While it may have been slightly drawn out at times, this is a characteristic often associated with this particular genre. If you prefer a more logical and subdued storyline, then perhaps this series is not for you. What sets this show apart is its refusal to follow the typical cliches found in similar shows. Rather than rewarding the antagonists with unwarranted...

  happy endings, this series takes a refreshing approach by serving them a taste of justice. This departure from the usual narrative tropes adds a layer of depth and excitement that is both engaging and memorable. Overall, this series earns a solid recommendation from me, thanks to its bold and daring conclusion.

  This series really tried to pack a lot into its runtime, but it ended up dragging on for way too long. The main storyline had potential, but it shouldn't have been stretched out over so many episodes, especially without any compelling subplots to break it up. It felt like there was a missed opportunity for more complexity and conflict, particularly involving the female characters who were underutilized.
  
  One frustrating aspect was how the character May was treated as just another conquest, with her best friend marrying...

  the guy she had feelings for without much acknowledgment of May's emotions. The lack of proper resolution for this storyline highlighted the overall lack of depth and conflict in the series. The character Jen was a standout for me, as her motivations and actions were often unclear, leaving me wondering what her true intentions were.
  
  The character Mew's presence also felt confusing, as his role in the story seemed unclear and his acting left much to be desired. The motivations of many of the characters remained muddled throughout the series, leaving the viewer feeling lost and disconnected from their journeys.
  
  One particular plotline that fell flat was the sudden shift from cheating to marriage fraud, which felt rushed and poorly developed. The inconsistencies in the storyline, such as the forgotten plotlines and abrupt changes in character arcs, detracted from the overall viewing experience.
  
  Despite some enjoyable moments, the series ultimately missed the mark for me. The lack of engaging storytelling and character development left me feeling bored and, upon reflection, somewhat frustrated with the missed opportunities in the series.
