Revenge (2022)

Fun watch that didn’t really drag much. It follows your typical revenge drama formula with some focus on acupuncture and herbal medicine used as the MC's weapons of choice.

The main character, Phing, is very likeable and you feel the pain and anguish she goes through from being conned and then left for dead with her loved ones. I was totally absorbed in her quest for revenge. For me, the best part was watching the baddies eventually back stab each other as Phing set up her traps for them. Watching them suffer is satisfying, ok lol. Some characters I felt like got off way too easy for what they did, but in 12 episodes, the writers did their best with them.

Loved the ending. It’s like finally being able to exhale after watching Phing go through so much shit and being patronized along the way. A story can’t be good without having an MC I can be invested in, and Phing is a fantastic MC.

Doesn’t hurt that the supporting characters and especially the actors playing the bad guys brought their A-game, too. Art, Bee N, Victor and Duangta all slayed in their roles.
