This is such a sensational drama, that truly does stand out from the rest. Personally I loved it from the beginning and I was so invested by it that I even considered it as the most well done crime mystery drama at some point. It is really hard to objectively rate this drama as it takes some unexpected turn and I'm still not sure how to feel about it.

I originally started Misty because I read somewhere that there is a strong female lead in it. That was enough reason for me to watch at least the first episode. However, once you finish this very first episode, believe me, there is no way back.

Go Hye Ran is a strong ambitious woman who works as an anchor for a news station and is considered as the best in her field. She has set clear goals in her life and she is ready to do anything to reach them. However behind her success, there are a lot of sacrifices, hard made decisions and her personal life is a mess. One day, she becomes the prime suspect for a murder and her husband who works as a lawyer will try to clear her name. This is the initial situation, I really can’t say more without giving you some spoilers so I’ll stop here.

The storyline is perfection. From episode one to the very end, the suspense and mystery are present and you will struggle to restore the truth behind the appearance. Every time you think you have the right answer, new facts will arise and make you establish new theories and doubt new characters. Misty, indeed.

The actors were all great, especially Kim Nam Joo who is the highlight of this drama. She is so incredible that now I can not imagine someone else for this role. I believe that the most important thing in this drama are the characters and their development. The choices they have made through their lives and where those choices have brought them. Did they made the right decisions? How far did they go to reach happiness?

I have to say one word about the stunning camera work. The cinematography is truly beautiful, the camera captures the essence of the thematic through aesthetically pleasing angles, colors and framing.

But then I have to say a word about the fashion design as well. Go Hye Ran is one of the most well-dressed woman I’ve seen in kdramas. So many screenshots on my computer and how many times did I thought « I want to dress like her when I’m older ». Classy and elegant.

The music plays an important role in this drama and fits perfectly to each scene. While it adds more effect to the suspens and more impact to the action, it also manages to capture our hearts with the beautiful, nostalgic and calm soundtrack.

My only regret is the ending, as a twisted drama I was expecting something more till the very end. A lot of people say that the end is just fine for them and I tried to make up my mind as well but I can’t hide my disappointment. With another ending, I would give this a 10/10 for sure.
