It deviates from the usual kdrama tropes and I love it for that.

I love that it explored the issues of sexual assault, gender inequality and discrimination whilst also making it not seem too forced and commercial.

I also love that it explored the bdsm world in a more open and honest manner. Most kdramas tend to shy away from sex and taboo topics so I found it really refreshing to see one that didn’t treat it as a weird perversion but rather just something normal that shouldn’t affect or involve anyone else and that a woman being into things sexually is nothing for men to fetishise or pry into as it has nothing to do with those who are not involved.

I think that the acting was done very well and the visual effect were exemplary. The music wasn’t really memorable as I got too invested in the story but I don’t think that it was bad.

Overall, I think this is worth the watch although it may not be everyone’s cup of tea and I don’t think it requires the adult rating that it has if you are thinking of western standards.
