This drama...

...is heavy.

Imagine Misaeng (Incomplete Life) but more depressing and hopeless. Kind of like getting sucked into a black hole and not dying.

And now that I've made you feel terrible about life, let me explain to you why you should watch this drama for Exactly this reason.

You're going to become attached to these characters. Dong Hoon and Ji An's lives are heartrendingly bleak and miserable and unfair, and the drama does not shy away from this fact. Instead, this is the driving force behind everything that happens in the story.

You're gonna hope anxiously that they will get some sort of relief, respite, redemption, restoration, justice. (I wish I could think of a word starting with r that means the same thing as justice.)

And you're going to find yourself frequently disappointed. Sometimes outraged.

What I'm saying is you're gonna feel bad while watching this drama, but you're gonna like it, so you might as well go ahead and watch it already.

So just go ahead and watch it already.
