Trash but addictive

1/ STORY:

Two best friends working together have their friendship and their life turned upside down due to unexpected events. One decides to stir up the life of the other until the shit goes up the surface and hits the fan. Trash characters making trash choices out of their own miserable situation and justifying all this by the pain they are suffering. The horrible circus of lame human beings gesticulating and hurting each other, taking advantage of each other, lying to each other, yelling at each other, begging forgiveness, crying their heart out of their misery is pathetic and irksome but also fun to watch as we want to know what happens them in the end.

2/ CHARACTERS/ ACTORS:
- EK: Lame character who became obsessed and started hurting people she thinks mistreated her. Lame excuses for a lame behavior. Challenging role for Seo Ju Hye but she did well as a master of puppets.

- Ba Da was the best part of the drama. Sure, she had her shortcomings, and she prejudiced many people while being too selfish but at least she was not ill intended. In the end she facecd a big choice and did something good. Bravo girl. Loved Hong Soo Hyun in this drama.

- CW: His life was fine until he started to lust after someone. Lame, bland, a coward, undecisive, the guy had no foresight and never saw the manipulation coming. Weak link in the drama. Lee Sang Woo perfectly bland and annoying faces.

- Eun San: little brat who needed to prove she can turn a loser 20y older than her into a decent father and man of the house she never had. Her falling in love with him in the process is a good case for a shrink.

- Old Cow NC eat young grass and in the end, he becomes a boss. Good job. The actor really looked too old and unsophisticated for me.

- The two mothers: take the head of one to smash the head of the other with it.
- EK's mom and dad: pathetic losers and unworthy parents who raised two lunatic daughters.
- The rich chairman grandfather: Should be sent to jail for assault.
- Uncle: started decent man but then entered the crazy cheating maelstrom.
- Ex of EK: Jerk and a real moron. Well done.
- Mi Poong: please shut her up.

3/ OST:
A bit repetitive but good overall.

4/ REWATCHABLE VALUE:
None for me. Too long. Too trash. No memorable scenes to enjoy.

5/OVERALL:

Most of the characters are annoying and crazy indecent persons at some point of the drama or all along the drama for some of them. They all are imperfect and doing some crazy trash thing but somewhere, they manage to gain your sympathy and make you interested in them and in what will happen to them. I was hooked enough to watch until the ending which was good enough to not make me think I lost my time. I found a logical evolution in most of the main characters that is satisfactory enough.

Not a great show but it was enjoyable putting myself in the shoes of these crazy people. I will rate this 8/10 but only recommend it to people who are not afraid of crazy hysterical plot with lots of trash situation.
