I haven’t seen a kdrama this raw in a while. Some scenes are very disturbing so don’t watch this if you’re expecting a True Beauty vibe just because it’s about an ugly girl who wants to be pretty- FAR FROM IT.

The turn of events from a psychological thriller to a literal thriller did seem a little sudden to me, but since this drama is the story of one specific character and her specific story, I suppose it makes sense. Regardless, there were some parts that didn’t fit into the storyline and made me think ‘why did she do that??’, ‘why wouldn’t she do this?’, etc.

Kim Kyung-Ja was a horrible character- perfectly written. I hated her character so much because she portrays the perfect ‘boy mum’ that irks you to the core!

The drama is good for a one-time watch and has a captivating storyline to keep you hooked but beware: there are uncomfortable scenes and touchy topics. Very heartbreaking.
