The Film portrays assaultive. egocentric, quite narcistic men, and selfobssesed women ... but men treating women as their posessions, aside of the elder arrogant "bitches", Yoon Hyang Sook, Madam Jo and her "stupid" demanding daugther. There is way too much boozing shown and an antediluvian image of and objectifyed women, when it´s coming to the younger women. Mistreating and beaten up employees be their chefs. An abusive father. And generally men who don´t have their emotions in too many situations under control ... and a picture of the 2011 fallen NAZI Galliano in Yeong Gul´s office ...

The use of other people to get the to the goals one want to achieve is unfortunately common ... but this K Drama is toping such misbehavior. Even the bad treated Lee Ga Young who seems innocent, no naive.

Jung Jae Hyuk the chaebol´s son as love blinded, and out of contol character is sometimes portraied quite loveable, especially when getting overdemanding, abusive and playing the tough guy ... in the end as toxic, as his father, and Yeong Gul.

Yeong Gul end in New York is disturbing in 1st sight, but he said min 2 times in the show that he never will end like his father.

But that Lee Ga Young did not hear the bang ... literally or in the meaning of ... while talking a last time with her hate love is significanr for her charakter. She went to Jung Jae Hyuk to stay with him ... does she love him, as Jung Jae Hyuk suggested near the end of the show? The phone call evtl. was prior to the shoting of Yeong Gul who wasn´t bleeding out his head despite the bullet hit him there ...

The show is by far not a picture of the fashion industry ... but the abuse of models is quite common. And its with male and female models. Some are used as horizontal hosts and hostesses ... while others are used as nude display puppets ... or are raped men (like Bratt Pall and others, as from Abercrombie & Fitch, and others) and women, which can be destroyed by their abusers. And its not only by the fashion designers or photographers and their team.

For the fashion designers in this show ... Michael J and Director Kim ... playing obvious gay charakters. Stereotyped? Given to a scene in the elevator with Yeong Gul and Jung Jae Hyuk, hands at their throats; stop it or they think we are dating ... is so typical then more than today the conservative homophobic society of Korea. But that is changing to openess actually, despite an antifeminist and anti equality president.

... rewatch value? NO, not really.
... why did I watch till the bloody end? I just wanted to see the end ... as K Dramas are somehow addictive.
