A drama which is true to every character’s motivations.
This drama showcases the spectacular unravelling of what appears to be a picture perfect marriage.
Sun Woo and Tae Oh’s married life begins an irreversible downward spiral when Sun Woo discovers that he has been cheating on her; a game of cat and mouse, revenge and one-upmanship ensues between the devastated Sun Woo and the self - justifying Tae Oh.
The actions of these two eventually led me to not root for them as both are equally flawed and grey characters. Initially Sun Woo has the moral high ground as the wronged wife, but soon enough some of her actions become morally questionable. In her quest to best her ex husband, Sun Woo makes some very questionable decisions and is only concerned with winning the war.
The other characters are very well fleshed out, and I was especially impressed with the skillful handling of the relationship between Ye Rim and Je Hyuk; the ebb, flow and final ebb of their marriage is realistically exposed.
Da Kyung, the mistress who became a wife, had my sympathy sometimes, I suppose that’s a testament to the excellent acting in this show. In fact Da Kyung’s handling of Tae Oh is way more impressive than Sun Woo’s.
This drama also depicts women’s role in society quite well. In the beginning Sun Woo was shunned after the divorce, and even before that her friends kept secrets behind her back. Tae Oh’s secretary is a divorced mother of one and has been relegated to the fringes of society, she is ineligible to mingle with her peers simply because she’s divorced.
Sun Woo is at one point criticized behind her back for standing up for herself and not letting Tae Oh get away with his shameless actions.
The acting in this is brilliant by each and every cast member, for me that’s the biggest draw of this show, the self assured acting ensured that I was always fully engaged and duly impressed while watching the show.
I understand that this is an adaptation of the BBC’s Doctor Foster. The Korean version is less conniving and mean spirited, it has an element of emotional softness if that makes sense.
The two victims of this saga are the two children Joon Young and Je Ni.
What I didn’t like so much was the way the show used dramatic music and sound effects to ratchet up the suspense, ultimately this turned out to be overkill because of the trajectory the show ended up following.
The ambiguous ending was a bit meh for me, show was strong throughout so it would have been great to end on a strong note.
There were some unanswered questions like who killed In Gyu? I didn’t like the way Hyun Seo was discarded abruptly from the storyline, it would have been great to see how she was faring at the conclusion of the story.
The ost is good, I noticed and appreciated the music but it remained unobtrusive.
After watching the first two episodes, I was convinced I’d give this drama a 10, but ultimately it turned out to be a 9, and the majority of this score is for the phenomenal acting.
Definitely worth watching.
