The plot and the acting in this series are much more convincing than I'd have expected. This could be troubling for those looking for clean, happy endings; however, they do mix in their share of happy endings as well. There's a clear thread connecting the various stories with, to me, a satisfying payoff in the finale. These characters have original quirks and personalities you're not obligated to like; they're flawed.
In all honesty, I picked up the series for the cast. Although I had to wait a while for Off's proper story, I thought it was worth it and was impressed by his acting at such an early point in his career.
All that said, I did have some complaints. For instance, I thought some of the queer representation was poor. Although her friends redeemed themselves some, Min was emotionally abused by them. The comments they make throughout Min's episode about the prospects of fluctuating or fluid sexuality were damaging not only to Min but to some viewers' perceptions of gay women. It's not to say that they don't represent some real views, but those are in the minority. And in a community so little represented, it's maligning to make that some of the so few depictions people will see.
I also thought episode nine was a little ridiculous but I could tolerate it.
