Honestly Boring

I was expecting the revenge drama of the century from what I was told from other people. It felt like everyone and their mothers was watching this and raving about it, and when I finally get round to doing so myself, it has fallen completely flat.

What even was that I'm sorry lads but likeeee. So slow. No revenge. Song Hye Kyo's character was so boring I'm sorry but I just have to say it, girly showed zero emotion in my opinion and had no personality, she wasn't compelling at all. I agree it was horrible what happened to her, and I think the flashback scenes and actors were done very well to show those horrors, but I felt no passion towards her adult self's "revenge" because WHERE WAS IT? I literally feel like nothing happened. Fine you could say "ah it's a slow burn, she wants to destroy their lives slowly and subtly", but right like give me anything at all please, the burn was so slow that the fire got put out completely and I didn't care about the destruction at all. It didn't even end with a bang.

Also Lee Do Hyun's character felt so wedged in there, I feel like he just appeared and we are just expected to accept it, like bro what do you mean you've stuck around for that long without reciprocation and now you're willing to lay down EVERYTHING for this woman. I'm sorry bestie but I'm not buying it. I liked Im Ji Yeon's character, I thought she portrayed her role well, as did Jung Sung Il, I think him finding things out was the most exciting part of the drama because it was like oooo something is actually happening FINALLY because secrets are actually getting out, when secrets are being leaked between the bullies it is all just silent threat like who cares within that little bubble, they're all aware of the bullying anyway, but Jung Sung Il on the other hand ooooo if *he* knew then that would change things. His character and storyline would honestly be the only thing making me mildly inclined to watch the second season. I also liked Yeom Hye Ran's character because woooo personality!!! Proof that not everybody in this universe is an absolute robot.

I wanted to see Song Hye Kyo actually do things to make these guys' lives hell, make them genuinely fearful and remorseful, (and maybe I will get that if I watched the next season but lets be real lads I really cba) but all I really saw in this is people just take her side way too easily and roll over for her, it wasn't even like she was silently scary, I felt no emotion when she was giving threats, and felt no shock when things got "revealed" by her hand and when she "blackmailed" people. Maybe I'm just asking the wrong thing of this drama and my taste is just too naïve to enjoy such a subtle revenge drama like this but fine sue me for wanting something big and bold and shocking to happen. I lowkey wish they just like committed and made her a full blown psychopath or something, I need her to adopt crazy b**** mode, get some real revenge girly, and show some chaotic joy as you see them burn. Instead we just got Song Hye Kyo like :| 24/7. We aren't seeing you reap the benefits of your "revenge" which makes me question if it's even there in the first place!

Again, maybe I'm asking too much and this is the wrong kinda drama for me, and I'm just being impatient but come onnnnn *something* could've happened this season surely, it felt like we got absolutely nowhere. People might say to me "season 2 will give you everything you desire from this drama! Just watch it and the revenge starts properly!" but brooooo be for reallll I went through an entire season and got nothing, what was it even for, you can't tell me this whole season was just building the foundations, what a waste of time. Surely there was a better way of setting up for the real showdown without spending an entire 8 episodes on it. I'm not gonna wait a whole season for a tiny little spark. Sadly pretty damn disappointed eek ://
