Pudding Jan 06 2026 11:59 am Jo Eun Su is the MVP but Jin So Baek is the GOAT

JP Dec 23 2025 9:22 am Hui-Su's character is so unbelievably timid and quite frankly stupid. Every sound she hears, she trembles and cries. She trips on her own and lies on the floor, crying and shaking. Doesn't call for help when threatened by Jin Young, it goes on and on. Why did they write her like that? Also, she said several times she was going to take care of the situation, how did she plan on doing that when she had no inner resources to take care of herself? The writers could have done better with her character, or maybe it's her acting.

Who Dec 23 2025 7:42 am I don't like the abusers sister, she has the audicity to revenge when in fact itvwas all his brother all doing. She knows that his brother is abusive. Her and his brother are psychopath

Bagu Dec 11 2025 5:08 pm Loved this one! After WLGYT, it's my favorite of the year so far. It has themes that touch all women, and they were perfectly explored. The acting was excellent, and the plot wasn’t predictable, with a very original approach to domestic violence. I loved how human and imperfect the characters were, especially Eun Su. And the chemistry between Eun Su and So Beak was insane — I was expecting something to happen every time they were together on screen. Hands up to Lee Yoo Mi and Jang Seung Jo; their acting felt so real. Jin Pyo and his family were so hateful that I wanted to deal with them myself every time they appeared on screen. It’s sad to see how similar most of the characters’ behavior was to real people dealing with domestic violence, which explains why it continues at such high levels. Overall, this show is amazing and not at all predictable or boring. Even the ending was excellent — it felt like everything was resolved, with everyone paying for their actions and moving on with their lives. This show was great, and once I finished it, I felt like there was nothing else left to watch. I hope to see more shows like this. And I hope Jeon So Nee gets lots of new projects, as she’s one of my favorite actresses right now.

AYSB1208 Dec 08 2025 7:27 am I agree with everything Irish (the commenter below me) said. Thrilling, great acting, and very satisfying ending. Jang Seungjo and Lee Yoomi were amazing!!! If they don't win or at least get nominated for acting awards, I Will Riot!

Mariz Nov 24 2025 4:25 am Just finished this in one day. Amazing plot, casts, and acting. I was really hooked with the story and the casts' acting, I felt like I was also part of each episodes. I love how responsible JSB was from the very beginning up to the last episode. He initiated the idea to JES to commit the "perfect" crime but that obviously failed, however, he still assisted the two until the end. And he somehow became a friend as well. There's something between JSB and JES that draws me in, definitely needed some romance between the two.

But anyways, the show is a great awareness of domestic violence, showcasing how different the perspective is, both for victims and abusers. It also gave us idea on how to approach someone who is being abused. And I hope this could be an eye-opener for everyone that violence is never the answer. And I hope this can also give us the courage to fight; to be stronger, to face our fears, to help, to reach out, and to speak up. Remember, it's not your fault.

hanafi jabar Nov 21 2025 1:38 am Can you give me a title ost ending in last eps 8 ,i not found this song wkwkwk

G Nov 20 2025 5:05 am “90% of domestic issues go unresolved… that’s just how things are.”

Only at ep 2 and I want to climb into the TV to slap the female cop (who happens to the abuser’s sister). If the stats are accurate, then that’s a real big problem in S Korea’s mentally unhealthy, terribly misogynistic society.

France Nov 19 2025 2:35 am Mr Jin So-Baek, He's the kind of adult that i need right now.

Lee Seohwa Nov 17 2025 7:20 pm Jang Kang is so hilarious and stupid for getting kidnapped many times! Jang Kang’s evil plot scene is funny because he is a fool for falling into trap Jinyoung’s trap easily many times!

Noriny Nov 17 2025 1:13 am A gripping and suspenseful drama which I enjoyed thoroughly, despite the many plot twists and turns. Love all the cast who played their parts very well. A big pat on the back for all of you..

Marianne Nov 14 2025 1:19 pm Such an awareness of domestic violence, all of the actors are exceptional. Have to take breaks though to pause between the violence and praying for a positive outcome. Will be crushed if not.

Azy Nov 13 2025 1:41 pm Lee Mu Saeng gives off Sung Kang vibes..

ester Nov 13 2025 4:36 am this was such a good drama focusing on abusive partners, everyone played their role perfectly! I was patiently hoping for some romance scene between Jin so baek and Jo Eun-su but the director didn't give us anything. Man those looks and stare of So baek to Eun su tells everything! I want them them in romantic drama with similar to their role in this juseyooooo!

Wida Hahn Nov 13 2025 1:59 am Lee Mu Saeng in here looks like Ekin Cheng

Sushi87 Nov 12 2025 1:26 am This drama is frantastic i finished in two days. Great actors! OMG the suspense!

Camille Nov 11 2025 1:10 pm I was hoping for at least one love scene from Eunsu and Sobaek but I failed.

eau Nov 11 2025 11:08 am Am I the only one shipping eun so and so baek's romance? Every time they appear together, I am hoping for a little bit of romance for the two of them.

AMAN Nov 11 2025 10:41 am This is really a good drama, Raising voice for domestic violence. definitely worth to watch. Both Jeon So-Nee & Lee Yoo-Mi have done splendid job specially & i'm also impressed with Jang Seung-Jo's acting portraying villain..rather then playing a Good guy he is best at playing bad guy..

pinkparka Nov 11 2025 5:46 am Lee Mu-Saeng portrayed Mr. Jin So Baek perfectly!!! He’s so charming whenever he comes out on the screen. To the casting team: you did great! All of the cast are perfect making the characters well-executed. Thank you for bringing domestic violence into light so that people will be more aware of it. Please cast Lee Mu-Saeng more

Bienie Nov 10 2025 7:21 pm Whatta twist! Such amazing drama?

Chamonks Nov 10 2025 9:34 am I am a huge fan of Lee Mu Saeng. His character here as Jin So Baek is like an extension to his character in Maestra: Strings of Truth.

Nadia Nov 10 2025 9:31 am It's an amazing drama. Some scenes were hard to watch, and I was on the edge of my seat for most of it. The fact that Jin Pyo's mother and sister knew that Hui Su was being abused and do nothing about it made me feel sick. I had high hopes when I first found out that the sister was a police officer, but I was wrong. Jin So Baek is really their guardian angel. The girl would have got into a lot of trouble without his help. This drama also marks the first time I have watched Jeon Seo-kyeong act. I will check out her future projects. Jang Seung Jo should play more roles like this. Standout performance!

Hui Nov 10 2025 2:10 am Domestic violence is really scary. Is good she got friends someone ready to help her, while irl some woman didn't get that much support from others. They said "it's your problem, it's family matter i don't want to interfere."

No friends, no help, no one ready to protect them.

Joyce Nov 09 2025 9:14 pm Where can I find the music to this series. Especially the last song on the beach. Beautiful

Daily Nov 08 2025 4:36 pm The first episodes were really good. A bit to repetitive at some points but great in general. But the further it got, the more it dragged on with some crazy plot lines. (lots of back and forth)

Kiera Nov 07 2025 5:50 pm This was really great I love when they mix real life family with crime and not so heavy but just enough definitely recommend I watched all today that’s how good! Acting incredible!

Cara Nov 07 2025 5:27 am This series look like Ride or Die movie from japan

Betty Oct 25 2025 6:23 pm I know right @ last comment . Jang was so good as good guy specially cop , but he loved to play husband cheater and villain. He is good either way .

Adn Jul 28 2025 10:43 am Jang Seung jo seems like will be the villain. I like him a lot, so it will hard for me to see him as bad guy

Ek..... Feb 23 2025 1:33 pm Sounds interesting.

Bad But Blessed Nov 16 2024 3:14 am Why do I have a bad feeling about the guy that trying to help them the girls

Julz Oct 13 2024 5:57 am One can’t wait for this drama!
