this was literally insane. there were so many times i got literal whiplash from the amount of plot twists in this oh my gods. the start was really like weird, just in general i sat there staring at my screen like, oh!.. there's maybe one or two freak ass scenes between some of the main characters, but they're mostly like: "character A was dreaming about freak shit lolol!!!!" so i don't even think it counts. either way, once you get past the freak shit it's like really good!! also this is entire thing is HEAVYILY LACED with implied wlw between the seulgi and jaeyi but it's never like, verbally said nor confirmed (i guess??? but like at the same time yes it is because it’s based off of the manhwa (?) bro idk) anyway, this had me sitting here literally playing detective with the way these people were stealing, selling and abusing not only drugs, but people and information. like bro.. CSATs are never that serious!!! regardless, it was so so good, from character writing to just plot line, literal chefs kiss i highly recommend!!!!
