1. [+670, -39] It's good

2. [+511, -6] I was so surprised when I heard that the bullying in real life is worse.. and that 99% of the victims don't get to enact revenge like this but just live on with their wounds. Money and power really is everything when it comes to avoiding difficulties in life like bullying in school.. in the workplace.. in the army.. These aren't issues that we should be holding back on but our kids learn to hold it in at such a young age.. The drama broke my heart the entire time watching..

3. [+333, -16] Kim Eun Sook wrote this as if she was possessed by a writing god, it's so good

4. [+268, -29] Song Hye Gyo's acting is amazing... especially for someone who's presumably never experienced these things. The five antagonists are fantastic as well.

5. [+137, -2] Moving forward, the internet chasing after the identities of real life bullies should not be seen as doxxing but rather regarded as the people's court. These criminals deserve to have their names dragged through the media so that their lives and the generation after and the generation after are never able to hold their heads up in society. The moment you decide to tread upon the rights of others, it should be known that you forfeit yours as well.

6. [+99, -1] Revenge like this is only possible because it's a world within a drama... Reality is that a majority of the victims just force themselves to live on with their wounds. Schools continue to shush everyone to upkeep their image so laws should be changed so that not only are the bully's parents responsible but the principal as well. We all should have fire lit behind our eyes in handling this issue so that these criminals are finally put behind bars and their parents can't act makjang about it.

7. [+39, -2] It's so good... I'll be waiting for the next season

8. [+37, -1] So this is the quality of drama that can be produced by a writer who has already produced high quality work under the restrictions of public broadcast channels but is now working without any rules on a platform like Netflix ㅎㅎ

9. [+27, -5] I'm not usually one to watch something just because everyone's talking about it or it has high viewer ratings but I randomly came upon a clip and was so shocked at how great everyone's acting was... I'm slowly becoming a fan of everyone from Song Hye Gyo to all of the supporting roles

10. [+6, -1] I'm suffering from the consequences of binge-watching it all in one go ㅎ if you haven't watched it yet, wait until March!
