After the first time I’ve watched it I cried for the first time in years. Idk, maybe it’s because I’ve watched the last episode drunk, but it totally shattered and almost traumatized me.

Now I’ve watched it the second time, and it shattered me again.

The acting is amazing, when you re-watch it you appreciate it even more - Fan Zhi Xin makes it obvious, that his character (ML) knows exactly what FL is doing. He suspects her all the time, but he loves her way too much to believe anyone, even himself. Whenever the thought “she’s playing me” comes to his mind, he scratches the scar on his eyebrow - that move was actually a really good idea to make us (the viewers) feel the eerie feeling of suspicion.

I also appreciate the duality of both leads characters and morality - the ML, who is a ruthless, sometimes cruel, but actually emotional, empathetic and loving man, and FL, who is supposedly righteous, but a by-the-book psychopath?

If you’ve seen it, what are your thoughts?
