Cheese in the Trap
(2016 - Viki, 16 1:05 eps)

It was such an unusual journey. Maybe the 7.4 MDL rating is because it's not a comfortable show & the big messages aren't realized until the last eps. Many consider it a classic, probably because of the quality acting, & the unusual twist on a trope.

Not your typical rich chaebol with trauma falling for the poor girl: it is a rollercoaster of emotion. There are sweet friends, imperfect parents, a crazy sibling, a love triangle, & many side characters with difficult personality traits.

Both MLs get angry & act out, but in very different ways. One is much more socially acceptable, the other makes people very uncomfortable. The FL demonstrates that being with a person means accepting the good & the bad in yourself & them.

Now that I know the ending, my perception of the whole thing shifted.
