Felt like two different shows almost. The beginning half and the second half were a bit disconnected. The second half especially the last two episodes were confusing. It was using a weird storytelling technique where it was just having the viewer guess at stuff instead of actually explain anything. I liked the initial premise and acting, although the English dub was a bit odd because the voices sounded disembodied.

If you want a quick watch where the story wraps up in one season, enjoy mysteries and stories where about eating the rich than this is definitely a good option. Could've been more stars if they had explained more and not rushed the end.

A fresh faced young girl works as a maid for a wealthy jewellery empire owners family, at a dinner for his birthday he announces he is formally marrying his personal maid.

His family are incensed at this then he mysteriously dies, the family shun his widow at the funeral and treat her so badly she retreats back to being a servant, after his will is read leaving her nothing this seems a shrewd move.

What follows is the horror of people with too much money and too little sense exploiting those with nothing.

As the untalented and unappetising family unravel, we take a malicious slice of schadenfreude with cream as things take a turn for the worse.

If you like The Glory Korean TV show you will love this, it's themes are universal, use the subtitles it's a blast.

I don't usually watch Thai dramas, but I saw a preview scene on Netflix and I thought "how interesting".

THE MAIN PROBLEM I had with this drama was the slowness of everything, not of the action in itself, but of the movement of everything. I had to watch this in 1.5× speed so I wouldn't die of boredom 'cause the pace doesn't do justice to the kinda nice plotline! It's not a work of a genius, but I think it would have worked better as a movie. There aren't a lot of important things that are happening and this drama focuses more on the mystery and the atmosphere.

Most of the acting was good and the storyline of the protagonist truly kept me interested, the actress embodied the character very well. But sometimes I couldn't feel the reality of the plot, so I found it chaotic at times.

Also, the music fitted the narrative plot, yet I couldn't stand the eerie and suspensful sound that was all over the episodes. I think they used it too much. I fell in love with the ending song of the finale episode.

Give it a try if you want, but don't expect much.

Started off with a mystery and the premise makes the viewer root for certain characters. The unravelling of the mystery was entertaining to watch because of all the plot twists.

The social injustice narrative became a bit too heavy with the sadistic abuse of the servants, and there never seemed to be any way out. The social injustice narrative became a bit too heavy with the sadistic abuse of the servants, and the tiresome part of it is the fact that there never seemed to be any way out. They all had to endure it because of the poverty back at home, and the seemingly high wages that "compensated" for the "back-breaking labour." In spite of that explanation, it's hard to believe that money is enough to motivate someone stay at this job when some of the abuse could maim them for life, making it difficult for them to continue earning any income at all.

The acting was quite convincing for the most part, for both sides of villains and protagonists. Thanavate Siriwattanagul, who plays Mawin, stood out for me. The characterization of the servants was quite one-dimensional for all of them, so one cannot say that they had much acting to sell to begin with.

Ending was satisfying, although a bit too fantastical.

A tale of a perverted family, insulated by wealth and privilege. Every single family member is sinister & exploits the servants that live on the estate. Add some incest as the sexy moment, keeping it in that family. Otherwise, it is humiliation, rape and abuse, beginning to end. Dark drama, not exciting. It will put you to sleep. Wake up from snoozing, more ugliness on the screen. Family members dislike each other, resulting in predictable schemes and infighting. Indescribably bad series that somehow got picked up by Netflix. Thankfully there are only 7 episodes with an odd twist at the end of this sub-standard work.

I was really looking forward to watch this series but OMG... I suffer from suspense and intense sounds and effects which is way way too much. In some scenes theres no need for those intense mood and the building up music is always there and its very annoying.

Im not sure whats the goal of the director here but most of the actings from all actors are "overreacting" but i try put up with it. Because i was hoping for it the get better.. unfortunately its not.

I could not get passed ep3 so please keep in mind that my rating and review are only for the first couple of episodes. Good luck and salute to those who can finished.

Disappointed :(

Wow that was soooo slow. The acting was terrible and the script was just awful. It felt so forced and fake. Each interaction felt like a real bad translation. The words kinda match their mouth, but then kinda didn't. There was no character development, and I don't really watch for that, but this was blatantly terrible that you could feel it. The twist at the end was not really even a twist. I have two stars because it could have been decently bad versus just terrible. If there's absolutely nothing else to watch on Netflix it would better for you to take a walk outside or just go to sleep. If you need help sleeping this will do the trick.

The universal theme of rich and poor is one that will always intrigue. However, to create intrigue, the plot needs intricacies, peppered with ambiguity, to keep the viewer on the edge of their seat and scrambling for the remote to 'skip intro'. This doesn't have a lot of that. In fact I found myself using the FF button on some episodes to stop the pain of some of the acting.

Then Episode 7 comes along. Beautifully filmed and creates the buzz I'd been waiting for throughout... they should have used some of this to create the intrigue needed in the first episode...

Overall, too obvious, some atrocious acting but enough to keep me watching. I'm glad it's over though... or is it?

The job market must be really bad to have to work in that house, so that they can then say that unions and workers' rights laws are useless.

The script and the performances make this series, unintentionally, one of the best comedies of the year.

The characters are so basic that they have to resort to illogical decision making in order to surprise you, they are totally flat, without nuances, the good ones are more stupid than good and the bad ones seem like beings from hell, this makes you not care what happens to them, you can't empathize with them.

Anyway, I think I'm spending more time writing this review than it took to write the script.

One and no more Netflix.
