  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

Not as much of the fantasy story I expected it to be from the premise as much as it is statistics of generational, systematic misogyny in South Korea loosely framed over the story of a young woman’s life. But very good! Utterly hopeless.
