I'm only halfway through so I can't judge yet! I thought the first 30% was slow, but plot starts moving (and bodycount starts rising) after that—I'm very into the aesthetic of the bodyguard character having lots of hidden knives—killing assassins, protecting her queen.
I liked Remembrance of Things Past a lot, especially for a story about migrant workers, adult friendships, and their families, but the first 2 eps are very heavy (suicide shown onscreen) And there's a bit of copaganda throughout the series that I was uncomfortable with. I also had problems with the timing of the subs in the first 3 eps, but I don't know if that was specifically a platform problem of not (I watched on MangoTV). But overall, a satisfying story with interesting women and realistic portrayals of struggles. And there's a cat!
