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.

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.

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.

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.
