Now this drama broke me to pieces I don’t wanna spoil how but it literally scarred me. Such a well written and plotted drama. There's not so much to the cinematography and OSTs. The plot and storyline are literally the ones that carry the whole drama.

It is mystery, adultery themed with a touch of social issues addressing workplace misogyny and oppression of media also freedom of speech. I thank god for not making me watch the drama ongoing. Cause I would definitely lose my mind every week for cracking my head trying to solve the mystery.  And for just being frustrated due to the cliffhangers at the end of each episode. 

Now let's talk about the female lead. Go Hyeran (Kim Namjoo), flawed but confident woman. She had a bitter past but she knows what she wants to achieve in life. She wants to fly as high as she can.  I love it when someone asks her where is the highest place she can go, she'd say "I don’t know, never been there" like I wish I can be as cool her. My fav line of her would be "In my lifetime, I’ve been in situations like this several times.  Situations where I can’t go any further or back down. In those situations, I have never run or avoided them. I always face them head-on. Either I break or you break. Also, I have never lost, not even once." Right at that moment I fell in love with her character. Go Hyeran was not supposed to be a lovable character. Arrogant, snobbish, does whatever she wants and thinks that she's the only person who's right. But there's no way you can hate her for being confident, fighting against all these men trying to bring her down, standing up for herself and only stating the truth. Go Hyeran is a flawed character and that what makes her flawless. Go Hyeran is the reason why you should watch the drama.

The male lead, Kang Taewook (Ji Jinhee) - Go Hyeran's husband is portrayed to be smart, intelligent, handsome, comes from an amazing family background and a loving husband. At first he was perfect but at the end he was the most flawed. I think that is the charm of Misty. It reminds you that nobody is perfect. Even if the person seems like it.

The other characters add so much flavour to the drama. Kevin Lee (Go Joon), Seo Eunju (Jeon Hyejin), detective Kang Kijoon (Ahn Naesang) is plain annoying but necessary. Han Jiwon's (Jin Kijoo) character development makes me so proud of her. Reporter Kwak (Goo Jasung) is so cute I love him. All these characters help building up the story.

All in all, Misty is an amazing drama and a must watch. If you guys loke Sky Castle and The World of Married, then this should suit your cup of tea. 8.5 for the great storyline and amazing cast line up with impactful acting. I loved it. Lastly, stan Kim Namjoo and Ji Jinhee for good health. Happy binge watching!
