It was short, enjoyable, and balanced with a bit of dark comedy.

In my opinion, this drama is better than Secret Forest 1 and 2 in every aspect.

Yes, season 1 had a bigger plot, but this one was very enjoyable and straight to the point.

Secret Forest felt flat in character development in both seasons. However, this drama felt much better. We saw his development from seasons 1 and 2 to here, reflecting on his past while trying to grow and face the consequences of old mistakes in his own way.

The acting from the male leads was outstanding. I could easily watch 10 more episodes with the three of them performing together—they were incredibly enjoyable to watch. P.S. I know Hyun Bong-sik doesn’t get much credit in K-dramas, but I’ve always thought he’s a great actor who plays his roles perfectly.

In the end, this drama is the best in the series. I hope that if there’s a Secret Forest season 3 in the future, it will match the level of this drama and deliver better character development.
