The world is smaller than what we think.
As viewers, we are already given the impression that Ito is a rotten person, someone who enjoys playing with the lives of the women he interacted with. The fact that he was mentioned by four women who are having problems with their relationships doesn't actually give a good impression to me, because how horrible can he be for that to happen?! But as the stories of these four women were unveiled one by one, maybe Ito wasn't the only rotten person.
The characters were flawed in their own ways, and at the same time (to me), still very complex to simply understand. They aren't easy to like and have their own battles to attend to but unfortunately, were struggling and failing to face them. And to my own surprise, I actually think that maybe meeting Ito somehow helped them overcome their problems because I like to interpret that deep inside, they initially thought that they all have the same 'enemy' so they gathered their senses together and resolved their challenges along the way to 'defeat' him. So if I have the time (and as a Psychology student lol), re-watching and analyzing their characters in a more detailed way may be interesting.
The storytelling was also good because just like what was mentioned, this is like a puzzle that is gradually putting itself together in front of us. I also liked how the four women were given two episodes to focus on their stories so I was becoming more excited as the other characters were introduced. But to my dismay, the ending was really underwhelming. For me, the appropriate depiction of what I felt is this: it's like after meeting the characters, you have reached the peak of its interestingness so you glue your eyes closer to the television to wait for something to happen...until suddenly the screen just turned off.
I could've watched more and learn about Rio's background or see her face-off with Ito, so I'm hoping that I can count on its movie with that. The stories of these women who are interconnected with the same person made me realize that the world is indeed smaller than what we think. It's amazing how this drama also depicted that despite millions of people living at the same time, we can be connected with each other, may it be directly or indirectly.
