I think I'm a masochist. The addiction that I have for melodramas and those heart-wrenching pain I felt, feeds to my wonderland (the imaginations of how being in love would feel). Previously, it was An Innocent Man. And I've rewatched the drama, a rare thing that I would do. And now Secret had me feeling the same urge to do so.
Secret revolves around a deep hatred which the male lead has for the female lead. His way of revenge is dark and psychotic, slowly torturing the subject, channelling all his guilt towards her at the same time. But as the story progresses, it'll be a situation where the two characters, worlds apart, will learn how to let go of their sadness, forgive the selfishness around them and appreciate each other. Mostly, it's the male lead who will see life in a new light as he plots revenge around the female lead but receives positive energy from her instead.
One who used to see no meaning in life and is vulnerable in face of setbacks, while the other is one who grabs at every opportunity that passes, sees the end point as another new beginning and smiles through adversity.
Hatred transcends into an obsession, and fascination evolves into love.
"Seeing her hurting, why do I hurt more?"
