The second half of this season contained more storyline than the entire franchise combined.

I won't consider this a great sequel to its predecessor, at least in terms of overall quality. The first half had no coherence and many scenes had bad tropes/stereotypes, while the second half of it had me taken. By episode 4, I found myself not wanting to watch further. Yet I saw it through till the end and I didn't regret it.

The acting was superb as always, by both the main leads and the supporting characters. The core story in this season was more mature than the first, and I was pleasantly surprised by the second half. Especially so after the disaster the first half was. As a result, it felt rushed. The direction and writing for this season could have been better too. Overall, I am not sure whether I'll re-watch this season, although the story is worth a mention! Besides, the music and cinematography were on point.

As long as you have some patience with dramas, I think it deserves a chance!
