The Disappointing Factor
Rose Mansion also comes with points that can make the viewers feel a bit disappointed. The thriller elements were good, but many questions were left unanswered at the end of the series.

In-Depth Analysis
Rose Mansion is a very decent thriller when it comes to Korean Dramas. The acting and the execution of the plot are done very well. But there are moments when you feel like the story is being rushed. Also, the romance between the main leads may not excite everyone. But still, the story is intriguing enough to keep you going. The ending is sad yet satisfying. Leaving an open ending with so many unanswered questions may not be the best thing to have done for the drama. Some clues left for the audience in the show had no relevance when it came to an end. But at the same time, if there is a season 2, then there is more than enough reason for the audience to go ahead and watch it.
Star Power
The lead actors did a great job in executing their characters. The cast of this drama is not star-studded. Not many Korean drama viewers will recognise most of the cast. But these underrated actors, including the supporting characters, played their characters very well and fitted in the story.
Overall Opinion
If you are a thriller fanatic, you should not skip this drama. If you are a thriller drama expert, you might find many predictable scenes, but that shouldn’t stop you. This drama is a must-watch for people who love thrillers.
