Each character is incorporated into the story and each character' story covers different themes. The soundtrack for this series just blends with the scenes and story line. The acting is subtle, in the sense that there isn't an over reactive response to any scene; and the plot for each character is enticing. I've watched it multiple times and each time I'm drawn to each characters' story!
