Towards the end of their summer holiday, a group of high school students’ peaceful lives are disrupted. Someone named “Admin” adds them to a chat group and forces them to play a killing game. Before they find and remove “the target”, whose identity is unknown, anyone in the chat group who does not reply to other members’ messages will die instantly. Panic strikes as students in the class suddenly die one by one. Ho Hei Yin, a gentle and simple student, fights with “Admin” to protect his precious friends. In order for the class to survive, Yeung Yuet Ying vows to uncover the identity of “Admin”, even if it means putting herself in danger. A cynical Shek Hiu Yeung aims to save as many classmates as possible by locating and removing "the target” quickly. While the trio try to save others, some people show their true colours under pressure. One of them uses the game to kill others in order to win. Another one kills his friends brutally for revenge. One uses his friends as pawns in order to survive…The place where they should enjoy their youth is turned into a scene of carnage. Edit Translation

Unexpected

This is my first time writing a review. So this is based on my opinion.

The story was well-written, the acting was well-done. I can feel their feelings of hopelessness. At first I tought the men in black are the one responsible for the deadly game. before I knew who the "Admin" was, I make a lot of wild assumptions. I didn't expect that the students who were being bullied already died. I was thinking that he is probably the "Admin". At the end, I was surprised that the teacher was added to group. It is sad that only four out of 22 student that survive until the end. I didn't expect that the "Admin" was an Artificial Intelligence (AI) . It's crazy that the AI can kill a real person. BTW I'm still confused on how the "Admin" or the AI was able to kill them. I know that they will be killed if they don't follow the rules of the game. But they won't be killed as long as they were away from their phone. So, is the phone a murder weapon? And about the four "target" why are the bullies not included to the "target". The student wasted their friends because they thought the bullies are the target. Well, for me, this drama is worth watching. And I hope there will be more dramas like this.

Watching this Drama reminded me to Korean dramas such as Squid Game, Night Has Come, All Of Us Are Dead, and Duty After School. I really like survival type dramas.

low budget techo thriller

these kind of plot would only work if it took place in isolated place, or happened in limited timeframe (24/48H). it doesnt make sense to watch these kids, who watch half of their classmates heads blown off, just casually went to their home, hanging out, and back to school in the next day as if nothing happened


and the low production value just make the whole story not believable. they could'nt afford any extras to pose as other students, there are only one teacher throughout the series, the monitoring room are hilariously empty, the company lobby is just a terrrace, pc/laptops are always facing away from the camera, etc
