I love how Koreans are stepping up their game with their unique new ideas in dramas

First of all I wanna say:I LOVED IT

I wanna start by talking about how the vibe and sets of the drama were bright and colorful but the story was dark and bloody, this made the drama more creepy and interesting and fun to watch I really liked this about the drama and I think this is what made it different from “Alice in borderland” which people said is similar to this drama
The story:
Well as I said in the headline I LOVE how Koreans are getting more and more creative with their dramas, not only in terms of story but also the camera work ,the sets, the fashion (and in this drama it’s not exactly fashion but the customs), anyways the plot is really good I don’t think I got bored any moment watching it, one of the things that I think about when watching a drama is what messages does it say, what did the writer want us to conclude from watching this and I think this drama has really great messages and experiences to learn from

The acting:
The acting is amazing every single actor did his role excellently, and since I didn’t see many people praising our ml gi hoon I wanna say he’s one of the main reasons that made this drama fun to watch his acting is natural he portrayed the character of a kind and a simple civilian so well and I could feel his emotions too, all the acting was brilliant but those who stood out to me were: firstly our sae byeok that got so much recognition because of her role and still I can’t believe that is her debut, secondly joon ho the police officer I think this is my first time seeing him acting but definitely he shined so much to the point where I am watching his other works now, and Ali’s character which is also most people’s favorite he was such a lovely add to the cast

Rewatch? I’m not a rewatch kind of person especially for a drama that definitely needs a season two, but for those who like to rewatch I think you’ll rewatch this since every episode has so much going on and so much details to realize and analyze, and also that at end of the drama your perspective will some kind of change so it’ll be fun to watch again with that new perspective

Overall I highly recommend to watch this, it’s definitely worth your time, it’s also only 9 episodes but still with a good experience and entertainment.. so give it a go!
