Overall

Now it may seem like I just put 10/10 for the hell of it but I genuinely believe that this drama is one of my favorites this year.

It was so well written and so well thought out, except for the part that’s making people think this show has no critical thinking skills. Everything else is well thought out. Like how in one of the earlier episode when people went on a hike to see what the limits were. There was a person with a camera recording and he saw people so they were all shouting trying to get their attention. But looking back at their footage they noticed how the birds and the people never moved even though the students were very much screaming for help. That scene should have made all of us realize that this was some sort of game game like a simulation. Which we find out in the very last episode in the final minutes.

As for the acting I loved Kim Wooseok as Joonhee he was very protective to Yoonseo played by Lee Jaein. I hate the fact that I’m the end the only sort of closure we got of that relationship was when Yoonseo confessed her feelings for Joonhee after she thought he died. I liked the dynamic of all of the characters and how the interacted together. Like the big guy with glasses how he felt genuine betrayal after his friend voted for him since he had a stab wound on his stomach. I loved how we almost got a redemption arc out of Kyunghon but was then thrown anyway in the very same episode. I also loved the fake that they got Jin Dabeom to be a sudden mafia. Like I was actually shocked when it turned out to be him. After he killed Kyunghon I instantly hated him I know Kyunghon bullied Dabeom but still I can hate him if I want to.

What I’m trying to say is that I love this drama very much. This is the very first time I’m writing a review for a drama and that’s mainly because I read some other peoples review and some of them forgot about the little part that should have been obvious that it was a simulation. But I guess that flew over everyone else’s heads.

I just really really hope that this drama gets a second season because I want to know what will happen since it seems like Yoonseo remembers what happened when she woke up in the real world. I also want to see however else’s dynamic is going to change now that there’s been a little change. I also want to see if there goings to be any interactions between Yoonseo and Joonhee. Anyway if you read this thanks for putting up with this and understanding.

I hope you all have a great day and have an amazing Christmas!!!
