Disappointing Ending

Don't watch this unless you have too much time on your hands. (I tried not to include spoilers.)

Let's first talk about the whole game. The rule that ruined the show, I would say, was the new one where one of the money catchers could lie completely about their identity. This caused the contestants to quickly determine who that money catcher was-- early in the game-- and therefore, eliminated one of the more interesting couple storylines (Inseong and Jungwoo).

Secondly, I lowkey felt like everyone was a money catcher while watching. No single contestant gave me good vibes except Inseong and Jungwoo. If I hadn't hung onto the hope that Jungwoo would perhaps visit the house after he was eliminated, I wouldn't have continued watching. As for the love catcher reveal at the end, I predicted all of them-- and I'm glad I did because they stole my heart (after I got over Jungwoo).

As for the reaction panel, Jang Do Yeon is really the MVP. Her experiences with this series as well as hosting other shows definitely plays a part in the flow of this show in general. I'm actually pleasantly surprised by Miyeon and Sunny. Although they didn't pose as important roles as Jang Do Yeon during the show-- they made it much more enjoyable and light-hearted. I especially enjoyed Miyeon's dissection of the contestants; I feel like she had worthwhile insight. As for Son Ho Jun, I barely noticed his presence. This goes the same for Loco (except that one scene with his shirt-- which I think Jang Do Yeon helped him with in setting up the scene).
