A doable weekend sitting binge if you like survival shows.
If you like survival shows then you might enjoy this. It felt predictable and I definitely went in expecting this to be no different than Squid Game. The story doesn't really have a takeaway for the audience. I guess it doesn't need one since this theme of human greed and flaws is repeated in every survival show. I think the characters are pretty interesting to watch and what made me want to get through it. In reading the comments, everyone seems to have connected with a different character for different reasons which might make the show feel relatable to viewers. I thought the game rules were solid for the most part and easy to remember. It's not rewatchable though. I don't think survival shows have a lot of rewatch value unless there's a second season, then you'd rewatch to remember. It is bingeable if that's what you're in the mood for.Was this review helpful to you?
First J-Drama and enjoyed it. Slice of life is hard to execute well but it did it.
This was my first J-Drama and I wasn't expecting to like it but I binge watched it in a weekend. I love Slice of Life but it's a very hard genre to execute. They're quintessentially "plot-less" and so you have to work extra hard to make the story, situations, and characters believable and entertaining. Somehow they did it. I definitely think it's rewatchable if you wanted a slice of life drama with a "coming of age" theme for adult women. If you like the elements of friendship/camaraderie, careers, and romance thrown in too, it'll give you that. I got all the things I was looking for out of this drama.Was this review helpful to you?
