with each episode progressing, you're on the edge of your seat for sure~

You can always blindly trust Kim Taeri.

The drama was well-written, with every plot-twists in mind that would come out as surprising but explained well. The horror was spine-chillingly beautiful, the cinematography, the timeline from past to present was done well, and acting of each characters, main and support were superb.

The main story plotline was perfect but the side story of all those ghosts were heartbreaking. Just tells us, not every ghost is a vengeful ones. They were humans once just like us who just wants to protect their loved ones as their final wish. You will feel scared, anger, fear, sad all the emotions in one go as the story progresses, especially knowing a child was sacrificed by those rich adults who wanted nothing but had greed for more money. The child actress as we've seen from her other projects is such a talented one, she will become one of the best actress of her generation someday.

The past story of the ghost and how she was used by the rich depicts the true story of how rich would do anything and abuses the poor people in real life was mind-numbingly heart-wrenching and yet I felt even hatred towards the ghost for betraying her own family especially her own sister.

Everything about the plot was done fantastically and even if there was something missing, the acting of these actors covered it all.

Kim Taeri should be getting daesang for this acting role. Ku Sangyoung/the devil, her portrayal of a vengeful spirit with so much hatred towards people was perfectly brought to the screen from the pages. From being just a child who wanted nothing but affection from others, the feeling of loneliness, then to such spiteful spirit she did so well. Not only her body language, even her eyes will be acting at the same time.

You should definitely watch the show if you love Kim Taeri and love horror genre. It's one of the memorable story that will make you want to re-watch as soon as you're done watching it the first time.

Watch it to see the 'friendship' bond of a mother and her daughter.

This drama was good.

First part of the story revolved around how Kim Jinhee and her mom lived throughout her childhood as a single parent and a daughter who learned to keep herself out of her mother's dating life. I loved the way how they were more like friends than mother and daughter, I adored their relationship.

But as soon as the Jinhee's biological father came into the picture, it went downhill for me, the bond that I adored so much. Jinhee particularly said hurtfully that she didn't want to become a burden to her mother's lovelife, she kept it to herself as a child so that her mother could still date peacefully without her being an 'interruption' and nuisance, and yet, her mother was annoyingly insensitive towards her own daughter's feelings, her insecurity, and continued to bring her current boyfriend over and over, trying to force her relationship to Jinhee.

The unique plot for this drama, that makes it so different from other dramas is that, it focused not only on the hardship of a single parent, but also to the hardship of the child in the society. Her fear of being abandoned by her parent, the helplessness towards being a burden to their parent's life.

Later in the series, at least she acknowledged that Jinhee is only her daughter, and didn't make Jinhee to accept her boyfriend as her father. The way she fought with her grandparents for her daughter's freedom and wishes. I loved it all. This mother and daughter duo could fight blood for each other and I loved it.

And the ending, it was just lovely. Watch it for a light-hearted drama, if you're looking for one.

If you love intensity, gore dramas and enjoy the thrill ride then go for this series!

I disliked one thing in this show!

Niragi. Simple! That guy just never changes~

I loved the aspect of the characters of this season, how even the gamers also has human feelings and emotions. How they cared for justice and their friends? All they wanted was freedom and that place was the only place where they really could be free.

The dialogues were touching. For example Kayuma in the last scene "I hope you figure it out. How to live by your own rules. Your life is yours. Don't follow someone else's path." and how this implies to us in real life as well. The characters were loveable even the gamers who planned out all the games. The back story for each of the characters minor or main was just cherry on the top. It wasn't used as a filler chapter but led to build the character's personality and development into the story.

My favorite episode throughout the show would be Jack of Hearts, the game the manipulation the intellect used to figure out who's the mastermind played out so cool and Chishiya throughout the whole show was my favorite. Like boy was so smart, always learning the other challengers' behavior and their attitude and also how his instinct was mostly right during the game.

Loved it how the women in this show were such badass and brave those girlies who truly knew how to kick some asses while also helping in clearing out the stages of the games. This time women ruled. Man! Those girls are superheroes. Always love female archers.

That King of Spades was so ruthless and was he immortal? Got hit by a car, exploded and was on fire.... standing! Hit by arrow... nothing! The gunfires towards him... dodged 'em all. Stabbed by knives numerous times... didn't even shed blood. lol~

Ep 7 was the most saddest! "If we meet again... promise me we'll be friends."

And the final twist was superbly done... Loved the fireworks~

A must watch!

I binge watched this drama in just 3 days and it was that good.

The whole premise was already interesting to me since I love time traveling related stuffs especially to the past of course.

The whole serial killer plotline to family struggles and misunderstanding everything was pure emotional. Even though I kinda guessed all the suspense early in the stage as soon as the murderer was introduced to the story and everything else included, the plot played out so well that i was jutted in my seat to see how the story unfolds.

The writer did an amazing job for the flow of the story and the casts were perfect. The family members from past to present looked like they were family visually as well as their acting was nice.

I loved how the relationships of the parents and daughter, grandfather and grandson everything played out so well including the romance. It wasn't 'outofnowhere i fell in love with u at first sight' kind of drama but it was deep. The most I adored was how Yoon Young and her father's relation sorted out and how she understood his own share of struggle that made him the way he is in the present.

The drama's message too could be comprehended on own's perspective. But for me it was on a positive note, no matter how much we struggle now, we can always change our future by doing the work on our present. Everything we do now we will get the result in our future good/bad.

You should definitely watch this drama if you want thriller, romance, comedy and friendship all in one place.

Don't fuckin watch this mind numbingly stupid romanticizing nazi character drama.

worst drama!

The writer literally lost her direction on the plot after ep 3. I get it that it's all fiction but at least make a hostage situation realistic. Captors letting go of the characters who broke their rules for numerous time, when they would have been shot to death in one go for even moving an inch in a realistic situation. They truly made a hostage situation a comedic situation through this drama. How can you still fcking love a man who put a gun against your head? Falling for a guy who is a terrorist? Romanticizing the captor and literally a figure like nazi? I mean I would have considered the "romance" in this drama but the two leads barely spent a quality time together that would have led a Romeo And Juliet like tale. No chemistry was shown at all through the story. The stupid romance plot was nothing but forced into the viewers' faces with no chemistry between the leads. One day the fl is beating the ml and cursing him for her brother's death and the next day she's kissing the ml who i remind you is a terrorist. Moreover, it looked like the fl was the only one falling for the ml since the beginning. The ml only wanted to return to his home country to his sister who was waiting for him on the other side without showing us he truly felt for the fl. Everything about the romance was only told but never shown.

Then we have dumb female lead who does nothing but create more problems and always wants to bandage people's wounds which is never a problem to the captors. The captors tell her to stay put, but she never listens and does her own will and the captors literally stays put without any action towards the fl. Like really? They give one warning , then says "it's the final warning" and it repeats till the final episode. I haven't seen 1 single hostage situation where captors are that forgiving and so kind. This whole drama is just dumb and has 0 level of intellect.

Oh and the politics? We all know by reading few articles about the ANSP at the time were dangerous, cruel just bloody. But this drama shows us the ANSP people and other politicians are nothing but clowns. Big fat dumbasses who does nothing but fight amongst themselves like toddlers. Childish i must say. Just save yourselves 17 hours of your precious time and skip this whole ass stupid drama and protect yourselves from losing brain.

Also, the revealing of the "suspense" was so rushed lol. I've never seen a useless suspense reveal as boring as this one. Everything happened in 1 go with no major direction or goal. I laughed out loud when The chef of the hostel and that caretaker of the dormitory was revealed to be the spy of Nk. Like seriously, all they were doing was sit in the corner and starting tantrum like a kid here and there. This whole hostage situation could have ended in few episodes but it continued till mid of episode 16. Or the whole hostage situation could have just started in episode 12 or something while building up characters' personality, romance development between the lead characters (even the supporting characters) and giving backgrounds for the existing characters , their past, rather than haphazardly heaping all these important stuffs in the end of the story.

Ps how i wished it was the fl who died instead of the ml cause of her stupidity and annoying fucked up crying scenes that started from ep 4 and continued till ep 16 final scene and she does nothing but just THAT throughout the whole drama.

Should have gotten worst drama of 2021/22 award! Deserved~

A must watch with an open ending

Does this drama has its own shortcomings? Yes, definitely. The reason was it's broadcasting station.

However, this drama was something new, which is purely dominated by male leads, romance and lovestories. Jeongnyeon brought us women centric drama that comes to us once in a blue moon. This show was such a breath of fresh air.

Few of the main leads definitely had a very unsettling kinda ending and it was rushed like Juran, Hyerang and Okyeong's stories.

I was definitely wishing to see our prince, Okyeong for the last time but her appearance abruptly ended after episode 10 without a proper closure to her character.

If Hyerang had a short backstory as to why she is so obsessed with Okyeong and all maybe many of us wouldn't have had detested her like how we do right now. Her story lacked sympathy from the viewers cause we couldn't connect with her at all. With no proper reason, she was acting like b****.

Juran's story was cutoff as well. But at least she had a better ending than those 2. It was sad though, that her dreams was completely brushed off by her mother so her other child could survive, killing off the happiness of her other child.

Jeonyeon was such a character that you would feel for her. Kim Taeri did an amazing job by bringing the character from the page to a breathing, living person for us to connect with. Her dreams became our dreams, her passion became ours, her pain and sufferings became ours and her tears and happiness became ours. Even with her broken voice, her passion to become something never died. Her voice got taken away by someone's greed, but that severe jealousy couldn't take away one thing that made her who she was and that was her passion and courage.

Yeongseo was my favorite in this whole drama who never chose a path where she could have easily chosen just to be no. 1. She was always the right minded person, no matter she won or lost. It was always righteous choice and her hard work. Without JeongNyeon we know Yeongseo wouldn't have enjoyed gukgeuk as much as she did as the story progressed. She was only driven by her want to be seen by her mother, to be acknowledged by her star mother at least once in her life. That became her motivation to be a gukgeuk star. But once JeongNyeon appeared in her life, she started loving the stage, enjoyed the performance, put her everything into her acts and that's how she started appreciating her one and only rival, realizing her dream. Those two pushed each other to become better than yesterday and still will always make each other a better self for the future. That's what a real rivalry looks like, without any dirty tricks.

Ran Miran a veteran actress. No one can actually top her in this segment. Especially her outbreak when her students started to leave Maeran. She showed how broken the director was. Ran Miran portrayed this strict woman who held her students dearly as her pride, but would never stand any nonsense. With everything going on towards the end her only worry was what would her girls, the students would do if something happened to Maeran, where would they go. Ran Miran literally showed the director's dilemma of where to ask for help, being a helpless girl who was completely lost, who has no idea who to trust anymore, not knowing what to do when everything around her was crumbling down, the helplessness she felt when the most trusted people around her betrayed her and left her with nothing but just pile of debts.

Also how can we forget our new princess in the last act. When Park Chorok started singing. Damn that was too sad. It brought tears to my eyes. Her acting was sentimental, the shake in her voice...

All the actors involved in this drama gave their all and that was a perfect performance even with a lacking script.any of them deserve daesang this year for exceeding the expectation and their acting journey. Hope all the casts, directors and production team gets their deserved rest cause definitely preparing and going through the filming wouldn't have been an easy job.

It was such a nice, memorable ride. Another brilliant performance and an engaging script chosen by Kim Taeri.
