A New Favorite
it's currently 3 am and i just finished binge-watching all 14 episodes of this drama. it's definitely one of my favorite dramas now.the cast is absolutely stupendous. i have learned so much while watching (all the unspoken tension built by characters, the drive, and want, etc.) it's led me to see the buildup of characters in a new light and just how crucial it is to the structure of a story. the truth each actor lives as their character is eye-opening and entrancing. i was hooked from beginning to end.
the themes and overall topics the drama touches on is done in a way that is addictive and disturbingly realistic. i couldn't stop watching until the end and i still want more. however, it already is a compelling standalone story.
for, at its very core, 'Player' digs deep into the human psyche to examine just how far people will go to get what they want. and does so in both a raw and absolutely incredible manner.

I was prepared to give 9/10 or even more for this drama but the last episode especially made me shift because see, the important ingredient to an amazing drama is its conclusion. And this drama's conclusion was so fast, so rushed, and leaving so many questions unanswered. I sincerely hope they come back around for a second season only because I need to know more.
The acting was subpar. I absolutely loved Kim Seul Gi and Key's characters and I will miss the dose of joy it gave to see them on screen. I also am in awe of Lee Shi Young and Kim Young Kwang's acting were so fresh and raw. I have to especially give props to Park Solomon's acting because he had me absolutely appalled and despising his character from beginning to end.
So, bottom line is, I adored this show I was even considering it to be one of my faves, but its conclusion - which wasn't much of one - left me bewildered and wanting more.
