SPOILERS I appreciate that they at least tried to make this story reasonable because very often kdramas seem to do mind boggling shit just to rile up emotions or keep the story going. However you cant overlook how easy it was to find out who was extending the time or how the overly kind woman for no reason becomes crazy enough to see hallucinations. Sleep deprivation torture is not very entertaining to watch either so the time should not have been extending. Also theres 0 character development

this was a series that had it all ... when it comes to games bundled with brutality and extravagance, the koreans know how to do it ... absolutely recommendable ..!!!!

This is billed as a comedy-drama, but there's little comedy in it overall. Maybe some of the surrealistic imagination/dream sequences you see from characters. But it's a -mostly- well done death-game (esque) psychological thriller. It's an effectively rigged game about making as much money as possible that plays upon people's class and social insecurities.

There's basically an infinite number (exaggeration but not for off) of this genre; whether they're books, movies, shows, manga, manwha, comics, or whatever. To stand out, the writing needs to be good and you can't make the characters exceptionally stupid just to drive the plot in the direction you want. Unfortunately, they failed at that and therefore the show fails.

Not bad, not great but a very interesting watch. It's a bit too explanatory at times but the concept and the how to story unraveled I found to be quite good. I never understood why they didn't buy things to finish the time but I guess, then we wouldn't have the second part of the story. Interesting concept and decent execution.

What did I just watch ? :D This is a mix of The platform and squid games. Start of really slow but keep watching, it will be worth your time.
