So far so ok
This one requires your undivided attention. With the amount of dates, groups, and characters thrown at you from the start, you're playing catch-up. After two episodes, I'm still lost on a few things. The premise is interesting but lacks an emotional hook. It reminds me of the political thrillers of the early 2010s with its gray color scheme and its super serious tone. Hopefully, once I catch up to the story it's selling, I can attach more to it. Since Hulu released the first 5 episodes at the start, I'm more inclined to give this a few more episodes as opposed to if it was released weekly.Was this review helpful to you?
Very very dense
This will be a quick review as I'm struggling. I want really to like this show because it has a stellar cast. However, it is very very dense and needs your full attention. Even though my grasp of modern Korean history is so-so, it still didn't help me in this show.The first episode just drops you in and you don't really know what's happening and who everyone is. However, I can see the bones of a good story unfolding. One does need patience. I will update the review again at the end.
