no time for dramas nowadays :(
Run for your life, run for the money
What an hidden gem!!!
If you're looking for a really quick and fun watch then I'd HIGHLY recommend this. It's one of the most thrilling and entertaining competition shows I've seen in a while. I already rewatched it and I almost never rewatch anything.
The main "plot" is a group of 30 celebrity contestants who must outrun the Hunters, which are "androids" sent to tag them. Each passing second adds more yen to the total. Once you're tagged, you lose your chance at earning any money. Eventually various challenges are set up.
I really really loved the challenges and the dynamics between the contestants. I wasn't familiar with most of them, but they all brought their own charm to it (even the not so nice ones). I adore Marin Honda now. The challenges were all intense and creative. These brought about a more psychological approach to such a physical game. Adding in aspects like betrayal, teamwork, strength, and endurance. There's certainly a level of strategy and tact to this game as well.
The show was very tense. On my rewatch, I watched with my sister. She barely watches Asian media, but she kept screaming at the TV for them to run away. I've actually never seen her so into a show like that. Being chased by someone is already terrifying in of itself. But being chased by the Hunters??? That's an entirely different story. I just know that I would never survive with a dressed up man barreling full speed towards me. TERRIFYING.
But yeah, would highly recommend anyone in need of an exciting, quick weekend watch. I'd suggest watching with someone else too because it's just so fun to scream with someone else. Also if you're wondering: Minho is fantastic in this. I'm sure many are interested in this because of him and you will NOT be disappointed.
