Give it a chance

I must confess that I was a little bored watching the first two episodes. It felt as if the runtime was too long and I wasn't just thinking to myself "this could have easily be shown in 30 minutes"... But from there, suddenly the almost 1 hour felt like 30 minutes and I just wanted more and more. You have to watch it!The story is very interesting, despite having some plotholes. They ended up not going anywhere with the organ trafficking arc. I was a bit confused but I quickly forgot about it when watching the rest of the drama. I have a few questions concerning the logic of the Squid Game, logistics and all that I can't just write down here as to not to spoil the experience for those wanting to watch the show. Numbers 101 and 212 will forever be on my heart ?

The execution could have been better

My reaction
- The first 8 episodes felt like filler episodes
- In the first half of the drama I could see when Bong Sun was possessed... the actress made it really believable. But then for some reason in the second half I couldn't distinguish between her and the ghost. I think they should have put flashes of Soon Ae whenever Bong Sun was possesssed so we could know for sure who's who.
- I know it's part of tge culture, but I hated evey time the sous chef or the chef would hit their coworkers.
- Bong Sun was sooooo annoying in the first episodes. I couldn't stand her. You can be shy and still act like an adult.
- Bong Sun's back story could have been more addressed.

The best first episodes I have ever seen in a Kdrama.... from there it's BS

I've come to a point where I've watched so many dramas and seen so much that I have no time to waste with stupid plots
Tell me about a slow paced drama... the drama is sooooo so that 1 hr feels like a marathon. I was literally exhausted just for trying to make some sense of what I was seeing. The story makes no sense. The characters are unlikable (specially the female lead's younger brother, her boss, Kim Sa Ram and his deity friend) , but the acting is quite solid. And what's up with that cigarrete... are you gonna smoke or not?
I know that it's just another stupid drama and I won't give it my energy. If I was still 13, this would have been the drama for me. But no time for BS anymore.

Incest

I had to drop this drama. From episode 11 I came to understand that there was going to be a love triangle between three people who grew up as siblings. That feels totally wrong to me. The first 10 episodes were very interesting and I had never seen a drama like that before. It feels like a familiar everyday life. From the moment they grew up, their lives becamr boring. And why are the brothers trying to hide from Jiang Jian? Wtf I can't imagine my brother leaving for a few years and suddenly we falling in love like that. Disguting. People who see this as the best love story to ever exist need a brain check.
