Tallina

oh woah, thanks for the reminder!!

but it also can't be 2 a week since it doesn't end until jan....

what's this new trend of 1 Episode per week?! ugh. I didn't check and started and now I will suffer for it 🥲

it seems like mom and dad are still going to fall in love with each other and it seems like Se Gyeong will fall for Eun Gyeol or have a crush on him before going back to her "planned" life? and I assume when Eun Gyeol goes back to the future, Se Gyeong's daughter will pretty much be the splitting image of her mother since they're both played by Seol In Ah. so, that might be his actual loveliness? lol kind of weird but.... meh. LOL so far, still enjoying the story. wishing the mom and son meet soon and she's able to have someone to sign to and understands her without just yelling at her to speak *cough* dad *cough* LOL

edit: I definitely missed the Se Gyeong is not Se Gyeong and it's her daughter in the past with Eun Gyeol part LMAO clearly un-observant or not paying full attention if that's the case.

darn that ruined that ship. didn't know she was married because yes, their chemistry was definitely there. haha seok Jin and his team's dynamic overall were super sweet.

well-deserved win! was the person I rooted for and honestly the only person that relied on themselves for every game. he joined alliances, but his own smarts and wits led to his win! congrats!!

also, that high low poker game really weeded out the weaker players. I almost wished they had done that earlier in the show instead of having so many games that you could win but having others support you. Dong Joo, Seok Jin and Orbit well deserved their top 3 status.

are these Google translated subs? it's like a guessing game while watching and reading LOL

I actually love this drama so far!! But I gotta admit, I was so confused when I started watching episode 3 as I didn't realize they were telling the story lines in parallel with each other. (I obviously didn't read the synopsis lol)

I'm so curious as to how his father lost his his hearing/voice and also what happened to the relationships with those around them. Choi Se Gyeong already told us that she went to study abroad so we know why she didn't keep in touch with them and I assume his father's grandma passed away. So, I guess all that's left would be his mother step family. But it seems like she never had a good relationship with them. So, yeah. I guess I'm curious as to how his father lost his hearing and voice.

I don't know why I can't edit my comments anymore. but I should also just say that as annoying as I find Orbit, the dude is smart. like him and Seok Jin are the people I think have the highest chances of winning if the rest of the games are solo challenges. the rest have all somehow relied on others to win. he also was clearly the best at the scales game when both Dong Joo and Seok Jin dropped the ball.

caught up to episode 9 and am loving it!! Can't wait for the rest of the episodes. I'm definitely with Seok Jin on this. it's a competition, so collaboration is expected but that doesn't mean you should try to save everyone. when you have a group of 8 against 4, that's just unfair. I mean, they were obviously threatened because the 4 person alliance was really strong. seok Jin, Guillaume, Dong Jae, and shi won were obviously all strong contenders. but the way they got eliminated was just undeserving. it wasn't even their skills that made them lose but because peer pressure for Dong Jae and then group mentality for Gulliame. aside from Seok Jin and Shi Won, I do like Dong Joo. she also understood that it was a competition and you can't just try to save everyone. there were times where I was annoyed busy her but overall, she's the best aside from the 2 from the original 4 alliance. Orbit is just annoying to me. if I was part of this game, I feel like at first I'd be okay with him leading or helping but after a round or 2 I'd find a new alliance because you can't help everyone in a competition. you will end up harming those you're trying to help (like seungkwan for yeon woo). and sorry, but yeon woo should've been eliminated awhile back as there just wasn't much contribution. there's a reason she was in prison twice already so as much as I felt bad, seok Jin made the logical choice. why would he risk sending yeon woo + someone else to jail if he could make it so he and shi won could go to prison and get to the hidden safe.

overall, rooting for Seok Jin. I don't even think he went overboard by eliminating Yeon Woo. they never had an alliance in the 1st place. he did use Joon Bin, but let's be real, the dude has had his fair moments of playing "dirty" or smack talking another player, so I'm not feeling sorry for anyone at this point.

excited for the finale ahhhhh

now on ep 26 and I can never get over how scorned women are so vile in Chinese dramas. like why are yalls so obsessed to a single man that does not love you and then when he wrongs you, you kill his wife, 30,000 soldiers that are collaterL as you try to kill his son. like......... I can't imagine killing the husband unless he was an abusive husband but this lady out here just killing everyone. another show also had the empress dowager kill thousands, I think Legend of Anle. it's crazy to me that in contrast to a smart, independent women they have to have this evil old lady as the villain.

and I knew the sister was suss. she was just way too nice

I'm on Episode 18 and it's pretty hilarious that the dad has so many daughters he doesn't even recognize her. LMAO yet her "mother" does. at least there's not evil parents in the show... yet, they're just silly. well, Lord Ding's "mother" is evil.

I rarely write reviews, but for this drama? I might as well add this, it's well deserved haha and yes!!! I know the romance isn't front and center for this show but I think they portray relationships overall really well. they connect everyone as family and friends and they're not all just crazy people fighting just to fight but they all have a reason to do what they're doing. also, I just realized that the 2nd teacher that was sent in was so useless. what was his point? lmao he was there to bother Teacher Choi, then died within seconds ☠️

HAHA he saved his boss's bus once and is set for life.

OHHHHHH. I knew she looked familiar but I really couldn't for the life of me remember who she was. I wonder if she has powers.

And yes!! I live for all the fight scenes. so honestly the beginning and end of the series was my favorite when Frank was hunting the ex-agents and then when our NK and SK fighters fought against each other.

edit: nvm, just scrolled further down and saw that she doesn't age! haha

don't worry, so did I. the sad thing is that neither side was the "bad" guy. they were all following orders. Kim Doo Sik did what he felt was merciful when he went on his mission and didn't try to kill all the NK soldiers while the NK soldiers weren't there to harm the kids and hesitated a lot even when they got in the way, except for the one that fought Kang Hoon LMAO that dude was going at it.

I honestly laughed when the 2 regeneration bros were just playing a game of war with each other's faces to see who gets knocked out first. I'm so glad they stuck with each other afterwards and that Huisoo was the one that bumped into him and comforted him after he lost his fellow friend and soldier. Neither the North or South agents wanted to kill one another. One side was following orders while the other side defended. So I found it hilarious when the dying North soldier questioned Mi Hyun on why she wanted to kill them all. Well, sir. You came to their country and threatened to kill them and they're worried for their children's lives. I honestly found it an interesting contrast in how Doo Sik and Mi Hyun handles fighting. Doo Sik tried to give them all mercy while Mi Hyun went for headshots.

Lmao also, while Kanghoon was getting beat up, I was just yelling for Daddy Kanghoon to get there already and he did NOT disappoint. Mans beat the shit out of everyone and then hobbled on out of there with his son in tow. All the while he left Juwon just dangling LOL

and bro, justice for Kim Doo Sik and Jo In Sung. He was there for a good minute and whelp, that was it. lol glad to see he was alive and reunited with his family though.

I feel like I missed something. Was the lady at the end that Kanghoon ran into at the agency and superior to Commisioner Min Yong Jun someone we saw before?

And it's sweet that the ahjumma and her son at the meat shop are so close with Mi Hyun. We saw how Mi Hyun struggled at the beginning so its nice to see that they kept that friendship alive all the way through.

Overall, I would LOVE a season 2 with more Kim Doo Sik, the return of the dude with the time stop super powers, and see everyone meet up again. This time Juwon and Mi Hyun met, but they fought separate battles until the end. Hoping they reunite Doo Sik and Juwon too! Their kids are already close friends ☺️ and I wonder how this is all gonna work with Kanghoon working for the NIS. Obviously, the new commissioner Ma Sung Goo is an ahole, so I wonder how things will go. Hoping to see Se Eun return too, revenge for her mom since Frank is alive and well and now the US is calling in Elias.

A special mention to Gi Soo and future reporter girls trauma bonding. haha it was sweet that he stayed and comforted her through that whole situation. Lastly, Daddy Juwon did not play around. Bye bye Mr. Mouse/Lizard man. No more tracking our super powered families 🙃

BUT if they chose to end it here. I also wouldn't be mad. why ruin a good thing? there's gonna be big expectations if they decide to run a sequel so I hope they execute it well.

honestly, I usually don't care for the GZS comedic breaks but lolol I do love the GZSxGYZ and SQxGYZ scenes. they're not overly comedic but adds just enough humor and sarcasm that it's fun to watch.

I really need a season 2 now. people really ended up guessing some of the twists: YWS having a twin, the Gong cousins working together and not actually at each other's throats 24/7, and something else was right, but I forgot lol

I'm surprised or slightly confused, I know YWS saw her crow/raven as a brother figure but what about SQ and hers? in his dying scene, it just felt a little more but at the same time not. And wait, does she or does she not like GSJ, cause if she really didn't, girl is a great actress lolol and you know she's truly psycho when she says everything with a smile on her face. I also really felt bad for Hanya Si, he raised both the Yun girls pretty much and couldn't offer them a better life and was truly sad to see them harmed. I was also sad about last wuji. she was such a good character only to be destroyed by her own foster/adoptive son because he crazy lol

loved seeing the cousins all working together these last few episodes. it was really nice to watch and even before the explanation, I loved seeing all the back Hill family members side with the sword wielder and YWS, even though they knew she was wufeng.

I need answers. is SQ really pregnant? omg, their baby would be so cute lmao who really is the wufeng leader? idk why I kept thinking it was probably a female from the Feng backhill clan. but what happened that made her become their enemy. what happened to YWS at the end? I hope GZY doesn't believe that she left him for freedom. don't the back Hill boys need a bride too? like where are these younger generations spawning from when I didn't see s single female character in the back hills. 🤔

the cousins now all smiling at each other is so sweet. love it!

who knew psychopathic tendencies were hereditary 😳 jkjk but the mom and son duo are pretty crazy. like imagine if they were both killers. the mom just seems like she doesn't care as long as it doesn't affect her career and she can cover it up. they're actually such a cute psycho duo LMAO and I love how he gets caught killing so he gives his mom a "gift" as an apology instead. can't wait to see how they utilize the Killing Vote for their own agenda

I normally come after watching the latest episode but today's episode hasn't been uploaded to my watching site yet 😮‍💨 so I came to see if there was a delay, but nope, people definitely have seen it LMAO and I don't think there's any big spoilers possible since it's an original storyline, right? all the trailer stuff I take as theories since no ones 100% sure and just speculating. and your PFP tho 😏
