This is a well written, tightly plotted thriller. There was excellent set up and pay off, resulting in good plot twists. Occasionally they would somewhat lead you to believe something false, which I thought was… a little annoying tbh (like oh noooo this character got hurt! Oh wait, no, they’re fine). Nor did I 100% buy into the psychology in this show (it’s a little too ~magic~ for me, with hypnosis and hallucinations) but I do think that the scenarios the kids were forced into were compelling. You really get to know these characters and it’s interesting seeing them think and react to what’s happening. The show has a strong plot and focuses on that, and I feel like the psychological aspect is just the coating on top. I also appreciate that romance wasn’t really a part of the plot. The acting is good overall, I think Esom, Hong Jong Hyun and Kim Woo Bin stood out the most from the young cast. The main antagonist is good as well; idk I feel like I’m spoiled from having watched so many crime/thriller shows so I didn’t find him that scary (plus the whole psychology ~magic~ stuff). I *really* liked the ending and I thought the show did an excellent job of having the plot running up until the last minute. This is definitely a good, short watch, with a great plot that will keep you hooked until the end.
