First decent makjang in years
Oh my god was this a nice surprise. Really did not expect anything at all, and am not a fan of AI, but I do appreciate that they put a warning before every episode recognizing that they do use it.Story: Classic makjang plot, BUT they also poke fun of the cliches and play up all the ridiculous elements in an enjoyable way.
Characters: Distinct and diverse, they're all kind of weird but it's believable. Plenty of comedic relief from the characters, even when it's supposed to be "tragic," so it doesn't feel like a drag sitting through scenes typical of all makjang dramas.
Acting: A cast of familiar faces. Pretty much all of them are veterans and good at what they do except for the male lead. So far no redeeming qualities from him, but that's expected, and I can just tune him out, thanks to the supporting characters doing the heavy lifting and keeping viewers from getting frustrated.
Really enjoying it so far, no idea how they'll drag it out for 120 episodes, maybe I'll come back and update this review once all episodes are out. What can I say? This show scratches the makjang itch.
