The first episode was so great! I am glad Yoo Yeon Seok finally chose a good script. I think he's underrated coz he doesn't choose good projects. I have loved Chae Soo Bin since I Am Not A Robot. I think that's her greatest drama I have ever watched of her. She's a great actor. Also, is it me or does she seem skinnier in this show? Whats up with korean idols and actors/actress with getting skinnier. Is it a beauty standard? I somehow get worried if I see someone so skinny to an extend they look like bones. I often wonder are they healthy? Anyway its just my perspective. I respect everyone else's.
Dex is still the most enjoyable character here. His leadership skills and selflessness >>>>> I actually liked…
He isn't given a lot dialogue and I get it, you can't speak a lot in front of your seniors. Almost everyone has been in the showbiz longer than him (That's what makes anyone a senior and not even the age here). So I found him a bit quiet in most scenes even though the post credit lists him a second lead only short to Lee Si Young, which is deserved. But in the action scenes its where he shines the most. And I honestly agree it would have been dull without him. I knew DEX when he appeared in Love and Joy and had 52K IG following. I didn't recognize him in Singles Inferno immediately until the show was almost over. So, him making it this big is already a surprise for me. When I see him, I think who could have thought. Coz at the time I didn't see any outstanding talent like singing or dancing that could get him noticed. He surely has come a long way to even have a fanbase of his own.
I enjoyed it. I thought it was funny. There are some people comparing it with season 1, which I didn't watch. But I found this one enjoyable. I think most people will be disappointed because they expected it to make sense. I didn't have that logic going to watch it, I just wanted to watch Lee Si Young and Dex. If you watch for your favorite celebrity you won't feel its a drag. Also, I just thought it as a make believe. Like you can remember how we did it when we were kids. It was all about having fun and not how much sense the game we played made. Its the same case with this show, its nothing serious. No message to communicate or even to inspire. Its just a show to see your bias in a made up scenario and how they react. You could even see them laugh and make sneering comments when someone died. Like when one of survivors died, Defconn said "Well, she did say she missed her sister. That's something positive to look at" Eun Bin couldn't even hide her laughter. When Hong Chul died, it was supposed to be a serious moment, but they didn't hesitate to poke fun saying what kind of a dead person moves his mouth maybe we should stab him to let all the air out of him, LOL. I almost expected Hong Chul to wake up just to laugh at that joke but he had to stick to his role. When Andre was snoring even though he was supposed to be a zombie and passed out, they couldn't hide their laughter. I mean these are bloopers for a perfectly filmed show. But we got all of them raw. And as much as the show is 70% scripted, you can tell about 30% is their raw and unedited version. I loved it so much. It was something light and funny, I can't give it a 10/10 but 8/10 seems like well deserved coz I enjoyed it.
Maybe it's just my mental state but I find this boring as hell. The acting seems bad?? or maybe it's the lack…
I went through your list of shows you watch. And I think you have a specific genre that would make you not like this one. Its just your preference is different, that's all. Nothing about the acting, chemistry or the script.
Oh, 4 years, you're still a baby, LOL. I have 16 years. Anyway, I didn't know it that's why I asked the question before I started watching. I was reading through the comments and people are loving it but the rating doesn't match the hype. But opinions are subjective. You don't think it deserves more and its completely understandable. Personally, now I am in the 4th episode and I think it deserves more. I don't know maybe let's keep watching until I am halfway then I can give a better feedback on it.
Well, then you must be new here. But based on MDL ratings anything below 8 isn't considered popular. However, the hype around this drama suggest it should be one of the popular dramas this year. And the ratings doesn't seem to agree here.
I came here expecting some negative comments but to my surprise people actually liked it. Yi Kyung influence is too strong. People love whatever he's in.
