Prison life, questionable choices, and an ending that punches itself in the face ??
A Raw, Emotional Ride That Trips Over Its Own Finale
✨ THE GOOD:
Great cast chemistry — Jung Kyung-ho and pals make prison life feel oddly like a dysfunctional family reunion.
Humor & heart — Balances (sometimes) laughs with raw moments that hit deeper than a shiv in the back
(i said sometimes OK).
Unique tone — Not your usual prison drama; it’s quirky, weird, and surprisingly touching.
🤔 THE “WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?” MOMENTS:
Questionable decisions — Characters do dumb stuff that makes you scream “Why?!?” more than once.
Mixed messaging — At times it feels like the show can’t decide if it’s a comedy, a drama, or a social critique.
The ending — Leaves so many threads hanging you wonder if the writers just ghosted mid-script.
💔 THE “I WANTED TO LOVE THIS” FACTOR:
You’ll laugh, cry, and then question your life choices—sometimes all in one episode.
Great moments are overshadowed by the sloppy wrap-up.
🎯 VERDICT:
"Like a prison break plan that forgets to check if the gate is open—ambitious but ultimately frustrating."
Watch if: You want emotional rollercoaster with laughs and a little chaos.
Skip if: You need closure and consistent storytelling.
Best paired with: 🍺 A cold beer and a willingness to embrace the messy ride.
