BRO, THIS SHOW... I CAN'T.
The concept is FIRE. Hero powers tied to money and losing cash whenever he uses them.. could’ve been HILARIOUS, absurd, and clever. But instead its grim, serious, NO LOGIC.
They literally erase their own rules whenever it’s convenient. Episode 3 could say one thing, episode 6 would say “nah forget that,” then episode 8 revives ep 3's logic?!
Episode 8 ends with the heroes “winning,” sang-ung and his wife get the apartment they wanted, happy music plays… and I can’t even enjoy it because everything leading there was straight bullshit!!
The detective is dumb, the wife is a liability, the "villains" keeps winning, and the pacing is all over the place. Scenes that should’ve been in the finale were smushed across episodes, NOTHING makes sense. Everything feels compacted and stretched at the same time, I feel like the show just threw spaghetti at the wall every episode and hoped we’d eat it.
Honestly, this could’ve been so much fun. Make it playful, and lean into the absurdity of cash-powered heroics. Make the protagonist a high schooler struggling to pay for his powers or face itchy red bumps. Could've Kept the wife out of the loop so we can enjoy the sneaky tension. Commit to rules! Just don’t erase your own universe? Boom! instant better show!!
Instead, we got this nonsense. I hate it... I feel like a loser for watching it, but also like… I needed to finish it to fully understand the madness. If anyone asks me, it’s a hot mess. BUT, I swear this is the kind of chaos that makes you feel alive, even if it’s infuriating.
