better than season 2 but ..

when you see the rating, comments, reviews its obvious that many people are angry, this series indeed has it own flaws thats for sure but i find it better than season 2 , there is entertainment , games and didnt feel like a filler season
its just my opinion but comparing this season to season 2 : season 2 felt like just a preparation for season 3 , what could have been better is if they combined both seasons in one season instead
now talking about season 3: * major spoilers*
what i didnt like: questionable behaviors, like im ok with a bit of super hero behaviors but saving a baby (that is not even related to you, nor you had spent huge time with him) over your own son? it felt so forced super herotic act, like why a lot of characters are either so all about sacrifices or fully evil, characters dont need to be fully good or fully bad and that there is no in btw,
and how easy it is to give birth in that place?
this season ended with nothing getting solved, Seong Gi Hu talked about revenge in season 2 but this whole season there is no fire no flame no revenge he was just trying to save the baby and then he decided to s**cide , could have been better if at least some criminals got caught for investigation, or made it in a way that he was able to live and to take care of his daughter and the new born baby and getting therapy with all that money, at least the ending would be satisfating, he said he is a bad father but he could try to make up for it , Hwang Jun Ho was looking for his brother but went back home like nothing happened, they killed most important characters so early in early eps too, also the vips are just... not it,
and they are hinting at an USA version?
what i liked: the games were okay and interesting, i liked some characters and stayed until the end to see what happen to every character, the first part of the show (early eps) are interesting and good, the other eps could have been better, flaws in the plot are obvious but its watchable

so gooddd

this is one of the shows that when i started it (part 1) i already think its good, but then it gets even better and better, part 3 is my favorite for many reasons
- we see more scenes of Eun Seom , i really love watching his scenes and his story
-the new addition Xabara, i love her character and her strong personality
- surprisingly i started liking Ta Gon in this part , he is supposed to be an antagonist but i cant see him this way, rather than evil he is just a very gray character, id say he is forced to be the way he is
i love that every character have some depth, Joong Ki did really good job acting as both Eun Seom and Sa Ya
acting and story both are good , i highly recommend

it was worth the hype that it got

the show is so good, very well done compared to many other netflix series. the plot is so full of mystery and creativity, while i know many people did guess about who the cop's brother is etc but there is also things that you cant guess, for exemple it was surprising about how in ep 2 they went back to their old life before going back again in the game that was not expected. the games were really entertaining and horrifying in the same time as its childhood games used like that

the whole hiarchy about the pink soldiers too is really cool, about how the circle ones are the workers, the triangle ones are the army and the square are the managers,then the front man then the host which is on top.there is also a lot of hidden signs in the serie that you cant find easily ,about how the old man is behind it all and how the games are on the wall and its really cool.
now lets talk about the cast, i dont think there is a better cast than this, the acting is really on top. ep 6? seriously you cant stop the tears, you find yourself so attached to the characters which is something you dont find in every serie. it shows you as well how humans behave when they are desperate so you see a lot of different behaviors from those who sacrifice themselves to those who trick others to survive and its true that every one deal with those situations differently depending on their mental health and their personality. the only thing to criticize here is the vips acting,its cringy and doesnt look realistic to me but again its a korean show so they probably werent aware of it, also if the vips are full of foreign people who dont all speak english fluenty then it could turn cringy, i just dont think that all of them are american.

the last thing i want to mention is the music, its so so goooooood, the "pink soldier" song is so addicting and there is other songs that are also so cool.
overall the show deserve the hype and you can feel that there is a lot of effort behind it im happy when people who worked so hard got what they deserved, for now i can only wish that season 2 dont be rushed, i want them to take their time and make a good plot i dont want it poorly done because season 1 really give high expectations

maybe its just me but i loved it so much

i will start first about things that i didnt like and then end this review with what i loved.
*there is going to be spoilers here*
first it was so short, i really wish it was longer while i understand that korean bls for now are short , the plot is way too much simple too so basically there is not much going on in the serie. the issue between the bestfriends was solved but it was not clearly shown how they come to terms with it, again i understand that was rushed by how short the bl is so yeah.

what i loved is the main characters, can i talk about the chemistry? omg , i was really trying to not fangirl and i watched the serie in 1 day and yeah while the eps are so short im still not someone who watch a show in one day so thats surprising to me,the chemistry is so good ,they look so good together ,Hae Won is so so pretty ,the music is so beautiful too i did download one song from there in my phone and listen to it from time to time. i really loved the vibe the show is giving too,its cute and light and the ending was also satisfying,i really want a season 2 where it could be longer and they could make a more developped plot. while most of time i dont really enjoy korean bls because they are short ,i did really like this the most

interesting

i had good time watching, the show has it own flaws but i do like the cast, the male leads have good chemistry and the plot is interesting,it does make sense that the show gives thai vibes as its produced by a thai company, while the actors are both korean and speak in korean language, im kind of thankful that we didnt have half of the cast speak in korean while the other half smh understand korean but reply in thai, when everyone is talking in the same language it feels more logical and watchable so there is no issue related to that here.
the good points:
an interesting plot, good chemistry, visually beautiful
flaws: one of the ml acting is a bit weak
overall id love to see the mls in more bls in the future

good vibes

this felt like a dating show and i love it. the main thing that i love is that it works out for both having friends and finding your match to act together in a bl but its also open to be more . you can feel that the cast genuinely care about each others too.
i like that Poom is a part of the hosts here and that they treated him nicely and warmly included him
i also loved seeing Max, him acting with few of the cast, it shows how good he is as an actor
plus the endgame is worth it too im happy for them, the last clip was good it shows that they can act and they have good chemistry. it will be cool if i can see them acting together in a bl, i hope that id see the others too having their own dramas.
