Yaa, it's like the original series. So if you don't like the Korean version, you might not like the original either
It means the korean remake is better! Because anything else than what I mentioned is alright. Directing, sets, colors, action, etc. And of course the idea of North-South.
I'm watching episode 2 and now it starts to be good, without too much problems. Of course I see weird things. The guys doesn't watch the prisonner, the director run away. Else I focus on scenes or scenes cut, some are excellent, when Tokyo finishes the sentence seen in a flashback for example.
I understand better why there are so many comments from disappointed people now that I've seen episode 1.
They wanted to put a lot of action from the beginning, but it doesn't really work. - Too quick introduction of the team, we don't get a sense of why and how they work together. - An "A-Team" type feeling with perfect operation, everything works without much surprise. - A very risky plan and yet they spend their time joking, laughing, making tons. I dislike that. I prefer heist movies with tension, suspense, people who take things seriously. - Here, no matter what happens, we don't care...
dramas do this sometimes, they end with a scene and thennat the beginning of next episode they start a bit before…
Yeah, I didn't remember it was the last ep3 scene. But it was weak as cliffhanger. Then it starts episode 4 on the morning. And here, I couldn't figure it was rather a flashback, more little scenes like that, then around 10 minutes, the recap of the cliff scene. But it was very long, and I couldn't figure out it was the classic "redo the cliff scene", as it don't reveal a lot. I've the feeling it's messed up here. It could be better to start ep4 with the following. But maybe the writer really wanted to tell the morning scene and/or there was not any other time to put that.
Thanks for this review. I never took the time to write one, even I watched this x12 and it was my favorite drama during 7 years until I watch W. You made it in the reverse order, lol!
They are the only two dramas I rate 10 because they have the extra plus about the concept, art, pace, density and originality + the mind-blowing logic.
I don’t understand this. Almost all stories are inspired by older stories. There are literally so many many…
It's more incredible than that. Civilizations without any contact had very similar myths. It's related to the human psyche (concepts of archetype and collective mind).
I thought I was sensitive but man you are a little bit too much. They know each other before she became his temporary…
Good luck with your watching. I just took notes about what is wobbly in others areas, because it's of good value about screenwriting as "errors not to do". I've dropped once at ep4, now I drop for good at ep6. The drama isn't enough good, but also isn't enough bad so I could enjoy to take more notes. ;-)
Episode 3, there is something I don't understand. Maybe a translation error? Can you explain?(see spoiler)
He finds the As heart ten on his forehead. So he's supposed to win the game. Then I don't understand about what they speak just after, before they fight (and I'm not sure why they fight too).
Should I watch this? Honestly I feel like want to watch this just because of Kang Ha Neul. Will add on to my drama…
Episode one has too much of confusing exposition. Then Episode 2 is ok and Episode 3 is very good. If you like gamble, there is Poker texas holdem, with an explanation of statistiques.
Agree, the story started pretty weak but ep 2 was good. Actually I watched it with a low speaker sound because…
Yes the song. Usually, I prefer BGM than OST in dramas, but here it's the opposite. The song at end of episode 1 is better than average drama songs. But I didn't find a MV yet.

It's not sure yet but we will have maybe a Liar Game rewatch party on this blog:

Interesting revelation from the CEO. I wonder what it means...
I think when we end episode 2, we want to see more for sure.
