This couple’s relationship was so healthy I had to give it a 10/10, any imperfection in comparison felt insignificant to me. Here I am, already crowning them as the best couple of 2026.
oe good first show, i am wondering how they are going to box without any injurings.
worried about that too, will be a bit hard for me to watch if they do get hurt 😔 guess I’ll take the wait for more episodes first approach and gather some feedbacks bout the show. will definitely watch since I enjoyed season 1 tho
Pretty damn good I must say. Just needed a bit more chemistry and spark between the main couple. But even so, this one’s definitely gonna stay with me.
Kim Da-mi & Son Suk-ku’s appearance in Whenever Possible Season 3 (Ep 4) brought me here. So this good shit or not? (no spoilers pls) prob gonna watch it either way but just want to manage my expectations a bit through you guys
ngl for its content, this show lowkey has too many episodes, especially more so with the current trend of drama having fewer than 12 episodes nowadays.
10-episode drama, and they still made room for the ex to show up in more than one episode?! Not a big deal, but he better be a damn good catalyst for some rewarding moments for our main couple and not just an annoying insert to simply make the ML jealous.
I just finished episode 1, wtf this is actually so good? First time this year im calling a show underrated. Please let the rest of the of the episodes hit too 🙏🙏
the one who was the coward in the devil's plan was hyunjoon
idk bout that, he wasn’t in the same team as sedol so its not exactly a betrayal. As for the 7high part, either he or 7high had to be dropped at that point for him to be the top 3 since sohee and hyun-gyu were guaranteed safe. so his choice was understandable, even if its ugly, or even painful to watch. felt bad for 7high, but 7high also understood perfectly how desperate hyunjoon wanted to survive/win, and it’s all part of the game to use any means. And honestly I’d rather have such raw uglyness desperate-cy than having to see a player going out like kyuhyun
Episodes 2, 4, 10, 11 have post-credits scene btw.Thoughts about the show below:
I think this is the first time my opinion of someone (or two) shifted so drastically and quickly in the span of one episode (Ep 10). Such a pity, since So-hee & Kyuhyun started off as some of the more likeable players who I was genuinely rooting for. Absolutely disappointed.
The finals might honestly be one of the biggest throws I’ve ever seen in a survival game show. And I use the word “throw” loosely here, because So-hee was actually in the winning position in all 3 games. She played better, had the advantage, and still managed to lose those towards the end, ridiculously and frustratingly. Nothing against Hyun-gyu, since he honestly played decently well throughout (8x8 Knight’s Tour in 3D space isn’t easy), and sure, he earned the win. But the win was in no way convincing and rewarding enough for us viewers. I’d like to imagine that if So-hee had continued with the stalemate, the production team would have given her the chance to answer first, since she had more pieces after all (yes, pieces became completely irrelevant in the finals, tho I understand the point of having a pure capability 1 vs 1 showdown). But still, our girl just… gave in.
Jang Dong-min was absolutely right that people who do not have a strong desire to win shouldn’t participate in a survival game show. So-hee and Kyuhyun are prime examples. For them, it felt less like a mindset of “I want to win” and more like “it’d be nice if I won” type of shit. Their gameplay in Episode 10 was nothing short of absurdity and stupidity, reeking of hypocrisy. And I truly believe Kyuhyun thought he was making some noble, principled play that would be admired by the public. It was as if he was just playing for the image (imo), and not actually playing the damn game itself objectively anymore. Even Hyun-gyu understood that a game is just a game. something he himself stated. But So-hee and Kyuhyun, after seemingly understanding and acknowledging 7high’s talk, decides to jump ship back to Hyun-gyu due to what? Friendship? Loneliness? What in the half-ass commitment and mentality was that… simply disrespectful to other players and I’d argue even to some extent to Hyun-gyu too, since the highest form of respect isn’t about holding back or being polite, but to give your very best such that the competition would be honoured and recognized. Look what they had done now, they ruined the show entirely (at least for me since Episode 10) and Hyun-gyu’s win isn’t as congratulated now since they had already lowered the competitiveness of the entire program.
My respect goes out to 7high and Eun-yu, the two players I ended up liking and appreciating the most. They were the most self-aware, grounded, and clear about where the line is between gameplay and real-life relationships. 7high gave off vibes similar to Ha Seok-jin in Season 1.
