I hadn't watched the Korean versions
I hadnt watched the original as this isnt usually my taste when it comes to dramas and know it is best to keep it that way. I have regretted watching it as I only came to support win and ended up loving the other actors involved. Win is the ML and yet I felt he had the littlest time on the screen with SL and side characters popping up more then him.I know we all see romance in different perspectives but come on I saw more friendship with me shipping the FL and ML with every other person than each other.
What it taught me about beauty was really the saving point of it as I leant valuable lessons in what beauty is to society and the prison it can create

A mask we wear
This drama has taught me more in 10 episodes than I will ever learn in real lifeDramas have tried to integrate with social issues yet this one has hit the spot. Don't judge a book by its cover as they will be wearing a mask to try to thrive in a deadly environment where only a few can survive
We were shown what happens when you can't reach those expectations from key students from losing a friend to wanting to die as you think it is easy
Everyone needs to watch this masterpiece
A small stone won't do much damage but when it is multiple stones a significant impact can occur

I only came for win but all the actors have marked me with their incredible acting
The storyline was finely written without leaving gaps and usually, I always want backstories to explain how they get there. The reason why I enjoyed this so much is there are few dramas like this so the originality and creativeness is seen

Bromance is so important that is what kept it going. The action scenes were my favourite especially when it was 2 against 100 and yet still won when the opposition was using weapons that I rewatch it many times if I need a pick up. The story was intriguing and kept me glued to the point even my siblings who hate kdrama also watched it as well. It shows what is power exploitation and the lengths these characters will go to. It made me cry at times, especially at 6 but also made me laugh with the 2 cousins who made my day. Was this review helpful to you?

The mother trying to protect their daughter made me cry so hard. The daughter not wanting to leave her mother also made me cry. The live they had for each other.This movie made you think what you would do in that situation; go to the police and risk your family's safety or stay silent trying to be invisible to protect the ones you love.

I love how serious topics were brought up, like gender inequality and the SA, which was realistic and actually was part of the main story of Ohm. Their voices were heard as it is true that the amount of power Ohm held meant he got away with it if it weren't Pam speaking up on behalf of her girlfriend. It had me guessing throughout it, and my bet was on Kris, but I was wrong with that.

Jiwon is my favourite character, someone who struggle to express himself at times also someone who cares about other's opinion due to him being famous gymnast but truly cared for Junwoo in his own ways. He made me cry when he cried.
Jungwoo might seem scary to others but he is a total softie around the ones who truly know him. The one who isn't scared to say what he wants.
I actually liked the pacing of it.

The plot was simple and it was solid. However, there was character detail that made me attached to anyone even if one of them was getting abused by his father.
The reasoning behind suho actions I'm still confused about and the whole female character. What was her role? She just wanted to break the couple up

The main couple couldn't ever work out in real life. Toma is the quiet type the one that don't do bold statements and flashy gestures.
The other one is the unconfident one that always overthink everything from interactions to words spoken. They didn't work out. I'm all for opposites attract but there still need to be common ground.

The only saving grace was the flashbacks that saw a beautiful friendship between two boys that was so wholesome and I was more interesting then the present moment.
But how did he recognise Lee Jun. They were so young and their looks have changed quite a bit.
I skimmed the whole thing, nothing interested me

I really felt the emotions the they felt. Garn not the one to speak his feelings out loud and yet his simple words and glances given.
Tul wanting a family that he loves but we know deep down he loves Garn but not as powerful as Garn or maybe he was scared to pursue what his heart told him.
This shows reality for some people who ends up in a different pathway

The characters I overall liked but the the rich daughter was totally unnecessary in the drama as she is just there doing nothing for the plot
The sister I felt had some sort of mental disorder and needed to get professional help in this as she needed constant care throughout

Simple is sometimes best
People say you need complex stories to get a decent show and this movie clearly shows you, you don't.I like how it showed the reality of being poor and how far you would go for what you want.
The nobleman was my favourite character with his witty remarks and his obsession with his hair and how much he loves his car.

Don't waste your time
The characters their was too many of them in the short time frame so I didn't know their intentions or relationship with the other characters. The uncle did a real switch up of rejecting the advances to the one fighting for the relationship.The story was bland with me having no clue what was going on and how they got to their position in the story.
The time made it easy to watch with able to watch several of the episodes in one sitting. The extra video should've been last as it disrupted my watching with me confused as it was in the middle of the series which is unusual as others do the beginning or end of it.

It had a strong start, we all love an independent woman in the police force that is a bit wacky. She was my favourite no nonsense cut the chase. She proves she deserves her place on the force.
Totally misjudged the husband believing he is a pushover to learn he isn't and can bet out of sticky situations.
The middle was absolutely not worth it as it turned into who can catch the cheating husband. I spent a lot of time skipping for my sanity
The ending was so average in every aspect.
I had no clue what the plot was apart from money South Korea and missiles
