Ya me too. It isn't the best out there and the plot is really bonkers, but they executed it really well. I'm actually enjoying the cinematography, it has some really good soundtrack and the cast is amazing. So yeah I'll probably stick till the end.
Loved this article! Asian survival movies are always the best, especially the Japanese ones. I came across the Mafia/Werewolf game a few years back, and it's such a fun game! A game of strategy, betrayal and deception. There are several online platforms where you can play it and I'd say my top favourites would be Wolveswille and Mafia 42. Yet to watch the Werewolf Game movies, the movie isn't properly subbed. I've been trying to find a platform to watch it, someone help?
Firstly, this is such a great article, and I look forward to reading more of your work @Aehsassy
A lot of people are freaking out with the Oppa thing, and I feel like I'm the only one who isn't? I don't know where from India you are Aehsassy, but we have a similar thing in South India. I mentioned this in another comment but I'll just repeat it here. Married women/younger women call their husband/lover -Ikka/chetta which literally means brother 😅 My mum calls my dad Ikka, and well that's what I call my cousin brother. So personally, for me, it's easier to understand in what context 'Oppa' is used.
The reading culture is not a shock though? Maybe it's because you're not much into books. An avid reader here, and everything you mentioned up there is something that's happening worldwide.
My major shock is how...free high school kids are? LIKE WHY THEY KEEP WALKING AROUND AT NIGHT!? Pretty sure you know how well that works in India, especially if you're a girl lol.
I am somehow baffled about on what you have stated as cultural shocks and began to wonder which place/region/country(no…
I just wanted to point out that 'Hyung' is used refer older males by a younger male. A female does not use the term 'Hyung', it's 'Oppa' for her. It's kinda confusing when you use it to refer as brother as well as a sweetheart. But where I'm from, it's similar. Married woman/younger girls refer to their husband/Bf with a term that loosely translate to brother. My mum calls my dad 'Ikka' while I call my brother the same🤷♀️
There were quite some actors that does NOT resemble at all. Like Lee Dong Wook and Nishikido Ryo, Woo Do hwan & whoever he is, and some others too. Like HOW? WHERE DO THEY RESEMBLE?
But Uhm Ki Joon and Yoo Juon Sang was realllllyyyyyyy same.
we will have to wait for his reincarnation time, and all these actors will have between 10 mins to 30 mins or…
And I'm willing to wait. Also, I know he appears only for a single episode, but the cast gets better each ep💜 It's one of the main reason why this drama is worth a watch. Can't wait for it to premiere!
Perfect Marriage Revenge airs the finale next week and I was sad to bid bye to Sung Hoon. But this guy looks even more dashing in Death's Game. Not so sad anymore!!!!
I thought I was the only one who found Our Beloved Summer boring. The 'hype' around this drama bought me in and was truly disappointed with how the drama came out to be. Wish I could refund those 16 hrs.

I am NOT missing a Lee Dong Wook drama.
Not so sad anymore!!!!
GOD!!
