This is just a reboot of The Genius (it was inspired by Lair Game)
And it is the directors previous work so it’s kinda a disappointment especially as a fan of every TG season


I feel like naming it differently promised a new style but everything beside the cast is the same, the set, the game explanation and the overall games
They should’ve atleast owned up to it and called it a reboot

I think I’ll go crazy waiting for the second half of this, for once I wish this aired at once😭

The way rohee became cold and only smiled when myungjoon came to her🥹
And young myungjoon alone is so pure they deserve never ending happiness 🥹🥹🥹🥹

Myungjoon’s eye smiles and rohee’s smirks must be protected at all costs 🥹

It’s awkward and cringey 😬

“Older” actors have this unshakable “maturity” that acting young just looks awkward on them, like trying too hard his behavior was of a man child

It’s the same when a 20year old actor try to act 40
they wouldn’t have lost anything if they let him be his age or atleast 38ish🤣

Crush can be adoration and admiration
Love is different
Like fl’s friend crushing over ml but her real “love” was eonnie guy🤣

Ofc🤣 was I not praising it enough? Beautiful characters, sweet bromance, amazing female characters, beautiful journey, funny and heartwarming and eventho the romance did have a big age gap but it was so balanced and played so well🥲🥲🥲🥲

Well even with the ending the whole journey is so worth it I actually watched it twice 🥹😏😭
She was a calm yet naive and sweet Nobel woman who was actually kickass and strong 🥹🫶🏻

Her character in space sweepers was honestly such a dream it was a shame her screen time wasn’t enough 😔

Dude then you must watch Mr sunshine and twenty five twenty one🥹 also her movies tho plotwise not that extraordinary but her characters are 🌚👍🏻

I've missed her so much😭

Didn’t the shaman go with her from the start? I thought that’s what he said (I saw her outside her office and offered to come along)

The problem was she “cleared” both so they were the least sus to her
Tbh ML should’ve given her a taser, they all knew she was a target

But yeah I want a bigger plot twist then it being the shaman🤣


Also ikr KTR was so hot😏🫶🏻

She had a crush on sunwoo but her relationship was “closer/deeper” with ml she just didn’t admit it

She was brave cuz she didn’t sus sunwoo 🤷🏻‍♀️
She left him cuz the murderer was mainly after her and she was defenseless

Tbh she shouldn’t have been dragged into this cop stuff from the start, who’s to blame? Ml🤣
tho suddenly when tensions are high the cops leave their next targets alone🌚 so the real blame is the writer creating those moments 🤣

That can be true too, he was surprised the knife disappeared so he tagged along and sunwoo took it to show her😏👍🏻

Obv sunwoo called her surprised that someone planted the knife in his stuff and shaman tagged along knowing that
Sunwoo tried hard to talk to her alone but the shaman kept pulling him away to let her find the knife
Poor sunwoo was worried the murderer would take the knife so he was trying to protect her

Shaman on the other hand, not only knew about the knife but he also faked looking for it in case she touched him again
I think that’s the blackouts, when he does something repeatedly he can delete his scenes
And he deletes often so he gets confused what is real or when they happen

I’m glad milk guy didn’t die knowing they were susing him🤣 and sunwoo didn’t blame her cuz naturally she’d come to that conclusion and he was just trying to protect her🥹

At this point they can’t bring out a new sus like FL’s friend’s dad and say that’s the murderer, the only one left is the least suspicious cuz he was already cleared, is shaman

Even if they end up revealing my sus I’m still happy with their process, they had a good balance of susing out everyone well
I especially enjoyed susing milk guy well👍🏻

He told her to trust him and told her everything he actually did when he wasn’t around
What else could he do?

Obv he called her surprised that someone planted the knife in his stuff but he was more shocked to see the shaman with her and he tried to pull him away to talk to her alone
But the shaman, being the murder didn’t want that and so sunwoo was worried the murderer would take the knife and he was trying to protect her

Ml literally confessed to her but yeah the romance isn’t the focus

the cast is 🔥
