This was such a fun watch!
The VHS-inspired aesthetic, horror-survival elements and cinematography worked incredibly well for me. I especially loved the humor and thought the show struck the perfect balance between horror and humor without either taking away from the other.
I also really liked its commentary on class exploitation and corporate greed. If I'm interpreting it correctly, the monsters were minimum-wage workers who died unjustly on the job and became the "Yin", or the dark side, while their employers/Other people represented the "Yang", or the bright side of the world. The irony of that contrast is quite telling. Human greed was also explored well through the protagonist, who, despite repeatedly experiencing life-threatening situations, still couldn't resist taking on another job for twice the money.
I actually liked the cliffhanger ending and would definitely return for a second season. My only complaint is that I wish Go Min-Si's character had been explored a little more, although I understand that keeping her mysterious was probably intentional.
Overall, a genuinely entertaining horror-survival show with great cinematography, humor and an interesting premise. If you enjoy horror, survival stories, and that video-game-esque VHS aesthetic, this is definitely worth a watch.
9/10, Would definitely clock in for that paycheck! hahahahaha 🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥
