On tvn youtube BTS of ep 3 and 4 Hana said she'll have to pick between Mun and her ex-crush I think but my Korean…
thanks for the insight ! glad you agree with me on that, i was scared they would pull a taxi driver season 2 which had such a lacking script... maybe you should put your answer in spoiler though
I really like this new season ! I was a bit scared with the first 2 eps because of so many new characters and questionable humor but ep3 got me hooked the newbie is really the opposite of Somun so it works quite well with the teampeople are getting mad over the fact that there won't be any romance between Somun and Hana but we don't know that yet + I don't think it's that much of an issue as it would fit Hana's character if nothing happened (also the guy that plays Dohwi is absolutely not important in the story, looking at the cast order on MDL)
they really forgot to explain how the hell she got out of her drowning car ? The ending was way too short to bring closure to this story. The romance also felt extremely forced, at what point do both of them know each other enough to be in a relationship ? Quite disappointing on some aspects, 5/10 but the story telling was better than the average drama, making it very watchable and binge-able. No mindblowing performance from the actors though.

unecessarily bloody to compensate a storyline that goes all over the place in 6 episodes, with no resolution whatsoever and ZERO character development. Haein is a good actor, but his character was vague af
The best season in terms of the amount of talented rappers on the show since season 7 definitely ! Loved the mix of drill and mainstream, and the strong bond that some teams created :)
However, we can't overlook the absolute laziness of the producers starting from the semi-finals (except GroovyRoom) and the HUGE reliance on featuring artists (but that's not new) that carried half of the performances...
Very disappointing compared to season 1: - The revenges are super basic, nothing funny or original - No character development at all ? Only a series of cases that do't let us see anything new or interesting about the leads like we had in the previous season and that made it touching tbh - A real lack of depth of the "villain", and nothing that compares to the fight between the leads and the prosecution - The ways Go Eun is able to hack stuff or the other leads to enter places is even more irrealistic now - Lee Je Hoon doesn't have the opportunity to showcase his various impersonations, it's either Kim Do Gi the silent chad or Kim Do Gi the naive stupid that lures people into his traps - We also miss the scary effect of the gang they used to work with in S1 which made every episode thrilling and at least challenged the leads a bit... Overall it is watchable but it's a mere 6/10 compared to the masterpiece that was S1 (although it was not perfect either, but had its wow effect)
I hope there won't be plot holes and that they will fill the gaps because there were MANY things left unanswered at the end of the 3 parts and this sequel takes place a decade later...
After completing this show, it really scares me to see that we can find such awful levels of writing in kdrama land, for dramas into which HUGE amounts of money went, specifically Big Mouth and Little Women. Did they use all their money for actor casting instead of scenarists ? Probably. We've been used to classic twists and turns which are at the root of the uniqueness of korean dramas, but the audience could at least ask for character consistency and a maximum of what, 10 plot twists ? Otherwise the main tags of this drama should be soap opera. The last episode was barely watchable :/ Also interesting to note that the only reason men are in this show is because they would sacrifice everything for the female leads. Interesting choice, but at least don't make this their only personality trait.
This show was great until episode 8, and then the writers TOTALLY LOST IT ! Why all those twists ? They transform mystery and suspense into absolute nonsense, with a ton of plot holes and childlish plot arcs I really loved it at first, it had a lot of potential (for example regarding the drama's take on money and the gray area a lot of characters were in such as Do-il, Sang-a or In-hye) but then it just became a big brother type of story with no nuance whatsoever, where characters become one-sided only. Of course the production quality is great and the acting is too, but there was truly a lack of logic in the script

Hated the ending even more when it was so obvious that it was rigged
