ok
Pretty cool, interesting idea, although they forgot all about the roulette part halfway through. But what did I expect, since the target was alive. I was also surprised by why and how that jerk survived until the very end. The most interesting thing was that almost no one tried to kill him the whole time?? I thought there’d be more attempts, and sure, he was under police protection, but he was actually kidnapped right under their noses a few times, and NOTHING HAPPENED.I really liked that friend—Juho, I think?—I got such a nice vibe from him, actually

don't waste your time
romeraffy 🫶🏻MY FAVORITES. Honestly, instead of dragging out the jackdean storyline for the whole series, they should’ve developed these characters more. Because one moment Raffy says he doesn’t love him, and the next he’s going after him? What got into him (It’s been clear for a long time that Jack’s a jerk.)
They acted really well—it was a total pleasure to watch. And even though I'm more into fluff, I really liked their chemistry.

arnoldtua 50/50?
I don’t even know how to feel about them. Because knowing that the actor is homophobic and watching the character he plays fall for another guy is a little weird, you have to admit. Although, in my opinion, they have the healthiest relationship compared to the others.
But Arnold kept me going so I didn’t give up on the whole thing as early as episode 3.

jackdean 0/10
THEIR STORY WAS SO FORCED. I generally hate the second chance trope, so Dean and Jack lost points right away. Honestly, it would’ve been better if they’d just left them as friends at the end, I swear.
I’ve seen that a lot of people love these actors, but my first impression… well, just no.
ㅤ
They stopped showing Boston so suddenly. Or maybe I wasn’t paying attention—I only happened to catch a glimpse of his face in one episode, because before that I thought he’d just disappeared. But they kind of phased him out really awkwardly; the show just didn’t feel right without him.
Almost the entire plot was initially centered on how Dean thinks he’s the best person in the world, and then how sad he is because his boyfriend dumped him. But for what? Just stfu. There are two other couples, after all. It’s just boring. Plus, it’s way too drawn out.
I honestly thought this would be like second season, or at least something similar to the first part, but the only similarity was that they showed the main characters from 1st part for just a few seconds at the beginning.
Also, maybe someone else noticed how a certain object is in one shot but missing in the next. I can only recall one specific scene right now where Rome was standing with headphones around his neck, and a second later he sat down, and they were completely gone.
If, as they say, there are hints of a third season, I won’t be watching it, because I suspect it’ll be even worse.

Honestly? At first, I was curious to see what they’d come up with combining Khaofyors and cats, since I love both. About halfway through, it started to get a little boring, but I still watched it all the way through because it wasn’t that bad. Plus, I got curious about what would happen between Leo and that vet.It kind of felt like they were just picking each new problem at random—I don’t know 😭
And for some reason, I thought there’d be hybrids in the show—no idea where I got that from—but I changed my mind after two episodes.

idk
From the very beginning, I watched this drama just for one actor, and then he ended up killing himself at the end—thanks a lot. There are only four episodes, and to be honest, I didn’t understand almost anything about the plot ㅠ. I think they should have made a few more episodes to explain things better.My rating is mostly for the visuals; I really liked the way everything looked.
One thing I can say: I love strong, feisty women.

it's ok
I have such mixed feelings about this show... They thought it through, but who knows what they were thinking.While watching, I was like this: 😐🥹🖕🏻🤯
I really love mysteries, and I liked the story, but everyone was accusing everyone else and making such a mess of things that I lost track of part of the plot. One moment Pued’s guilty, the next he’s not—they got themselves all tangled up
Plus, I spoiled it a little for myself when I read the description, because the tags say “wrongfully accused,” so I knew a bit of what was coming right off the bat.
The couple is SO COOL. my friend was right about their chemistry—I really liked them, and their dynamic just makes me feel so good.
Sorawit and That are totally my weakness—they’re such sweethearts 😭🤏🏻
But the cinematography is really interesting. The characters’ poses would sometimes shift slightly with the camera angle, and when they were driving in the car, the background looked a little off. But it’s not for me to judge—I’m not a cinematographer, just a viewer.

This is such a great drama—I love watching when the bad guys get what they deserve. I love genres where the main character beats everyone up and doesn’t get hurt at all (except for the last episode—I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO DIE), because it’s fun.I love men yearning.
The father had a daughter, but ended up with a son 😭
Episode 2 leaves me confused—how could such bad guys suddenly turn good? (Although if a gang with weapons was beaten up like that right in front of me, I’d be rethinking my own life too), but I love the long-haired guy.
At the end, the father was ready to beat the crap out of that jerk himself: “YOU LITTLE BASTARD, HE’S MY SON-IN-LAW!” 😭

I loved EVERY SINGLE THING about it. It’s so intense that my heart was pounding half the time. Honestly, I’d already kind of forgotten what the first one was like (at least because it was dubbed in my language and I just had it playing in the background), but I felt like I liked the second one even more. Aside from the cool guys beating up the bad guys and the others fucking killing everyone, I also got really emotionally invested. Every time the main characters cried, I was ready to cry right along with them, but I held back just because of my contact lenses.Woojin and Gunwoo’s friendship is so precious—the “found family” trope really hits hard. They’re so smart and super cool; I love them so much 😭
And iPad Kid (MDL says his name is Alan, but I didn’t hear anyone call him by name, so who knows) broke through my wall of indifference toward antagonists, even though I wouldn’t exactly call him that bad? He was just running around after the guy with the tail and doing whatever he was told so he wouldn’t get stabbed.
Just to spite myself, I said I liked Taegeom, and then they killed him off in the very next episode 😔
I also have one complaint. Why are most of the bodyguards and these guys either dumb or—I just don’t get fights—AND WHY DOESN’T ALMOST ANYONE HAVE A WEAPON? I’m surprised that when they were catching Baekjeong (or however his name is spelled), the guy remembered he had a stun gun, and that asshole didn’t have time to kill everyone with that shitty scalpel.
Hints at a third season??

it's fun
It was interesting and fun—even though I can’t stand liars, even fictional ones, I really enjoyed it. But it was also pretty unusual, since I still have a fairly short list of BLs I’ve watched (this is number 13), and the proposal in the very first episode out of 12 surprised me, even though you could have expected it from the title—plus, you should read the description before watching, not like I did.paitim
I really, really fell for them. Tim was looking at him with those eyes—ohhh, if someone looked at me like that, I’d melt. How can they fake chemistry like that?

I didn’t like them at all in the first half of the series; their start was so illogical and cringey, in my opinion, that my eyes nearly popped out of my head watching their relationship develop and them getting married at the snap of a finger; but over time, they became a little more interesting.

WATCH IT
There’s a difference between murder and what Kan did, at least in that it was done with the patients’ full consent. I mean, they were all sick and were going to die soon anyway, and euthanasia is just putting an end to their suffering. So I don’t think it’s a bad thing.I don’t really have much to say about the couple, since the focus was more on the suspense, but you could still feel something between them—and there were even some cute moments, like 🤏🏻
I expected a bad ending almost from the very beginning, and that’s kind of how it turned out, though it really comes down to perception.
“I love you, Doc,” he says as he’s driving Kan away in handcuffs, and that was the end. I almost climbed up to the ceiling, to be honest.
It’s also listed under the “mystery” genre, and either I’m perceiving it differently or there isn’t any mystery there at all.

Absolutely loved it
One of the reasons I love detective stories is that they force my mind—which is always thinking anyway—to delve into every case and figure out who’s behind it. That’s exactly it.At first, I thought that after receiving a brain transplant from Seong Yo Han—who everyone at the time considered a psychopath—Ba Reum was starting to lose his mind and become one himself; or, more precisely, that the other man’s brain was beginning to control his own. When he was killing the psychopaths themselves, I thought his genes had mutated as a result of the “mixing” of the two minds, but it turned out completely differently.
What surprised me was that they allowed Han Seo Jun—a serial killer who performed experiments on his own victims—to operate on Ba Reum’s head. But I think that’s because he’s a really skilled surgeon, and besides, all the other doctors knew what was going on there.
In the end, it turned out that Seong Yo Han was accused without much investigation, simply because he had some photo and was Seo Jun’s son. Although the only thing he did that could have landed him in jail was beating Ba Reum with a hammer.
The twist that surprised me the most was that everything was completely different from how it seemed—in reality, Yo Han was a genius, while Ba Reum was a psychopath, and all those murders were his doing.
My favorite characters were detective Ko and Daniel Lee. The detective often acted on emotion rather than reason—it was always “I’m going to kill that scumbag.” But I can understand him; his parents were killed when he was little, and then his brother was killed right on TV.
And over time, I started to really love Yo Han 🥹

they're so adorable
if you love fluff with a touch of silliness (and just a tiny bit of tears, if you’re as sensitive as i am), this is the place for you. i once heard someone say, “love should be fun,” and this is kind of like that.i loved watching Qinn slowly but surely warm up and literally blossom alongside him. when he started smiling, i just melted. he became so tender by the end 🙏🏻
i adore both main characters with all my heart, AND MARS AND JAMIE 💅🏻 i also really love the main characters’ friends—can i have some like that, too? Pae is my kitty
I LOVE THEM SO MUCH, they’re so sweet iaiaiaiaiaia. i’d go on and on about this to my friends every day, and everyone would unfollow me, so i just quietly screamed in my notes.
and the actors 🙏🏻—i really love their performances; i don’t even know how to describe how delighted i am with them.
