I'm not holding my breath, because they basically wrote out Yun Gyeom (and his group) in episode 4, and I'm not expecting to see them back for a while.

Did somebody forget to tell the writer that she has 16 episodes, because why on earth did she cram so much into one episode? I'm sorry, but this episode felt so rushed and all over the place. So much happened and barely any of it got a chance to breathe. It's a shame, because the ideas are incredibly interesting, but this episde just kinda rushed through everything instead of actually exploring any of these ideas. It couldn't even answer who exactly Yun Gyeom was. Is he gay? Trans? Asexual? Intersex? I don't know. All he said was "I cannot lie with women". And "sexual minorities" is a very broad term. It's like the show expects me to somehow know this even though we're not given nearly enough context.

Romance wishers, you won!

There is, just don't expect it to be happy lol.

Okay, so what happened to the kid? I'm pretty sure he was wearing the same clothes as on the night of the accident in his scene with Yeong Ji, so is he also a "ghost"? Is he in a coma? Is he dead? Or did he already recover and he was actually really there?

Honestly, it's a mix of genres. Episodes 1 & 2 go pretty heavy on the horror, while also being mysterious. Episodes 3 & 4 tone down the horror and are more mysterious as you slowly start to figure out what's going on. Episodes 5 & 6 are more of a character-focused tragedy, and are arguably the most emotional & depressing episodes so far.

I mean, obviously they're very different shows. I didn't mean that they were the exact same. It's just that the basic concept of it all is very similar, but instead of facing deadly games, the victims face other things. It's more of a direct reaction I had to episode 4, as you're slowly realizing that they're essentially dealing with the same concept (heck, having the AiB knowledge probably helped me figure out the twist before the end of the episode actually revealed it).

Isn't this just the plot of Alice In Borderland lol?

Let's be honest here, the main reason I suspected U Jin since the beginning is because he was played by Lee Yi Kyung, and that's just the Marry My Husband trauma. I'm not sure I would've figured it out so quickly if he was played by anybody else.

Honestly, Ju-ran's ending really rubs me the wrong way. Like, literally everybody else had some kinda happy(ish) ending (even Hye-rang). Meanwhile Ju-ran gets an ending that gets more and more depressing every time you think about it.

It's kinda funny how everytime the leads were in a scene together, I found myself really enjoying it. But then when they weren't in a scene together, I felt the exact opposite. Basically, it's a mixed bag with potential (they just need to give the leads a lot of scenes together).

1. He probably just fell of the cliff. Ha-bin probably got the blood when she went to check on her brother (only the lower area of her clothes had blood on them, so maybe she got that when kneeling down in the blood or something). Personal opinion: I don't think we should've seen what really happened on-screen.

2. We saw how Seong Hui killed Min-a in episode 9. I don't think Yeong-min's death is ever shown on-screen, but we did see a flashback of Seong Hui running away from the area with blood on her. I assume Ha-bin got there shortly after Seong Hui killed him and then checked on the body (I assume she was in a state of shock and part of her was probably panicking).

Watched the first 9 episodes over the last 2 days, so now I'm ready for the finale. I don't know shit, but I'm sticking to my one theory I've had since the beginning: Ha Bin is not the killer.

Another extra scene. Fans of A Ra & Su Ho will probably like this one.

No, it wasn't. There were actually quite a lot of these extra scenes (or existing scenes that were extended) throughout the season that were posted on social media. I assume the reason for them not being included in the episodes is that they weren't from Ji Yu's pov, as she's the central character of this season.

Also, I really like this extra scene between Kang San and Mi Na. Very little dialogue, but it still manages to say a lot at the same time. Also adds a lot of context to the episode I think, especially in regards to Mi Na.

Talk about an iconic ending scene lol. While I don't think it comes close to the quality of OG Skam, I think it's a solid and very enjoyable show. And I very much appreciate them actually sticking to the OG storyline. They made some changes, but I think most of those work well enough. Idk if this show was popular enough for them to renew it for additional seasons, but I for one will totally be here if they do.

Honestly, that's difficult to answer. Aside from the original, it's really personal preference, because everybody has a different opinion on it. They're all worth checking out I think. They all have their good parts, and they all have at least one season that's total garbage.

You mean Do Ha right? Because Su Ho is pretty much innocent. But what was so good about Chris in the OG? Or S1 William? Sure, they were popular, but saying they were good people feels like a bit of a stretch. I don't mind this change, because Chris was never really that relevant as a character, and he doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things. William (Su Ho in this case) does matter, and making him more innocent here is something I think works, because Noora (A Ra) also feels softer here than she did in the OG, which puts those two on an even playing field. Not everybody is a good person, and Do Ha just isn't a good person, and maybe that's okay.

Okay, I was confused for a bit, but it does seem like Kang San is with Mi Na to avoid his real crush. Sure, avoiding a kiss because she's drunk is the right thing, but it seems obvious that that's not exactly the real reason. They better follow the OG Skam story here. The one thing I don't like about this whole thing is that Mi Na is yet again gonna be the one with the broken heart here.

Also, it kinda seems like A Ra has convinced herself that she can't like Su Ho. I do understand that, and I fully understand why she's being cautious, but he genuinely seems like a good guy. It's interesting, because in the OG he was actually a player, but here there's the preconception of him being a player, when he's not actually one. Regardless, I'm totally rooting for them.
