this show is A GREAT example of the show, don't tell concept.
>>>>>>INCREDIBLY<<<<<<< well acted. actually made me breeze through the show. didnt come into this hoping to like it so much, since the story has been done many times and ive watched so many shows about violence, bullying yada yada that i became desensitized to it, but the characters just pulled me in - due to the unsual (thats a good thing) acting delivery. props especially to sieuns actor, usually the kind of character i hate because of the way the actors/showrunners choose to portray them unrealistically cold/shut-off, but man, i could feel everything he felt, he didn't seem stiff or like he was trying to act like a robot at all, he felt HUMAN, real. not only through his incredibly emotional eyes but he delivered every line sooo well. big fan, hope to watch more things with him in the future.Was this review helpful to you?
awful, to my taste.
hatewatched through the end bc i already went through 6 episodes thinking it would somehow get better: it didnt.dont trust you will love this if you liked king the land!!!!! i mainly started bc it got rec for me after loving that show. its NOTHING like it besides the setting.
i will admit: it wasnt made for me, but i came in with the premise that it was just like what i liked about king the land, so i will rate it with that premise in mind.
if you like over the top comedy, way too dragged out scenes with boring and annoying sidecharacters you will love this, not my case.
also hated the main guys acting, nothing against him personally, but he was so stiff and it wasnt just a character thing, i could tell, especially bc i hate when stiff characters are portrayed like a failed attempt at being robot like. he didnt even succeed at seeming unhuman. just took me out of immersion MULTIPLE times.
anyways, this for sure is made for some people and i dont judge anyone who likes it. just giving a word of warning for ppl who might like me come into it expecting something else :)
