This is a well-made drama, with good directing, good script, good acting, good cinematography. The main character played by Woo Do-hwan is the soul of the whole drama. I have not watched his previous works but his acting here is top-notch in my opinion.

I'm surprised that Netflix categorized this drama as comedy. This is NO COMEDY although there are some funny parts, the whole story is tragic and the tone is very very sad. Don't be fooled by that if you are looking for something light and feel-good to watch.

I feel that the 10 episodes can be shortened to 8 episodes. Sometimes the pace is a bit slow especially the crying scenes.

I watched 5 episodes but then found out it's not finished, I hate the Netflix now likes to split a season in 2 parts and release separately. Come on it's only 1 season, release all together.

I love Squid Game so I had high expectations for this game show. The first couple of episodes are quite good, interesting games with some additional twist so it wont be the same as the drama. But then it gets more and more boring. First, there are too much talking, too much "interview sessions" of individual contestants, some of them even spoke again and again. It's good to get to know them better by listening to their background stories, but some just repeated spoke irrelevant annoying stuff. Second, the elimination of players by other players is not as exciting/ entertaining as elimination through games, and they did this multiple times in a prolonged way.
