1-6 is definitely fricking amazing television. I agree the last few episodes just felt dragged out. Especially the last. Still a great show with a cool message. Binged the hell out of it.


Still not a perfect show by any means. I agree with a lot of people that some of it dragged. Like the parts where there weren’t games or we weren’t with the cop or doctor. But those moments were necessary to make you feel a certain way about each character. I appreciate the attempts to make you care for each and every one of them and they mostly succeed. Episode 6 absolutely destroyed me and should go up for some awards. Brilliant and devastating episode.

Just finished it last night, and pretty much how I feel. WAY too much slow motion was used (e.g. in the 1st game sequence). The finale felt forced.

Maybe this was mentioned, but my biggest pet peeve was this: WTF was everyone except the front man using revolvers? Are Korean police in 2021 really still using revolvers? I really hated this aspect of it.
