This could've been good.
Like all the other reviews, I will start by saying it was a strong beginning but the ending was a poor choice imo.
The mystery of it all was intriguing to guess around of who had what roles. I believe the show did a good job at showcasing teenage gullibility and how if you have a friend you'll believe what they say. There were times I was questioning each person and then I would understand their motive of being suspicious. I believe the show was trying to get a shock with the murders and kind of lost the reason of what the show was about in the first place. Na Hee, my beloved, you deserved so much better. It was an easy watch and I always say if it's not for me, it's for someone else. This show is an example.
Acting wise I will say Lee Jae In (Yoon Seo) was great. She kills it whatever she's in and this one was a respectable choice. The script was a little off at times but for a 12 episode, 30 min. each show, I can understand the rush they were using when explaining things. I do think the theatrics were a bit much of being extremely obvious in a crowded room (cough cough So Mi and Da Beom) so it was a little off putting seeing that and every goes for the innocent one. WooSeok (Jun Hee) was a respectable watch, I do think because of his popularity they can't just kill him off in the middle of the show because their viewership would go down. I was surprised when Kyung Jun died and -stayed- dead, given the curveballs we were receiving but a nod to Cha Woo Min who took the L.
Now, the ending. I caught the vibe of what they were trying to do but given the fact that they rushed it all in the last 5 minutes is insane of them to think that was a good idea. They already were being unclear throughout the show with giving up minimal amount of knowledge of Eun Ha and who she even was for us to care. Then they are telling us, "well actually, all of these kids deserve being put through torture for what my daughter went through" and listen. I love the revenge arch idea. Again, last 5 minutes to intake all of that is crazy. At least give us 2 more episodes. One in the beginning, prefacing Eun Ha's death and giving us literally anything about this girl and gain some sort of attachment. One at the end, giving us more of the parents and their mindset on starting this and maybe some drama of what they had to do to get 30 kids without authorities being flagged by it all. Then maybe give us more of her throughout the show, not just quick ghost glimpses and secretively it being Jungwon all along because HOW are we supposed to connect any reason to these lines of the story if we don't have a base. Also just to reroute it back to the beginning . . . what did we gain? Like, sick, I watched all of these episodes of these kids killing each other only to find out, there is no solution. Listen, I love cliffhangers, but this last 10-30 seconds just gives you no hope because you have nothing to go off of.
Overall, it isn't bad. I just need more to fully be enraptured by this story line and maybe if they one day decide to give it a season 2, please stop giving me anger without a reason and maybe some grief or something to show that the start of all of this was because this innocent girl was bullied to death. If you are wanting revenge, I recommend The Glory or Blind. If you want a quick watch to just get a taste of mystery and death, then I recommend this. I don't recommend a rewatch unless you are either down bad for Wooseok or you like paining yourself with the unknown questions of what just happened.
