I was immediately hooked after watching the trailer on Netflix. Right off the bat, I finished this in one seating, how could I not? a dark, thrilling and captivating drama that kept me on edge throughout.

The Victims' Game attempts to tackle serious issues in society and what makes it even more interesting is that instead of looking for the murderer, we're looking for victims. We get to see how to story unfolds as we follow along with the main characters – the forensic detective and a reporter, who try to solve the string of cases which are seemingly related to one another and the daughter. They are the complete opposite of each other and had some trouble working together in the beginning. As the story progress, we get to see their characters' develop and eventually, these two managed to put their differences aside and work together. Joseph Chang and Tiffany Tsu were excellent in playing the roles of the main characters and their chemistry gets better. Almost all the other characters were amazing, each of their stories left an impact on me. they each represented something that can be found in society such as the LGBT storyline, companies exploiting workers etc. We also get to understand the rationale of the characters.

Although there were some plots which could be further developed, having only 8-episode is not a major flaw. The music/OST definitely matches the aura of the drama. The amount of research and effort they put into the production is seriously top-notch. This can be seen by the behind-the-scene clips at the back of each episode – from the writing, directing, acting and the props. There were also sections of character analysis which some of the cast speaks about how and what they wanted to portray.

When we finish the drama, I think we will all gain a new perspective on life and death. It's not perfect but it's definitely worth watching. This drama takes you on a journey with the characters, opening your eyes and expanding your sensitivity towards one another. In some way, you might also be able to relate to it, making the message towards the end so much more powerful. Despite flawed, the "message" of the drama has definitely left a mark on me.

Super high chance of rewatching this again, just so that I can follow the clues again and look for things I missed the first time around.
