I watched 1.5 episodes. My first TV show/movie in 3 months. Did it to have something to speak about with the person who recommended it. It was OK

I would rate it watchable with a good twist at the end.

It was good I just have better things on my playlist - like new seasons of Money Heist & Sucession

I didn't find it compelling. I skimmed through the last episode just to see what the big hoo ra ra was about. Maybe I should've started at the beginning.
I'm not a fan of long shows anymore. I have no patience watching it all.

If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Haven't watched, but a more interesting poll would be would you play ;)
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Watched it -  the English acting at the end lessened the quality IMHO.
Side note, watch it in Korean with English subtitles.

(Probably belongs in https://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=39535)

I could probably list a half-dozen South Korean cultural artifacts I'd be more eager to experience,
though that's without looking into it more than Googling the name. Anyway, I don't have Netflix.
Do you want to play a board game, digitally or in Lakewood NJ? PM me. (Can be asynchronous, i.e. take turns whenever)

Many do this. I am usually doing something on the computer so that wasn't an option.

From reading about this on Wikipedia, I saddens me that something like this becomes so popular. Is there anything of value at all in it?
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!
