Starts off amazing for first 5 eps. When Ali died, the show lost its way a little. I’m also not sure point of the body organ subplot. Didn’t really lead to anything.
I’d also have rearranged the final scenes: have G sad and despondent, but also let him do charity stuff for Sang Woo’s mum etc. THEN let him not touch his own money for a year, as that still conveys his guilt and hopelessness. It still works. Otherwise, Seems bit weird and pathetic in order we got it in on the show. I get he was sad that his mom died, but bumming around for a year after seems quite a leap.
Lastly, did they really fly in the VIPS just to watch two games? A cool bridge one, and then what’s basically a cheap playground game of hopscotch? I think they should have come in earlier on the show.
This is a weird show. I don’t get the conceit at all. What is the point of all this? Don’t get me wrong I never miss an episode.
Decent Chinese fantasy action movie, apparently based on an MMORPG. Funny and compelling, with at times vastly overdone CGI. Imaginative visuals but cliché plot.
Sadly I can't find much about the game it is based on (in English).
Not sure if the actors dubbed their own characters in Mandarin or voice actors did this, but quite often the performances sound fake, most notably the protagonist (Henry Lau).
