9/10....cutting point because I wanted more and that'll be solved if they do the sequel like the end of the show hints at.

Absolutely cracking team of dumbasses. Eun Chae Ni to me was delightful simply because Eun Bin cannot be disliked anyway. Cha Eun Woo has finally got me. I get your appeal dude. Keep wearing tank tops and get injured in your shows to aura farm. That surely works for me. Choi Dae Hoon you absolute gem. Always so much fun to watch him devour every character ever. Im Seong Jae I don't know you yet but you were hilarious.

The story was nothing spectacular but the execution was. Neat and rightly paced. The comedy was so rightly done. Also it looked so cinematic.

This was the first promotional material and this is the exact vibe of the show. They find the only one who knows anything and bully adopt him to be more human.

SPOILERS -

Poor kids were tortured and then brainwashed into believing that had to hurt people, and died because of it 💔💔

i don't think i deserve it (please never leave)

Eun Chaeni and Lee Un-jeong zapped into existence in the middle of his apartment, her arms still banded tightly around his chest, bodies pressed together even after they realised where they’d ended up. If anything, she squeezed him more aggressively, as if making a point. His ribs were still sore and the rest of him wasn’t much better either, but he didn’t care - the pain reminded him that she was here, she was tangible, she was alive.

“Sorry,” she said sheepishly, but he could hear the smile in her voice, betraying the fact that it had been entirely intentional. “I got excited.”

A superhero show on crack

On crack because the genre is comedy, but also because the show only has 8 episodes and they stacked all the epic moments, all the cool shots and all the tropes that you would expect from a superhero show into those 8 episodes

The end result is a very nutritious meal, or better said an equivalent of 8 shots of espresso, each very intense with action scenes as well as heartwarming moments

Because it’s a comedy they take every opportunity to lean into dumb jokes, and it should feel cliche and overdone and cringe, and yet

It still works, dammnit, they still make it work which almost makes me mad

They take a superhero storyline which you’ve seen done a million times and still manage to tell a hilarious, coherent, engaging story with epic fight scenes, that makes you fall in love with and root for the characters

————————————————————————

The year is 1999 with the expected milennial apocalypse around the corner, and the story follows three friends who accidentaly gain superpowers, but throughout the whole story their key defining characteristics is that they are dorks and losers

(Fair warning that you might want to stop reading here, I introduce the characters and plot below and mention some tropes it uses, I don’t think I say much more than the trailers do but given the short length of this show you might want to avoid knowing more than the basics)
