I found it better than S1. In S1 we saw games by the participants prospective but in this one we alos got to see perspective of recruiter, pink guards, black guard and the main guy. The rating is low because MDL audience is always has been like this, a romantic cliche drama with same story and nothing new to offer easily gets 8.5+ rating but when a thriller dramas starts getting popular all of them suddenly become critics.
Their complaints doesn't even make any sense. Many are surprised that why did we get s sequel, bro it was already obvious by the ending of S1. Some are saying that what kind of ending was that when everyone already know it was part 1 of S2 and part 2 is yet to come so what ending?
I'm happy that Park Gyu Young got enough screen-time, I thought she is a guard so she will always be in mask and unrecognizable but the really made her stand out. All characters had good screen-time but Jo Yu Ri and Lee Jin Wook were barely there.
