Another Korean series I'd love to recommend is pyramid game. it's not about bloodshed but not too intense like NIGHT HAS COME. I've been seeing people post about pyramid game and how good it is.
Pyramid game follows transfer student Seong Su-ji, who's voted to the bottom of the class and becomes a target of school violence. Desperate to escape hierarchy, Su-ji sets out to climb to top.
It was released on 29, February 2024. With 10 episodes.
when students participate in a monthly popularity vote. The students with the fewest votes receives an F grade, becoming a target for school violence and social ostracizism. It enables higher -ranked students to bully those lower down.
When I watched the movie, I found it weird like what kind of game is this? It's not just about competing, it's about destroying fellow students who came to learn. Our main female lead becomes a victim and tries to survive by learning the game's rules, which has affected so many students mental health. The surprising twist was discovering that one of the students who always acted nice towards her was actually the game's mastermind.
I loved the premise of this series and it's execution, which felt really entertaining. The acting was suberb, especially from the main female lead and the villian. I appreciated how main the character's intelligence and determination to escape the game made her stand out. The supporting characters also blended perfectly, each bringing unique personalities which made the series amazing and the ending was great.
I'll rate it 8/10. It's a very good and entertaining series to watch, although the violence was intense at first, it lessened with each episode.
