Fake news, questionable morality, and troublesome technology
"7 Escape" was an organized mess. It had all the "charm" of a sinking ship. There were plenty of moments that threatened to send me scrambling for the nearest escape route (the poor character development, repetitive conflict, pseudo-romantic encounters, rushed redemption arc), and plenty of others that managed to serve up food for thought on the human conditionOne moment of revelation was the ill-fated character "K," who was swapped at birth and brought up in a wealthy household. After discovering his origins, he was discarded by his once-doting family. K's words, "noone can be family unless you're related by blood" (episode 12, 32:34) and "since I was young, I was the one to entertain and serve Father, why am I the fake son?" (episode 12, 39:25), invite us to question society's obsession with "biological lineage." Far too often, adoptive families or children are seen as "less worthy." The pursuit of a biological "mini-me" takes precedence, as if blood were the determinant of familial bonds. This skewed perception belittles the love, commitment, and joy found in adoptive families
Another moment was the dichotomy between "the real and the fake" (episode 12, 39:00). The drama reminds us that no matter how convincingly something mimics reality, there will always be a distinction. Even if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it might not be a duck
Finally, the dangers of technology wielded by those ignorant of its potential. "7 Escape" considers our unhealthy relationship with technology and the ramifications of unchecked technological advancements. It draws attention to humanity's "vulnerability" to the influence of fake news (episode 12, 15:16), a significant issue in the modern, tech-driven society
In conclusion, "7 Escape" was a blend of misguided, cringe-worthy storytelling and surprising insight. It had both irredeemable and redeeming qualities

Shit show they try to saved it, but couldn't
Season 2 continued with our cliff hanger from Season 1. The sinners are back, but are on different side Shim Joon Seok aka K side. Min Do Hyeok is the protagonist and is fighting against the evil Matthew Lee aka K. They should have stick to one name, but it wouldn't be a drama if it wasn't so confusing right? The real and the fake the battle. And they included the technology aspect and then the women beater you think we couldn't get anymore confusing we did. Dami story finally somewhat ended. It lost it momentum, but I am glad it is over. Check it out if you are interested in the craziness. Good job to the teamQuesta recensione ti è stata utile?
Makjang to the highest level
I knew going in that this drama would be extreme in every way possible. But since I watched the first part, had to finish it with this second part.This second season has introduced 2 new characters and of these 2, I'm not liking the aunt. Does she really talk that way??? Acting wise...thumbs down for me. The show has put in so much twist and turns that it feels like it has now become dragging. I just watched ep 12 and franky, fast forwarded several scenes. I'm getting tired just thinking about those 4 last episodes coming.. (Tired but still watching till the end).
As expected, the story has veered far.... far... far.... far off course to the point that you might have forgotten how it started out in the first place. Ah, Bang Da Mi, the series of events your demise triggered....... totally unrecognizable.. LOL
Anyway, they should have stopped this series at ep 10 because it has honestly been going on for too long.....
