There is strangely very little information about this drama, even though we've already got a trailer. Maybe it's because it's going to be on Disney+, and Disney+ has a rather patchy approach to promoting its kdramas? 😅
What we know is that our story is set in the world of casinos, and is...

Upside: Lee Da Hee and Choi Si Won!! I think they're both pretty great - especially if Lee Da Hee is allowed to be as fabulous as she was in Search: WWW!
Upside: This looks like a friends-to-lovers sort of deal, which can be fun when done right.
Downside: The trailer vibes a bit manic...

E1. I hadn't been super sure, from the mixed reactions I'd heard about this show, but one episode in, I do think that this one could quite possibly work out to be a solidly enjoyable watch.
First of all, it's Ji Chang Wook in a space that I think suits him particularly well.
