Article: The Guardian praises ‘Hellbound, “Truly exceptional drama that will be spoken about for decades”
Source: YTN via Naver [Guardian]
1. [+1,083, -53] ‘Hellbound’ needs a second season to wrap up the open ending… and the streamer had too much screentime
2. [+554, -15] ‘Squid Game’ is a bit more entertaining while ‘Hellbound’ is more philosophical?
3. [+356, -57] I remember when ‘Squid Game’ first came out, people were calling it boring or how the directing was bad or this and that about the acting. Seeing as how there are comments like that about ‘Hellbound’, it must be daebak too.
4. [+116, -11] But when’s the second season?
5. [+160, -73] I’m all about respecting people having different opinions but I can’t stand attention wh*res who only hate on something because they think it makes them look cooler than everybody else… tsk tsk tsk
6. [+127, -60] In terms of entertainment value, ‘Squid Game’ is better. Time flew by while watching that… whereas ‘Hellbound’ took me a few days. It was only six episodes but I kept falling asleep..
7. [+61, -6] It’s watchable if you skip all the streamer parts. I don’t understand how nobody on the staff brought up how boring the streamer scenes were.
8. [+56, -2] I don’t get why the three gorillas have to throw you around for so long when they’re going to burn you to death anyway, seemed pointless
9. [+42, -0] ‘Hellbound’ is all about how much of the streamer scenes you can bear to get through
10. [+45, -8] The drama needs something that draws you in right from the beginning but there’s none of that. And the CG and the overacting from the streamer… it all makes it so hard to watch. You’re going to be disappointed if you go into it hoping for something entertaining like ‘Squid Game’. I had to quit after the first episode.
