    Prison Playbook

    ★★★★

    It's not bingeable that is why it took me a while to finish it. But good heavens the scenes and characters seem so realistic (except for some sanitized dramatic effect). Although not in South Korea, I had 10 months of experience inside a prison (got out in 2014)  so many scenes, characters, and dialogues are relatable to me. What a great writing!

    Having said that, this is really glorifying prisons and the justice system controlled by the bourgeoisie. I had to suppress that idea while watching this series.

    Quite entertaining. It would be nice to have a sequel. Is there?

    Sure talaga akong maaaliw sa dystopian scifi genre. Hunger Games, Divergent, The Maze Runner, ano pa ba? Syempre yung mas mauna na paborito kong Gattaca. Medyo konti na lang ang mga ganitong klaseng kwento ngayon.

    Parang ang mensahe ng nagsulat nito ay yung paparating na tunggalian ng US-UK versus China. Parang sinasabi niya na pabulusok na ang US imperialism at suicidal na ito, literally trampling on Europe as it confronts China head on.

    A must-watch for those who want to know more about the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster. I like how the story centered on the scientists, engineers, and other workers in the nuclear power plant, and how it shows the science workers' perspectives vis-a-vis those of politicians.
