JTBC Code Episode 3 Review

Standard
Hi there. :)

Quick new update on this episode's rule: Players will enter 1 of the 4 rooms in pairs and every 30mins, they will switch to either adjacent rooms. Probably the best part of the episode because they had a woah moment, when the players realised that players who started in adjacent rooms will never get to meet each other in the following turns. O.o

Last Code: Players fire 2 shots at any other 3 players. Player with the most damage at the end, loses and "stay on the 6th floor". Simple, but with a very sad outcome, at least that's what I felt.
Why is it that so many (korean) shows on Tv feature way more males than females? Haiz, and while there are some girls that will try to come up with an alliance to keep them in the game, it is so sad to see Song Hyun kill off Yu Ri here... ):
Plus, some channels have had shows feature an all female cast do so well(reception and ratings)! ): Maybe someone should seriously consider having an all female cast on some games show, Hot Brain: Problematic Women** anyone? haha.

I am no expert in the demographic fields, so I shall jump to expressing my opinions on this show. I'd say Code is falling a little below expectations for me. :/ Yes, with every episode, the show is getting better, but there is something lacking in this particular one. I can't quite get what it is missing but probably some bad ass editing or games that are more out of the box? hahaha don't mind that pun. ^_・

For sure the improvement in this show is well appreciated. However, if you ever watch other game shows, especially Liar Game* and compare them, you are going to find that Code is a not that great of a substitute...

Alright, I will see you guys next week!
In the meantime, find me on twitter @raycherr!
