This Drama started really well with the unexpected/funny plot , I was instantly hooked. It had a great and well balanced combination of comedy , action drama & romance. This acting is just perfect with Lee Jong Suk killing it. However, I guess there is a limit to creativity! The plot took an unexpected turn and just kept getting weirder and weirder til it almost made no sense anymore (even in the drama context)!.
the last few episodes were plain boring and it felt like they were just dragging the story.
It wasn't horrible , but very disappointing compared to its beginning. I recommend this to anyone who is interested in a 100% original & unique story but it's best not to watch it with high expectations.

Honestly , I do not recommend this drama to anyone looking for something fun/new to watch. I personally watched it because it had high ratings so I had many expectations from it but I ended up highly disappointed. Prison Playbook was very hard to get into for me. The beginning was extremely stretched out and I was really close to dropping it many times but the characters  were so lovable that I couldn't drop it even though I wanted to.
This drama's strongest point is the relationship between the characters and how it evolved. Seeing the characters bonding was very touching. Unfortunately, that's about it. There are no interesting events happening , no surprises , nothing else to keep the person watching interested. I know for a fact that if I watched this drama while it was still ongoing , I would have dropped it as it's merely a narration of events. The ending was very disappointing for me as there was no closure, just a typical korean drama ending. I still gave it a 6/10 because the acting was just so brilliant and touching that by the end , I felt connected to characters of the show.

This is a light romance that starts out really sweet and cute but eventually becomes a bit boring..
The slow pace that seemed to me like the drama's strongest point at first ended up becoming its weakest..
I really enjoyed the first episodes a lot, the romance was very cute and realistic and it didn't have most of the cliché scenes, I also really appreciated how they weren't too dramatic but instead had a realistic and warm approach to the main couple's relationship. However, that was it.. there was no real story, nothing to keep me interested in watching the rest of the drama. The lack of events made me lose interest rather quickly and I ended up relying on the FF button A LOT..
The only reason I kept watching was because the actors did a phenomenal job with their acting and I just wanted to watch THEM.. their performance really was great and it made me unable to drop the drama..
Basically, if you wanna watch something light that's good for killing some time without any emotional investment, then this is a good drama for that..

It's so unrealistic and too forced. It starts off really well with an unexpected plot twist, however, the rest of it feels unnatural. They just kept dragging the story on and on , and even the following 'plot twists' weren't that much of plot twists. I personally found it extremely annoying and I wouldn't recommend this to anyone looking for something interesting, fresh and new. This drama is ALL the cliché scenes , overused scenarios and predictable twists in one show.
That aside , the cast is GREAT. Even though the characters they played are irritating, they did an amazing job conveying their emotions and feelings.
Overall , I really didn't enjoy this drama , but rather, I kept wishing for it to end or at least for something interesting to happen and I was highly disappointed.
If you're really new to dramas you might enjoy this, if not It's better not to watch this.

I saw the cast and I immediately started watching .. I was instantly hooked! the plot was really interesting and I couldn't stop watching but that only lasted for a few eps.. soon enough, it reverted to the usual drama you find in EVERY k-drama! it turned predictable and the ending(not sure I can even call it that) was a huuuge let down.
Nonetheless, it was a good watch (most k-dramas don't have a good ending anyways :p ) ! the acting was really nice and it has some cool scenes.
I'm not saying it's bad , it's just a bit disappointing compared to the trailer and the first few episodes. so if you're watching this , don't have any high hopes. It's still really enjoyable and somehow interesting.

This Drama is very light-hearted and cheerful. It made me smile as I kept watching and I didn't think it was boring at any point. The plot twists are interesting because the drama keeps misleading you throughout the episodes and it has a lot of funny moments.
I'm not usually into Romcoms because of all the Clichéd/repetitive scenes we see everywhere , but one of this drama's strong points is that it didn't do that ( a lot ). If anything the romance was cute and warm and all the characters were lovable.

The only thing I didn't like was how 80% of the events were a coincidence. There are way too many coincidental events which made the drama drift away from reality and a bit annoying for me to be honest.

It gets more and more interesting by each episode.
the acting is amazing , not the best drama ever , but has its own great points. it's also very touching! If anyone is looking for a drama with an interesting plot , this drama is definitely the one.
what I really loved about this drama is that the story is realistic , not like classic dramas with super nice/good/caring main lead , they're just normal people that can be bad and make mistakes.
and even though it has a serious plot , there's plenty of comedy. the acting is also great.

The ending is sort of predictable, but the story line isn't.
