The Witch's Game (2022)

One of the worst's daily dramas that i ever seen

I really dont know how i managed to see the entire thing, but i guess that i was to late to drop when this had become a total train wreck.

After the mark of 80-ish episodes there was literally nothing new to the plot, the writers kept repeating the same thing over and over and over again.
First of all was the fact that almost every person of the cast was in prison once, it looked that they were going to their vacation house.
I still dont know how that company didnt went bankrupt, a stupid prosecutor was somehow fit to manage a entire company, i also lost count how many times the position of the chairman changed, scandals after scandals (including murder) but none of that left the company in ruins.
At some point i also didnt know who was daughter/ son of who cuz baby the way they be exchanging left me confused AF.
JH was a total looser that choose to cheat on a decent woman with another looser and both of them decided to be looseres together , the way this man was DELUSIONAL the entire drama is mind-blowing.
Made his daughter live with his mistress after attempting to kill his ex, but once HS was back and richer and ready to take her daughter back he somehow wanted them to be together again because he didnt want another man raising his daughter (the double standards), and of course he knew he more to gain if he married the biological heir.
And the fact that by the end writers tried to slip in there the fact that he was a good father......
Over all this was a huge mess and honestly i dont think it is worth the watching!

Blue-Eyes White Witch

Right from the first 8 minutes introduction they failed to.... no, just failed. The entire story's setup involving the kids was absurd even for a silly makjang. It quickly became apparent that the drama was attempting to do something different from other daily makjang but the execution was nothing but comical, even while adding hints of unintentional parody. I couldn't stand how the drama was structured with its storytelling, it was really tiring how every single key information had 3 layers of truths that kept throwing the blame onto 3 parties. It was really exhausting repeating the same pattern 30-40 times. There's a lot to be said while breaking down everything but I would be repeating myself so here are some random bits. I found it particularly cringe when characters called themselves and each others witches with nicknames, for example 'The White-Haired Witch'. Despite being the face of the drama, Yoo Kyung's lifelong revenge wasn't finalized due to some events which is disappointing. It felt like the male lead suddenly confessed his love with no proper build up or showing prior interest beyond some sympathy, it happened too early in the story even though he was a womanizer a couple of episodes ago. Moreover, the male lead was mostly useless and didn't play as big of a part as most of the other characters. Midway through he was just there wasting time while occasionally being an unfunny clown. I guess he was just there to give the female lead a hug every now and then. On the flip side, the other male lead, Ji Ho, was in every other scene more than any character in the drama. One last thing, the overall vibe and tone later on was very detached and different from the few first episodes (after the kids story setup). If I had to mention something positive other than the cinematography being up to the modern standard with the majority of projects, that would be how secrets don't linger for too long which is because of the aforementioned repeated pattern.
