Yesterday I finished " Kingdom" and was pretty disturbed by it and next thing I know I'm watching another Korean thriller equally dark and disturbing! I've come to the conclusion that the Koreans are masters in dark thrillers and comedies!
Mask Girl will draw in all the people who ever suffered bullying and wished they could fight back but don't!
It also shows that no matter what , even getting plastic surgery to be more beautiful doesn't take away your troubles because your mind is still unchanged!
In these social media times we are in now the pursuit of perfection it relentless and destroying our young people!
The first episode is the starting point that leads into others becoming darker and darker ( and bloodier) while we are emphasizing with the characters. At times I'm having troubles telling the protagonists apart because they look so alike which is also a reminder to me of how alike and monotonous beauty images are on line and in the media nowadays!
The actors are very good in portraying pain, fear and misery ! Many of us have been in that dark place including me and therefore I understand the premise of this story ( to a certain extent of course but the violence and payback makes it more fun)!
I'm watching with original audio and English subtitles which makes it more authentic! I've become so good at doing this that I rarely Miss anything!
Highly recommend this series! A word of caution: the assault scenes are not for the faint of heart but are portrayed very truthfully!
