Review of SKY Castle

SKY Castle (2018–2019)
10/10
Well rounded dark satirical drama
13 April 2020
Don't be fooled by the promotional posters/images - this is not your average rich housewives drama. It tackles sensitive issues such as mental health, exam stress (education system), parental expectations and relationship within families. Characters are varied, unique and develop well through the course of the show. At its core, it is about how parents grow up to truly understand what is important in life. However there's a lot more to it.

Things I liked:
  • Great storytelling
  • Interesting main characters (along with stupendous acting) and fantastic synergy between all characters
  • Moments of humor sprinkled throughout the show to counter-balance the serious moments
  • Every episode ends with a cliffhanger that leaves you restless to see what happens next


Things I didn't like:
  • Episode count could have been a bit lower (however this doesn't take anything away from the brilliant storytelling)


Start watching now and thank me later!
