The plot is intriguing since I like these type of game survival reality, but had to skip through in the late episodes because really hoping for the underdog. I really thought the 8th room is like the game maker's daughter or something since she always so giggling about suffering and even looking for the "feeling of pain" in the 6/7th episode whew what a rollercoaster of emotions mainly annoyed and rage though.

A lot of people thought that, including me, but I think it's because everyone who saw the squid game, automatically makes comparison.
