FINALES

✅ 08.13 NO WAY OUT: THE ROULETTE

thoughts…

I finally found “No Way Out: The Roulette” on HULU so I’ll be diving into that one just in time for the finale!

Premieres this week are not really ‘sparking my joy’ so I’ll probably use the time to get caught up on last week’s juggernaut premiere list.

Though I admit the set up for “Cinderella At 2AM” has me intrigued. She finds out her boyfriend of the past year and a half is actually a chaebol - of the company she works for, of course! - and breaks up with him because she doesn’t believe in fairy tales but he doesn’t want to let her go. Kinda digging this new twist on the old cliche…
