All the promotion has actually put me off the show.

There are so many tie-ins and promos from multi-million dollar corporations that ignore the themes of the show. Buy a McDonald’s meal and get a dalgona candy! Are YOU up to the challenge? Don’t think about the people in the show who failed the challenge and got shot in the face for the crime of being poor. Also don’t think about our billions in profits as the price of a happy meal continues to rise.

I don’t know if I can trust the show to carry a strong message when it is tied to so much bullshit.
