Amusing, funny and has a great characters. I recommend to watch it.

Prison Playbook is a character-driven human comedy, warmly written and bolstered by stellar acting performances. The drama expertly navigates its audience through its spot on comedy as well as powerfully heartfelt moments. The drama succeeds in delving into the characters & the beautiful & melancholic storyline. Serene and hopeful, Prison Playbook is a magnificent drama.

The storyline is interesting - slice of life with dark humor. The characters are well developed and the actors do a good job making you empathize with their stories. -Lee Gyoo-hyeong, who plays the addict, is brilliant...and the bromance between the main actors makes you love them even more. :)

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this series! I'm watching it for a second time. I fell in love with each character even the guards. Their stories captivate you and help you see them in a different light than at first. I highly recommend it!

If you had told me five days ago that I would be this enthralled about a series revolving around a Korean professional baseball player on the brink of being signed by an American Major League team being sent to prison for assaulting a sexual predator, I would not have believed it. Yes, I am a Korean drama fan and knew this series was well received in Korea but had dragged my heels on watching it. Who knew that this series would be chockful of so many funny, heartbreaking, happy, sad and truly heart-tugging moments? Each of the main characters has a rich personality and you quickly find yourself emotionally wrapped up in their stories. Each episode is about an 1.5 hours long with 16 episodes so there was plenty of time to flesh out the stories and characters, whether the prisoners or their guards. Of course, we know it is far from what goes on in a real prison but the humanity and character depicted in this show leaves us with hope that we will look beyond the prison jumpsuit or the guard uniform to find the human inside. Watch it, you won't be disappointed!
