1. [+1,942, -184] Ah... I enjoyed 'The Silent Sea'...

2. [+1,088, -54] I enjoyed it. Isn't it fine to not always be #1 all the time?? Isn't starting off at 7th not bad too? When are we going to stop pressuring everyone to either rank #1 or call it a failure...

3. [+650, -43] I enjoyed it. There's no rule that says all Korean shows must do as well as 'Squid Game'. It's a sci-fi show so there were bound to be people that either hate it or love it. I was impressed that our country had come so far as to create shows of this genre now too. The CG wasn't awkward at all and it was really well made! Don't hate on the show if you have nothing nice to say about it.

4. [+385, -70] I personally didn't enjoy 'Squid Game' or 'Hellbound'... only watched it because everyone around me went crazy over it..

5. [+237, -78] I fell asleep while watching it..

6. [+118, -4] 'The Silent Sea' really drew me in~ I watched it all in one sitting.. more than anything, the plot was about something that could really happen to our earth in the future.. so it made me sad too.

7. [+73, -3] I was impressed that Korea could produce an SF show of this quality

8. [+71, -4] Wow, I guess it was different for everyone. I really enjoyed it. The first two episodes were a bit slow but it really started picking up after that.

9. [+73, -16] I think the director has a lot more work to do. The editing was awkward and the scenes and scenarios were similar to things we've already seen in international space movies. It's the worst out of all the Netflix shows for me this year.

10. [+62, -6] I enjoyed this more than 'Hellbound'

11. [+55, -4] There are so many terrible shows on Netflix, how can anyone dare call this one the worst? It's currently ranked #7 which is not too bad at all. Since when were we so used to everything ranking #1 no matter what anyway?

12. [+47, -2] It's a great show. Stop comparing works and trying to rank them against each other.

13. [+41, -2] If the only thing that mattered was ranking #1 and the entire public liking it, then we would never create works of diversity and niche. 

14. [+32, -2] I loved it?

15. [+30, -3] I liked it better than 'Squid Game'. I'm surprised that our country was able to produce a sci-fi movie of this quality and it really did a great job of drawing me in.
