This six-episode drama left us with our jaws on the floor and a million questions. We discuss theories about this mysterious world where people get beaten up and turned into crisp by sinister-looking "smoke monsters" or "executioners" at a pre-stated time if they've received a decree to die by a holographic face – what in actual f**k?

Big up to you for getting so far on this drama where everything happens yet nothing happens. Nevertheless, we had a good time searching for meaning in the 11.5 hours we spent watching this, with Shannon our very first guest on the show!
Spoiler: There is no meaning, Nevertheless...
Note: You might hear some noises in the background in this episode. They're the sounds of sense being drilled and knocked into Na Bi, and we apologise for that in advance.

This episode, we bring ourselves through two more torturous episodes of Nevertheless where we got more scenes of nothing happening, #SolJiwan crumbs and Na Bi's one brain cell in action.

We follow up with episodes 4-6 of Nevertheless, where the drama went downhill in a series of disappointing (lack of) character development and plotline. It is incredible how little we care for the main characters at this point #teamSolJiwan

We're closing off Navillera in this episode with some of our favourite highlights of the show and our picks for character MVPs, delivering more justice than Seong Gwan ever did to Grandpa with his home-docu.

We decided we've had enough mafia drama and cough interspecies romance cough, and opted for a touch of realism and feels by joining a 70-year-old grandfather and 23-year-old man in the pursuit of their ballet dreams.
Also, according to 'Living to 100', carrots are full of vitamin A and carotene, and plum tea is great when you have a cold.
