Reception[edit]
Carmen Chin from NME awarded the series 4 out of 5 stars. She described the documentary as "particularly refreshing".[5] Kim Sang-hwa, writing for OhMyNews, said "as a long-awaited K-pop documentary, it was worth watching" and it can be enjoyed regardless if the viewer is a fan of the band. However, he criticised the show's pacing, saying "it is a pity that the development of the second [episode], which covers the rest of the period, loses its center".[6]
