OK. A series about idol politicians. I was amazed about how it actually deals with politics... somewhat... somehow... in its own warped way. Depicts idols as champions of democracy and liberal populism, fighting against a large, powerful, conservative and sometimes even fascist party. What can I say? Fans living in undemocratic countries may find it either insulting or delightful.
Regardless, I think it may be somewhat underrated. Despite the silly and over the top background, the series has a not so bad plot and a likeable protagonist. And, it actually has far less fanservice than one may think. Overall, a decent watch, but kinda hard to recommend because of its rather unique (and weird) idol-politics mix. Guess it is OK for letting time pass.
