High School Ghost Story (2021)

Rating from a non-Teume

Firstly, I accidentally discovered this show on YouTube during the release of Episode 2. After that, I've been following the weekly releases of the show.

Story:

At first, I was disappointed because the show already revealed the ghost in episode 3. However, the show is not a mystery show about who's the ghost because it was clear that Haruto is the ghost.

I gave 9/10 because some aspects were missed. Like, who's the reason for the teacher's accident? Who's the ghost or what's that bad aura that gives Junhyuk nightmares? Or what's the cause of that bird's crash in early episodes?

These questions were minor aspects of the show yet these questions make the show interesting at the start since they gave me reasons root for answers. Sadly, they weren't answered. Or I certainly missed them?

Anyway, the story is good and entertaining.

EDIT: There are cookie videos (exclusive videos) that are not available on YT viewers. There's a link on the comment below.

Acting/Casting:

As a non-fan, it was difficult for me to learn their names at first. Believe me or not, I've watched Ep 1-4 many times just so I could memorize their names. And for that reason, I appreciate the acting of each member.

Although some members don't have lines, at least the acting was commendable. Examples in mind would be Asahi and Yoshi. No explanation.

For Haruto, the main character. I have to applaud. Also, I love Hyunsuk, Junkyu, Jeongwoo, Junghwan, Junhyuk, and Dooyoung's acting.

Plus, the side character: the Homeroom teacher, and the two boys from the other section. I like their acting as well. They helped the show progress.


Music:

I like BFF (Best Friends Forever) soundtrack and the last song, I don't know the title. The final scene's OST made me sob. It was heart-wrenching.

The scoring and sound effects are also effective.


Rewatch Value:

Well, I've said it already. I've been rewatching the show multiple times.


Conclusion:

From a non-fan, it was a great experience. Though, I haven't heard TREASURE's whole discography—I only heard their title tracks, which are good btw—I finally learned all their names and their acting skills. Maybe in the future, I'll check other songs from them.

Made my Teume heart happy!

TREASURE is the best! You should totally this if you are a Treasure Makers (Teume) or even if you're not. If you want to stan them and also want to memorize the members names, watching this drama is a great way to do that.

Story: [I tried not to spoil it but don't worry it's just a minor spoiler]
The story was great and every episode, you would suspect different members. That's why it's great because it will make you think who really is the ghost? (Even though it was soo obvious and was revealed that the ghost is _____ in Ep. 3, it will still make you have doubts if he is really the ghost) Also, the ghost' story was really sad and everything he had been through was also sad. Even though not everything has been cleared, it was still a great story. It also taught us that friendship is really important, like how the ghost disappeared when everyone ignored him and how he has back because his friends stand up for him

Acting/Cast:
They are amazing and talented idols and now they are great actors. Ever since I watched It's Okay, That's Friendship (Treasure 1st drama since debut), I wanted to see more of their acting. They weren't perfect that time since it was their first time but now they've improved a lot. YG be making their artists into great actors/actresses.

Music:
Their OST BFF is really amazing. Even it wasn't promoted but it's topping the charts, it shows how great it is. Choi Hyunsuk wrote the lyrics and he deserves to be called one of the best lyricist.

Rewatch Value:
Since it's not that long, You can binge watch or rewatch it anytime since it's only 2.6 hours. Totally recommend you this short web drama. You can rewatch it if you still haven't memorize the members yet.
