The more you watch, the less sense it has

The show started well: there was some action, reasoning behind the monsters' arrival and a presentation of the weird cult with a creepy leader... and then it went south. I think that it is sad that the potential of this drama was completely ruined by the lack of reasoning behind everyone's actions. Everything started to make less and less sense, and by the end of the show, it was extremely annoying to watch the characters make any decisions.
The "streams" of one of the church's fanatics were obnoxious and I think they did not add much to the story, except for the "plot twist" at the end, which was very predictable.
Overall I wouldn't recommend this show to any fan of Kdramas, but I may use it to warn someone about the possible outcomes of religious fanaticism,

Waste of time

In the beginning, I thought that the first episode was okay, but I was waiting for the characters to develop and the plot to become more interesting. However, it did not work for me that way.
The characters are bland, the acting is very stiff and did not make me feel any emotion other than annoyance. (especially Nayeon who was extremely irritating from the beginning) The main character even if she is showing some 'range' of emotions, I could not feel the emotions with her.
I did not find one character that could be likeable in this show, other than Chung San's mother. All of the characters in this series are extremely stupid... like: "we have a good place to hide - let's go somewhere else now!". The ones who survived managed to do this only by luck and (unnecessary) sacrifice of others.
This show was (in my opinion) exhausting to watch.

Sarawat - a star of the show

Although I did not think that finding a boyfriend (when you are a straight male) just to make a gay friend stop chasing after you makes any sense whatsoever, I quite enjoyed this drama. It started off in a weird way, but as it progressed it attracted me even more and I was curious what would happen next. The next weird thing for me was that basically everyone was considered "hot" except for Tine... though he is crazy hot.
The biggest disappointment of this show was the littlest amount of chemistry between the main characters. I know that Tine was not gay at the beginning of the show, but he eventually turned out to be interested in Sarawat, so I cannot understand why he was acting so weird when they were in a real relationship. On the other hand, the guy who played Sarawat did a great job and he made me believe that he was head over heels for Tine, but the part that S knew all this time that Green had a boyfriend and that he planned most of the things that happened was a bit creepy for me.
The music in this drama was really catchy and I still play the soundtrack over and over again. A huge plus for the actors who sung live in this show (e.g. Bright - Sarawat) and for the video on YT that proves that - the one that Sarawat recorded on his phone for the music club.

Intriguing

Meteor Garden (2018) was the first drama I've watched and it will always have a special place in my heart. That is why I decided to watch F4 Thailand and by now I am not disappointed.

This version is way more violent than the Chinese one, but I think it is a good thing because it shows how much power the boys held over the school and how people were easily made to be hateful and aggressive towards their peers. That will help us understand the leads further in the story.

The actors seem to be cast perfectly for their roles. Bright as Thyme is scary AF and Ren is gentle but reserved. The actress who plays Gorya is incredibly talented and can portray her character well.

For now I really enjoy this drama and I can't wait to see the rest of the episodes!
