Review on Celebrity

Celebrity is a Netflix series that was released about 2 weeks ago and has caused a major buzz on social media platforms and is currently trending among the top 10 Kdramas of 2023

Celebrity takes a look at the real life of E-celebs commonly known as influencers which hold as much power as public figures in today’s world.

Now that we’re done with the formalities, shall we ?

This drama and the hype is uncalled for and once again I’m suspecting nonkdrama fans for this .

There was a scene where a maid took off the ml’s shoes while he was walking and in my opinion was what caused the entire social media buzz .

The scene looked very dramatic in edits but in the actual series, it was bland

The drama honestly could’ve been a movie and would’ve been more impactful .
They were just turning around in circles like clowns and the fl/narrator kept repeating herself .

Too much of everything is bad. They tried to create so much suspense but at the end of the day, they failed to hit climax .

The series lacked proper pacing . They dragged the bickering between the gabin society and the fl for too long.
Despite having 12 episodes, they still found a way to rush the ending which didn’t make any sense to me . They had so much time but ended up leaving too many loopholes and unanswered questions.

The love between the ml and fl was just silly with no back bone but their kiss scene was nice .

Additionally, the fl has a false sense of righteousness which I think stems from her pride .
She’s not a good person.

I’ll be stopping here as I don’t want this review to contain spoilers.

Is this series overrated? Yes
Will I recommend it to others ? Perhaps
Is it a series that I will remember in future ? Very unlikely
