Short but could have been better

So after seeing the preview of this drama, I honestly thought this was going to be a really Wow drama, but Nope all I got was a short drama with 8 episodes and each 10 minute long which for me was a real disappointment.

The story was just boring. Nothing happened. In the span of 8 episodes, not a single thing happened. The whole show can be boiled down to this: a new guy joins a restaurant and creates an overly dramatic love triangle that would never happen in real life.

There is literally nothing for me to say about this drama, accept the music was not so bad, and he sort of went well with scenes however they could have expanded on the story and made it a bit more realistic, it definitely had so much potential, but it just felt like so false and boring.

The actors were not so bad, so there is that, but again they charcters lacked growth and chemistry. The whole love triangle was there, but what got me so annoyed was the confession and the guy didn't correct any of the misunderstanding that happened to the friendship, which may I add was 15 years, that to me came across like he was playing both friends against each other.

Overall: basically just watch this drama if you have nothing better to do and need to kill time.

True life love story...

This drama real,y touched on a little about everything that goes in every day life.

I thought the actors did a phenomenal job. The conveyed there emotions very well, there was no awkwardness at all, i could feel there love for each other. For only 4 episodes i felt they really did a fantastic job, of keeping to the story, it flowed through really well and time and age clock you were able to see how they progressed and grew together, for me personally I would have love to see yuki not give in so easily to akira and let him try to feel his pain of what he went through, guess love does conquer all.

The story wa3 fantastically portrayed. I loved the concept of showing sign8ficant timesand events from different periods of their lives.

The music was not that good but it was listenable.

In the end everyone has they own life to live, no matter how they choose to live it, and with who ever they choose to. Society famiky and friends shoukd not have say and for me the guilt trip that parents in general throw at there children to live a certain way is so very wrong.

Overall this drama was really awesome

Wasted Screen time

Oh my goodness what on earth did I just watch?

These 3 episodes and screen time was a real bloody waste of time, despite the fact the Mean (aka 2) was in there, and partly the reason I watched it .

This show is utter chaos! What happened? All the characters I loved, all the basic traits and connections between characters etc. were destroyed. There was/is no consistency with this show in pretty much any regards to the 'parent' shows, the characters, or even just as you watch the show itself (disregarding all your previous knowledge of the characters and past shows; watching it as a new show itself) it is all over the place and gives me a literal headache.

Each of these the couples could have avoided a whole lot of wasted time if they just sat down and talked, this drama was based on one big bloody Misunderstanding!!!!

Deception .... Heartbreaking.... Enjoyable....

I totally loved this drama, not only for the two main hot leads, but the fact they showed how each of them grew from the first series (together with me).

The story line is isn't your typically BL dramas, and people apparently can't handle that. No, it isn't lighthearted and easygoing like other series out there; but it's raw and authentic and definitely deserves its worth. The actors here are fantastic as always, and the writing is not terrible like some are making it out to be; clearly something's working because it's doing what a good story is supposed to do: it's making people react, it's evoking emotions. I did have mixed emotions, on the whole cheating lifestyle of farm and rit story, but after sticking to my guns and pursed on, Farm and Bright's story (which is essentially Farm giving Bright a taste of his own medicine), this isn't true. Both Yihwa and Korn (the two "cheaters") are placed in situations that test their feelings and relationships. Korn's is induced by mounting pressure from his conservative, overbearing father to denounce his homosexuality and the strain this puts on his relationship with Knock (which causes them to fight about other little things as well), while Yihwa finds herself being seduced by her senior and boss. They're conflicted and act out of moments of weakness. Korn has ONE sexual encounter with his boss during a night of drinking and commiserating. Yihwa, beginning to feel conflicted and confused about her feelings towards Cho in light of the flirtatious attention from her boss, decides to take a break from both and figure herself out. And that's it!

Personnel I think each of these characters story line and how they played out was really good, it showed how each individual dealt with there problems, and how all stood together when times hit rock bottom, especially Fai she never wavered away despite her strong opion on cheating and deception. Korn and Knock story was really strong, although he cheated on his partner he was remorseful and regretted what he did, which showed his love and commitment to him, I found the parents really funny though and they did add a bit of lightness to the drama. Yihwa, who made it seem like she ended cheating, felt bad for own deceitful, but to how her friend did it.

MUSIC: I don't have much to say about the music and I really loved the fact that they used the soundtracks from the previous seasons too, especially from Bad Romance <3 It made it easier to take the feel of that moment. I can't say that I loved all the songs but they did suite the moment when it was playing.

REWATCH VALUE: I would 100% rewatch these series just for the sake of having fun or when I feel bad to make my day better and care more about their problems rather than mine.

OVERALL: I really enjoyed these series and I and really sad that so many people dropped hem in the middle just because they didn't get the classic lovey-dovey BL series they were expecting for. But then again, this is so much more interesting than just another cheesy series where everything is rainbows and sweetness. It's not like that in real life and it nice to take something with you from the series as a life lesson :)

The Melody of The Heart in Soul ...

Going into this movie without a lot of knowledge, left me reluctant to watch, but I went ahead and watched it regardless.

For me it started kind of slow, and it took a while to get into it, biggest thing to say is that the movie both portrayed our male leads , rising singer Kang In Soo ( playing himself ) and novice producer Yoo Sang yi ( Lee Sang) ‘s relationship in a refreshingly less cliche way than previous same-sex pairings in Korean productions - not through their sexuality, but through Sang Yi’s journey in making sense of his genuine feelings for Kang In Soo over the course of the movie. It was an undeniably sweet and modern love story for our two male leads , yet nonetheless sugarcoated in favor of avoiding more difficult issues.

First of all it is important to say that whilst this wasn’t the main aim of the movie to home-in on a “ realistic” relationship and certain, Kang In Soo and Lee Sang were brilliant within their portrayals echoing a certain level of heartache and emotion behind their performances. Their characters were also evidently Kang In Soo was set out to be the “ mysterious” and “ handsome” musician, whilst Lee Sang acted as the “ awkward” and “ kind-hearted” producer. Yet apart from these roles and their evident relationship onscreen, their characters often felt lacking in greater depth.

Overall: This probably won't be everyone’s cup of tea, but it was a surprisingly sweet and progressive love story, like I mentioned I watched it without any prior knowledge. brilliant acting from our male leads.

Music made this drama ....

First off the soundtrack in this drama was so amazing and really awesome, I loved the main song.

Goblin has just made my favorites list, the cinematography was gorgeous, the music was amazing, the actors were perfect, The story will make you laugh and make you cry. Not only is the love story epic, but so is the bromance between Goblin and Reaper. I've found that I'm quite fond of this fantasy genre and this has been done so well. I have hardly any criticisms of this show at all because even the flaws faded into nothing noticeable for me. It's sweet, funny, romantic, sad, tragic, beautiful...

Goblin is a great drama. I went into it with low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised, or more accurately, I was blown away. You can recognize a good drama by the way it makes you feel exactly what the characters in the drama are feeling. That's the way Goblin was for me, with each character, I laughed and I cried.

The actors do a superb job. I could feel their emotions from across the screen. then again, nothing less to be expected from such a spectacular cast.
-The drama has everything, ranging from bromance, romance to mystery and suspense.
-The bromance is spectacular. One of the most epic bromance I've ever seen in a Kdrama. It made me laugh a lot, but it also had its heartwarming and heart-wrenching moments. Goblin and Grim Reaper's relationship is one of the best reasons to pick this up. The two couples- Goblin & Eun Tak and Grim Reaper & Sunny. Both couples had their own story. The sweet and cute moments of the Goblin couple & the sizzling chemistry between Grim Reaper and Sunny was enough to keep the 'romance' meter of the drama pretty high. You won't be able to get enough of the cuteness of Goblin & Eun Tak.
-The mystery of the characters. From 'the lady in red' to the king and queen, each episode just gave enough glimpse into their lives to keep us engrossed. It'll drive you crazy in a good way.
-Each minute of every episode was enjoyable. I didn't skip a single moment of any episode.
-The unexpectedness of the drama was really great. Just when you'd think you had something figured out, some twist would come along and surprise you. The writer sure did a tremendous job.

BONUS: Beautiful and addictive OST

I LOVED this drama! Do give this one a chance, you won't be disappointed. Once you start it, chances are, you'll end up loving it. Happy Watching!

Beautiful

Finally the big day....

This was a really beautiful wedding the build up to it, the excitement of Tharn and the hidden excitement of Type was really cute and smile worthy watching.

I loved how they touched back on there first encounters and the challenges they went through together, and then how they came to be where they ended up.

I really enjoyed how this episode revolves 90% around Thanrtype as it should. Their story was wrapped up with a bow on top. It was really emotional seeing them finally getting married after two seasons of watching them grow together.

A really good ending to this series.

Funny and Excellent..

I really loved the third season of this series, I preferred this one to the first two.

What I loved about this was at least it picked up where it left off, so we got to see how they went back, also the original song was kept, I just feel that this song is iconic to this these three series.

Well as for the Main couples, as always they did not disappoint, there chemistry is so real and they work really well, I love the pairing of these two. But OMG the double play of the FL was extraordinary, from the playful taner to the more serious queen, was performed really well, and the costumes throughout the whole series were amazing, on both the ML and FL, they were wore amazing outfits.

The ML was really good as well, and he captured a lot of detailed expression. he portrayed his character really nicely and did a terrific job at it. These two are amazing together, hope to see them again very soon.

Overall this series was excellent hats off to everyone who contributed and made this drama.

Intriguing

Wow this is first time i so enjoyed a drama of this many episodes,

I so loved the pace of this drama it literally kept you watching and intriguing. The story line was a bit different and the characters were nothing much but exceptional, they played they part so well.

It had everything in it love, hate, vengeance, greed, revenge, you name it this drama delivered. The setting was really good and the way they loved stood the test of time and every single difficult moment together.

I did find it a bit annoying that no matter how much trouble the sisters went through to get rid of weiyoung yhey failed bit somehow they so blinded by they own greed that could not accept they wrongdoing.

Although the ending was not what I expected. She did come out stronger than ever.

Overall a good watch and well paced, no dragging or reapting of dialogues.

TOXIC

I so look forward to this drama ... but dam i was not expecting the toxic abuse that it going portray.
What I imagined was a slightly adult drama. What I got was a hot mess and not in a good way. Dark yes, but, again, not in a good way, actually very problematic. Not gritty and not adult, but your typical college BL with typical first world problems, an overpacked plot and very little substance. In short, a disappointment.

Both men were actually not normal, for me from the start when he drugged the man i should have known that this drama was heading down the wrong way ... it just literally went down hill from there. then we had a cheating scena and he gets caught but some how they end up back together.

the whole backwards and forwards was just a non starter.

Overall: just watch for the sake of it and nothing else?

Not much to even say .....

I wish I could give this more stars, but I just can't. The only reason its even that high is because of Ashing and Mangkorn. In which I am currently watching them in Between Us!!!

The plot was super confusing and made almost no sense, there was just so many side plots and so many other stories that needed to be told, but because of the short 6 episode i do think it was difficult ...

The only thing for me that was really nice was the island they shot on, wow it looked obsoletely beautiful (name of island which i had known) the visuals on the island was breath taking.

Overall by the time the series ended, it felt like none of the plotlines were properly wrapped up, and I think the series would have benefited a lot from either being simply longer or just straight up cutting some plotlines and characters, 'cause the set up was far too elaborate to execute properly in six episodes.
