Reviews

Just finished the first episode. I have to say, the actual series is way better than the pilot trailer. The acting of Ben is way less cringe and more refreshing inbthe actual series. Man actually fits his character quite perfect. He has that professional strict boss who is not an asshole vibe to him. I didn't really have high hope for this series as I didn't enjoy cutiepie the series much. As zee's character seems like a perverte and nunew's acting was rather cringe. And let's be honest, the story of cutie pie the series was one of the worst. Officie romance is hard enough to find on the Thai BL industry. I have read many good bl stories with wider and various range of plot. Age gap doesn't always work. Unless the plot supports it well and the actors portrait it nicely. But the age gap between Pat and Jeng actually somewhat works better here. Can't wait to watch more...

I love this.

I already love this series, and Boun and Prem have SUCH good chemistry together, aaaaahh!!!!!! I have been waiting to watch this series since I first saw them togetherr in Until We Meet Again, for six months noew, and finally here it iss!!!!!! I was not disappointed, however, the music, it is always the same, so like, I would love to see some new music, even though it is good . Also, in the first episode, I get why they show Pharm and Dean, but you know, maybe show a little bit less.

I wished New Wongsakorn & Nut Devahastin had their roles EXCHANGED

I also don't know why was Yard Yardthip hired in this one, because she is actually the same type as Ploy and many scenes she is visually too similar to her. The story goes that we have a woman experiencing loss and heartbreak, betrayed by everyone she ever trusted. It's not a cheerful story, so it's kinda important what we have here to balance it up and I'm afraid that 39 year old New Wongsakorn was not enough eyecandy to cheer me up here, lol.

This lakorn was a bit difficult to enjoy. I had to watch Nut Devahastin in yet another sleazy-bad-guy role (why the hell do they cast HIM as that??) he seems cursed with since after 'Ngao Asoke' (where he beat the lead guy to dust). Also, there were many scenes of two femmes fighting (over a guy at that... where is their pride?) who looked almost the same (Yard & Ploy obviously shared the same hairdresser and make-up artist) which looked ridiculous, especially given they were in their THIRTIES (I think PHYSICAL fighting belongs to SCHOOL dramas at the most, lol). Was it really THAT fundamental which one of them would the guy choose?

After mere 4 episodes I got tired with this and decided to move on to another lakorn.

boring

this drama is total rubbish... "tvN" advertises in addition to figuring out what to do with it, "Graduation" the story of a former student returns to the academy as an adult, still seduced by his former teacher.

Are they making a big deal about their age difference??
this drama is reminiscent of other dramas like "hello my teacher" which is much less boring, with the character of Gong Yoo who falls in love with his teacher and who is much younger and the age difference is almost similar, is it that serious, it's not a crime.. ????

The first episode is boring, slow, long dialogues and actors overact, and are not credible, personally I would not continue this evening sorry it's a waste of time, there are better dramas to watch...

Watched for Lee Da Hee

Lee Da Hee and Kim Nam Gil are great actors, KNG especially. Watched this because I was bored and the synopsis sounded interesting.

Story
Nothing great or amazing. Entertaining enough but even at episode 4, I feel like I still have many questions. I think this one is more about the action................ though it's not super action-packed either. Meh.

Acting
As mentioned LDH and KNG are there haha. Side characters are familiar faces soooo great. I have to say though, Cha Eun Woo's acting improved HAHA. At least he's showing more natural expressions........

Music
I like the intro! OSTs are appropriate.

Rewatch value
nah idts. I don't see myself rewatching this.

simply amazing

I’ve been watching kdramas for about 3 years and when I tell you I literally just made an MDL account last week just so I could review this drama. I'd stopped watching dramas set in high school but decided to give this a try 'cos I didn’t have anything else to watch. I didn't expect it to be this good and emotional. I thought it would be a surface-level high school drama but it’s so much deeper than that. It’s about finding the will to keep living even when it seems like your whole world is falling apart because if you choose to live one more day, things will get better. By only episode 2, I could already tell this was gonna be my favorite drama of all time.

This might be the worst drama I've ever watch. I tried watching the drama twice and both times I can't seem to pass the annoyance of the first episode.

From the first episode, there was plot holes left and right....... Basically the girl is loud and outspoken, and assumes that she's always right and whatnot. The boy, who became the CEO and the landlord of the girl's house, is a coward who just lets the girl yell at him, because the girl assumes she is always right. That made no sense whatsoever to the boy's characteristic, the scene before he was telling his employees he will fire anyone who's having office romance in his company, and threatened a worker that if he propose to another girl than he can look for another job. The next scene the main character girl is yelling at him, and he basically says nothing, then compares his company to a country, the girl disagreed and started arguing with him again...PLOTHOLES...if the main character guy was as cold as the actor portray him in the scene before, he would have fired that girl already. Doesn't make any sense to allow the girl continue yelling at him.
This is just one of the many plotholes I found within the first episode.
Another one...
Girl: I saw him in my house today telling me he's the new landlord and now I see him in my workplace, he must be a
stalker, even though I know there will be a new boss TODAY, cause there's no such thing as coincidence
Me(watching): &(@^$%%&@*$ &^$(@&$^ @)($*@9$& *$&%*#

I'm not sure if the reason that I hate this drama is due to the bad script or bad acting, but in order to have an enjoyable drama, you need both, and this drama might have neither.
BTW I understand chinese but I still turned on english sub because I can't read chinese (and I need sub in order to take in anything). SO I will say this (base on the subs on netflix), the subs do not translate how f@cc*** dumb the way the main character girl speaks and from where I dropped the show the main character boy barely talked.

FROM WHAT I CAN SEE, THE FISH WAS THE BEST PART OF THE DRAMA, JUST BECAUSE IT WAS CUTE AND THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE BETTER.

Painful Writing

I realise this is from an old novel so I can't really say this had potential knowing that but, yeah, I feel this had potential. My western thought processing clashed terribly with this. I knew I was going to drop this on the second episode.
The pacing is painful. There are a lot of more exciting/creative ways to have summarized the beginnings of the plot. Nope. We're made to walk the story, inch by inch. I sat with my head in my hands realising why it's 40 episodes.

Side note - The father/twin, what did they do to this man's face. He felt like a robot and honestly made to look like one. Was he meant to be structured and porcelain white ? and instead ended up looking a face of flour with 2016 insta eyebrows. But perhaps that's my agitation talking. The actor is good looking. The father clearly was meant to be a heart throb. I did not see it.

Case in point - I absolutely hate love triangles and the big bad is jealous sisters, so either way, this Cassanova was effed from the start because even if he fell for a sister, the other sister would still be scorned. No wonder the poor guy ran away. These women are just delusional psychos and I hate seeing women pitted against each other for silly reasons. If there is a legitimate reason for this hate, I don't have the patience to find out.
I have no pity for pathetic villains. Meanwhile, the other villains were just straight up goofy and stupid.
I hated everyone on this show.
The women are just a misogynistic tragedy to watch and the male characters are just stupid and unreasonable.
I made it to episode 12 simply because of the lead. I was really enjoying his impish wits and heart of gold moments. I love intelligent characters who can think themselves out of a problem, until I caught the scent of putting him in a love triangle with his robot of a brother, who is trying to kill simply because he was told to. What?
I wanted to punch the FL (at least she is by episode 12) She came in with a lot of badass potential and as soon as she's dressed in pink, she's turned into a simpering, floundering brat who was thoroughly enjoying playing the lead's feelings because, hehe, he's jealous. No. Just no.
That's when I knew I wasn't going to make it through this series. I skipped right to the last episode for the conclusion and very thankful that I didn't waste my time.

I cant call this garbage, because I think garbage would be insulted by that

This is one of the most ugliest, horniest and thinnest plot that I have EVER come across in my entire journey as a fijoushi. Absolutely no plot. The characters are horny all the time. I mean it, they are horny ALL the time. I dont think that is physically possible but that's a thought to be pursued for yet another day.

I started watching the first episode where the first 20 minutes was either about guys jerking off, talking ablout sex or doing sex. Literally, they did this for 20 minutes. of course with 3 minute scenes here and there that make you feel like there is a plot, but naah, its just a bait for them to showcase more sex or sexual-connoted scenes.

you feel like you are watching porn at some point - some scenes are so bloody unrealistic that you wonder if the screenwriter was horny and decided to put all his fantasies to the written word and publish it as a script. Really, the Kama Sutra does a gross disservice to its image as a sex book. I think this series really provides good competition.

please consider this situation. you want to ask directions to a stranger ( a complete, random, unkno stranger, mind you). Even if you were a model ( and taking into consideration the stereotype that models are generally promiscuous, even though they might not be IRL ) would you go and stand so close to a stranger that you could smell what he ate for lunch, just so you could know directions??
What did I tell you?
Porn.

Let me give you another instance. One of the scenes open with the brother feeling bad about his lost brother. Its truly an emotional scene yeah?? you might expect the following scenes to be filled with tears, friends hugging him for comfort, words of love, longing (platonically of course) for his brother, and even if it isnt THAT emotional atleast scenes that truly cement his relationship with his brother and make us feel - oh yeah, this dude really loves his brother.
That's what any sane person would expect right?
Wrong.
What actually follows, is dudes discussing what helps them jerk off.
For one its underwear (which is really gross btw), for the other is 2D anime and so on.

So, if anyone is looking for a class "How to turn really nice heartwarming moments into horny, sex-oriented shit" please refer to this great masterpiece called "PlayBoyy".

I mean, let me be clear. I am not a fictional snob. I really dont mind explicit scenes. But you need to have a basic story plot for me to even be hooked you know?? Sex can be used to fill gaps that you cant fill no matter how much you rack your brains for, but sex alone cannot be a story.

I gave this story 1, cause they didnt allow me to give zero. I think, in retrospect, even a zero is too much of an award for this piece of sex trash.

SYNOPSIS

This drama depicts the story of Cheng Shao Shang ", the "unruly" daughter of Cheng clan and of Ling Buyi, the emperor's adopted son.
Shaoshang grew up without her "family". She does not know what love means, how it feels to be loved and when you can feel love. All throughout her life, she was bullied and mocked for being "abandon" as a new born and "illiterate". She refused to be bullied and so she stand up for herself most of the time. When her parents returned from almost 15 years of absence, she thought she can finally feel the warmth of having "real family" love but then constantly reminded by her mother how "incompetent" she is compared to her "well-mannered" cousin (asian thing).

Ling Buyi is the adopted son of the Emperor. He is a capable General with a "broken" and "dark" past. He felt a strong attraction to young lady, Shaoshang but he did not yet to confess his feelings. He mostly appears whenever Shaoshang is in trouble or in danger, willing to risk his life just for her to be safe. "Action speaks louder than words".

There are two other important "male heroes", Lou Yao and Yuan Shen. Both are from noble families. Lou Yao, the first one to pursue Shaoshang, asked for her hand for marriage and the first one to show Shaoshang how to be "appreciated", "valued" and "loved" but the engagement did not last long for some circumstances. Yuan Shen, pursue Shaoshang when Ling Buyi was punished by the emperor and was sent to the frontier for a long period of time. Heartbroken Shaoshang accepted Yuan Shen to forget Ling Buyi.

Fate played them well.

Ling Buyi came back and messed Shaoshang's feelings again. This time, they will not let go of each other and will hold on forever.
