Reviews

'Hilarious' is Not What I Would Call This Family.

I doubt whether I would have given this one a look had it not been for the reviews I read. Unfortunately, only one was accurate, and the reviewer watched 3 episodes and dropped the series. I struggled through 4 episodes then followed suit and dropped it like a hot rock. I couldn't take another minute of this show.

Whatever the writer was thinking was nothing close to hilarious, and this family was neither warm nor endearing. If this is a portrayal of family life, then no thanks! The characters were dreadful, the interactions were stiff and overdone. I didn't even get to a point where any of the couples were together yet, but they had very little hope given the characters that were introduced up to episode 4.

I couldn't find one redeeming factor to keep me interested or invested in this one. I got out while the going was good. OST was awful. Absolutely NO rewatch value.

NÃO QUERO QUE ACABA NUNCA

É tão confortável assistir os dois desde o inicio é a coisa mais fofa Ana logo aproveitou a oportunidade dada pelo universo e não perdeu tempo e está certo eu não queria o fim desse primeiro episódio de tão bom que é ver esses dois estou ansiosa para o próximo e para ver o primeiro beijo que na minha humilde opinião vai ser a coisa mais linda e cheio de química, pois se logo de cara esses dois estão esbanjando fofura queria colocar em um pote sério e nunca mais soltar.
O clima do episódio está bom as músicas são agradáveis de ouvir e combina muito com a vibe da história vai valer muito a pena acompanhar.

savage cool

down to fourth episode, we found surprises in each turn. However each character here is lived up their savage cool side to camouflaged their true self...

The Good is trying to be mean and ferocious. The Bad is acting up their jester. So, there are no single weak moments. Both side is able to threw banter without actually hitting them. Suddenly, surprise surprise tragic happen. Explosive retaliation. Grand entrance. No time for grieves for the taken soul.

It gets interesting all the way up or down narratives, however I found it a bit loose hooked.
Are we doing gold heist or not? Are we plotting our avenge blue print? Are we casting heroes? Where are we exactly?

Still in the process of watching, and will give it around 10 episodes or so before I decide whether to drop this show or not - however, right now, the female is truly preventing me from enjoying this show. I can't say I'm the biggest fan of Yang Zi, but I liked her enough in Ashes of Love. I'm totally okay with overly cutesy female leads, but not if 99% of their character is focused on chasing after the ML.

Right off the bat, she presumably falls in love at first sight with the ML, secretly gets his contact information without his knowledge, and proceeds to basically stalk him. She was even late to her event because she was busy chasing after him! The whole thing just gave me creepy, obsessive fan vibes.

Based on some of the reviews, it seems that her personality and background never really gets fleshed out and her supposed intelligence is not really put to use either, which is a damn shame. I'm just hoping the chemistry between all the characters is enough for me to continue watching until the end.

Will change my rating/review as I watch on.

XYZ Class movie

The Thai BL industry has reached a new low while spitting out each year new cash out click bait shows.

Many shows have/had good or nice actors, some don´t have, but awful directors and horrible storylines. Some are displaying stereotypes which are even going against humanrights.

This show has a storyline? Inexisting!
This show has good acting? Where please!
Has this show a director? There is a naming ... but ...

The most awful and anoying in this time stealing show is the voice over which is not even simultanous to the lips moving, not that I talk Thai, but when the taliking sound starts and the lips are closed or are long closed and the talking sound is still tunning.

The butler´s workplace is in a super rich household? Where is that? That´s evtl. in a lower class dream which doesn´t know about wealth and those households ... nor any etiquette at tables how to dress etc. etc. etc. And not to forget that butler´s uniforms ... Or how a hire process in such households is ... And the nonsense of undressing to show he´s a man ... ???

Rich and lending a mobile to do some experiments? Guys really?

... and then we have these wiggs named hairdo ...

Not worth a second to watch!
The worth of the worth Thai BL industry samplers!

Promising storyline

Love Dylan Wang so much! For being such a young actor, he’s truly promising. Everything he’s done so far has been phenomenal. He’s young yet experienced, unique yet charming, kiddish yet handsome. I find him very entertaining to watch. He seems to play this character pretty well. Looking forward to watching him develop this role and seeing the rest of this drama. This is the first time I’m watching this actress. I hope I like her. So far I like her strong character. She seems like a smart business woman who will stand up for herself. I sure hope she follows through.

I'd rather watch paint dry

One word: Boring.

I'm not sure what this drama wanted to achieve. It was slow, cliched (the infamous kdrama meeting as children trope and chaebol patriarch with secret lovechild trope) and I'm not sure what the point of this show was? I skipped around because it was SO SLOW and the only good thing was the nice scenery of Greece. This show is touted as "healing" by some reviews but I felt anything but that. In fact I felt annoyed because nothing was happening. Also the ending sucked apparently from what I read but I can't confirm this as I was wasn't willing to stick around and find out. At least the acting was decent.

Interestingly themed drama... But what's up with the cast? If I'm not anxious to watch more of someone, then it's Non Chanon and Marina Sadanun (suffered enough with their previous roles). The only positive thing for Non Chanon, trying to look like a rapper (heh), would be to at least finally get a proper haircut. That could only do good to his overly feminine face, but no. And him wearing couple of braids (seriously) ponytailed on the top of his head, that "surprisingly" did not make him look cool, lol. Same with Marina Sadanun. That girl should be awarded a title of Miss Bland: there hardly was ever anything even remotely rememberable about her except it's repeated everywhere that she's a sister of one other actress (Margie), which after all is not important to me as a viewer. But I guess they need to repeat it because she doesn't resemble her at all and because there's nothing interesting about HER. When I watched her in opening credits, trying to move around and make "rap" gestures, I had to smirk.

First episode (it's 49 mins only) shows us little about the characters. There's the main rapper who looks lame (as he's portrayed by Non Chanon) but hates his dad so at least he's got something to rap about, his friend there just likes to chill but he is tense about becoming someone... Then there's schoolboy being bullied, but liking a girl who likes him back, but as a friend only... She wants to become famous, if he wants to hang out with her in the future, he'll have to become famous, too. This MIGHT work had the schoolboy actually be the younger version of the main rapper, at first I thought we were watching his past flashbacks which would explain his intense need to become famous, but no. So, we just watched a bundle of characters doing this and that. So far no major story.

I might give this a chance to see how it will develop in later episodes but I don't like the cast. And to continue a series, EITHER story or cast must engage me. Nearing the end of the episode Marina Sadanun started singing and I was like: Okay, enough NOW, lol.

Variety concept!!!

When i heard this is a historical drama. First i thought it will be same like all the other historical series. ie, it will be in a fully dramatic mood with cliche romance. But this series have a different story and making. The vfx work was good as well as the music. The story seems to be different and interesting.
If you are looking for something different in a historical series , rather than a fully romantic story , you can surely watch this.
This series is also focusing on romance but with a thrilling story. That makes it different and interesting from other series.

Couldn’t Finish First Eoisode

Such a difference in production quality, pacing and storyline from 8 years ago to today. I wanted to watch this series because it had a young Park Seo-Jun, and it had some tempting clips on youtube. But the first episode had the longest slowest and boring bike ride (pacing!). Sorry, I couldn’t finish it.
I was hesitant to start watching K-Dramas at first but they have improved so much in the last decade. I feel the current dramas are better than even US TV. Now I am addicted.
Better use of my time to rewatch Itaewon Class or What’s Wrong with Secretary Woo.

Its a miracle i got through episode 1

As i wrote in the above headline "Its a miracle i got through episode 1"
i assure you , i am not over exaggerating this AT ALL!!!!
Firstly the plot it was okay if anything i dont have a problem with that
but what i do have a problem with is two things
the behaviours of the characters and how long it is

Now i highly dislike how nut behaves towards his own mother and taohu like that was too aggressive even for him
and the fact that taohu is taking that is another thing, that is incoherently possible !!!
is he some epileptic person/teddybear that cant get some in back
Like i know he is a bear that just turned human and all that but still Me personally cant take that abuse!!!!!
i would like to know how some ppl can stand to watch that and got the guts to rate 10/10 -_- like....really???
i know for a fact that they would be all lovey dovey and stuff but still cant be me !!!!

And i personally watched alot of bls and i know that some of them does be very long in terms of number of episodes and how long the episode takes but it has to be a good series, but this is not worth it!!!! For this to be worth it the episodes need to cut short like 8 to 10 tops but DAMN !!!! 16 episodes with how this series going No sir!!!!!! i am good

i would advise some of u who come across this please dont watch this series if so get ready for a world of cringiness and heartbreak and of course it would have some romance but i aint gonna wait for it to kick in like in what??? the 10th or the 11th episode or smth or ep 9 Nah i am good !!! it would really disappoint you Really!!!

This lakorn's poster scared me twice: there was the face of Pon Nawasch (I had a horrible experience watching him once before, I had to drop the lakorn) PLUS the old Johnny Anfone (who now looks hideous while his acting skills have NOT improved). So this looks like a piece of work to double terrorize the audience with young & old combo of super-annoying main males who cannot act. For such an exceptional case I haven't even downloaded this lakorn and just tried 1st episode online.

See, I have this strong rule to give a chance to ANYTHING. Nevertheless, sometimes the chance is very brief:) Like watching a single episode of this thing: I couldn't help the natural reflex to skip any scene featuring Pon Nawasch:) I had to like, literally force myself to go back, LOL. At least for 1 episode I'll try to bear with it. If he magically improved, I'll keep watching, I promise, LOL. Of course I skipped the intro with him fighting (too sci-fi to watch, I'm afraid) but at least I tried his meeting THE GIRL. First thing I noticed was his shiny earring. He definitely looked more feminine than the girl (the lips!) What an instant reminder of the unwatchable 'Tra Barb See Chompoo'. Either way, in this role he's supposed to be "indian", therefore he is openly wearing an eyeliner. TERRIFIC.

He's got a rival In Sarin Ronnakiat, while I don't care for him I would cheer anyone against Pon Nawasch... Anyways, his character is yet poor and he can't help the first episode's situation, which is kinda depressing. The main heroine gets sexually harassed daily by Johnny Anfone's character, her beautiful land got into his hands and he's about to waste it, and the only one who can buy it out seems to be the annoying Pon Nawasch's character. What a hell. I really didn't envy this nang'ek.

Then even I got harassed by more scenes of Pon Nawasch trying to portray that he is crying (hell) or going into the fighting ring with his upper body revealed and face painted (hell/comedy) in front of BETTING audience (sci-fi) and then even surviving the fight as a winner (fantasy). I'm afraid such a killer genre mix is too much on my heart, LOL. I had to laugh so hard I nearly choked. But I'm afraid I can't seriously keep watching it. He can play a toot. Or he can play a girl. Perhaps transgender? But not this please, no one can stand to keep laughing so hard. I have only one health. So I'll stick only to one episode. Ok seriously, maybe In Sarin's line would become a watchable later on but I can't help it, Johnny Anfone as lecherous stepfather grosses me out. Too much unwatchable stuff.

decided to watch this bc its famous

the headline says it all, that's why i've decided to watch it. i'm half of the episode one and yeah they talk about depression and things which made me interested since i also feel that way, maybe it could give me advice or some but when i'm like at the timestamp 30:00+ i realized that it's too long and boring. yeah, i dropped it that fast. some ppl said that they felt the same way so it's up to u if u will watch it or not. i think it eats too much of ur time tho. ANYWAY the good thing here is they also said that it's just like that so that u'll get the pov of each character but i just think its too long for me so i dropped it. BUT it'll be good on the next episodes (i guess)

I hope you guys drama lovers open your eyes! World is too narrow if you don't watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz_0A7d5xDo

The reason i give the music 10 stars because they're from recording but they're only paying actress to sync the recordings in the wrong timing I'm so dissapointed.

The show is chock full of cliches, but in the best possible way: they are full embraced and played with. I like a show that takes the standard tropes and has some fun with them. For instance it takes a while to figure out the "oh so sweet and perfect" Candy character. Is she sweet? Weak? Secretly manipulative?
