Reviews

The only word that kept coming to mind after each episode was "bland". The acting from the mains and supports felt pretty subpar and none of the characters really stood out. In addition to not buying into the acting, the plot felt rushed in areas where it should have had more focus, lingered too long in other areas, and there weren't enough details to glue it together.

This one was tough to write about actually because it had the ingredients to be pretty decent so it's hard to describe or pinpoint what was missing from it. Despite some heart-warming scenes and bonding moments, it somehow felt shallow at the same time. It didn't help that the main character was also pretty obnoxious and unappreciative.

I would normally stick with a series if at least one or two aspects were done well enough especially because this one has a relatively short number of episodes. But the overall feel of this one just didn't intrigue much, and less so with each episode. Onward to the continuous search of good series that involves the afterlife and/or spirits.

A comedic relief

This is the perfect series to watch after we had just gotten some darker themed dramas such as Only Friends and Dangerous Romance. It’s the perfect drama to watch right now alongside Last Twilight because of the perfect contrast between the two. OffGun have shown us exactly what they’re capable of with Not Me so it’s so refreshing that they can have such an easier laid back series. The entire cast are just so hilarious and I’m enjoying the comedy aspect of the show.
I’ve waited a while for this show and can not wait for more from OffGun in the future.
You should watch it because OffGun has great natural chemistry and you can see Neo act as a “straight” man *insert crying emoji*.

Unbelievable annoying

OMG, again the same. In the first episode ML is a top notch in the industry, highly dignified and matured with high EQ, IQ etc.. etc.. etc… but after meeting the FL, falls in love at first sight and becomes different person like a shameless jerk with no self respect and his IQ, EQ drops to negative value, keep on pestering her even though to a extent she indirectly slapped him but again he repeats the same.
After watching 10 episodes what I got confused is whether this drama direction team is brainless or me for watching this. For 10 episodes no story at all, without any proper plots ML and FL keeps on cross their paths and whenever they meet ML always forcing the FL to break up with the boyfriend(even in the office) and she keeps on telling (in all possible ways, both decent and extreme) not to interfere in her personal business but again he shamelessly repeating the same thing for 10 episodes(I have only watched 10)

Same feelings as for The Eclipse

If "Only friends" gave me the same feelings like "Love in the air", then "Last twilight" give me "The Eclipse" vibe.
Eps. 1-2: I need a new obsession after "Only Friends" and I think this one is the winner. The Saturday obsession is over to start the Friday one. It won't be the same feelings and the same expectations with the soul in the mouth, but it has potential.
I've only seen 2 episodes of Viceversa, it didn't pique my curiosity enough to continue it, but JimmySea is a couple I wanted to see again. And I like them a lot in this one.
I like the characters and the story (so far), I hope it doesn't start to rush. In episode 2 I felt a rush after the "fight" between Day and Mhok. How can you miss a person you've known for a few days?
Eps. 3-4: They were so cute. I love the characters, Jimmy and Sea do a wonderful job portraying Mhok and Day.

Things that got me excited and atecipated

"Bad and Crazy", the title of this drama, can not be more perfect, even before the show begins the title is hinting the viewers at the plot and also the events that are going to follow, eventually unveiling the main plot and as to what one should be expecting to watch. The title is not ambiguous in any way it is the most straightforward title I personally have ever come across.

If you are choosing to watch this drama you should be well and ready for what is awaiting you. This drama is addictive in many ways and will keep you up all night thinking of the various possibilities that the plot may or can explore, I would suggest that its best to not watch this drama now when it is running, but once it ends premiering that way you will have at least some peace of mind.

This drama is made to be binge-watched, I am telling you if you don't binge-watch this drama it is definitely not worth it, waiting for a week to watch the next part is not the greatest feeling. I am not a fan of this genre, violence is not my cup of tea but this drama is fun to watch by that I mean like many other k-dramas this drama too is not only focused on one genre but is exploring other genres too.

Now, for why I am writing this review, this may or may not be a spoiler but from my assessment, the plot will be something like so Ryu Soo Yeol (played by Lee Dong Wook) is probably suffering from Dissociative identity disorder (DID), s a mental health condition. People with DID have two or more separate identities. These personalities control their behaviour at different times. Each identity has its own personal history, traits, likes and dislikes. His headaches, loss of memory, no clear evidence of the presence of another person even though he mentions having seen someone, and getting beaten up by that same person are what are given in the first two episodes. The end of the second episode gives us a clue. K (played by Wi Ha Joon) can be one of the other identities that he may have. His sense of guilt, self-righteousness, his survivalist attitude that he needs to have to survive in the rotten environment due to his educational background and other reasons (which may get unveiled to us in future) is what makes him create a second personality. There can be more identities too, who knows may we get shocked in future. But the plot of this drama is so exciting that analysing it is too fun to do as well. (DISCLAIMER, ALL THIS IS MY OWN DEDUCTION, MAY OR MAY NOT HAPPEN, WILL GET TO KNOW MORE AS THE DRAMA PROGRESSES).

We can expect a lot from this drama ie., for sure what a way to end this year.

Give this drama a shot!

If you are wanting a love-romance plot then this drama is not for you. If you are here just for Shen-yue, this drama is not for you. Vivienne Tan is the narrator here so I believe she has a stronger role but who knows? I haven't watched it all.

It has a bittersweet story to all characters. This drama is not focused on just a single character and truly brings out everyone's personality. It has covered many topics that we face in daily life. From family problems, mother-daughter relation, fear of not being enough, personal boundary, childhood crush to amazing friendship! You name it.

It does has many characters because the plot revolves around four girls but trust me, it does its job of not overshadowing but keeping it fun and exciting at the same time. I loved to see Leon Leong from METEOR GARDEN casted in this drama. His character is not that overpowering but sweet and subtle.
The thing I would like to see was a bit differences in the personality of girls rather than jumping into the same stereotype where one of them is nerdy, one is boyish, one is overly sensitive princess and the other one is sassy rich girl. But as the title says, BE YOURSELF.
I hope this drama lives upto its name and succeeds to convey its full potential.

hard to watch

Our series was 55 episodes, I was so patient to finish it that I couldn't stand it in the end, I quit in the 47th episode. I no longer have the patience. Our series, which went very well in the beginning, broke down in the middle, and towards the end it got worse and got out of hand. It was unattainable. The reason was that when the character called Jing Wu was included in the series, the series started to deteriorate a little bit and completely broke down. It was a one-man series. The character Lu Zhao You, who dominated everyone from the beginning, suddenly turned into a passive character, a helpless character. Suffering from helplessness and blemishes on his face, the character of Mo Qing later turned into an irresistible hero. He became smarter and more fighter than anyone else. However, Lu Zhao You, who even brought a GOLDEN IMMORTAL to heel, was defeated by the stupid, idiotic character called Jing Wu who defeated everyone. That character's only obsession is Lu ZhaoYou, she can't do anything against him. However, the character Lu Zhao You knows this, but does not hold him, does not prevent him, but also blocks the character of Mo Qing. then she does the evil she wants to the people she wants. The last thing that blew my patience was the following: Qin Xian would not be able to kill because he had captured the character's heart. But he went and killed the Ah Da character. He fought Mo Qing to the death. At that time, neither the story nor the script had any credibility or the weight of integrity, I don't know. Don't shake it, so make it up and make it up whatever you want, it doesn't matter. Who cares if the show breaks down from start to finish. It's a pity. They ruined it. The same things happened in the events of reviving this immortal. There were too many fictitious things, one-way events and impositions. Everything that will not happen has been done. After all, it can be called FANTASTIC and peeled off. But even in the series, the screenwriter made things that he said will not be done, done. He self-destructed. My beauty ruined the show. The games of the actors, the watchability and integrity of the series, were destroyed. At least it did for me. Shame on the episode I watched so much. I couldn't finish. I wish they hadn't extended it for nothing, 40 episodes would have been better. There were very backwards, fake stories and events in this series. It was very tight. It was a pity. Shame on the players and the management. I am sad. I hope the writer will be upset too.

Great fantasy drama

I had great expectations after having watched Soul land. Douluo continent so far is living up to the expectations.Storyline and casting are great .
story is not exactly the same and there are some new twists that builds up interest to watch.
Having watched 3D CG graphics of Soul land, Douluo continent graphics feels little underwhelmed . Could have been better.
With so many fantasy dramas coming, the key to success is a good clear storyline , keeping up a fair reasoning , logic and mixing with the right levels of emotion.
I really hope the whole Soul land is remade and not stop with Season 1. Looking forward to it.

normally before i start to watch drama (kdrama, cdrama,tdrama,jdrama) i will check the review first and it's rating and check the cast together with their previous drama or movie. well, maybe most of us do that.
so otw to episode 14 and still, yes STILL i don't understand why this drama rated so high.
9.4! c'mom... the acting of this drama is so lame.
am i being like this bcoz i never had the chance to read the novel??? really???
don't get me wrong but i'm not into romance as well.
story of minglan is way waaayyyy better than this drama.
guess comparing them both will not give justice to minglan.

ps. got me until episode 14 bcoz of the rating
pps. i made an account just to express my dismay of this drama

Slowly I fell in love with the new cast

I used to love 2D1N with the cast from the season 3. I haven't watch the previous seasons and I started watching the show only because Yoon Shi Yoon was in there. Later, I stayed because it was fun, so when it was over, I was really sad, since it was my happy place. Then, it came the announcement of a new season, with a new cast and I had my doubts. Not because of the cast (I only knew Seon Ho then from the new ones), but because I started watching for someone that wasn't there anymore. Then I watched the first episodes and it wasn't easy, I found it a little akward but suddenly, in some point, I was rooting for Jung Hoon to win, and laughing with Seon Ho and Ravi. I love the three of them so maybe around episode 10 I started waiting every week to watch (again) and now I'm even repeating the whole season (can't believe is one year already). I confess the one that I had the most hard time liking was Din Din, but really, watching all the episodes and seeing how their friendship and bond grew stronger it's so inspirational. And I laugh a lot, so they are my happy place again and I'm happy about that, so here's my first review about a show.

Please no!

Oh my life where do I start! Another marriage contract romcom - why?!! This is the equivalent of a Mills and Boon romance novel. Full of the usual tropes and then some! Falling, accidentally lip meeting, drunk FL, 2 ML who fell in love as a child with her and been looking for her ever since, the list is endless! Plus the overbearing ML who manipulates, bullies and constantly grabs and physically looms over the FL. Rampant sexism.
When are the chinese writers ever going to make something original and representative of life in the 21st century.
This is not original, funny or interesting- the actors and actresses deserve a better stroryline as they are natural and good at their craft.
