Made my Teume heart happy!

TREASURE is the best! You should totally this if you are a Treasure Makers (Teume) or even if you're not. If you want to stan them and also want to memorize the members names, watching this drama is a great way to do that.

Story: [I tried not to spoil it but don't worry it's just a minor spoiler]
The story was great and every episode, you would suspect different members. That's why it's great because it will make you think who really is the ghost? (Even though it was soo obvious and was revealed that the ghost is _____ in Ep. 3, it will still make you have doubts if he is really the ghost) Also, the ghost' story was really sad and everything he had been through was also sad. Even though not everything has been cleared, it was still a great story. It also taught us that friendship is really important, like how the ghost disappeared when everyone ignored him and how he has back because his friends stand up for him

Acting/Cast:
They are amazing and talented idols and now they are great actors. Ever since I watched It's Okay, That's Friendship (Treasure 1st drama since debut), I wanted to see more of their acting. They weren't perfect that time since it was their first time but now they've improved a lot. YG be making their artists into great actors/actresses.

Music:
Their OST BFF is really amazing. Even it wasn't promoted but it's topping the charts, it shows how great it is. Choi Hyunsuk wrote the lyrics and he deserves to be called one of the best lyricist.

Rewatch Value:
Since it's not that long, You can binge watch or rewatch it anytime since it's only 2.6 hours. Totally recommend you this short web drama. You can rewatch it if you still haven't memorize the members yet.

Rating from a non-Teume

Firstly, I accidentally discovered this show on YouTube during the release of Episode 2. After that, I've been following the weekly releases of the show.

Story:

At first, I was disappointed because the show already revealed the ghost in episode 3. However, the show is not a mystery show about who's the ghost because it was clear that Haruto is the ghost.

I gave 9/10 because some aspects were missed. Like, who's the reason for the teacher's accident? Who's the ghost or what's that bad aura that gives Junhyuk nightmares? Or what's the cause of that bird's crash in early episodes?

These questions were minor aspects of the show yet these questions make the show interesting at the start since they gave me reasons root for answers. Sadly, they weren't answered. Or I certainly missed them?

Anyway, the story is good and entertaining.

EDIT: There are cookie videos (exclusive videos) that are not available on YT viewers. There's a link on the comment below.

Acting/Casting:

As a non-fan, it was difficult for me to learn their names at first. Believe me or not, I've watched Ep 1-4 many times just so I could memorize their names. And for that reason, I appreciate the acting of each member.

Although some members don't have lines, at least the acting was commendable. Examples in mind would be Asahi and Yoshi. No explanation.

For Haruto, the main character. I have to applaud. Also, I love Hyunsuk, Junkyu, Jeongwoo, Junghwan, Junhyuk, and Dooyoung's acting.

Plus, the side character: the Homeroom teacher, and the two boys from the other section. I like their acting as well. They helped the show progress.


Music:

I like BFF (Best Friends Forever) soundtrack and the last song, I don't know the title. The final scene's OST made me sob. It was heart-wrenching.

The scoring and sound effects are also effective.


Rewatch Value:

Well, I've said it already. I've been rewatching the show multiple times.


Conclusion:

From a non-fan, it was a great experience. Though, I haven't heard TREASURE's whole discography—I only heard their title tracks, which are good btw—I finally learned all their names and their acting skills. Maybe in the future, I'll check other songs from them.

Don't underestimate this drama like I did

Okay, Let's get this straight I did not expect this drama to be so well done and their acting was great for the ig the 2nd timers (First time was in It's okay that's friendship)
The drama started of in a good pace and every ending made me wanting more! I went inside to just check out TREASURE's acting after "It's okay that's friendship". I wasn't expecting much when I started it and after the 1st ep, I liked their acting..
What actually surprised me is the Story, It was very good for a short drama like this and it well taken. They have improved a lot!
And aout their acting, trust me when I say their acting has got much better and it was very well! They played their charecter very well.. especially Doyoung's acting was very good.
This drama is definitely a must watch and you wont regret it!

I can’t deny that I enjoyed this drama, it just didn’t really introduce anything spectacular or new, so I don’t really know what rating to give it. I went into this not even knowing it was about a kpop band, and as soon as I found out, it felt a little too meta for me. Kind of like that book “Carry On” by Rainbow Rowell where the book is a fanfiction of a character from her other book? Yeah that, but with TREASURE and with them acting like high school students but at the same time basically playing “self-inserts” (D&D word, sorry) of themselves. It was just kind of weird. I also admit that I literally COULD NOT for the life of me tell them apart even though I don’t usually struggle with this sort of thing in kdramas. I am absolutely horrible at recognizing faces in general, and these kpop boys all had the same clothes and the same haircuts. But I digress. I think you’d probably really enjoy this if you’re a treasure fan. I know I’d be rating this 10/10 if the same drama was filmed with BTS. As an outsider and a critic of the actual drama’s value, though, I have to give this a 6/10. On a positive note, I really loved how beautifully this drama was filmed. It felt really clean and crisp, and the special effects and set design were *chef’s kiss*.

Loved it

I’m new to all these bands and actors and so glad I have found them as I really enjoyed this show. It’s one I can’t wait to rewatch so I can see what I missed the first time as I find every time I rewatch a show I see new things and this show made me cry which hasn’t happened in awhile.
The ending was perfect there was some parts that made you rethink if you did want to continue watching but for me I’m soo glad I did watch this and hoping to see these guys in more shows.

Want to also thank the people who add English subtitles to these shows so I can enjoy watching them.

English and Portuguese Review

𝐖𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥
I’m sorry to say that my rating won’t be positive at all. I was misled by the extremely high scores and almost everyone giving it a 10, so I started watching expecting a suspense masterpiece. What a disappointment.

The story revolves around an extra student in the classroom, and from the very beginning they say they need to find this ghost. In my head, I imagined something like a survival game, similar to *Night Has Come* or even the anime *Another*, where the atmosphere is tense and people are actually in danger. But it was nothing like that.

To start with, the cinematography is very confusing. The drama promises horror and supernatural elements, but delivers bright, vibrant colors, and many scenes feel more like a school comedy than something scary. The students act overly cheerful and carefree all the time, which completely breaks any sense of danger. In several moments, I felt like I was watching a school BL focused on the dynamics between the boys. I have nothing against that, I even watch it sometimes, but it’s not what I expected here.

The editing and camera work also bothered me a lot. The editing is extremely weak, with transitions that look like they were made in basic phone editing apps, full of sparkly effects and weird cuts that completely ruin the immersion. There were scenes where you could even notice green screen flaws. It ended up making the production feel amateurish. The script follows the same path, the mystery basically ends at the very beginning. I literally pointed at a character in episode one and guessed correctly without any difficulty. On top of that, the ghost has several powers, but none of them are truly explored.

As for the acting, I also found it limited. In many moments you can clearly tell they’re acting, it doesn’t feel natural. The characters lack depth, and the classroom dynamic feels completely unrealistic. Everyone is friends with everyone, when in real life people usually stick to their own groups.

In the end, I felt the idea had potential, but the execution was superficial. For someone who genuinely enjoys horror, this series is a complete waste of time.

Sinto dizer que minha avaliação não será nada positiva. Fui enganado pelas avaliações altíssimas e quase todo mundo dando nota 10, então comecei a assistir esperando uma obra-prima do suspense. Que decepção.

A história gira em torno de um integrante a mais na sala e, desde o começo, eles falam que precisam encontrar esse fantasma. Na minha cabeça, eu imaginei algo no estilo jogo de sobrevivência, tipo "Night Has Come" ou até o anime "Another", onde o clima é tenso e as pessoas realmente correm perigo. Mas não foi nada disso.

Para começar, a cinematografia é bem confusa. O drama promete terror e sobrenatural, mas entrega cores claras, vibrantes, e muitas cenas parecem mais uma comédia escolar do que algo assustador. Os alunos agem de forma muito animada e descontraída o tempo todo, o que quebra completamente qualquer sensação de perigo. Em vários momentos eu senti que estava vendo um BL escolar focado na dinâmica entre os garotos. Eu não tenho nada contra, inclusive assisto às vezes, mas não era o que eu esperava aqui.

As edições e os enquadramentos também me incomodaram bastante. A edição é fraquíssima, com transições que parecem feitas em editores básicos de celular, cheias de "brilhinhos" e cortes estranhos que tira completamente a imersão. Teve cena em que dava até para perceber falhas na tela verde. Isso acabou deixando a produção com um ar meio amador. O roteiro segue o mesmo caminho, o mistério acaba logo no início. Eu literalmente apontei para um personagem no primeiro episódio e acertei sem dificuldade. Além disso o fantasma tem vários poderes, mas nada é explorado de verdade.

Sobre a atuação, também achei limitada. Em vários momentos dá para perceber que estão atuando, não soa natural. Os personagens não têm profundidade e a dinâmica da sala é totalmente irreal... todo mundo é muito amigo de todo mundo, sendo que na vida real cada um fica no seu grupo.

No fim, senti que a ideia tinha potencial, mas a execução foi superficial. Pra alguém que realmente gosta de terror, essa série é uma total perca de tempo.

:))

it’s not bad, it’s kinda boring, but i enjoyed and loved the 8th episode, it made me so emotionat.
you can kill you time by watching it, but I don’t recommend it, there are a lot of more amazing and interesting kdramas to watch.
also i wanna say that the main character’s acting was amazing(the ghost).

I think more idols should star in series together

I am gonna be honest.If you are looking for an amazing drama then this not the one.The plot and dialogues were not good.They revealed who the ghost is too early.But I don't regret watching it.I think it is supposed to be a quick and fun thing to watch.The idols are very talented and they did a good job with what they were given.Their friendships and bond is super adorable.I would love to see them in more dramas where they are given a chance to teuly show their acting skills.Also there were some funny moments.Overall if you are treasure stan then you should definetly watch it.

Exceptional !!!

The more I think about how short it is the more I become sad. It's such a masterpiece that it feels like it never finishes.

There's a 21st student in the class and no one has any damn idea about whom it could be??, Ummm maybe a ghost or maybe no, there have always been 21 of us, that's must be merely a misunderstanding, but wait .... why did they mentioned there were only 20 student, don't they see that we have 21 in our attendance record, I guess we should count, wait, 1,2,3,4............. 18,19,20,21, huh?? 21, See I told you it's 21 of us, ahhh let it go, that's definitely a misunderstanding, no, no.... wait, then why are these creepy things happening around us all of a sudden, why others aren't able to se all 21 of us, I guess there's definitely a ghost in here!!!! It's all tangled how would we solve this??

That's all a big tangled confusion and question, whether there really is a ghost in there or not, if yes then who??

It gets more and more interesting as the episodes go far, And most importantly it's all logical no dumb bound story. I suggest you should definitely be watching this.

Haruto's form as a ghost

It's less exciting because Haruto seems like he can only surrender when it's discovered that he's a ghost in the episode before the End. Even his teacher who suddenly realized Haruto's existence near the End scolded and blamed Haruto for being a ghost, it's like Haruto has no self-respect to become a ghost. As a ghost, he should be able to disappear or have dark powers that can trick his friends and teachers. yeah, back again. This is just a short Web Drama, so it's natural that the storyline seems a bit forced, But overall the story is really good.

It's not scary

so yes it is not scary but this is the best mini drama i would love to watch again and again the story the characters everything is just perfect according to me. I just loved how it went and even made me cry for real if you read this story or someone will tell you maybe you won't have that excitement and those emotions which one would have while watching it . It's the drama i would love to recommend it's the must watch drama. the story goes like a normal school when the kids discover something new that there should only be 20 of them but there 21. and some senerios made them believe that's there a ghost between them . soon one of the guy discover the ghost who was his dorm mate but didn't told anyone about it and was helping him. in between many things happened atlast all the students got to know about the real ghost and then voted if they should let him be the part and it was positive as the number of students agreeing for the ghost to stay was more soon the teacher realised the truth at the end all students stood up for the ghost and he stayed. this story truly tells that friendship have no boundaries. it's really lovely. it didn't contain that romance thing for the romance lovers and is not scary for the horror story lovers but I will recommend you to watch it it's really something beautiful.

I loved it! Perfect for new fans of Treasure

So, how do I start...
I started liking Treasure because of this and I learned the names and everything with this series.
I really liked the story with the ghost and the misunderstanding about him (I btw liked Haruto since the start and he's still my bias) and that his friends protected him at the end.
The ending and the last 2 episodes made me so emotional (I cried), but they were great!
Fun fact: I'm not an emotional person at all 😅)
About the acting: It was pretty good for the members who didn't have an acting role yet and they were good at portraying them.
Music: There wasn't that much music besides the mysterious intro sound, which I still kinda liked.
I think that this series is perfect for new stans to learn the faces with the names in a funny way.
