All that drama....for this???
I'm sorry but this show is bad. I don't think many people actually had high hopes with it, between the fact that it was delayed for so long, then all the drama with the actors not being paid, etc. etc. but wow, I did not expect it to be THIS bad. I want to say that Jeff and Barcode made this watchable but frankly, they didn't. Nothing about this show was very good at all - the dialogue wasn't good, the plot was pretty stupid, and the show itself just ended up feeling like a whole lot of nothing. Also, I feel like no one is talking about the elephant in the room of everyone speaking different languages??? Sure, you can argue that the aliens can translate every language or whatever, but the humans can't! You've got one conversation going with two people speaking Thai, two speaking Korean, and one speaking English and they're all just supposed to understand each other? Plus, the characters barely made any sense in themselves considering they tried to develop an entire nation of aliens with weird powers (tasting through your hands?) and desires to take over the world in a show that lasts less than 4 hours. Not to mention the character that is but also is not a dog...? Frankly, I don't care how much you like JeffBarcode, this show is not worth it.Was this review helpful to you?
Goofy, fun, light comedy
Yes it's cringe as f...., but that's what makes it so freaking hilarious.The cast has a great sense of humor and you can tell, that they had a lot of fun filming this.
It's a really fun, light comedy, almost a little cartoonise.
It's not a profound story with a strong character development, so if that's what you looking for, then your are not the targeted audiens.

A light and fluffy BL comedy that was easy to watch.
Cute, simple, and perfect when you just want something fun and soft. 😊

What it says on the tin
I came late to the whole Wooju Bakery hype so I only had to wait like a month for this to come out. I understand how people could feel disappointed with the show given the amount of delays, hype and time it had surrounding it.Saying that, I think the hate this show is receiving is unnecessary.
Is it high budget? No
Is the story line all over the place? Yes
Are there cuts and missing scenes everywhere? Also yes
BUT! Having seen the trailer many times before the show aired, it never came across as a show to be taken seriously. It's camp, silly and just fun to watch. There's not really any drama, no difficult plot line to follow and plenty of moments to cringe and facepalm at. Jeff and Barcode's chemistry, like always, is phenomenal. The casual playfullness and softness that they bring to Raon and Wooju is a breath of fresh air after the heartbreak that is KimChay.
I am so glad that Studio on Saturn fought for compensation for the cast and crew, and that this show was finally able to air. It's going to be something I rewatch when I need some happiness. I'm also glad that Jeff and Barcode were able to work together again, and I cannot wait to see what happens with Happy Ending!
TL;DR - Is it the best executed show out there? No. But it's fun to watch and brings a happiness that we all need, especially with how the world is right now.

Cringe, but it works
Even though it was cringe and ridicilous and i normaly hate that, i actualy enjoyed watching this series.I can't explain why, but it worked for me.
The story was fun and the visuals good. I don't really remember the music.
The acting was good, not great. The only one who was really good was Jeff.
Barcode had very good moments, but also bad ones.

The only thing I have to say is, the fucking outfit. I get it they are aliens, but please... No stop this is ugly.
The acting is really okay for a low budget serie.
It's cringey, short, light and silly. If you want some masterpiece or deep story, you may not find it in here.

That said, surprisingly, I still had fun watching it. It’s one of those shows you just put on to relax and enjoy. Everything is chaotic, but at the same time cute and entertaining.

Uhm...
At first, I expected too much because we waited for almost 3 years, right? I was expecting the outcome to be great, but it didn’t really meet my expectations. Still, it didn’t matter that much to me since it was also good because the actors and actresses did what they could in the series.I really don’t understand why it had to be dubbed in three languages (Thai, Korean, and English). Well, I know that aliens can translate different kinds of languages, but it felt a bit off to me.
What I loved about this series was that it somehow made me laugh and enjoy it, even though it was less than an hour long. I also adored Jeff Satur and Barcode Tinnasit in the series because of their interactions with each other, even if they weren’t shown for that long. I also missed seeing them together since KinnPorsche.
The other actors did well, but I didn’t really like how the two Filipino actors, Jayson and Alpha, delivered their lines.
This series was almost going to get sued because it wasn’t officially announced, and GagaOOLala just announced it without the actors’ permission, to the point that it caused issues on social media. Overall it's good, though some of you didn't like the series. But I hope we still support the actors hard work of this series. <3

It’s just cute you know? ?
If you’re expecting top tier acting and a masterful plot then wait for Happy Ending. That is going to give the plot, depth and emotional madness we are all craving. This is just a fun, quirky, nonsensical show. The plot isn’t complicated, it’s aliens on earth , baking and falling in love. If you watched the pilot and expected more, then I don’t understand. 🤔 It doesn’t take itself seriously which I actually love.Cringe moments: yes.
Over the top comedy beats : yes
nonsense sci fi plot: yes
small emotional moments: yes
Jeff & Barcode being cute af: yes 🙌
Essentially Jeff is an alien Prince who comes to Earth and meets Wooju who is Barcode. Antics ensue in the bakery while a haphazard alien takeover plot happens in the background. Despite that, the chemistry is fantastic 🤗 and the emotional beats, even though they are small specks here and there, are appreciated. In 8 episodes I can see how they fell for each other and I love it!
Also shout out to the side couple. Not much time or dialogue but I would watch a show with them ngl 🤷🏾♀️
This show gives ✨Disney Channel Original✨ movie vibes like early 2000’s. It’s giving Zenon lol I’m old don’t judge 😩.
Jeff & Barcode are silly and adorable yet still manage to have great chemistry. The acting isn’t terrible for what it is. You can tell they had fun filming. If you just want to watch something cute and short, I recommend it just for that. If you like silly shows with over the top comedy bits and just a fun vibe you’ll like this. Even Jeff himself said that was the expectation.
Let’s not forget how long ago the show was made. So many are saying they are really let down but this was their first show after KP as a pair. Not only that, it wasn’t even going to be released until another studio bought it. I don’t think you should judge their capabilities on this show and just sit back and enjoy the ride. ✨

Loved it!
Ok so this isn't going to win any awards but if you love Jeff &/or Barcode and are looking for a chill slightly funny at times show full of utter nonsense this is your show. I was coming off of a couple pretty heavy shows so this was nice to just relax and enjoy. The PJ'S the put Jeff in should be the only thing he's allowed to wear! He's just a cute little adorable alien in this and Barcode always getting aggravated with him always made me smile. Like I said it's not winning any awards but I'm not wishing I could get the time I spent watching it back like other show (2gether, meow ears up & love is like a cat I'm looking at you). I went into it know it was supposed to be silly and ridiculous not thinking it was going to be some great epic. I mean it's about a alien and a bakery. 😂Was this review helpful to you?
Execrable!
I refuse to sugar-coat any pretense about this series. It is one of the worst I have ever seen. Hands down. Period. Not only in terms of storytelling and script, but also in acting, directing, and production. It has one of the most nonsensical stories I have ever seen. It had no point. The plot was witless, illogical, and utterly stupid. I could not simulate what was happening at all. The horror of horrors is that there are aliens swarming all over our planet who are going to do something to us, but I never could quite understand exactly what they were going to do. Most, if not all, were dastardly people out to either profit (but how I am not sure as their form of money was useless here) by taking things from this planet or using us for nefarious reasons. Oh my! But all that is unimportant. Seriously, there are not enough adjectives to describe how truly bad this series is. I am guessing this was supposed to be a comedy, but it is overall not funny or even has much humor or fun to it. Was this series a spoof? Or maybe nothing more than sarcasm? Perhaps it was done tongue-in-cheek, right? No, it is just bad. It looked like a clown show with costumes borrowed as hand-me-downs from a high school performance of the Wizard of Oz. There is really no coherent story. It is a jumbled mess with little thought in making the story flow with consistency. The acting between these two rather seasoned performers was not even at a mediocre level. They were flatly and unequivocally uninvolved in their personifications and had no connection with who they were supposedly representing. Their acting was pedestrian.Was this review helpful to you?
