gaslight the audience into thinking stalker-y behavior is cute ✨
So the lead, Kris, randomly dreams about Karn and then sees that she's a newscaster and becomes scarily obsessed with her. Like, harassing her online kind of scary. Kris then hears that Karn is leaving her job and she writes her a fan letter to try to convince her out of this decision. Like.... Kris you do not know this woman and are trying to influence her decisions because you are weirdly dependent on her after seeing her face in a dream..... get a grip on reality!! Anyway, turns out that Karn is leaving her current job to work with Kris' brother and Kris has just started working for him too. Cue Kris and Karn being paired together on a project and Kris acting in such a way that it's impossible to read her behavior as anything other than her despising Karn even though her inner monologue tries really hard to give a plausible reason for why her crush on Karn is making her behave in such an odd manner. Their dynamic deteriorates further when Kris sees that Karn is holding onto the letter she sent to her (under the name Apple) and Kris mocks Karn for thinking she has a fan. Again, the inner monologue is trying to tell me that this is Kris panicking but I just don't buy that someone would be acting this batshit towards their crush. Kris then talks with her brother after basically running away from Karn and he mentions that Karn is going through a rough time bc she's all alone since her mom died and Kris suddenly jumps to asking about Karn's love life and gets all f*cking excited about this?!?!?! Like, girl what the f*ck is wrong with you why are you eager to swoop in and start dating a woman when she's emotionally vulnerable???? Manipulative stalker weirdo.Anyway this was episode 1 and I will not be watching more. I'm good thanks, I don't care to see them become a couple 👋

Apple: The Series – ¿La vi o la soñé?
Honestamente, no sé ni por dónde empezar esta reseña… pero no porque tenga demasiado que decir, sino porque —sorpresa— ¡no me acuerdo de la trama! La vi hace unos meses, me olvidé de escribir sobre ella en su momento… y ahora estoy acá, dudando si una de las protagonistas era ciega o eso lo soñé después de una maratón de doramas.Y mirá, ese dato ya habla por sí solo.
La historia es bastante olvidable, no voy a mentir. Pero también hay que decir que me entretuvo lo suficiente como para verla en dos noches, así que tan grave no fue. Tiene ese factor de “no sé qué está pasando pero no puedo dejar de mirar”, como cuando uno se queda viendo dramas de TikTok sin contexto.
Lo más rescatable, sin duda, es la química entre las protagonistas. Ellas se merecen un guión que les haga justicia. O por lo menos uno que no se borre de la memoria como archivo temporal de WhatsApp.
Conclusión: Apple: The Series no va a cambiar tu vida, ni mucho menos, pero si tenés un rato libre y ganas de ver algo ligero, no duele. Solo no le pidas mucho… ni intentes recordarla después de una semana.

Il gruppo di amici di Kris sono il gioiello della serie. Solidali e simpatici. La splendida chimica tra OrmFolk rende le loro scene dolci e delicate, rendendo la trama semplice emozionante e divertente. Anche le scene d´amore sono state una piacevole sorpresa.
In sostanza, questa serie non si concentra su grandi conflitti drammatici ma parla di Kris e Karn che affrontano ostacoli nella loro relazione e si aiutano a vicenda a crescere, sia come persone che nelle loro carriere. La comunicazione e la comprensione tra loro sono ciò che davvero spicca.
Dall´altro lato, i soli sei episodi con un budget limitato, hanno portato a delle scelte frettolose eclissando su alcuni dettagli che avrebbero reso questa serie ancora migliore.

Doux, émouvant et passionné
Et c'est avec un drama sans prise de tête que commence cette review. Là où l'histoire aurait pu être larmoyante à en crever, elle ne l'était et a préservé les spectateurs. L'intrigue est bien trouvée et met bien en lumière le fait que malgré les droits qui sont accordés, il reste encore un certain nombre de personnes qui seront des haters jusqu'au bout.Pour ce qui est du cast et de l'acting, j'ai été soufflée par la complicité entre Ormsin (Kris) et Folk (Karn), ainsi que celle de Gun (Phut). Pour ce qui est du reste, ça suivi sans encombre pour nous donner ce résultat final. Je n'ai pas été particulièrement marquée par l'OST, ce qui est dommage, ça aurait apporté un peu plus de cachet à ce drama.
