Cinnamon Roll

I am so excited. Can't wait to see Park Jihoon in action. 🔥

Season 2 is all about Moon Dongeun's revenge and it gets dark and brutal. I didn't expect they'd add Joo Yeojung's revenge arc in the final episode. I was least interested in his character so that was a bit of a drag for me. I didn't like how they handled Jaejun's end. Yes his eye's were his weakness. But they could get more creative there. There are some disturbing scenes in this without warning like the perverted teacher situation. I wish there was one.
After completing this series, I think all the vices they predicted in this show are real but the perpetrators' dark punishments are not. In reality, many people get away with their abusive behavior and never get questioned. Their victims also never get justice. It can only happen in fiction.

I give season 1, 8/10 rating because it is very disturbing to watch. Some scenes made me feel sick. The romance between the leads felt weak and unnecessary. If not for those reasons, this is a 10/10 show.
The revenge has not started yet. I can't imagine how brutal it's going to be in the second season.

I rarely give something 10/10 but this is 10/10 😘.
My favorite scenes are the fight scenes where Ga min uses his uncle's forbidden techniques. So cool.
The scene at the convenience store where study group members are eating cup noodles and Se hyeon explains the boiling point analogy.
The scene where Ga min is running in the hallway with the whole CPU lol.
The scene when Ga min goes to work with Se hyeon at the site and they have a conversation with the dad. I teared up 😢.
I might have more but these are the ones that come to mind rn.
And of course the whole last episode. What a ride!

This is so good. Phenomenal. Addicting. Ropes you in from the first ep. Hwang Minhyun baby just go off with that acting and charisma. Create your study group. You better make those fxxxers study hard. All they know is to just throw their fists 😂.

Okay. I'm sure he's a talented actor. I'll try to watch the shows you mentioned when I'm free because I liked the movie Bogota.

I watched the movie on impulse. It's my first time watching something starring Song Joongki. I'm new to his work. All I know is that he's a star actor. I see mixed opinions here. But I think the film was okay. It showed the dangerous world of the illegal goods trading. I enjoyed watching. The plot was unique. Although I think for being the lead actor and the type of character Mr. Joongki was playing, his acting was a bit weak. Just my two cents.
Anyways, I don't know much about Bogota or South America for that matter. I hope the city is not as scary IRL as they portray in the movie.

Ahn hyo seop, Kang Min hyuk and Hwang Minhyun shouldn't be in the list. They are good actors.

Really good. The show gives a lot of life lessons. Great acting especially by Uju's mom. Her acting made me tear up. Very emotional. I felt that first few eps were boring and it was hard to keep up. But I forced myself to continue watching and it got better. The cliffhangers were thrilling. I couldn't help but to click on the next episode. Next I want to start a similar show. But I don't know where to look for it.

It is a nice show overall so I don't know why I had a hard time finishing the last few eps. Watching them felt like a chore although, I enjoyed the initial eps. I had put the show on hold for months before deciding to pick it up again. I cannot pinpoint the reason why I lost interest.

The show is very grim for me. While watching, I rated it 8.5 because the murder mystery was immersive. But towards the end, maybe the story started to drag a bit, cause I was loosing interest. Then comes a vague bittersweet ending which dropped my rating to 7.
I wanna say I pity Nan ya so much. Her situation made me feel empty inside and I wanted to cry. Every single person around her in that town was toxic and an a**hole to her.

I wanna say both the writing and directing are realistic. Comedy scenes are well done. I love the satire makes me either cringe or laugh. All the cast acted well. This drama is an old gem.

I come from watching ep 1 and I'm already hooked. My favorite is Sin Cha Il, he's so sassy. I love how fierce and straight forward he is, no bullshit.
I also like how people don't take him seriously at first but when he shows them his cards, they start fearing him and begging him to save them. Hilarious.
For me, The Auditors is one of the best shows if not the best to come out in 2024, already 🔥.

I managed to finish this drama after abandoning it for months. It's difficult for me to finish shows having 20+ episodes with each episode more than 1 hour long. That's one thing. But the main reason I had to put it on hold is that the story dragged in the middle. A lot of side roles and side stories.
I liked and stayed for:
-Baek seok's character and how he bonded with Hae kang and helped her find her true self. He's selfless and a good confidant. Too bad he got stuck in a friend zone. He deserves better.
-Hae kang's redemption arc and in other words Choi Jinon's long awaited karma.
-The tension between Choi Jinon and his father. It added depth to his character.
-The camaraderie between Choi Jinon and Hyunwoo.
-The evil brother in law Tae seok's character. The actor did a really good job portraying the character.
-Choi Jinon's family dynamics. His entire family is malice. I liked how Baek seok called him off for not protecting his wife from his evil family. He never really cared until he lost her.
I rate it 7.5/10 for a good ending.

I found the only interesting thing in this drama is Chun Wontak and Lee Soonjin couple. Too bad the ship doesn't work out in the end.

Wait.... does that mean the teachers' argument scene struck a nerve?
But they want to mask it. Then it must be a serious issue in their education system. That scene was indeed uncomfortable to watch. The show is brave for shining light to this controversial matter.

I just picked up this series. The plot setting, direction, acting and characters are intriguing. It looks like I'm going to enjoy watching this one 😌.

This show is like a breeze of fresh air. I couldn't find anything decent to watch recently. Every other drama felt flat and nothing new until I find WLIS. Not to mention, the cinematography and acting by all the characters, not just the mains, is splendid.

Very true. He's like a guide to Zhu Yun. He sees the potential in her and tries to uncover her strengths. Zhu Yun admires Li Xun as she can learn so much about the world and herself beside him. They are both so young but mentally strong and their relationship is not superficial. It's meaningful.

Thanks for offering to suggest me Chinese dramas. As you have seen, I have added a few Cdramas on my list but I still feel I might miss the best ones out there cause I'm very new to Chinese shows. So I keep my eye out for the good and new ones. I'm watching Lighter and Princess and on ep 11. What you said about Li Xun is true. I've come to like his character more and more as they start to reveal info about his background. The thing is, he acts arrogant but it's just one side of his character. There are many positive aspects of him that are slowly coming to light as the story progress. Moreover, I like how they show the students face some real problems in university and try to figure a way out. The story has some strong plot points along with equally talented side characters adding depth to the show. L&P is slowly becoming my favorite since the story finally picked up pace from ep 9 onwards.
