The Tempest Ep 4 and 5 ReviewI honestly can’t put into words how amazing these two episodes were. This series is shaping up to be one of the best of 2025 no doubt. The tension between the ML and FL is so intense it feels like every five seconds you’re drowning in their dynamic. Ju Ji Hyun has truly nailed her comeback with this role.As a viewer I’m convinced Stella Young is the mistress and there’s a high chance the child is Ju Ji Hyun’s. The peaches line from her dying husband basically gave it away.They tried to keep the suspense around Stella’s identity but the clues were easy to piece together especially with the Scotland pictre where his parents went and where Stella imported materials for North Korea.What really stands out is how well the American storyline is handled. Usually Kdramas make foreign scenes feel awkward or cringe but here the execution is solid and believable. Also the president’s kindness toward the FL makes me wonder if thre's something suspicious like why does she care that much about her.I’m so excited how they’ll prevent the war from breaking out in the coming episodes.The plots within plots and the hidden motive it's just brilliant
Just finished Twelve and honestly one of the worst dramas I’ve watched this year. Even the huge star cast couldn’t save it they served nothing other than looks.I had a bit of hope after episodes 5&6 but the last two completely buried that in the sand. I was ready to drop it after episode 4 but since it only had 8 episodes I pushed through especially when Ogwi and Mirr’s love story started. I’ll give it a 7/10 which it honestly doesn’t deserve but since everyone at least served visuals I’m being generous.And seriously how did they even have the guts to hint at a season 2?
I understand that you're just giving your opinion, which you are entitled to do of course, as am I. In my opinion,…
Thanks I really appreciate you saying that. I respect your right not to believe and I don’t want to force any religious views on anyone. I value the mutual respect between us as we can disagree but it’s important to do so without dismissing each other’s convictions.
but in ep 1 he is looking at YR and saying this is how our story began.... YR is sooo innocent and such a good…
love how after first ep you came up with all this conclusions about miss Korea😂 So let's see your prediction turns out right or not and tbh right now I can't neither agree or disagree with you coz I lil bit feel the same
Watched the first ep of the new Kdrama Hundred Memories and wow the chemistry between the two female leads is so strong I honestly thought it might turn into a GL until the male lead finally appeared.Both actresses look gorgeous.The male leads are equally stunning.Story already has me hooked I can’t wait to see how the girls chase their dreams,whether the guys actually become boxers,who the male lead ends up with, and why the girl ran away from home. Plus cinematography is breathtaking.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts I hear you. For me this isn’t acceptable life and death belong to God and we shouldn’t take that decision into our own hands. Medically assisted dying is still suicide and in all religions suicide is forbidden and seen as a grave even unforgivable sin. I understand that suffering is awful but it being normalised in dramas isn't good at all since dramas play a big role in shaping people’s thoughts and mindsets
@Rumsha, you really should post this word for word in a Review. Leave it here too. I don't read reviews before…
Aww thank you I’m so glad you enjoyed my review! I was worried it might be too long but your encouragement really motivates me to share more since I usually don’t.
I just finished watching the Netflix series You and Everything Else and honestly, it was so good. The acting was amazing and both of the female leads looked absolutely gorgeous. The series itself was really strong everything was portrayed so beautifully especially the way it showed how two people can love each other deeply yet still carry so much hate at the same time. I loved how Eun Jung and Sang Yeon’s friendship was explored. A lot of people might say they didn’t like Sang Yeon, but for me, her character felt so real and relatable. No matter what, I can’t bring myself to dislike her. Eun Jung was shown as kind and loving, while Sang Yeon, who had always craved love but never received it, suddenly didn’t know how to handle it when it came from her friend. That contrast was powerful. The way the drama portrayed how two best friends liking the same guy can completely shake and even break their friendship was also very well done. The show had been emotional from the start, but as someone who rarely cries, I didn’t shed a tear in the earlier episodes. Still, the last two episodes truly hit me they were an emotional rollercoaster. If I could change something, I’d say the series should have been shorter, maybe 10-12 episodes instead of 15. Episodes 4–8 dragged a little, while episodes 12–14 felt fast-paced and intense which I loved. One thing I didn’t like, though, was the recurring theme of medically assisted suicide. I’ve noticed it in several Korean dramas this year, and I find it disappointing that it’s being presented as something acceptable. At episode 8, I thought I’d only rate it a 7/10 since it felt slow, but by the end it really grew on me. I especially enjoyed the last few episodes, so I’m giving it an 8.5/10. My only real wish is that Sang Yeon’s character was explored more deeply we only got her perspective briefly toward the end, and I think her side of the story deserved more time throughout the series.
can someone please explain the ending to me like what happened to the son in future was he alive was his contact saved in the girls mobile or not please 😭😭idk y at the end fifteen mins by English subtitles were not working 😭
Omg ep 5 of Twelve was amazing! I actually watched today planning to drop it since it had been disappointing,but this ep hooked me. The love story with my man with wings has me invested. Honestly, I like Ma Rok way more than Taesan he feels stronger and I wish he was leader. The drama wastes its huge cast if there were 6–8 angels instead of 12 it’d be tighter. Half the show’s over and still no real bonding which is sad. But finally I’ve found a reason to continue which is the love story.
Omg I was so hyped for this one and the first two eps didn’t disappoint(mostly)The concept is amazing, and I love how every character gets solid screentime instead of the story revolving around just one lead. The pacing though… With only 12 eps, max 30–45 mins each (and me watching on 2x = basically 15 mins 😭), things feel rushed. Honestly wish each ep was longer so the story could breathe. The villain’s entry?? Wow. My man with wings came in serving dark, dangerous, and way too hot . I fear he might get stuck in the same type of role later, but for now… I’m not complaining. The cast is saving the drama. Their acting and star power are carrying hard. But tbh, I think most of the budget went into the cast, because the action scenes look cheap The tiger fight looked fake and the VFX during the villain’s entrance wasn’t appetizing at all. Overall till the first two episodes all I have to say is that Unique plot + strong cast chemistry = keeping me hooked. But if the action/display don’t level up, it’ll be the cast alone carrying this show.
The writer really screwed up the ending. one of the worst endings I have ever seen. like how did the poor girl didn't end with the brown hair guy like they deserved each other The swimmer was a psycho like he loves the other sister for years but fell for a more sweet version of her nooo like wth. the ending was shit
I’ll give it a 7/10 which it honestly doesn’t deserve but since everyone at least served visuals I’m being generous.And seriously how did they even have the guts to hint at a season 2?
