Uff! This show is crazzyyy good. It would have been a blockbuster if it was on Netflix because it's not available in many regions. But damn I'm so happy I watched it. I'm already at ep 5 even though I started today in evening. Never thought it would be so thrilling and make me cry sm. Seulbi and jiseon's segment was so much real. Like they poked each other on where it hurts the most, she looked so much cold and controlling her emotions when he told hers. Even he got angry when she read about him. I feel his reaction was because he was seen like that, her words felt more like playful because she was treating him as a kid but he doesn't treat himself as a kid so to him it felt like a disrespect. But damn when she started crying, it was so heartbreaking and the way he tried to console her about her daughter's. The way they were solving each other's concerns, I cried sm. After culinary wars I was missing something but now I have a new obsession.
This drama is unexpectedly very good. The cinematography, music, the flow of the story, actors. I'm glad that they didn;t made the fl stupid. She is smart but things happen with everyone and she seems to be very strong and clear headed. The chemistry between them and the acting of both actors was phenomenal. Like I wasn't expecting to love this drama this much. Just at ep 7 but I'm already loving it alot. It's really difficult to execute this kind of drama and that too so smoothly, be it romance, game, mystery or plot, everything about this drama is so good. No doubt it was loved sm by everyone.
What? Are we not going to have more reunion episodes? How can they give the retreat only 2 episodes? And how can you end at such a main point? We don't even know what did hee sun did, you sly director! We need more content, they had so much fun but we got only so less content. I think I can watch them for next 10 epiosdes too. Just this cast and heesun and su bin flirting, clinging to each other. Hyun jae looked so much relaxed and fun here. I want them to create another reality show for them to have fun and fall in love again. I love this season so much.
I simply love this season. The chemistry of the cast, not in the show but off the show as well. The way they support each other, even on insta posts, the reunion, the relationships, it's so much natural and better than other season's. I feel the girls have such a great chemistry. Tbh Mina did seemed fickle minded throughout the show but she didn't seem like a bad person? More like immature at times, someone who speaks her mind without thinking. When I think about it everyone has those moments in life. No one is perfect. But she doesn't seem like a bad person. And tbh I feel min jee and she would turn to be best friends in real after the show. Because their personalities are actually very similar, honest, extrovert, straightforward.
It's actually sad that min jee and seungil didn't happen the way we anticipated, knowing how invested she was in that relationship. But I'm glad to see hee sun and subin doing well, they look so cute and make you give that youthful couple which makes everyone jealous of them.
The reunion gives us a closure of the whole show, about how they're doing and everything and it's lovely to see them together. I would love to see them doing more activities as interviews and such. It's such a bummer that the screening didn't have all together but it was still so much fun. For the first time single's inferno felt like a real dating show and not just modeling show. The drama, romance and chemistry this season was best of all. I'm worried about s6 now, Idk if anything can top this now.
honestly, i would've preferred if go eun hadn't chosen anyone. i geon dug his own grave after the paradise date…
Exactly. I feel she liked I Geon but deep down also knows he is a red flag or maybe her past experiences made he aware and she was simply trying to avoid those qualities. Because why would you take a girl on a date that you won with difficulty only to keep mentioning another girl's name all the time. It was like he likes her but has a very competitive nature, like he was the kind to make you fall for him hear over heels and then keep you hanging. That kind of feeling? That's what he was trying to do all the time after second date. If he had focused on his feelings instead, things would have been different. I would rather than go eun chose no one instead of sung min if she doesn't like him that much. But since they chose each other I hope things are good with them.
I loved last 2 eps and final choices, but they could have extended the episodes. We didn't got to see everyone's reactions and revelations to their age and jobs. I think that would have been cool. They brushed it over which I don't like that much. J feel they cut out alot on seungil and minjee. Er barley got her crumbs these episodes. I wish we got it seems commentary on the show of the cash soon.
I might be wrong but I feel the last mess up to the paradise was made by production to make drama more interesting. Because if Min ji has picked seung il and heesun, su bin, things would have become more sure and there will be no more drama for them. Because the way they picked partners was so messed up. Knowing Min Ji's personality, she would have picked Seung il but this partner selection felt more planned and the way sneaky su bin and min jee were acting. They could have developed emotions after that, but that selection felt planned to me. And damn, i-geon is so sexy! he made me chnage my mind so quick. The way he played the game and his chemistry with go eun is amazing. I feel go eun is more herself with him . From panelists reactions, I'm scared that the final selection might go different than we imagine, I really don't want that to happen. Please give us at least 4 couples this season. I want Min ji - Seung il, Su Bin - Hee Sun, Jae Jin - Jooyoung & last now I geon and go eun. Ps. Sung Hun's job revealation and age was really suprising. Thought he must be a student or someone in model side, but he looked more appealing after that, lol. I'm glad that hee sun and him went there.
"Sometimes death can be a starting point too, not just an end." Very well said.Some people might have…
Yes! It seems problematic but people has forgotten how for years he has been taking care of his bedridden wife. Her wife was suffering but so does he. It's not easy on the person taking care of the other as well. This doesn't mean he didn't loved her, but the constant depressive, gloomy, moody atmosphere make you lose something inside you. Her death made him lonlier but also allowed him to find himself again as well. Going on a trip, meeting new people, having those fluttering feelings again made him realise he is also allowed to be in love too, not ending his life just dragging his old life.
It was such an amazing drama and I'm not sure why the ratings are so low. Is it because it's a slow paced, slice…
One more thing, I loved dahyun in this show. Haven't seen her other drama but truly surprised to see her here. It felt just like her, so much relatable, such a natural acting. I feel if she picks good roles like this, she will surely do good in acting field too. She was so much natural in this.
It was such an amazing drama and I'm not sure why the ratings are so low. Is it because it's a slow paced, slice of life kind of story? Because in its genre it's a really good drama, I finished it in 2 days. Loved it sm. The characters were so real and relatable, the twists were crazy. And they showed mourning, like people suffering. Sometimes death can be a point of start too. It's not an end. I have seen such an example closely, my aunt who became blind and was very sick for a long time, depressed, her family has suffered alot along with her. After so much suffering, when she passed away, they were all sad but in a way it also allowed them to live their lives again as well. The boy who was by his mother's side, taking care of her, got to finally go on a trip for the first time after that. It might sound crazy but yes, this drama is too real at so many levels and loved how they tried to break stereotypes, trying to understand everyone's povs. I still can't get over how beautiful the drama is. I feel it's so much underrated and needs more attention.
the remaining chinese trainees will get a chance to sign up again for another survival show like bp2.....it's…
Tbh then they should have made seperate shows from start. Like they treated c trainees bad initially and removed so many people and now creating another collective show. They should have given chance to c trainees properly from first season itself.
Respectfully, this was far worse than Season 1. The name? Hello??? ALPHA DRIVE ONE?? Are you fu*king kidding me?…
ZB1 tbh was the peak of boys planet. I was so invested in it, so many good contestants with different personalities and knew almost everyone in last 16. I like last line up for this one tbh. Mostly good contestants that I was supporting especially zhang ji hao and xin long got to debut, so I was so happy. Yes, so many good ones couldn't but I feel there isn't any contestant in last line up when wasn't deserving. Their skills can be varying compared to others, some great ones, but the final contestants did showed their worth in performances and were shining in the show. So yes I believe they deserve what they got. Somehow this show always leaves us with heartache but I always come back again to get hurt.
Just watched last episode! Tell you the truth, it's my first time watching a final till the end. Mostly I get too bored that I just brush off and watch finale rankings. This time I controlled myself from be spoiled about the final ranking and watched the whole episode. Tbh, it's my first time that I wasn't disappointed by the final rankings. Though many good contestants didn't make through it and I still feel sad seeing them going with nothing but memories, but at least there aren't any contestants this time that I don't like. He Xin Long, my fav, I cried so much when he was selected and Zhang Ji Hao. I was so happy for him. Didn't know when I started to notice him and route for him. Maybe after tambourine? That was his first memorable performance to me. I like all contestants tbh, watched through the whole last long episode. Idk why so many people gave such low rankings to the season. Definitely, many good contestants couldn't make it to the final rank, but at least all those who made it were good enough, they deserved their places. They showed their worth to the team and I think they all deserve it. Name was kinda....Idk weird at first but after An Xin keep mentioning, it doesn't sound that bad? 😂😂 Maybe I'm getting immune to these weird names of the groups so I wasn't that surprised.
I agree with what you said about Yumeki. He may be a good dancer and dance coach, but there's no "spark".…
Are you talking about Jang Jihao or Li jiahao? I'm a mess with names, sorry. 😅
But if you're talking about Jang Jihao, the one from chains performance, I really hope he can debut too. Through this chains performance, I also realised how much potential he has. He reminded me of taemin, the way he smiles and his dance line. He is so humble and has a positive attitude too. Yes, for Yumeki I also felt that he did came to far, compared to his potential as an idol. Initially he did showed more improvement but honestly, none of his performances on stage stood out that much. He is great as a dancer and choreographer but idol is not his thing. I'm sad that li zihao had left, his personality was one of the reasons that keep the show entertaining.
The show is good, performances and contestants are good. But I'm really tired of just pretty face votings. Chen liyu, tbh, he is really average compared to many others, doesn't have much personality in performances either. I feel bad to say but happened same with yumeki as well, he is really good as a dancer but in performances, he literally becomes invisible. He is not that good as an idol. Haven't watched full 16 top contestants list but Chen liyu as 10th rank really disappointed me. There are few other over hyped contestants as well but I feel good ones get more chances than just so called pretty faces. Initially sang won, I also felt overhyped but by the time, his attitude, personality, performances, really showed his true potential and now I'm rooting for him as well. I also wish for Leo, jun min, xinlong to get in top 8 as well. I hope li zihao gets chance as well, his personality and performances are really good. But I doubt the k-beauty standards will accept him as an idol in a group, they prefer more pretty faces than actual talents.
Not sure if this show is considered a success in some ways or another, but it appears that both ZY and CL are…
Not sure about it as a novel adaptation but just as a drama it's getting sm attention and their chemistry is being praised. I came here not knowing about the adaptation and even heard about AI face replacement and was little worried. I don't even watch much costume dramas but I did, All because of their chemistry and hype around the show and it was all worth it. As a show only, it's amazing and it's very rare for a FL to be a general, be in gender bender roles and actually looks convincing. Her acting, the way she carries herself, the action scenes, everything is marvelous, and chemistry and story' is definitely the best part.
Try Scent of Time, one of her best dramas, she chooses some amazing roles!
I watched that one too. Though dropped it halfway, it was a great drama but felt a little drag later half. Otherwise, great story and acting too. She is indeed a great actress.
Oh for heavens sake. My takeaway from your interesting post is Love Me Love My Voice! I didn’t put that one…
Me too. It was so refreshing to see how different her personality is in both dramas. I have seen her in other dramas too but that drama really left me in awe with her and now this one. Gonna be my new obsession.
But damn when she started crying, it was so heartbreaking and the way he tried to console her about her daughter's. The way they were solving each other's concerns, I cried sm. After culinary wars I was missing something but now I have a new obsession.
It's actually sad that min jee and seungil didn't happen the way we anticipated, knowing how invested she was in that relationship. But I'm glad to see hee sun and subin doing well, they look so cute and make you give that youthful couple which makes everyone jealous of them.
