Love that it's over
I absolutely hated this show from start to finish. The only reason I give this a 1.5 instead of a 1 is because of two reasons: the mermaid scenes were actually filmed in the water, and they trained with the tails; and secondly because of the scene in the finale where Phraphai went crazy was actually good.This show was so terribly bad that I genuinely cannot say enough bad things about it and could go on all day. I'm just going to list the reasons it was awful.
1. All the acting was terrible (except for Phraphai's scene in the finale I previously mentioned)
2. The main leads had 0 chemistry at all. Nava and Phraphai had more chemistry than the other two ever did
3. So many unnecessary characters whose names I couldn't even tell you if I tried. Didn't really need more than the main five to be honest
4. The music,,,whoever did the music for this should never work in music again. That may sound harsh but the abrupt transitions between songs and the music not fitting scenes were just terrible. Someone with garage band could do better.
5. The main couple's relationship was so empty. They never talked about anything. they felt more like friends with benefits because their relationship had no depth at all.
6. Not enough time was spent on Ping and Phana's relationship. This couple could've been quite a likeable and strong couple if they got more than like 30 minutes out of an entire 8 hours spent on them. They should've either had more time or just not been a thing at all.
7. The plot felt pointless especially with how the show ended. I almost wish it ended with a tragedy to make it feel more worth it. I'm not just saying that because I didn't like the show either, I just think it would've made more sense for the plot if one or both of then died in the end or they just didn't end up together.
8. The whole show just felt like nothing was happening the entire time. This was only eight episodes and even that felt way too long.
I could actually keep going but these were definitely my biggest and most consistent complaints.
DO NO WATCH! NOT EVEN A GOOD CRINGE WATCH!
JUST STRAIGHT UP BAD!

Sea of spiciness!
Of course the chemistry between these two is incredible!! It always is! I liked the story of this as well as their characters in this. Loved how sassy Rak was and how chill of a guy Mut was. It made their dynamic really fun to watch. THE SPICE IS TOP TIER!!! Honestly the best part of this show!Love these two and will watch anything they are in.

Happiness? More like I'm bored
For this being a zombie show, it was so boring. It felt more like a show about covid, but they just made covid zombies instead to make it more interesting except it didn't. There was hardly any action at all, and again for being a zombie show, it hardly ever felt like they were in danger. It was never intense or anything and felt like it was super easy to survive. I did like the main two characters, but I wish we got to see their romance bloom more. The whole show just felt kind of boring and unsatisfying. This was in my watch later for a while and I wish it just stayed there.Was this review helpful to you?
I love how the story played out!
Pretty interesting concept. I loved seeing the main couple as parents because I feel like it's something we don't see too often. The actors had great chemistry as well. The story really gets you interested pretty early on, and it keeps you guessing the entire time. I've rewatched it a couple times and even on rewatch you're still on the edge of your seat.Definitely better than a lot of crime dramas! Some scenes might be disturbing to some people, so be aware of that!

Something is off about this show
I liked the story of this show overall and love a lot of the actors that are in this, especially Cha Woo-min. There was something about this show though that made it hard to get through for me. I don't know if it was the pacing or what, but something made it take me a bit to get through it. I loved Dong Ju's character so much! He was the best part of the show without a doubt.Always love seeing my boo thang (Cha Woomin) in anything <3

Is this a dating show or casting call?
This was really cute, and I really liked all the boys...I just wish we got to see more couple moments rather than all group moments. It started off so well in the first couple episodes. It felt like a dating show, which is what they advertised it as, but then it felt more like they were auditioning to be the next BL couple. Why was there only one solo date throughout the whole show? Like I said I loved all the boys especially Shark and Kong, I just needed more time with just the pairings and less group stuff.I do like all the couples that ended up together and wish the best for everyone!

Bittersweet story that's a little odd
This story concept is pretty unique. It is definitely a little odd to say the least. I liked the two main characters. The acting was great, and I liked the chemistry between the actors as well. I think its pacing is good too. Stories like this sometimes I feel can drag on and this one didn't. This is a very bittersweet story and very enjoyable to watch.Was this review helpful to you?

We LOVE PREGNANT MEN
I love that this show really dove into all the ABO stuff. I think if you're going to do an ABO show you have to really go for it, and this show definitely did.I think the four main characters were really interesting. I loved them all for different reasons and the actors killed it. I loved seeing Wenlang's growth throughout the series! I wish Hua Yong could've had some kind of character development, but he didn't and some people never change, so I guess it's okay.
My only complaint is the ending. I wish we got more from Gao Tu and Wenlang. I wish we got to see them have an actual conversation about everything. I wanted them to end up together but even if they didn't it would've been nice for them to get more screentime towards the end. It just felt unsatisfying. I also thought the time jump was abrupt and made it so certain things were skipped over that shouldn't have been. They're ending just felt like the creators didn't care about it anymore towards the end.
This show was missing baby bumps. Wanted to see them with actual baby bellies.
I really liked this series though! Definitely different and very interesting! Can't wait to see the actors in things in the future!

This show is flying way too far under the radar!!
This show is so good! I loved how much it messed with your brain and question who was guilty and who was innocent. They had the perfect amount of red haring's that made you question everything while still giving you enough information where you weren't completely lost. It had great twists and turns and loved the ending too! Always love seeing Park Hae Soo as well, so I was very happy to see him in this!Was this review helpful to you?
THIS IS SLEPT ON
This show is SLEPT ON! I've never seen anyone talk about it and didn't see it get promoted at all and it is so good! I loved the mystery of this show so much. I really want it to have a season two, but I doubt it will because of how little popularity it has.I loved Yun Ina and Han Saem so much as characters. Ina was such an interesting character to watch. I loved how you questioned if she was the killer or not multiple times throughout the series. Han Saem was fun to watch as a detective as well! I loved their banter together too.
The mystery of the murderer(s) and what the puzzle pieces meant was so cool. I loved trying to figure what was happening. I did solve who the killer was pretty early on but that's pretty typical of me, so I don't think it's necessarily super easy to guess.
I don't have any complaints about the show at all and truly loved it from start to finish. Highly recommend!

Please give us a third season, we beg
I loved this season as well! Once again, the relationships Sieun builds in this season are just so fun to watch! I love all the new friends he makes! I even really liked some of the new bad guys this season! I love that every character is more than a 'bad guy' or 'good guy'. No one is perfect and every character is so fleshed out. I love all the action scenes this season as well, especially the one on the roof. This show never fails to amaze me in how it can make you feel every emotion. The actors all did incredible of course!I did enjoy season one more than this one, but I'd still give this one a 10/10

So much fun!
Loved how fun this show was! There were some deeper and more emotional moments as well but overall was such a fun series! The characters in Spirit Fingers as well as both sets of best friends were a lot of fun to watch. They all had great chemistry together as well!I loved the relationships between the two main couples. There were definitely moments where I got annoyed at the girls, but only in a couple moments so it didn't bother me too bad.
Overall, a super fun watch and would recommend! Loved seeing Cha Woomin in this as well!
Also, I have to mention all the costumes and especially the sets! That was so fun to see each episode!

This show is basically p*rn
I hated the main two characters so much. It felt like they were trying to be Boss and Noeul. I don't know if that was intentional or not, but that's the vibe it gave. And it did not work...at all. They were just very unlikable together and apart. I wish we got more time with the B couple because I thought they were more interesting. Though I feel like Yoon needs to work on his acting a little bit because I didn't always feel very much emotion from him. That being said, I enjoyed watching him more than Boat and Oat. The spice in this show was insane. Just straight up p*rn sometimes. I'm here for the spice so I don't mind.Was this review helpful to you?
Very bloody and I love it
I LOVED THIS! I love that they didn't hold back on the violence at all! Super bloody and gory which is what I was hoping for, and it didn't disappoint. Loved the main character so much and enjoyed seeing him get his revenge on everyone. I think the story wrapped up really well. I think it was the perfect length too.Was this review helpful to you?

Hot women and a mystery plot line? Sign me up
I really like this show a lot! I loved the mystery of why Baikhaw was doing what she was doing as well as seeing all the different relationships between the main characters.The relationship between Baikhaw and Tulip was so interesting to watch! I loved seeing them become close friends and then it all falls apart. I'm not going to lie when I started the show, I thought their relationship was going to turn into a lesbian relation and not sisters which threw me off, but I didn't mind it. This may be controversial (I'm not sure) but I think for the most part Baikhaw was actually doing a lot of really good things for Tulip. Tulip's parents were super toxic (later finding out they were just awful people), Wawwa was super toxic, and Tao was such a good friend to her. I was glad to see her parents and Wawwa leave her life.
Baikhaw is such a good character! I love that she's not just evil because she's evil. I love that she had complexity to her! I think the things she was able to get away with her reasonable as well. She was really smart but still definitely made dumb decisions, like being caught on cameras, or going after obvious people. I love that she tried to get tulips parents as well as Wawwa out of tulips life. I hate that used Tao, but I also have to respect it. If you got a yearner you might as well use him! LOVE that she killed Wawwa and Q!! Also shout out to Pat! Absolutely love watching her act!
Tulip's character was very back and forth for me on whether I liked her or not. There were moments I really liked her but also times I didn't. There were a lot of moments to be honest that Tulip just felt bitchy if I'm being honest. I do wish she forgave Tao in the end, but I also understand a bit why she didn't. I just wish she could've realized more that he was used by Baikhaw too. I feel bad for everything she went to because she definitely didn't deserve any of it. I have to say this show made me fall so hard for Emi! Love her!
Tao...I love him. He is best boy. Did he make mistakes? Yes, but I think a lot of them come down to the fact that he was being used and manipulated by Baikhaw. We saw pretty quickly that he didn't like what he was doing to Tulip at all. I do believe he genuinely did fall for Tulip in the end as well. Loved what he did to Wawwa! She deserved it. I hope he can find peace and can one day reconnect with Tulip, even just as friends. Also, his parents were shit.
Namo was such an underused character in my opinion that he almost felt like a throwaway character. They brought up that he had a thing for Tao and never did anything with that, which was disappointing to be honest. I don't understand how such a nice guy could be friends with Wawwa or even Tulip to be honest. I just feel like they could've done so much more with his character and they didn't. I'm glad he came in to save the day and shot Baikhaw with no hesitation, but I would've had the same (or even better) reaction if Tao did it. Glad he was okay in the end though!
Wawwa...literally fuck this bitch. I cheered when she died. She was such a toxic friend and such a bad person. She left Tulip alone, while she was drunk might I add, with this dude that Tulip made very clear she didn't like and then said dude almost assaulted her and would've if it wasn't for Baikhaw! WTF?! AND SHE NEVER APOLAGISED FOR IT! She was also an alcoholic. I was just so glad when died. She deserved it. I'm glad Baikhaw was the one to do it. I literally have nothing good to say about her at all.
I hope Tulip's parents rot to be honest. Maybe Baikhaw is alive, maybe not. The story definitely ended to where she possibly could be so I would be down for a season two. Overall, I really loved this show and highly recommend!
