Plot focused on the wrong things

This show was good but definitely has its flaws. The best part of the story was the relationship between Kelvin and Veir. I think that storyline from the trailer, along with FortPeat, is the reason we all tuned into this. The relationship between Nana and Lalin was decent. The storyline with all the company stuff I think is where the show had its weakest moments.

Kelvin and Veir:
They are the strongest and best part of the show like I mentioned before. I loved seeing how their relationship changed. I loved seeing Kelvin lose it and kidnap Veir and just be crazy. It did eventually into a real relationship which was nice as well. Now I did think we were going to get more of Kelvin being crazy and more of Veir being locked up by him. Just based on the trailer, it felt like that would be more of the focus of the show and it wasn't at all. Even just their relationship as a whole seemed to be put on the backburner in the later episodes to focus on other plots that were just not as good. You can tell they loved each other in the end and I'm glad Kelvin went and got help during the six-month time skip. Do I think they should be together? No. I think Veir deserves someone a little more mentally stable, but it's fine. Peat and Fort killed these roles as always and have such incredible chemistry with each other!!

Nana and Lalin:
I'm always happy to see girls as the second couple in a BL, but they always seem to flop a little bit with their storyline, and I felt this one was no different. They just simply didn't get enough screentime for me to care a lot about them. I liked the girls and liked them together, don't get me wrong, but they didn't get enough time that was just the two of them. I think if they had more time I would've cared a lot more.

The company and family drama:
This plot just took up way too much of the show. It was pretty boring and so drawn out. The characters like the dad, the brother, the friends, etc. from all of this were so two dimensional and so unlikable. I didn't like a single one. I didn't really care about this plot line to begin with and in the last few episodes it was the main focus, and I just found myself so bored and annoyed. The wrap up of it all was also just so unsatisfying too. We didn't even get to see Ken get caught. We were just told about it which is such lazy writing. If they weren't going to show us, they should've just had him get caught in the warehouse.

Overall, I think this show wasn't as good as we all hoped and I think it's mainly because the trailer and promotions were so misleading. I think they should've main Kelvin's toxicity with Veir a way heavier focus on the show and it would've been way better and more widely liked.

Too long

This show was pretty cute and wholesome, but honestly quite boring. The story of our two main characters so sweet and I loved how they helped each other grow as people and as artists. It was so beautiful seeing Deok Chul follow and live out his dreams as a ballerino. The dancing in this was well done too. Ballet is just so beautiful. The show is just a little long in my opinion, so it felt kind of drawn out. Eun Ho's storyline to me was the most boring thing about the show. She was so uninteresting and so was her whole storyline. Overall, it's not bad but I can definitely see why a lot of people don't care for it.

Put Mingee on season 6

I really liked the winter getaway more than the rest of the reunion to be honest, and I loved that the getaway was mainly just Heesun and Subeen. They have such incredible chemistry, and I was so happy to see more of them. I will say it did end very abruptly, like there was supposed to be more and there just isn't. I do wish we got to see a bit more from the people who left together but didn't make it, but I'm glad we got an update of where they were all at during their screenings.

I hope Subeen and Heesun as well as Jaejin and Jooyoung stay together!! I know they're all still together as I'm writing this!

Put Mingee on season 6, she deserves better!

A beautiful and tragic story

Finally checked out this movie and I am so glad I did!! If I could give this more than 10 stars, I would. This is an incredibly beautifully tragic film. I went into this knowing nothing more than the title and knowing people cried when they watched it and nothing else. I'm really glad I went into it that way, so everything was a surprise to me.

I loved both Jae Won and Seo Yun so much. They were both such likable characters. I love how kindhearted Jae Won was and how fun Seo Yun was. They had the cutest relationship with each other too! I knew something was up with Jae Won as soon as he gave that weird excuse to why he didn't like sports.

They're story is so beautifully tragic, it's the only way I can think to describe it. I sobbed during the last 25 or so minutes. I haven't cried that hard over a piece of media since Mr. Plankton or Life Gives You Tangerines. I had a feeling this story would end sadly but didn't realize just how emotional it would be. This film is perfect and I have absolutely no notes. Huge shout out the actors as well, this was incredible.

JUSTICE FOR HYUNJAE

This is the first season I've checked out of this show, and I have to say I really liked it! I'm not the biggest watcher of reality tv but my friend suggested this one, so I wanted to try it. I have seen part of the reunion as I'm writing this, but I'm going simply off of the show itself.

I really enjoyed this! The games were really fun, I especially enjoyed the guy game in the water. I liked most of the cast, some I thought were boring but I'll get into that. I do wish they didn't spend so much time on Mina Sue and Goeun. They both just got annoying pretty quickly and I was tired of seeing them. I was pretty happy as well with how all the people were coupled up!

For the cast!

Starting with the guys:
-Subeen: He was top three most attractive men on the show for me. I really liked him at first and then was a little unsure about him, then really loved him in the end! He's really sweet and I'm glad we got to see him open up more as the show went on. I think he's super charming and has great chemistry with everyone, but I'm glad he ended up with Heesun in the end.

-Seungil: The seasons it boy. He was also super attractive to me, especially his smile/smirk. He was so kind from the very start which made me really like him. I was rooting for him and Mingee the entire time as well, so I was happy they left together. My favorite moment of his is when him and Mina were in paradise and he called her out for everything she was doing. He really spoke for the audience there.

-Sunghun/Sam: I'm not going to lie I hated this man until his paradise with Heesun. I feel like that was the first time we got to see his true personality and learn more about him. Before that we only really saw him with Mina and I just didn't care for his vibes. In the end he did grow on me but he still wasn't even in my top 5. I wasn't shocked he left with Mina either. Bro had the worst luck ever throughout the show.

Hyeonwoo: He is such a big teddy bear and such a sweetheart. I think the people watching/fans were way too harsh on him for his paradise with Goeun. It obviously didn't go well, but I think he was just nervous. I do think he was a bit of a boring guy, but he was sweet. I wasn't shocked he left by himself. Major props to him too for giving up his paradise too.

Sungmin: I loved this little yapper. He was in my top 5 choices from start to finish. I was a bigger fan of him than I think most were. I wasn't shocked when Goeun chose him either because I knew there had to be a reason she couldn't let him go. Overall I really enjoyed when he was on screen.

Igeon: I recognized him right away from the show the Trunk, so I thought it was cool an actor was on here. That being said, I was not a fan of him to be honest. He was way too cocky for my liking from the start. He just seemed kind of fake to me as well. I think it was maybe because he tried to act cool and nonchalant all the time. He had incredible chemistry with Goeun right from the start, but his cockiness (and talking about another woman constantly) is what bit him in the ass in the end.

Hyunjae: MY NUMBER ONE PICK FROM THE BEGINNING. These girls must've been blind. I still do not understand how he was the least popular out of all the men. Him and Subeen were the most attractive part of the entire cast to me. He also just has such a charming, sweet, and comforting personality. I was happy to see he was one of the most popular amongst the fans/people watching because I really didn't get why no one wanted him. I knew Jooyoung wouldn't pick him in the end, but I still felt bad for him. If these girls don't want him. I'll gladly take him.

Jaejin: Straight up I didn't like this man from start to finish. I never understood why he was the most popular and I still don't. His "I don't care" attitude annoyed me so much. I love him with Jooyoung don't get me wrong. I think they're perfect together. That being said he just annoyed me the entire time.

Now for the girls:
Mingee: The it girl of the season!! My number one girl from start to finish! I love her so much! She's such a baddie! She was the most attractive girl to me too. I loved her chemistry with Seungil so much. I love that if she wants something, she will fight to get it. I feel bad that she had a bit of hard time throughout the series, but I was very happy her and Seungil left together in the end.

Mina Sue: When she first came in up until the truth game, I loved her. I thought she was stunning and she gave off classy vibes...but omg was that vibe wrong. Her constant back and forth was so irritating. I'm totally for wanting to explore other options in a situation like this, that being said she was too much. They just spent way too much time on her. She ended up as one of my least favorite girls for sure. I wasn't shocked she left with Sunghun, but I do believe she just went with him because none of her other options were left.

Goeun: She's stunning but I'm not going to lie she's a little boring. I loved when we got to see her cute and funny side, I loved that part of her, but she didn't show it very much. Her love square with the boys grew old so quickly. Like Mina, they spent way too much time on her. She was never very open on how she was feeling with any of them at all. She clearly had the best chemistry with Igeon, but I don't blame her at all for not choosing him and I wasn't shocked about her choosing Sungmin either.

Heesun: When she first showed up, I thought she was pretty, but I didn't care for her very much. I was shocked how she wasn't popular though because she is so pretty. She grew on me a lot throughout the season and in the end I really loved her. This poor girl had awful luck throughout the show. I loved her two paradise trips because we got to see so much more of her. I was so happy she left with Subeen as well, they easily became a favorite couple of mine.

Jooyoung: I kept getting her and Yejin mixed up in the beginning. Not because of their looks, but because they were both so boring that they were practically invisible. I legit forgot they were there. Her chemistry with Jaejin was fantastic, they felt like a married couple instantly. I was really happy they left together. I wasn't shocked that she didn't choose Hyunjae, personally I think she was never really even going to give him a real chance because she felt so sure of Jaejin.

Yejin: Same thing I said before about Jooyoung. I don't know why she was even here. She had no screen time because she was SO boring. She never even wanted anyone really either so she was pointless. At least Jooyoung had her love triangle, Yejin straight up was there for nothing.

Haeun: She was fun and cute but I also would kind of forget she was there. She got no screen time after she first entered. She still chose Jaejin in the end but we didn't see her try to pursue him at all after the paradise and she was close with Igeon but we didn't even see that either. She was the most forgettable "stir things up" person I've ever seen.

Overall I loved watching the show and hated waiting each week for the new episodes. I can't wait for season six!

The least threatening zombie show ever

This is a zombie show where almost nothing happens. The cast is just way too big for starters. For how many characters there are, almost none of them die. This show didn't have any actual intense moments or moments that kept you on the edge of your seat, and it should since it's a survival show!

Here are some things that take away any intensity
-It only takes place over a couple days, and the water and electricity are on for most of it, so there's already not much to worry about in terms of survival there
-A lot of the zombies are blind, so as long as you're quiet there's no threat there.
-Super easy to kill the zombies
-The zombies still go about their lives as if they're still alive and then all huddle in one area with their leader once a day, so if you avoid those places once again, you're safe.
-The zombies have feelings so if they remember you, you're safe

Some other things I didn't like about it
-Again, just way too many characters
-Almost none of the characters were given any backstory so I didn't care if they died
-For how many characters there were, a very small handful were likeable characters, and even they were just not as stupid or annoying as the rest
-The ending...wth was that ending? It didn't feel like a season finale and felt more like an episode ending. Also, it doing a one-month time skip...don't get me started.
-The group of people who were in the greenhouse were given so little screen time that I forgot they existed until they showed up again.
-Ning. I just hated her and was rooting for her death.
-Way too much explaining and theorizing was happening and way too little action

Some things I liked
-The cast! Loved seeing so many familiar faces
-The blood and effects on the zombies were great
-Had a great opening. I loved that it just threw you right in

I could honestly keep going, especially if I went into more of the characters of the show. This show was just not good. Thai horror and suspense are usually so good, so my expectations were quite high, and this was just severely disappointing. Nothing against any of the actors at all, I think it was just a bad script.
