Island Queen

I’m becoming disappointed with this one. Unfortunately it’s heading towards the lakorn cemetery. I will be faithful because I love the leads and the symbolism between the sun and the star. But there’s not enough depth to the characters and plot, at least they should be throwing us more clues and glimpses about the past. These 2 last episodes have been way too cringe. Way too sanitary and honky-dory. Ryu is the one that’s keeping me around.
The kitchen part sucked.Specially throwing a boiling stock into a plastic bag. Wasting prawns as if they were cheap. That’s not the way it goes in real life. The young sister is overplaying her role. The constant smiling is annoying, hopefully the character will develop more depth. But I doubt it. So if you need something vanilla after a crappy day. Go for it.

Saw half the episode, the English dubbing is stiff and terrible. It’s dubbed? Or badly acted?
Will continue watching after work.

I honestly can’t think of a season 2 I’ve liked. Can you?

Or open… Good for a season 2, so the story can FF 5 years at least.

I feel the 7.4 rating is way low. Just the cinematography is beautiful. I can imagine how hard it was. Definitely looks like a remake of 180 degrees. But the tension is there. I’m satisfied if nothing is said. There is no need. They knew and felt it. So do we!❤️

Can’t get through this! Ready for spoilers! Can’t stand her…..

He probably is. But it would be a good plot twist!😂

Both characters are very well fleshed out. I watched again all episodes. There are clues along the way that takes us to this separation. Jin is a young “puppy” who has truly from the very beginning given his heart and love to Akin. On the other hand Akin has at least 10 years in the business he’s proud and jaded. He’s been working non stop to reach the top. He likes Jin, but he knows the nature of the business and it bothers him see a newbie taking his place. He’s struggling with his own real emotions.
I would not be surprised that this Jonny has been sent from Jin’s agency to keep them apart.
So I’m not judging. Both their characters are being played extremely well!

Episode 7 is a cringe fest. Was expecting more from this. It’s only 10 episodes?

What I like up to now is the sincere chemistry between them. How Jin who is head over heels for Akin is very perceptive and caring. The script is on point. All the emotions are beautifully projected. 🫶👏👏👏

A trashy attempt to cheapen a good Thai series’s. This could be done a lot better. Hate these short formats. The only good from this is that it gives opportunities to young starting talent.

I also feel the story is overused and not for Earth Mix.

Don’t think I can stomach this. The problem is the story itself . It was a success in Japan, but the emotional temperature fails in Thailand years later. I dislike Earths characters continued naive absentmindedness. I’m used to see him in more emotionally complex roles. I did laugh, but it becomes redundant after a while. After enjoying stories like Moonlight Chicken and Tale of 1000 stars. Their manager’s decision to do this project failed them.
It’s not terrible. But fans who faithfully follow an Earth and Mix can tell. Will keep waiting….

Agreed. Not cool at all.

Ajá….And then what happened? There seems to be a “trend” of short BL dramas coming out of Korea. Sukfilms is presenting vignettes of gay life moments and situations. I feel they have the talent to offer a completed story even with an open, happy or sad ending.
Not watching these again.

I’m not into idol dramas but gave this one a chance. I admit to FF through some parts. But I generally feel that it had some depth to the story. I’m sure it brought forward issues within the industry. I would recommend it. 8.5

Soft with underlying meanings. Liking it very much.

The story was decent. The comedy aspect tried too hard to be cool. Found the female lead underwhelming. Kang Joon was spectacular. Run of the mill k-drama. Not much believable romance.

I generally dislike these mini series but seeing that some episodes got to 16-18 minutes, I decided to give it a try. It was a textbook story. I must credit all young actors who truly gave it their all.

For me, it might be watching almost daily after a heavy workload. Maybe I’ll stop and binge it in May when I’m on vacation. I’m truly not getting it. After watching kill me love me. I was looking forward to a profound character for Xue Yi.
