The game continue...
This drama leave a strong impression in the first part. And for me this drama end it with strong point. With a little dissapointment in the end...After Choi Yi Jae (YJ) learn the thread that connect all of his 'death' he started to plan for revenge & plan everything carefully... With the plan he also unravel the big conspiracy & corruption in the police department & other important government department. Make 'him' quite important for the public.
But the reality hit him hard when he dead once again & Death asked him: "Who is he...?" Yeah... In the end whose people recognize for doing all the stuff is not YJ himself, rather the 'man' he became. And after that everything start to collapse again & make YJ doubtful & once again don't give a sh*t about his life.
YJ only start to really think about everything in the last 2 of his chance. When everything became so interesting to watch.... And in the end he finally understand what Death mean by my death remained behind with those who loved me.
By reading other review I also realize this controversial topic to begin with. With no mean to minimize all people that have depression & think about ending their life. I think this drama deliver important messages for them too... "As i disappeared from this world, my death remained behind with those who loved me"

Gonna complain & spoiled big time.....
Watch this cause part of our sky. One of the bad apple with many2 plot holes... Let's discuss drama...Plot holes:
* It's weird for Nuengdiao as the biggest donor at school or you can say rich boy doesn't have any friend, even get bullied at school. Make no sense at all... Usually at least there's 1 'friend' or follower that try to get closer to get the benefit from being friend with rich guy. For this to be the fact we need background story, maybe someone ever take advantage of Nuengdiao so he trust no one or what.... Unfortunately no background story at all.... So yeah just makes no sense....
* Where the hell is security or bodyguard....?? Hello... Nuengdiao's dad just get murdered, not even made to look like an accident accident, it just MURDERED & the Perpetrator haven't been caught & yet so damn easy to get to Kiattrakulmethee's house to shot the wife & son. OH MY GOD!!! How stupid you are... Oh and after his mom get shot still no security to secure the house... The proof? Nuengdiao easily just enter his house. Yeah I know2 that's his house, but isn't his uncle supposed to be looking for him. Even he didn't monitor the house it just plainly stupid & weird all together....
* Why must hide the fact Palm work for Nuengdiao, to protect Nuengdiao. Make no sense. His dad just get MURDERED & he as the only heir to Kiattrakulmethee's family makes sense to have bodyguard lurking around.... So what if the bodyguard is the same age with Nuengdiao, it's not weird. It's maybe even better cause Palm can be near Nuengdiao as much as possible. Like in the class, cause it's weird to have bodyguard in the classroom, but if u're the same age as Nuengdiao u can join the school. Palm called to be bodyguard but can't be in the same car with Nuengdiao, what if something did happen, will Palm's dad only enough to protect Nuengdiao? Isn't gonna be better if Palm in 1 car with Nuengdiao. Overall it just so so weird... I run out word to describe it....
* Nuengdiao too easy adapt from rich lifestyle to run away & do all the job or housework. Never see someone that easy to switch lifestyle....
* The weird relationship between Kiattrakulmethee's family. The uncle-dad-mother-Nuengdiao-Chopper. It just they try to make family relationships but everything feels wrong... Like how Chopper try to friend with Nuengdiao, but never really friend too...
* Where the heck is the board member. Company that big have no shareholder or board member is so weird... After Nuengdiao's dad gor killed his mother just automatically become the CEO & after that his uncle & Nuengdiao himself in the end, usually there's drama with board member... Haha...
What i don't like apart from the plot holes:
- The forced relationship that Palm's dad try to make Palm does to Nuengdiao. He really see himself as lower class & kinda forced Palm to act like it.
- The cringey relationship between Palm & Nuengdiao. I don’t know how to describe it. Maybe just like Shiro wrote: "there are some sweet well preformed moments here and there but neither of the leads are very good with facial expressions and emotions. That said both are pretty good at delivering physical scenes as well as action and tension. However the moment they are supposed to feel something it just becomes cringey be it sadness, love (not lust though), anger... It just feels off...." Yeah i agreed. It just feels off....
- Mom always baby-ing Nuengdiao. She always said want Nuengdiao to be strong & grow... But u still baby-ing him, how can he be strong & grow... Ugh....
The only thing that I like from this maybe how in the end Nuengdiao grow up & learn to take his responsibility in family business....
Overall maybe just like jpny01 wrote: "It wants badly to be a PG-rated KinnPorche" but failed in general... Everything just feels off....

Let's continue the story... Hope it get better...It is get better. At least the story not so messed up like the original / long drama itself.
The story like MDL summary wrote: "Before entering university, Akk and Ayan take a trip with friends to shoot Wasuwat's short film." Wasuwat want to put his movie into competition, but one senior suggest that he add something more to the film. So Wasuwat gather his friends again to shoot additional film.
The event line up with the time Akk & Ayan have a little fight about their personality. Akk feel Ayan just too focus on himself, while Ayan feel Akk too much care about everyone else, even above Akk himself. And turn out Thua & Khan also have similar problem with Akk & Ayan. So yeah they make the problem into story board again for Wasuwat's film. But they divided the team into 2 group; Akk & Khan, Ayan & Thua, each make their story into script & Wasuwat will decided which they'll use....
While writing the script the duo (Akk & Khan, Ayan & Thua) each sharing their experience with their partner & having time off from their partner to cooling their head down & of course finally still decided the little bickering can't break them apart. They can't even stay away from each other long enough... Haha....
Overall I really happy to watch this special episode/series. Much better that the drama itself... But still think Khan & Thua not fit for each other. Maybe the actor themselves that not really having good relationship with each other...

Not only about romance
Watch this as part of our sky series. Long time heard about the good story, now that I've watched this, must admit this is a good story telling with good chemistry from the lead.Alongside My School President this is maybe the 2nd save BL drama that I've watched. Nothing intimacy, not even a kiss until the last ep. This gonna be perfect if only they not joke about in the last scene...
This drama talk more about life lesson than romance. But the eye contact and a slight physical contact between Phupha Viriyanon (PV) & Tian Sopasitsakun (TS) is talk more than any other steamy scene. I'm not familiar with both actor, but if anyone tell me they're real couple in real life I gonna believe them.
The life lesson we can learn from this drama:
* It's harder to forgiving than apologizing, especially when we need to forgive ourselves. Like TS guilt feeling for Torfun.
* Sometimes you have to experience thing to find our your goal / meaning of something. Like TS experience the life as a teacher.
* Acceptance can be found from everywhere. Like all the people in the village that welcom TS & all the teacher with open heart.
+ When life close the door for you, they always open the window. Haha... Like the problem villagers had with the mafia & their tea leaves...
But of course almost every drama has each stupid plot. And this is no exception.
The stupid plot:
- The way PV & TS's parent force TS to back home. I mean they can ask him nicely. Just tell him his mom misses him & want to see her son. I guess TS can go home for brief moment, like holiday & come back again, right...? Although a few times they explained it & give impression that TS's parent not gonna allowed him to be back. But being the loving parent they are, eventually they'll gonna give up & just allow TS to be back. See... Stupid plot
Except the stupid plot the minus things about this drama:
- One of the most obvious products placement adv. Haha... Sometimes it so silly & forced....
- Further inspection after many times re-watch, i just realized many times how they edit the scene is so obvious they shoot in different shot. Haha... Like in the first ep, epilogue scene, suddenly the room is bright with light. Haha...
- We lack the explanation from PV side after they separated. Suddenly PV just like having change of heart
Overall this one green flag drama & save drama for you who's looking for anything without steamy scene. The only steamy scene is the bath scene & open chest by PV. Hehe...

1st part
Quite boring with usual drama, so I looked for a little bit mystery. Quite happy to find this, quick & fast pace mystery. Let's discuss...This drama divided into 2 part with a little twist in the end that make me feel need to made review about, especially since no one discuss or made review about this drama. This first part talk about introduction, about the game, the character & at the end of this part, the connections between 1 and another.
The game in this drama quite interesting. They using virtual reality with simple VR glasses. Unfortunately we don't get to see how their body in the real world when they're in the game. Is it like the usual VR games where our body moving too or just stay put...?
The story start when Zhen Yu (ZY) want to find out the truth about his father incident years ago. One day he got a package that lead him to the game. In the game he meet several people that in the end become companion to go through the game & even friends in real life too.
In the game they become the detectives that need to solves the case. And every time they succeed the game they got clues about the incident years ago or where to check for the next clues. From that little by little they connect the dot.
This part end when with ZY finally know the relationship between him & Xiao Han. Oh I'm gonna talk about the twist in the 2nd part of this drama. So if you don't want to be spoiled don't read my review there...

A little frustrated with the ending
Interesting story about detective, mystery & martial art worlds that collide together. Not much mystery story that can be part ways from politic, but this drama although not completely part ways, you can still tell they're not really glue together like the usual way.Really like to see Cheng Yi act outside his usual character, where he usually play cold with limit or even no expression man, here we can see more expression from Cheng Yi together with his outgoing & aloof character. Together with childish character of Joseph Zeng, they make beautiful combination of partner and more addition of Xiao Shun Yao in the end make the group complete with quite interesting character to watch.
Really interesting to see how the story evolve in the drama. How they unraveled the secret a little by little so in the end all make sense. But sometimes I must say it's also kinda uninterested to see the case seems unrelated to each other, it's like they forcing the case to be there in the first place, just to make the story about cases & they work solving the case together.
Really admire the characteristic of Li Lian Hua, how he's in the end released forgiveness for who already did him wrong, kinda let go feeling before he face his death. But still how many of us can say people from martial world have that relieved feeling to forgive all of that wronged them, usually they only talk about taking revenge...
But in the end this drama leave unsatisfied feeling in my heart about the ending. Kinda hope we have more clear about the ending,... The special episode also not much of a help. Don't know why they bothered to make the special episode... :(

Long time not found very enjoyable historical drama. This drama make me laugh & cry with them.The story start from a girl named Liu Yu Ru (YR) that comes from business family, that even though she is the legitimate daughter, but her father prefer & more love her step sisters (from Concubine). So from the injustice in her home, she plans her future life where she can married to good family so she can support her mom, Ye family is her goal. But life turn upside down when she meet Gu Jiu Si (JS), a playful rich man, that never have consequence for his action including everything that come out from his mouth. As the result, YR find herself engaged to JS in the end. And their story begin.... ^^
At first of course YR try to avoid her destiny to married to JS, but in the end she accept her fate & finally she even manage to change JS. Her action of course supported by JS's parent that also want to see their son change into better man. Mean while there's a man in the shadow that ready to turn their world upside down, together with the changing politic in the capital city, that make Gu family loses their support. In this drama we see how support from family & friend, together with clever & smart decision from YR & JS make their journey full of story that we can watch together. Haha...
What I like:
+ What I really like about YR is what ever life give her, she take it, try her best & sometimes even punch life back in its face. Haha... Really like how in the end she really can stand & make the power for herself.
+ The chemistry between Bai Jing Ting & Song Yi quite good. Love to see they love each other, not to the point lovey dovey but enough for us to feel their love for each other.
+ Bai Jing Ting give us good performance for JS. We can sense that even though people see him as aloof rich man, but he is kind man & later on we can see how he grow up become smart & mature man.
+ All the friendship JS, Ye Shi An, Zhou Ye & Shen Ming is one solid friend, they willing to do their best to support their friend. We also have Fan Xuan & Zhou Gao Lang, (the emperor & his right hand man) even though in the end they kinda grow apart, but that also one lifetime friendship.
+ How love never make people stupid here. Like even though Luo Zi Shang (ZS) love YR, but he never stop or even pause his plan even for the sake of YR herself.
+ We can see the strong woman here. Like YR & Ye Yun (YY). How YY herself also turn herself around after what Wang Shan Quan did to her.
Now the minus:
- They never really give the deep background of our villain, ZS, Never at least until the last episode we finally understand why he did it & where the grudge come from. And that just one stupid misunderstanding in the end,
- The obsession of Fan Yu to become emperor never really explained. His swift in the character is the one that make my eyebrow raised the most. I know this not a story about him, so we don't get too much explanation about him. maybe if the episode longer we gonna get some explanation about this. But I mean how a boy that at one time really trust, adore JS & I can say a good kind hearted boy can change to become jealous, sentiment and all the obsession about the throne itself. Maybe the explanation lays in the last interaction between him & his father, where we can see how hurt he is that his father is more trust JS than him as his son.
Overall this really one good drama that I enjoy very much...

The story nothing new. Old couple separated because of misunderstanding, although this time not because silly misunderstanding. While they're separated, the woman (Min Hui (MH)) become pregnant & having child. They met 5 years later & the man (Xin Qi (XQ)) find out that he has a child. & their journey begin....
This is a story about how a man fight for the love & trust from his partner. The separation 5 years ago begin from misunderstanding & trust issue from XQ. And 5 years later this still become thorn in the flesh in their relationship. XQ has to fight to win not only trust from MH, but also his son (Min Quan Quan (QQ)). Fortunately the last problem (QQ trust & love) is easier gain than the first (MH trust issue) & later on QQ will be his companion to win MH heart...
This drama also talk about sexual harassments that woman receive in office environment. They solved it with braveness from the victims & support from all the employee / friends.
What lack from this drama for me maybe only 1. How severe XQ heart disease actually is...? We get several clue that it's really dangerous one, he collapse & all the doctor visit. But they never really tell us how severe it actually is... Yeah yeah I know, that not the important part of the story. But I just want to know. Haha...
Overall this really one good easy rom com to enjoy. No angst or irrational jealousy, just a very enjoyable watch....

Well what I can conclude from this drama is, you don't need 4 reason to hate Christmas, you only need 1, which is you don't have someone special to spend the time with. Haha...Every single person here is lonely and of course they don't have that special someone to spend Christmas with, so they become bitter with everyone seem enjoy their Christmas with their loved one.... Sometimes I glad live in my country where Christmas & American's holiday (such Halloween) not feel so much of celebration like in the drama.
I really wish this drama bring more than the lonely people who feel bitter & jealous with everyone have couple or loved one to spend the holiday season together. But I kinda glad to see not everyone of them in the end get match with someone....
But overall in the end this still one good short drama to spend your time with....

It was good until the last episode
Not many drama leaving me at the edge of frustration when they closed the curtain. This drama is one of among some of it. This drama have a decent story, plot & villain. But why they have to messed up the ending....?????? Why not add another episode to close the drama with very good story to tell.... Aaaaggggghhhhhh Really make me frustated. One quite good drama must have this bad ending....Before watch the last episode I still plan to give this drama at least 7 score, but the last episode make me drop it. I still rise it a little bit due my love for Xu Kai. Haha....
Ok enough about the rampage. I'll gonna write big spoiler or you can say more complain about the ending & everything else. If you haven't watch it or don't want to know the ending. Just skip my review then....
===================================================================================
The bad:
- The relationship between Ding Yun Qi (YQ) and Wu Shuang (WS). They don't build enough story about their childhood relationship. Just a little bit here and there to suggest they know each other since child & of course they're childhood sweetheart. But isn't YQ go away for almost decade or you can say very long time, so what make his relationship with WS so special until when he see her again he has deep feeling for her....?? All that trust, where is it comes from, how can you so trust someone that you already haven't see for many many years, what if she change...???
- The love rival. How childish Chu Feng Ling (FL) is. When she became jealous of how YQ relationship with WS I wanna scream... Xiao Jie how can you compare your relationship with YQ and YQ relationship with WS, you don't even start in the same line. So you even have no right to say that you heartbroken when YQ choose WS over you....
- The weird thirst of power that FL suddenly has after Luo Jiu Tian died. Yeah I know how she several times say by witness her brother died, she understand how important power is. But still the transformation is so weird & feel not in place. I don't know, maybe from Ruan Ju herself act that part not conciving enough for me.
- What happen with Yu Family, are they all died from the last battle. They only show us Madam soldiers survive & can go to the cave. Am I right to assume they all died....???
- They force the good luck. Haha... You can say this is my own prejudice, but Elaine Zhong who play WS a little bit too old to be 'little sister' of Xu Kai. & I can't feel the chemistry between Elaine Zhong & Xu Kai too. For me their chemistry almost none, not even as friend. It just feel like this is a job they have to finished.
- What the use for Soul Pursuit Order they have to collect in the first place.... This kinda joke. Until the very end that thing never proven its use. They only use Ding Yuan Shan Soul Pursuit Order to open the door, but the other we're not even see it anymore...
- Last but not least the CGI is a little bit too smooth. To the point I really can notice that definitely the result of CGI. Yeah I know this just my preference, but kinda hurt my eye too see something that obvious. Haha...
- All must happy ending. A little bit force for happy ending here.
How in the end YQ get out from that cave, much better if they give us scene like how YQ try to get out by solving the puzzle or whatever, but the last scene of him he just standing there regretting not be able to protect the Kun Lun Mountain. HOW THE HELL DID HE GET OUT?????!!!!!
Why must He Biao survive. Yeah I know I also glad he is not dead, but saving him a little bit too much.
What happen with the relationship between WS and her sibling. The last time she still tell us she still need time to process everything & suddenly everything good & she just accept her sibling. Aiyo...
No one stop San Jin. I mean when YQ send him to send the letter. The madam already know he go down, but like she just forget about that piece of information or consider it not important, so no one even try to pursuit him...
The marriage between WS & YQ. The sudden marriage also feel strange, it feel like the director want to make wedding scene & he decided to do it at that time.
Ok all the drama still have good side.
The good:
+ Never expected villain. They twist and turn it several angle, but kinda fun to see how the actual villain in the end.
+ The feeling between WS & Zhou Qiu Hai. The struggle WS has in the end really makes sense.
+ The martial art & all that puzzle really fun to watch. The martial art choreography also quite good.
+ The song quite good to listen too. Haha...
+This is also just my preference. But the hero not always arrived at the right time. Haha... Sometimes just bored to see how our hero always arrived at the right time when there were someone in danger. Because in reality not always like that. Here we can see several times how not everytime our hero comes to us. Like when WS almost got raped, YQ have no ide about it & the one save her is FL and not YQ.
Overall this just another drama to watch

the different special episode
Quite funny to see really different special episode from another special episode like this. Usually the other special episode either fill with the director cut or story after the drama. But here they have another universe where our main lead have reverse job.Quite cute actually see them from different perspectives and also different personalities. Where at the main drama we see Su Jin Bei kinda narcissistic and easy going, but here she kinda a little bit cold. And Zhou Shi Wen still with his cool self....
But I like how they still included the part of scene from the main drama to remind us what the scene referring to in the main drama.
What I don't like actually only one from this special episode. I don't like the style of Ding Yu Xi hair. Haha... kinda not match with him I think...

ugh where have I begin....This drama actually quite good. Sweet rom-com with no much problem or drama. But the problem with that, it's leaving us with a lot of plot holes and questionable plot....
Plot holes:
- Their story progress too fast.
OK I love when the ML & FL not playing or hiding their feeling toward the other for too long, but this is something more... Like after Su Jin Bei (JB) suddenly called Zhou Shi Wen (SW) Zhou bao Bei (baby zhao) after spend the night in his house, I feel the need to check the previous ep again to see how that exactly happen over night in case my eyes and ears just ridicule me... or like when JB angry to SW because of the incident with the director (Ethan) and suddenly she just forgive him & accept his proposal... aiyo....
- The questionable relationship between Zhou Su Ying & Xu Jia Wei. It's once more bring every fantasy of fan girl/boy come true.
OK every drama have minus and plus poin. Here the good part:
+ SW sometimes just too cute or naive. Like when JB angry to him again regarding the director (Ethan) incident, Xiao Yuan Song must remind him if you make mistake you must apologize...
+ Really admire JB. She knows where to stand & what is the most important thing in her life. Like when her relationship with SW exposed, she's not just quiet & agreed when she asked to hide her relationship, but instead she bravely said that SW is the one that she love.
+ How the relationship between JB and SY progress.
+ Although our main couple story progress a little bit questionable but I like how the story between Xiao Yuan Song & Wu Di. How we see an aloof man chasing the love & trust of his girl.
Overall if you can ignore the plot holes this drama has I think you'll gonna like this. I myself quite enjoy this drama, until the last problem occurred (the angry and suddenly the proposal) and then I decided to just reduce the score...

Finally finished....!!!
Yeah!!! Finally finished....!!! So many times I have to pause this drama and watch another in between, But in the end I have to admit this is one of beautiful production. And yes the story not for all of us. I tbink this is my first drama that I've watch with 1.5 speed for almost all the episode due to the slow duration this drama has.What I like:
+ the beautiful story yet frustrating relationship between Fang Hai Shi (HS) & Fang Jian Ming (JM). But since One & Only I subconsciously make the comparison between the 2 drama about Master & their student. LOL :p.
+ The chemistry between Yang Mi & William Chan. I can't say top notch or what, but yeah I still can see their chemistry
+ The beautiful friendship & trust between JM & the emperor. Yeah be an emperor is a heavy burden & really not easy to find someone u can truly trust with all ur heart
+ The story between the emperor & Tilan and also Zhuo Ying & Zhe Liu. Really one bitter first sweet then relationship.
+ The smart & cunning of JM & emperor when they have to face the enemy.
What I don't like:
The time frame is very long.... Yeah I know every time stamp is important & I also don't know how to cut it. But I don't know why I really think the time frame for this really long & a little bit unbearable...
Overall: This still one good drama to watch. But no, I'll not gonna re-watch this

Quite excited to see this drama because of Wang An Yu. But turn out this drama quite boring for me, or maybe just my taste in drama changing again into can't just satisfied with mediocre drama like this.Yes this drama quite sweet & tell the story of normal couple, with their problem, personal or relationship. Like Zhu Le Le (LL) and Qu Zhi (QZ), where at first LL can't quite honest with her own feeling. At first I quite like their duration & how Shen Zheng Yi (ZY) & Shao Bei Sheng (BS) develop their own feeling for each other. But later I feel this drama quite boring, with the unnecessarily stretch. Yes I understand this is also sport drama, where I quite happy to see how ZY develop her own progress in speed skating.
Maybe just like I said in the beginning. My taste quite changing after watching so many drama.... Haha... If we want to compare eye to eye, this and skate into love, in my opinion skate is far more interesting to watch, from the struggling in speed skating to the love and relationship between Li Yu Bing & Tang Xue.
There is one big plot hole that they forget completely. They forget about the bet that Shen Zheng Yi and Shao Bei Sheng made in the first place, to fulfill 1 wishes. If the writter don't forget they don't need to make the relationship contract between ZY & BS.
Oh and at this age I also notice 1 big thing that I don't like from c-drama lately. The statement that when they are in a relationship, when the women angry the man better coax her until she's not angry again. OK if that the man fault, of course he must apologize and coax her until she's not angry again, but if the case the woman fault, like when LL & QZ break up, the first respond that BS give to QZ is can't he just tolerate & coax her. Hey you don't know yet whose fault is that, why must the man tolerate & coax the woman.... It's not fair & really give a bad influence for Young woman that watch the drama.
But with every sport drama like this, I quite adore the actress that can act or exercises like the real sportman/woman, because if that me I absolutely can't do all the hardship of exercises like Song Zu Er do with this drama. So extra star for all the actor/ess who done it...
In this drama what I like best, except the struggle of every actor/ess with the exercise, is Wang An Yu. Really funny how he sometimes became that spoiled with ZY. I also like the intimate, pampered interaction between ZY & BS is very youthful. Last but not least the friendship of Zhu Feng girl, how at the end even Luo Xiao Yi learn about cooperation in the group, how to trust your partner in ice.
Overall this just one ordinary youth drama to spend your days with. Nothing too special. Just the song quite good.

But for the story itself quite boring actually. The cases is quite complicated, but somehow toward the ending the more bored I became. The romance between Bai You Ning & Lu Yao help me hang on to the drama. But I really like the twist in the plot in the end.
Really like the interaction between Bai You Ning & Lu Yao. Their feelings build slowly through admiration & friendship. Admire the loyalty of Qiao Chu Sheng to Bai Qi Li,. Like the friendship of our trio.
Overall this is one good detective drama that quite have everything actually, not only about the cases. They have a little bit politic, romance, friendship & of course good plot that still can surprise us in the end.
