Honestly, this was a 10/10 for me. I know the manga, the anime, this was different, but very, very enjoyable. Great characters, great action and suspense. I never skipped forward, and the most important thing: THE GUY FROM D.P IS IN IT! Do you need to know more? Go watch it! (I'm not talking about the very attractive, but rather stoic cutie, I'm talking about the crazy guy)
wtaf was that ending why why why why JUST GIVE US CLOSURE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD I DNT NEED HER WLAKING ON A ROOFTOP…
I expected her to dance, honestly. She did ballet, and now as neo-human her feet must be healed. Would have been great. It would also show that she has emotions.
I absolutely adored this season! Definitely preferred it over season 2 and while im so happy that it was a happy…
Yeah, when they brought him in, it looked like he had some major plan, because he was very smart when he was human, and now he became this mysterious neo-human being. But he did nothing. He was completely useless.
I wish some people (especially yk those two fandoms) would get off from their high horse about their faves being…
Nah, it's not true that this is only about the script. Look at Only Friends, where Force and Book were the main characters (there would be no story without them, everything revolved around Mew and Top), but First and Khao stole the spotlight easily. Now everyone thinks they were the main characters, which wasn't true at the beginning. They changed that later. I saw someone saying they aren't strong enough to carry a series alone, when they weren't even meant to be the main characters to begin with. Too funny. And yes, they would have been sensational in Star in My Mind. I'm 1000% sure of it, because there was not a single role First didn't do well. He is sensational, even if he only plays a minor side character like an ex-boyfriend in Moonlight Chicken who appears later in the series.
Seriously? SERIOUSLY? First is the biggest talent here. Maybe the biggest talent GMMTV has to offer. Khatotung is good too, but his acting gets easily too cheesy. Joong is doing a decent enough job to get rightfully paid for the effort. Dunk is bad. But he has a pretty face. Period. Who cares? Maybe they can step up their acting game. I'm rooting for everyone.
S3 wrapped the whole thing up. They did a good job with bringing back beloved characters. The acting was great, some action scenes were great, some deaths had the same emotional impact like the deaths in s1, which were very devastating. The character development was also decent. So overall, while I felt s2 was completely different, and I couldn't connect to the story and characters anymore, I felt like s3 brought the much-needed clarity. Everything went full circle, and I admit, that I didn't see the bigger picture after s2, but now I get it. Most of it, at least. Because so many things weren't explained, made no sense, or were just underwhelming. How the final boss was killed, was honestly laughable. There were so many potlines, and so much confusion with the “species”. We have humans, monsters, special infected, neo-humans, then the girl, who was born by a human and a monster. You tend to forget that the whole "monsterization" was about emotions/psychology. So the neo-humans have no emotions. I guess that's called "evolution", but since they learn them anew, so is that some kind of reset? The most interesting thing about the whole plot is the psychology behind it, but most people only seem to see this as some kind of apocalyptic/zombie/survival series. They did focus a bit too much on the action, the blood, and the gore, especially since they didn't have the budget to do so. They neglected the (psychological) plot, so at the end, we didn't get a satisfying closure. But at least every character's story was somehow told to the end.
The trailer doesn't look good. The 1st season was such a masterpiece. The 2nd season had completely different storytelling. They also abandoned the beloved characters, made some die a rather pointless death, others had a strange storyline, not to mention the main character didn't get much attention, then some strange time skips happened. It was entertaining, yes, but the story went in a rather strange direction. Now they bring some beloved characters back, and most likely they only do it to make the viewers happy. I feel like they have no real plan about the story, and just drag this out with the intention of making it cool. I still have no idea why we saw the naked ass of the main character in the 2nd season. Not that I care about nudity, but this seems like a money grab. Still, I can't wait to watch it. But yeah, they better step up their game!
This drama feels like everyone involved was just there for the paycheck. It's not bad, but it lacks passion and well-developed characters. I feel nothing for those people. This series is rather plot driven than character driven. Unfortunately, the crime that our heroes are supposed to solve, isn't that interesting. At episode 8 I finally give up. Not even Ji Sung can put some life into this drama.
What's the point? I remember when this aired, it was pretty popular. So now I finally watched it. I was also raised in a poor family. While I assume that being poor is different in any culture, I just couldn't stop thinking: Do they even know what it means being poor? They had no toothpaste? Brushed their teeth with salt? I remember how Jimmy O. Yang, a Chinese-American comedian once joked about hand soap. It seems the rich people have better soap, lol. We had no fridge. In summer, my mother put the groceries in a pot and let cold water run around it. In winter, she dug up a hole in the snow and put the stuff there. We had to sleep with three layers of cloths to not get cold. But you wouldn't believe it: We could afford toothpaste and hand soap, because it isn't that expensive. It irritates me that they are portrayed sooo poor - compared to whom? The super rich? Apparently, if you don't wear high heels worth 3k you're a beggar. Both older sisters have good jobs. The writers explain their poverty by telling us they have to pay debt. This is such a common trope in Korean drama: the never ending debt and the debt collectors. Again, maybe it's different in any culture, maybe I'm ignorant, but come on! Well, that said, what's the point of this drama? Apparently it's a thriller, which I must admit, I didn't know when I started watching this. I love thriller, so that's not the issue. But why should I keep watching? I don't really care who killed the friend of one of our female leads. Maybe I got into this with the wrong expectations, but I thought this is a series about three strong and clever women who fight against the rich. Nope. The youngest is only in high school. The other one is a drunk, and the third one is very timid. If someone wants to give me a quick spoiler, I would appreciate it. Is one of those girls becoming smart? Is there something intelligent going on in this series? I don't mean it's dumb, it's not. But those three sisters are rather weak.
I see people are shaming others by saying they only like and watch this series because of the NC scenes. And here I am, after I have seen a YouTube video of those two actors. I clicked on the series, skipped everything, until I found the NC scenes, watched them, and have no clue what this series is even about. The sea plays a role, I figured that out. (Yeah, I know, it's in the title). LMAO.
I'm on episode 3 and the show is pretty decent, but I turn my brain off any time someone is supposedly on drugs…
? I thought this is supposed to be a new fantasy drug. From the very first moment, it was clear to me this is not a drug we know. The reactions, the symptoms, the withdrawal, how it works ... So now I'm confused. Is this not part of the plot which makes it exciting? Some mystery drug the writers invented? I never assumed this is a "normal" drug, or everything what happens around the drug is in any way supposed to be realistic, since the drug itself is a creative invention from the writers.
It's a MAME story? Sigh ... And I wanted to give this a chance.
Her stories are the definition of "trash". In TharnType how they handled the abuse ...! In LITA those strange top/bottom clichés with being dominant and submissive. There is no real emotional depth, no well written characters. She doesn't handle well dark topics, but she puts them into their stories, because for some people out there it's cool, edgy, and exciting. They enjoy "trash", because, and I will say it out loud, many people lack emotional depth and don't get how shallow and stupid this stuff is.
THE GUY FROM D.P IS IN IT!
Do you need to know more? Go watch it!

I get tired of Thai BLs sometimes, but I have to give them credit for trying out so many different things.
