I'm a bit late to the series but...I'm just 5 minutes into ep 1 and already annoyed by the plot xD. "Don't believe in love", "unnecessary emotion", blablabla. If I was an employee or his supervisor, I'd decline his proposal because of poor research. In a biological sense love does play an important role. And it's not like you can believe in it as you believe in God. It exists. Period! To me it's already obvious that he or some of his friends or relatives got hurt "because" of love thus deciding not to get emotionally involved with somebody. Then why doing this stuff with the dating app? Wouldn't a friend suffice? Eating out with them, watching movies, going to parties/clubs. You don't need a dating app for that and getting the hopes of a stranger up. How very inconsiderate behaviour is that as an adult?! Back to the presentation part: there CAN be people, who aren't capable of FEELING love. I'm not sure if it's some kind of hormonal malfunction or neuronal changes/dysfunction. They still feel happiness and they are still in need of friends and a social group. They still feel bad and lost if they have no social interaction at all. They might have known at some point what love feels like and get scared when they realise that they suddenly don't feel it anymore. Long rant short: this is so far from reality that I'm not sure if I wanna dive further into the series 😔
I really hope that despite this show being so bad that the final group will prove me wrong and will have success. A lot of things feel really frustrating. Was it mentioned if this group will be disbanded after a certain time? As Kep1er? Then they might get another chance but I just hope they can make it despite this bad show.

Buuut...do I see it right that Shiryu is out? Edit: Ah...I saw...."personal circumstances". I don't know if it's good to say "better this way" >. I feel like others should leave as well QQ
Strangely I have not cried at any scene in the drama so far. But I sure do have really felt very bad at some scenes.
I think the only time I cried was when he spoke his first words again and it was about getting tired when eating too much and then not being able to study. That broke me. But there is a saying that the viewer doesn't need to cry if the characters do. So you're fine!
After Peak Time and Boys Planet, I was anticipating this show to be as great, but sadly, I'm very disappointed.…
I'm on the same page with you when it comes to K-Soul. This sounds very mean because you can only change your "voice" to a certain degree. But I think there's something that became a certain habit for him which mirrors in his voice. While he's singing it's okay but while he rapped...it was even more irritating than when he talks. My description for that it that he's overstressing syllables in an unnatural way or pressing air through his vocal cords at the end of a word. I also feel that it's unnaturally high in pitch. Yes, it has something to with characteristics/personality but it's nothing that can't be fixed. With paying proper attention to it, it would work out. For now it feels like there is some kind of an arrogance in his voice and that's what it makes the voice sound unnatural to me.
I can't get out of my head how Soyeon said Myung Jae "became a little too healthy"...seriously?? I've been hoping…
I really wish for Myung Jae to debut in a different group. People here don't state for nothing that this is kind of a shit-show. Boys Planet had extremely long episodes but those made me understand the participants. Even though I couldn't watch it live and the episodes were cut, I still enjoyed it. This one though? It feels like the group will have to work its way up from the dumpster :/. I don't want that for any trainee who tried to become an idol for such a long time.
I don't know if this series would have been better with longer episodes but then again...it's an adaptation and manhwas kind of spread an image that is (hopefully) not showing the true side of how depression and anxiety is dealt with in SK. Let's just decide of how much a weirdo he is instead of considering that he might have some health issues. Let's force him to do something he clearly doesn't want to do. Let's touch a stranger because of ignoring signs of stress while being touched. Doing it again will most definitely change it. TES did such a good job (there were just very few errors I was able to overlook) thus it saddens me how we still need to see that "a relationship is all the cure that you need". At least this series seems to go into that direction. Dropping it like a hot potato! And seeing comments like "full of visuals" or laughing certain things off makes me think that society in general should strengthen education about what anxiety actually means and for the first part.... Makes me feel kinda sick that people are this superficial. I don't judge you. I like certain traits a lot as well but this shouldn't be the first thing coming to your mind when you want to write a comment. Am I too harsh? Probably yes. Because you're here for the fun. I let you have your fun. This is just a comment by somebody you don't know.
I don't know what happened here but it feels like an immense and unnecessary drag. I'm 30 minutes into ep 3 and feel like I don't wanna go on. The first two episodes were okay but this one ep makes me want to give it maybe 3 or 4 stars. The plot feels stiff as an old bread and the way the characters talk seems extremely unnatural. I got that for some characters but now it's almost all of them. "Side couple" is equally weird and I'm not necessarily talking about the acting skills. If I were to go to a party with someone else instead with my partner, why would I say something like "feels like we're going on a date"? Feels like a waste to me so instead of tearing this story apart and getting annoyed by it, I'll just leave it here.
Well...seeing Santa already being at fan meetings with Earth again, is he out as well? I don't really think he could go there if he was still participating, no? This makes the voting system kind of "useless"? I'm not sure what to think of this.
in the midst of everyone hating, I'll be the one good comment. I really love this and it was super cute and everyone…
I liked it as well! Finally somebody with common-sense saying "if I were jealous that would mean I don't trust you". Very good thinking and so necessary to say! I think these two episodes are showing us that they have their happy ever after. It's nice to have something soft and non-dramatic as well :).
This is my very first 10/10 and I am SO happy that a Korean series made me feel this way. Portraying people who in the end grew up that much that they decided to talk to each other. Even though they had different views and opinions. They accepted "defeat", they accepted rejection and they accepted to challenge their fears. To me The Eighth Sense is an absolute masterpiece and I'm glad that it ended on such a note. It doesn't tell you life is easy but that even with our fears in mind, we should not get stuck but try to challenge them.
An open-ending could have worked with any other drama but NOT this one. Why? Because he spent the ENTIRE drama…
Especially after Din said that he'd never let go of Ken's hand again. That he'd never let go of his loved one again. Well...even IF he went into hiding and they secretly got back in touch, why didn't the writers show us? I didn't get the very last scene at the airport either. What was that supposed to mean? As I said, this was quite a letdown :(.
Well...the kindest way to write it would be that this was quite unsatisfying and confusing. Even with better subtitles. I have to be fair and go down to 5/10. Compared to many other (still running) series, this sadly was quite a letdown for me.
I have to write it down before I can even finish ep 7. I HATE this behaviour! I despise it on such an extreme level! You are my senior? So what? You don't even behave like one because you're looking down on the juniors! This hierarchy system is just so sick and even costs lives...I feel like puking when I see it in this extreme. Ae-Ri was right in asking if they (the seniors) are even human. Kissing your ex even though his behaviour makes it obvious that he doesn't want to be with you....UGH! Such an unpleasant personality. But I seriously need to applaud all the actors. This is a roller coaster for me and I'm SO close to give this show a 10. Because it's realistic, not overly dramatic, almost portraying somebody's real life. Just because I despise some characters doesn't mean that I dislike this show. I'm seriously loving it!
Long rant short: this is so far from reality that I'm not sure if I wanna dive further into the series 😔
