ok just finished watching ep 3. the father-son scene at the end got me in the feels

All the emotional scenes in ep 11 had me bawling. Then the romance parts bursts through to kill all my bromance feels. Like seriously, I'm enjoying the drama for the group's coming-of-age story, but I cannot stand the romance this show is trying to sell us.

Yeah I was surprised when I found out about this, but then I read dramabeans article about it and realized why it happened. http://www.dramabeans.com/2016/05/sbss-entertainer-gets-2-episode-extension/
Alas, I can only hope the extension will not drag with the extra episodes.

Dudeeee maybe bc I lack sleep, but I was totally not expecting that cliffhanger. Gimme more!

I'm usually a fan of romance, but I'm just not feeling the Ji Sung x Hyeri couple. I think the bromance tops it all and hope it stays as the centerpiece of the story.

I haven't been in Kdramaland in a while and wasn't ready to dive into a heavy setting drama. So, I was looking forward to watching the lightheartedness that Entertainer brought via its youthful cast. Ji Sung is always a plus. Thus, even though I heard about some people not liking the show, I decided to give it a try since it intrigued me enough. I'm glad I went with my gut feeling. I have been enjoying the drama since ep 1 and now find it a guilty pleasure of mine.

The way the story is going though, it seems Shi Woo and Sun Ah are brother and sister...and bit unsure yet, but looks like Sun Ah and Chi Ang are going to be paired off together?

While I mentioned before that this drama is a(n) (embarrassingly?) guilty pleasure of mine due to it's cheesy components (some acting, CGI, action scenes, etc), I appreciate its mystical plot, budding bromance, and am still enjoying watching the show. Thus, it saddens me when I read the recent Moorim School allkpop article. It states that the production and broadcasting companies are in disagreement with the show's production fees and # of episodes to air. I knew the Korean ratings for this show weren't great, but dang the feels....

Then I guess Sun Ah always calling Shin Woo "oppa" is truly legitimate beyond her fangirling? hahaha

Aish why are they trying to build up a love triangle when friendship is kicking in between SW and HB. #bromance2k16

Ok not gonna lie. That beginning of ep 3 got me rofl. It was a good fakeout. And here I thought the boys were gonna go all "martial arts experts" on us.

@TurkishRose It depends how the scene will be played out. The show has done a phenomenal job as an adaptation, but of course has had to add/leave out some characteristics for the flow of the story. One such part has been Eun Taek's gluttonous ways. It made for great comic relief in the beginning of the webtoon.

Also, I see you commenting in most of the shows that I'm also a fan of. I always look forward to your comments and opinions!

In the webtoon, Nam Joo Hyuk's character Eun Taek is better displayed with its storytelling. I dare say readers often refer to him in good nature as the only "normal" character. There's a scene where he adds more value to the drama and it has not yet been displayed. It looks like the scene will still occur since the antagonistic character's actor is listed as part of the cast. I actually like Joo Hyuk better in CITT than School 2015 lol

I tried listening to the main girl's voice while my eyes were closed. She sounded like an ajumma.

omg yaass! when he swayed his hand while touching his hair, I was instantly reminded of GD

I'm only caught up to 2nd season of eng translated webtoon, but based on it, I think the actress is doing a good job of portraying In Ha. The character really is that crazy and childlessly annoying! lol

Oh the Second Lead Syndrome is strong in this one...

I think this drama will be one of my guilty pleasures. I like the drama (more so the concept and the "magical world" component), but I can't take it seriously. I find myself laughing out loud during some of the acting and action scenes. It's sorta cheesy; kind of like if I were watching a Power Rangers/Harry Potter blend.

I've read the webtoon as well. I'm not sure for the viewers that haven't if all the nuances and actions had as much of an impact or understanding? I know if I hadn't read the webtoon, I wouldn't be enjoying the drama as much as I am now

I still think the best part of ep 14 is the dramatic breakup and reconciliation of han sol and jun woo that occurred in a timespan of ~4 min.
