i would consider this one pretty formulaic for a horror story, but nothing wrong with that. it was generally executed fairly well. it has some pretty good gross scenes (though the cgi is ... not great)! my biggest issue is the pacing at the end. they just kinda dump the conclusion on you.
i really wanted to like this one, cause i love transmigration and i wanted to get back into a funny kdrama, but i really lost all interest by ep 8. the moment i started watching at 2x speed i should have known it was over :(
i did end up watching it and tbh i kinda enjoyed it in a 'i don't have to think and just enjoy the ride' kinda way. there were also some really cute scenes. but yeah, you can definitely see the company was just "we got hot guys and gals and we don't do well with plot soooo sex will have to do" lol
at least the sex scenes were decent? i didn't cringe and laugh nearly as much as like with bed friends for example.
it's not bad, but not great either. it's a female rage/revenge story but the motivations behind it all aren't the most believable. the mc really chose the wrong victims for the viewers to really care about the trajectory of this plot. tbh, just changing that would have made this so much better.
the kills are creative and exactly what you would want from a horror like this, though. if you don't care about plot, this could still be a good watch.
it's a chinese webdrama. my bar for these are on the floor. how did it still disappoint??? gaozheng, please be a bit more picky with your drama choices. just how big are your debts that you take shows like these. is your company holding you hostage and forcing this on you? are you okay?? please take a vacation instead next time you get a script this bad presented to you.
this really isn't as bad as a lot of these comments are making it out to be, it's just for a certain audience. tbh, if i have to compare this to sunset x vibes or big dragon (the second half, cause it started off pretty good), then this was way easier and more enjoyable to watch.
i also really expected this to have more cooking in it seeing as pooh became known for being on masterchef, but i'm not complaining. (i hate cooking in shows.)
maybe it's that my expectations were in the gutter so this was a happy, fluffy, brain-is-on-standby, kinda show.
I love the original story which is why i pushed this off for so long, i expected to be disappointed. and here I am: disappointed. I don't mind changes being made, but they changed major parts, taking away so much of the original charm. it somehow became an empty shell. the counselor/tutor arc?? it's so important I feel and they just brushed past it like that wasn't needed character and relationship development. it's crazy how they handled that. after that, I gave up on thinking I could truly enjoy this series.
maybe I would have liked this more if I hadn't just re-read the manga lol
i swear a sign of a bad show is when they spend half their time eating when the plot has nothing to do with food. how low on content do you have to be???
idk why i thought this series would be more serious than their previous ones, but i guess they found their niche and are sticking with it. i'm so here for it!! love the satire and can't wait to see how this goes.
ming was unhinged in ep 4. man, how do you come back from that one. idk how i'll feel about a redemption arc. either they embrace the unhinged and go full toxic, or joe finds someone new.
i really like this show, though i can't get over the twins not telling first. like even at the end, zee knows sprite likes first, yet he behaves like that? why? just to be a dick? dude, there is no bonus to you hiding. just tell first you have a twin he should be talking to instead.
I found this while on my quest to watch all of the truly awful Thai BLs I can find. And this one never disappointed!!!…
glad you got through it! haha maybe they were hoping for pepper to make this couple and thus this series to blow up. (with the help of the small cameos.)
also, rak is just a white piece of toast. the actual worst. i am convinced he paid his way into the main character. no way any casting agent would look at his acting and think "yes. that, yes." especially when you have other actors in there who outdo him at every turn AND who also have the right look.
anyways, glad i got to convince you to give this a try hahaha
dan is the biggest fucking simp, though.
that's it. those are my feelings.
