a friend picked this show for me, and I am glad he did 🤣

oh damn, some of my reviews are questionable in quality lol

Ji Jin Hee truly aced the role here. He is extremely talented actor. Even tho I don't like all of his dramas, I for sure enjoy all of his performances.

Thank you :) Honestly, was not sure if I can even describe how I felt about it after finish watching 🤣

response to the previous reply:
I said what I said. You named the lack love triangle as a reason people dislike Peach, when if you scroll down the comments, no one named it as a reason. You have a lot of comment naming all the reasons why they did not quite like Peach, and yet in your comment you name the one no one mentioned ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

conclusion - your initial comment has little to do with the reality.

As for the overrated. As I said, 2gether is overrated coz it was the first BL for many people. When you just get into BLs, everything seems like a fresh, new, amazing toy. Same goes for dramas overall. This is why many k-drama basic rom-coms have high ratings - they were first dramas for many people, they had nothing to compare them with, hence they thought it's the best thing on the plant. Most people who saw more BLs judged 2gether for what it was - cute rom-com with pretty faces, nothing impressive.

All older shows have lower ratings coz less people saw them. Same goes for iconic older kdramas etc. You need to take into consideration the time it aired.

While Bright gain A LOT of popularity with 2gether and became a start, he was also no a new face in Thailand overall. It did help 2gether gains some attraction at first.

Popularity means nothing, if people dislike the show. Your argument is - people dislike Peach coz it had no love triangle, and you named My Engineer as an example in another reply. But people did not really like My Engineer either. So giving it as an example made no sense.

The point is, when you go down the comment section, you have a lot of people clearly stating what exactly they disliked about Peach of Time. And yet, you named not one of these reasons in your comment, concluding people dislike it coz it had no love triangle ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

So how about listening to reasons people give, instead of ignoring them and coming up with your own theories on why some might have disliked it.

2gether had no real love triangle in season 1, My Engineer had no love triangle, just side couples. So no, love triangles have nothing to do with it. 2gether was popular coz it was one of the first BLs for many people. + Bright already had a fanbase. The production quality was also higher compared to BLs before it. The story was extremely simple so it could reach wider audience. My Engineer ain't even that popular and has rather low rating for BLs on mdl - top reviews are 5 and 7. So naming it as an example of successful BL is a bit much.

I did not see one comment saying they would want to see love triangle in THIS show. Most people who have complaints about it, do not mention the ending too. So your views on why people dislike it are unsubstantiated.

People mention how Jimmy's acting was not on pair with co-stars, how the ghost aspect was a mess and how we as viewers had to literally force ourselves to ignore logic with how Yoon Oh was levitating things around people, or how Peach was flirting with air in a busy area, and no one reacted to it. People complained how, even tho one of the best parts of the show, the relationship between Yoon Oh and his mother could be better build and explained. How there were many side stories for side characters that were unnecessary, and wasted time that could be used for the main couple (the rival coffee place and the boss, mom's scene at work). How Mario's story had no real ending.

The point is, there are valid reasons for people to not love this show, so saying they dislike it coz it got no love triangle is a bit ridiculous.

Nah, some people just like when writers and directors pay attention to details and their world building more, and instead of adding side story for each character in the short show, truly explore the main story ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

No need to generalize everyone who was not in love with the show just based on your unsubstantiated view on them.

you need to realize that this are people's hard work < this is their JOB that they are getting paid for. I am a CUSTOMER. I am realistic and objective. People like and dislike different things, They pay attention to different things, they have different pet peeves.

You should stop assuming people should view things your way - it's not the only correct one. There is not such a thing as objectivity in terms of judging dramas. I am not objective, you are not objective. Expecting objectivity is being unrealistic. We judge shows based on our own standards, likes, preferences.

I have honestly no idea what's your problem. It's not like I rated the show low or completely ignored the good aspects. It's literally positive review with one complaint about ending, which is one of my pet peeves in terms of planning and directing a show.

No idea how you came across my review, but I would advice moving on. And maybe next time just skip any review that does not rate a show you like as 10, since it bothers you so much.

At the end of the day, it's not on me to protect others from reading my reviews.

It's important to point out both positive and negative aspects about shows, so people try understand what they are getting into. Having only positive reviews is pointless, since they would offer only one perspective.

I honestly don't understand. People have different perspectives and opinions, all are valid and important to express. If there are people who dislike endings like this one, they would rather know about it before watching 46 episodes of the show.

There is no drama that everyone will enjoy, since everyone has different taste. Nothing wrong with pointing out things one personally dislikes. I am not forcing anyone to read my review. And honestly speaking, if someone is so easily influenced by reviews, that reading one might ruined the whole watching experience for them, maybe they should stop reading reviews in the first place.

You need to chill, it's just a drama.

Honestly, when you watch it when it's airing it's "fun" coz you can laugh about it with others. But watching it later alone... will lose the appeal lol

I watched and I kept asking "but how? Why is no one reacting? What is going on?" 🤣

subplots surrounding the guards < this was one of the biggest disappointment. This subplot hit the dead end, when it was one of the more interesting subject to discuss. I was extremely curious how they recruit them, what they get from being guards. If they pick people who are willing to do anything for money, how the decide who gets the invitation to the game, and who to be the guard. There are so many things that could have been explored here. I would much rather them focus on this plot line, and not address the "big bad wolf" and the reason for the games in the first place.

I actually enjoyed the back stories a lot. Without it I would most likely get bored since I would be just waiting for everyone to die. That was one of the reasons I usually don't quite enjoy death game dramas - just the games are not enough content for a show, but rather a movie. But that's the personal preference type of deal. I see quite a lot of people have the same compliant as you do :)

Honestly, the set design and the usage of the children's game was such a brilliant idea, because it made the gruesome reality of the game that much more drastic.

While I get the message they wanted to give with the twist at the end, I could not stop thinking: "yeah I truly don't want to hear how sad rich people are coz they have no joy in their lives coz of the money they have". The way it was constructed to present it just did not sit well with me and I did not buy it.

that extra ending scene?! the writer/director is CRUEL < it was actually a reference to a real accident that happened: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_South_Korea_shooting_spree

it was a heavy show. apparently the webtoon is even more heavy, tho I can't confirm that since I did not read it.

So now even pointing out you are bringing unrelated topics as a reply to my comment is being rude.

Funny how I am a rude one for simply pointing out you are bringing unrelated topics into a discussion, but you calling me not mature enough, which is basically an attack on my character, is not being rude.

It's not me saying anything negative about you. It's you who is judging me.

Anyway, have a good life.

Your first paragraph has nothing to do with my comment ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Not once did I say they don't have the right to reply. I just pointed out how they claim to care about the proper way of stating opinions enough to point it out in XingBack's comment, but not in any other comment made in that comment section. So do they really care about the way XingBack said what she said, or is it about what she said. I'm fine with them disagreeing with XingBack, but lets not pretend it's the lack of "in my opinion" that made them make the reply.

I never said XingBack was either right nor wrong, did not bring into discussion her post on feeds. It had nothing to do with my reply to Meg at all.

As you could clearly see, I did not reply yo anyone else but that one user. The focus was on the fact they suggested XingBack should have added "in my opinion" as a way of differentiating opinions from facts. It's hypocritical to only point that issue out in a negative comment, while not correcting all the people who write their positive opinions "like facts".

the "why did you bother with this comment?" was suppose to ask why out of all comments stating opinions like facts, they decided to ONLY reply to this one. As in, why bother with this one, and not any other comment.
