Only Toxic

This K-drama is pure toxicity and nothing else.

Let’s talk about the story:

A guy who flirts with every girl he meets,
and a girl who falls in love with him.
A super toxic “couple.”

That’s literally the entire summary of the show.There’s no real storyline.
You just watch two young people spend their time having sex, fighting, breaking up, and then getting back together again. It’s the same cycle over and over.It’s a shame because the story isn’t developed any deeper than that. I wish they had given it more substance.

The acting is decent, but honestly, the series doesn’t have much else to offer.

After watching La Casa de Papel, I was really excited to check out the Korean version. Here's my honest opinion:

The Story:
Nothing too complicated it's about people who are struggling financially and get offered a big heist.

What I Didn't Like:
It's a shame there aren't more preparation scenes for the robbery like in the original Casa de Papel. We jump straight into the heist itself, and we barely see the characters planning and preparing for the "heist of the century." I would’ve loved more of that clever, strategic buildup.

What I Liked:
The characters are solid. Everyone acts really well even the supporting roles and the Professor. No one delivers a bad performance. The plot stays engaging. Even if you know the Spanish version, you still can’t predict exactly how things will unfold here. There are no boring filler scenes just to stretch out an episode. Everything feels well-paced. I still remember how hyped I was when Netflix dropped only Part 1.

Overall, it’s a really strong Part 1!!!!

why ?????

Honestly, Season 1 of Love Alarm was good. The whole app concept was good, the tension between Jojo, Sun-oh, and Hye-yeong was on point, and the vibe was both cute and a little unsettling. for Season 2 after that insane cliffhanger… and man, what a disappointment.

TWO YEARS FOR THIS, and they gave us just six short episodes that start with a really weird time jump. They completely ignore the final scene from Season 1 like it never happened. From the very first episodes, I could feel the pace was way too slow. Not much actually happens we just go in circles with Jojo’s doubts, her family traumas, and her quest to remove her shield. It’s more mature, sure, but it quickly becomes heavy and repetitive.
My biggest issue is Jojo. She’s so indecisive, passive, and sometimes selfish that I ended up finding her really annoying. Her choices don’t always make sense, and it feels like she’s hurting everyone without really owning up to it. Sun-oh (Song Kang) is still likable even though he gets a bit toxic at times, but the real gut punch is the ending: Jojo’s final choice. Without spoiling too much, let’s just say most Sun-oh fans (including me) were pretty disgusted. The chemistry with Hye-yeong isn’t bad, but it never comes close to what she had with Sun-oh in Season 1. Hye-yeong is way too “perfect,” almost bland.

On top of that, the message about the app is inconsistent between the two seasons: is Love Alarm good or bad? They flip-flop on it and you can totally tell. There are plot holes, underused side characters (Gul-mi seriously got on my nerves), and overall, the magic from Season 1 is completely gone. We went from a fresh, addictive drama to something melodramatic and depressing without the same emotion.In the end, I don’t totally regret watching it because I needed some closure, but I’d clearly recommend stopping at Season 1 if you don’t want to ruin the good memories. Season 2 is slow, frustrating, and the finale leaves a bitter taste for a lot of people.

annoying asf for me !

a basic romance...

My review of Season 1 of Love Alarm:

A basic K-drama romance with a simple concept: an app that notifies you if someone within a certain radius likes you. You might think this would make the story interesting, but personally, I didn’t feel like it added anything special after the first half of the season.At the beginning, it’s useful for introducing the series, the theme, and showing who the characters are attracted to. But after that, I personally found it lost its interest.The acting from the main characters is okay. With a theme like this, you shouldn’t expect anything extraordinary from the romance.

The OSTs didn’t particularly stand out to me, but they weren’t bad either.

You can watch this K-drama if you have nothing else to watch!

Psychopath Land.exe

Do you think you’ve already watched a drama with one or two completely crazy characters? This drama is even worse it’s full of mentally ill people.

You follow the story of a woman who manipulates men to get what she wants. There’s a man who’s in love with her, but she does everything to not give him what he wants so she can keep controlling him and make him do whatever she desires. It’s the same with her other “friend” whom she calls “Boss” she uses him like a toy too.

The story isn’t particularly memorable, but it’s decent. She uses her boss to kill her father, then becomes famous, continues using men for her own benefit, and then another even crazier guy shows up who I think is actually worse than she is.

In short, if you want to watch a drama full of psychopaths, go for it!

Season made for money.

This is just my opinion:

This season is clearly filler. The series could (and should) have ended with Season 2. Making a second part of the story just to keep people waiting was a monumental mistake.

First of all, Season 2 doesn’t have a story as intriguing as Season 1, mainly because we already know who runs the games and how they work overall. Here, we’re just following a character whose goal isn’t particularly relevant.

We follow the story of Player 456,
but also the father’s story,
the woman’s story,
the brother searching for his brother,
and the pregnant girl with her ex.

In short, it’s really messy. Even though some of their individual stories are good, it’s an absolute mess overall.

The ending was predictable but logical the death.

Anyway, this is a season that shouldn’t have existed as Season 3. The series should have just ended with Season 2.

Good season but…

After watching this season 2 this is my review :

Why release a Season 2 that only covers half the story and then make us wait for Season 3?

I think this decision annoyed a lot of people, and I’m one of them. Literally, Season 2 and 3 could have easily been combined into one single season of 10-12 episodes. I really don’t understand why they chose to split it in two, especially with such an important scene.

The story is good, but not as memorable as Season 1. This time the goal is to save people and find out who’s really in charge. The people are still as stupid as ever they see that he knows the games but decide not to believe him. It’s honestly so dumb.

That said, the games themselves are really good. I was pleasantly surprised! The new protagonists are solid too.

The parallel story with the guards is also very interesting.

The cop who’s still looking for his brother makes sense, so that’s fine.

Overall, it’s a good Season 2, but it could have clearly ended the series in just 2 seasons instead of 3.

W s1!

I watched Season 1 several times before Season 2 and 3 came out, and here’s my review:

Season 1 is really excellent. Great main and supporting actors, solid performances, a good plot, and well-executed twists.

The games are nicely violent. “Red Light, Green Light” honestly, if you’ve never watched the series before, it’s pure pleasure!

I also think the glass bridge game, where you have to figure out which one is safe or you die, is incredible!

The marble game, where you either play or betray your partner full of suspense and stress! Especially the emotional moment with Ali and the scene between the two girls.

The final game where he has to fight against his friend the ending was predictable, but it was still really well done. And the conclusion where he wins the money but wants to go back to the games… a great ending!

Season 3: Hyun-su’s dual personality is amazing and makes him even more badass. The reunion between Eun-yu and her brother was really interesting. Having one person with a double personality (one side still somewhat human, the other completely devoid of humanity) led to an epic fight scene. Then the alliance where one helps the other escape while trying to solve the bigger problem… The scene where Yi-kyung is killed by her husband in front of their child genuinely shocked me. And the finale was full of intense battles, the fake death of the little girl, Eun-yu becoming like her brother… I thought it was a really good ending.

so watch sweet home !

The first season was already so good that I was afraid season 2 would be awful compared to season 1, but what a surprise! Not at all, the story is really great, I wasn't bored for a second while watching the season. The script, the visuals, the acting—everything is really good.

The scene where Hyun-su is tortured in the pit, then his escape where he's frozen, was incredible. Meanwhile, Eun-yu desperately searches for him and his brother, enduring numerous hardships. The encounter with Yi-kyung's daughter leads to that poignant moment when he catches her mid-air, resulting in their reunion. That scene made me smile. And then there's the part where the little girl transforms her mother into a monster… we kind of suspected it once we understood the character. A truly successful second season.

A good drama with schoolkids who have superpowers, but:

Overall, the story is solid and there’s great chemistry between the main characters whether it’s the parents or the students. Personally, the only thing I didn’t like about the story was the sequence about the parents’ past. It was way too long.
Sure, it helped us understand the mother and father’s story, but I think it could have been shortened a bit. I’ll admit that after a certain number of episodes focused on that, I felt a little demotivated. But as soon as the main story picked up again, I was instantly hooked once more!The final scene with the destroyed school and everything was really incredible!

The acting from the characters is good nothing to complain about on that front.
The OSTs are good too.

if you like drama with powers watch this!

Fun and Realistic

I’m pretty new to medical series/dramas, but here’s my review:

I really enjoyed the story. It follows a young woman who is in debt and doesn’t want to work in this field again. I found the medical scenes very well made. At the same time, I looked up information about the job and noticed that it was quite accurately portrayed! There’s also a mini romance included, which was quite cute, along with some conflicts between certain characters. Overall, it was really good.The characters have great dynamics with each other, and there’s a nice connection between the superiors and the new staff members.

The music is good too.

I think series in this style, like The Trauma Code and others, have a lot of potential. I wouldn’t say no to a Season 2! Seeing how she evolves after the end of Season 1 would be interesting.

In short, I recommend it if you like medical dramas!
