Could the cheating be minimized?
okay i'll keep it short..but please.. could they keep LESS cheating plots.. once was fine.. we could have Jai as the antagonist.. but what is the meaning of having Teh as both the protagonist and the antagonist? I loved the cinematography.. but please.. the story was just too too much, i got bored by the last episodes seeing how much TEH COULD CHEAT. please? just tell me ONE good/cute about the season?
yea, i get it.. they were trying to show reality.. but at this point.. even in real life.. a character like Teh is supposed to be an ex.. NOT the main lover..
i just dont get it why would they normalize cheating like this, in a sequel to such a famous series ITSAY..
and one more thing.. this one might be personal.. but the red hair? 😑😑 nah i really didnt like it at all-

So much potential but all wasted
One would think there are 2 love triangles with main leads with sml sfl but nope fl and sml were like siblings nothing much and they dont even hold hands.
Fl always thought of him as a brother
Meanwhile sfl ml had a full on hugs and almost kisses and they even slept together Hugging the whole night (yeah nothing major happened but still) it was intimacy still.
And sfl constantly lied manipulated but gave no punishment and kept her around.
And then the absolute closing for me was ml marrying sfl that closed all gates for ml fl to get together for me. ...its ewww
Don't why would anyone would write romance and then make ml marry another. DISGUSTING!!

My exact question: People loves agonizing story, huh?
This drama is perfect example they live in their 2023 mind. Agonizing love when FL wasted their precious time to someone useless.FL is miserable from beginning to end. "Gentle yet resilient" = weak but incredibly hardworking, her resilience is all used for enduring hardship. ML really has a white moonlight (ideal love), and he only has a whirlwind marriage with the FL because he thinks she looks like his white moonlight. He says he doesn't love SFL anymore, but his actions contradict his words. Between his white moonlight and FL, ML always chooses the white moonlight Classic favor outsourcing: the male lead owes his white moonlight a favor, outsourcing it to the FL to force her to back down.
Not watching it was the right decision. i made the wrong decision. You need to do another thing beside watching this.

TRIGGER WARNING
PLEASE DO NOT WATCH THIS. I dont normally have a problem with dark drama, but this has no plot. It’s straight up rape. It’s sickening.Korean BLs have never disappointed me in the past. Secret Relationships is one of my all time favourites. And that wasn’t your typical cute fluffy KBL.
Do yourself a favour and please avoid this. I can’t believe I watched all 3 episodes. About 5- 6 mins each. That’s 15 mins of my life I’ll never get back 🤦🏻♀️🤬

Cute Movie
This kdrama was for a very young audience. I thought it would be mostly about a boy bands performance and success, but they rarely performed. The FL lead said the words ‘I’m Sorry’ so many times that it made me dizzy. Overall, the drama was sweet. The music was good and I really liked the song that the main Ml did a remake of was really nice.Was this review helpful to you?
A Visually Stunning Series Carried by Powerful Performances, Despite an Uneven Plot
Reset is a series that is heavily carried by its outstanding cast, each of whom delivers a remarkably strong performance in their respective roles. Even the villainous characters are so convincing that they genuinely provoke frustration, to the point where I found myself reacting out loud in front of my laptop. Armin, portrayed by Pond, excels particularly in emotional and sorrowful scenes, showcasing impressive depth and authenticity.The production quality of the series is also commendable, every aspect feels aesthetically pleasing, beautifully crafted, and thoughtfully executed. The chemistry between the characters is undeniable, contributing greatly to the overall impact of the story.
However, I do have some reservations. At times, the plot can feel inconsistent, occasionally illogical, somewhat convoluted, though there are moments where it works well. Additionally, the setting of Armin’s time travel to Bangkok in 1999 appears overly luxurious and somewhat exaggerated, which slightly disrupts the sense of realism.
That said, setting aside these issues, I genuinely enjoyed the series and found it to be a very engaging watch.
Final ranking :
Chemistry : 92 A+
Acting : 95 A+
Cinematograpghy : 85 A
Storyline / Plot : 70 A-
Overall : 85.5 A

Cute show with tons of character growth
We Are Worse at Love than Pandas is fun, cute, heartwarming, and filled with character growth. Shibata Ichiha is trying to find her way as a worker at a magazine company when they get a new tough and straightforward editor in chief Fujisaki. Ichiha is tasked to write articles for a model she worshipped when growing up named Aria, who she finds to be extremely cold and unwilling to help. By chance, Aria's assistant introduces Ichiha to Professor Shido, who has absolutely zero interest in human relationships, but ask him about any animal and he will happily give you a fun lecture on their behaviour.The base of the show deals with Ichiha gathering material to write romance articles on and the once very famous model Aria to get the credit. Ichiha struggles to understand the types of romantic issues as she herself is in a poor relationship, but gains unexpected help from Professor Shido who ends up helping as Ichiha relates animal courtship (QI code as it is referred to in the show). One charm is how well some of the human issues are, they are simple relationship problems that have these fun animal courtship-related solutions/advice for. With each issue solved, Ichiha, and her friends all end up learning and maturing from the lessons. Nobody is evil, it's about overcoming obstacles, and all the main characters and support characters are involved.
Ichiha is absolutely the heart of the show. Professor Shido is at first the comedic relief but even he has his moments. Aria as well has a great storyline to follow throughout.
This show overall is a comedic, heartwarming, and light on romance show that focuses on how we as humans may complicate our relationship issues, and looking at our animal friends may simplify how we solve them.

Engaging storlyline, seasoned acting, wholesome
I did not expect this to be this funny and engaging throughout all the 7 episodes, the director do not let us get bored even the slightest, crisp editing style, screenplay is good, overall feel good show, very light weight, and every actor did great in portraying their characters . It is not a mind blowing show but definitely worth the watch. Loved every scene ! Also juniormark's chemistry is good obviously, but ohmpoon stole the show for me. waiting for the rest of the episodes.Was this review helpful to you?
Wild chemistry, good acting!
Simply stunning work! Too bad it's a short! I can't even believe this was first collaboration between this duo, who first attracted attention in the series H2H. They already proved themselves brilliant there; their chemistry was the saving grace of the entire show for me, and here they once again confirmed my thoughts: they have a great future together, as they are such effortless, natural, beautiful, and chemistry-filled actors!Was this review helpful to you?
i recommend it to who wants friendship stories
I'm glad i found this drama. i was looking for a series focus on friendship and tbh i didn't expect to see that in this one. i can say it was good enough.it wasn't like that the friend was there only to support the FL as it's always shown in stories. (and we can even see that with Xie Hong Zhu and his friend who work in funeral).
their friendship and their understanding of each other even when they changed was so beautiful and the abundance of scenes between them made me endure the romantic scenes and complete the drama till the end coz of their friendship.
gonna check the novel for sure.

It had protentional
It honestly felt like very little effort went into making this series. I didn't expect much because it's a mini-series, but is it too much to ask for them not to repeat the same scene and dialogue 3+ times? It wasn't necessary, and it felt like they were doing it simply to increase the run time.The leads had good chemistry and were cute, but they could also pass for brothers.
I also felt like the ending could have been a real punch in the gut if this had been a normal-length series, and it had gotten the buildup and emotional investment it needed.

typical teen series
First of all, I really didn't understand where exactly it was supposed to be interesting, where I should laugh, and where I should admire. I've watched enough Thai, Korean, and American series, it's not that important, and this series is no different from 90% of low-quality series, in which one character chases another character with absolutely childish jokes and flirtatious lines. I couldn't even get through three full episodes; I had to constantly rewind. I don't know who likes these kinds of plots, but everything seems humiliating. This kind of humor is completely incomprehensible to me PERSONALLY. It's a typical production, an unremarkable series and actors. Its my opinion.Was this review helpful to you?
this is a good job
First of all, I'm truly amazed by the beauty and dedication of Mark and Junior. They're truly great actors and deserve praise! This series has its share of exaggerated plot points and nuances, but the overall picture is truly great! I laughed a lot at moments, but there's also some drama. I really like everything about it. The main couple is so sweet, their chemistry is great. I can't really rate the music because it wasn't memorable, but I didn't have any negative feelings about it either.Was this review helpful to you?

Story 10/10. Wish it's executed better
First of all, the mangas was considered to be one of the best seinen story out there, so 10/10 for the story premises. The story is actually pretty dark and the ending made me feel empty (but in a good way). It has wonderful opening sequences as well.But the insert song (Shape of you by Ed Sheran) is really annoying because i don't think it fits the scenes. Also they try to make it funny in a comical way but it just lessen the story impact.
However, i still recommend this dorama, for the story premise and to see Kubota Masataka wonderfully executed his character having emotional breakdown once again
