Love Lurking: Faces We Cannot Forget

🔹 Can one heart survive loving someone who might not even exist?
🔹 Would I rewatch? Yes. And just a heads-up, this one is seriously addictive
🔹Short-form score = based on addictiveness and lead chemistry rather than production

📕 Overview
🔹 Episode count: 21 episodes
🔹 Short episodes, about 13 minutes each
🔹 Yang Bing Zhuo as K / Song Qian sometimes feels like two different people: at times dangerous and mysterious, and at other times so distant and cold that you want to yell at him.
🔹 Zhao Xi Xi portrays Gu Nian as a brave yet scared surgeon, striving to do the right thing despite the risks.
🔹 It all starts when Gu Nian throws herself into saving K, then gets yanked deeper into his criminal world. Down the line, she stumbles into an executive named Song Qian, who bears a resemblance to K and instantly brings back all the heartache and confusion.
🔹 At the time of this review, only 6 episodes have aired.
🔹 Honestly, if you’re someone who likes to marathon dramas, maybe wait until all 21 episodes are out, because these cliffhangers will get you.
🔹 It’s the kind of show that makes you want to text someone after every episode.
🔹 Heads-up: the medical scenes are easy to understand so that you won’t need a medical degree.
🔹The real fun is in guessing what happens next, especially with those surprising plot twists that you'll want to discuss with friends later.
🔹 It’s part of the newer wave of short-form dramas. You can watch multiple episodes during lunch or late at night, and the emotions still hit hard.

🌸 How It Felt Watching
🔹Sitting there with snacks, I wondered if Gu Nian would ever catch a break.
🔹The show feels like standing in front of two mirrors: one reflecting love and the other danger.
🔹 It keeps you second-guessing.
🔹 Tone: tender, tense, always shadowed by longing
🔹 Themes: identity, second chances, protecting yourself, art of learning to let go
🔹 This series reminds me of "Coroner’s Diary" due to its intense emotional stakes and constant twists.
🔹While "Coroner’s Diary" is set in a historical era with forensic elements, this one unfolds in modern hospital corridors and corporate intrigue.
🔹Both dramas blend personal recovery, mystery, and surprising moments that leave you saying, "Wait, what just happened?"

✨ Cast & Acting
🔹 Yang Bing Zhuo oscillates between heartbreaker and heart-shaker, leaving you uncertain of his true feelings.
🔹 Zhao Xi Xi as Gu Nian is tough but vulnerable, and every time she has a setback, she comes back swinging.
🔹 The supporting crew includes Tang Longcan, Wang Jiahui, and Zhou Xingxing.
🔹They bring so much tension and chaos that it feels like a group of friends trying to survive a wild weekend.

🎵 OST
🔹 In The Darkness by Bei Bei (贝贝)
🔹 Heartfall by Zhou Shen (周深)

🎞️ Production Style
🔹 Scenes feel urgent, keeping you on edge
🔹 Hospitals to rooftops, every backdrop screams danger
🔹 Direction keeps things moving, barely a slow scene, before the next twist.

☕ Tea Notes
🔹 What worked: The chemistry, the music, and those fast-paced episodes.
🔹 If you’re anything like me, you’ll want to binge the whole thing in one weekend. It’s just that addictive.
🔹 What didn’t: Some feelings got rushed, and a few twists made me pause and wonder, “Wait, why did that happen?”
☕SpillTheDramaTea’s Rating: 10/10
🌿 Tea-Scale: Like a bold cup that stings first but leaves you warm and wanting a refill.
✏️ This drama will make you rethink things. Are you drawn to the person in front of you, or the memories they bring?

If you're confused, you might as well skip the movies.

First things first. Don't judge me, but as someone who doesn't watch Kdrama, I have NOT watched the Kdrama or even read the original webtoon. So the "Megami Kourin" Before and After movies is the only version of this story that I am familiar with. I believe that's good, because this way I won't judge it based on the original webtoon or the drama, and will have a relatively unbiased perspective, compared to the ones who have watched and read those.

Another thing- my almost sole reason for watching this movie is- Tsuna Keito. As he himself said in a live event, this is his BIGGEST WORK SO FAR, both as an actor and a singer. So I'll probably talk a whole lot about him in this review. You can skip some of those parts in case you don't care about him.

One last thing, I'm reviewing both of these movies as one whole story, instead of considering them as two different films. I binged them, so they feel more like 2 episodes of the same drama to me. So that's another thing to note before you read this review.

Oh, and SPOILER ALERT. With that out of the way, here's another review from yours truly.

Plot: 7/10
There's the girl, Reina, who was bullied because she was less than great looking in school, causing her to close herself off from the world for 2 years until she learned how to use makeup and decided to go back to attending school again. By chance, she meets someone (Shun, the Ice Prince) from her school who shares her interest in horror films, at a place she frequents, and he sees her without makeup. He recognizes her in her "goddess" form at school and that's where the story begins. Oh, and one time, Shun's ex best friend (Yu/the Heir, or more like the superstar singer) randomly stands up for her against her former bullies at her workplace. I later discovered that this is not as random and over the top as it was shown to be, it has to do with the fact that Reina happens to be co-workers with Yu's younger sister, Rin. So, Shun and Reina bond over horror films, while Reina and Yu bond over them both knowing Rin. It is pretty dumb, but Yu falls for her when they both go to buy a birthday gift for Rin.
My experience with this adaptation was maybe different in the way that the primary couple takes a loooooooong time (3 years in the story, for goodness' sake) to happen, despite there being obvious mutual attraction from the start. Oh, and I didn't completely hate the main male lead, despite him having a sadistic (no offense to the fans of Shun/Watanabe Keisuke) kinda look on his face whenever he wasn't genuinely smiling.

If the "True Beauty" Kdrama wasn't so popular, and I hadn't Googled the Japanese name of the movie and seen the Kdrama poster in the search suggestions, then I probably wouldn't have known that these movies were adapted from a Korean webtoon or that it had previously been adapted into a Kdrama. Without taking that into consideration, the plot is pretty much run of the mill Shoujo manga plot. There's a girl, a boy... And another boy. And as someone who has accepted the fate of having eternal chronic second lead syndrome, I had totally quit watching Shoujo manga adaptations... Until I saw this movie's poster, heard that Keito will be a singer... And here I am, fan girling over his songs.

Cast/Characters: 8/10
Reina was alright. Typical Shoujo manga lead. Hated that her trust issues decided who she ends up with. Kōki was alright considering she had basically zero acting experience. But yeah, like some others said, she wasn't great with the comedy scenes. I wonder who they would've selected for this role if good acting was a deciding factor.

If I just glance at the actors, and state my opinion, I think Keito is definitely better looking than Keisuke. It has to do with the fact that I like a softer, kinder face (Keito) than an edgy, sharp and colder face (Keisuke). Nonetheless, they're both pretty good actors, so the acting was alright from them as well. I keep thinking though, if they only cast the characters based on looks alone. Because in an interview, the author Yaongyi mentioned how similar Keisuke looks to the drawing of the male lead...

If I look at Shun individually as a character, he's actually quite okay, surprisingly, since I usually saw that Shoujo manga main male leads have an unlikable personality. His story was alright too, he had to take care of his mom, poor guy. And then he moved to the US to live with his dad. Got the girl, succeeded in his desired career. Happy ending. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Now, my main topic, Yu. I'll remind you that I have chronic eternal second lead syndrome (many times, it has been caused by Keito himself). So despite every ridiculous thing, I ended up on Yu's team. I mean, if I had someone with a singing voice like him chasing after me, I would've agreed to marry him after listening to the first line. Not to mention, he even looks better than Shun, in my opinion. And fortunately, despite being the second lead, his character got a decent amount of character development and focus, not the romantic focus, though.

The rest of the cast was good. No complaints there. More about the cast coming up in the next section.

Production: 7/10
If you couldn't guess from the visuals, this production has a fairly high budget. The cast cameos it had amd the name of the studio attached to it is proof of that. I wish that they utilized the budget better, though, instead of spending all of it on the cast, marketing and aesthetics. And they definitely should have inserted the "Unmei Dayo Na" song in the movie. If you're gonna produce it, then why not insert it in the movie?

Music:9/10
My highlight and the best part of the movies. It has been my dream to hear Keito sing more solo songs since 2020. As someone who is IN LOVE with his voice, I find the biggest, and perhaps the sole success of these movies to be the 3 songs sung by Keito- 2 versions of Tokubetsu Nante and Unmei Dayo Na. Tokubetsu Nante is a super sad song about unrequited love that goes with Yu's story in the films. I usually don't listen to songs like this, but I had to make an exception for this one. I have a soft spot for acoustics, so the acoustic one wins for me.
Unmei Dayo Na is a hopeful song, even though it is still a love song. I wish Yu's story turned out to be more like this song. And I also wish it was inserted in one of the movies.

Besides Keito/Yu's songs, the ending theme song of the film, Tokimeki by Kucci (who also wrote and composed all 3 of the songs from the films) was alright. It contrasts Yu's softer, slower Tokubetsu Nante, and goes well with the Shoujo manga genre and visuals. I will say though, that I'm not fan of such loud songs. Thus, the less than perfect score.

Rewatch value: 2/10
If not the music videos and Yu's performance parts of the movies, I'm not gonna rewatch this adaptation. Who wants to rewatch heartache? Not me. I'm certainly hoping this is the last time I have to see Keito play the second lead in a movie. And I most definitely hope that this is the last Shoujo manga adaptation that he gets involved with.

Overall: 6.5/10.
Other than Tsuna Keito/Yu and his music, this story is not worth watching, in all honesty. If you don't care about Shoujo mangas, or the cast or the original webtoon, or the Kdrama, skip the movies. However, DO NOT skip Yu's music. You'll love the music, no matter what.

meaning in a meaningless existence

I love this show so much, my lord. I would recommend it 100%. I ended up giving this a 9 out of 10. I think that this show was fantastic, and I finished it so long ago, I am just so lazy and forget to write reviews. So y'all know the drill, what I liked, what I didn't like, a little overview, and then my final thoughts. So yeah, let's get into it (peep spoiler time lmao).

I thought the plot of this show started off okay, and then it got really good. I enjoyed how they developed the show more and more as the episodes continued. The characters from the start were fantastic, especially all my vampires, immaculate casting, because god damn. The movements, the acting, the weird twilight vibe to it, I loved it. So this is the first thing that I have seen Joss in, and he and those sleepy eyes lured me all the way in. I think that his acting is good, and it was fantastic whenever he had to play the "vampire" part. Specifically, anytime that Tong's blood or sweat came into play, he got so into that, and it was truly great. On the other hand, I think that Gawain did an amazing job as well, but I also love him so much, no matter what he does. Tong's whole character had the most development, and my husband did a good job playing the "innocent character." What else? I liked their chemistry; it felt very mature and was very nice to watch. THOSE SEX SCENES. OH MY LORD. THAT WAS AMAZING. The lightning, the music, everything. Yeah, I might just be a big fan of vampire shit, but I had a lot of fun watching this, and I am rewatching right now. Also, I want to highlight the end of episode 8, that sex scene marked the change in their dynamic. It went from predator and prey to predator and "and what?" What that means is that it went from being hunted and scared to kind of like a playful dynamic, and I messed with this. The way Tong forced Mark to face the blood so they could continue having sex and also their relationship, was so HOTTTT and fantastic. Yeah, I also liked Mond's character, especially towards the end. Like he was never a good guy and they didn't even try to make him one lmao. I liked the end and how the cycle continued; that was fantastic and a great way to do it. There's probably more, but that is all for now.

What I did not like. Well, I did enjoy the ending of them living together for the rest of eternity, but I did not like THAT THEY FUCKING KILLED EVERYONE. Like tonkla gets clapped by Nakan, and then Tara died, the flower lady, and then Nakan, all in a 20-minute span. My lord, they did not need to do that. Miserable. I also did not like Tonkla's character. I think that he was such a fucking opposition the ENTIRE TIME. Like, there's a reason Tong did not tell you ANYTHING you are out to get him. I enjoyed the golden aspect a lot, but that got so cringe in some parts, and it made me want to die. Also, the plot for the first 4-ish episodes. I don't want to be that person, but it's my marker, everything before their kiss scene and their first sex scene was ass. ASS I TELL YOU. I understand they were trying to set everything up, but it was so unbelievably boring, I had to stop watching this shit. But it got better, but tough watch at first. THE SINGING FUCKK NOOOO. G, we know you can sing, but fuck off, it was in such random parts that it made it unbearable. Also, the fact that Mark has been protecting Tong since he was a baby was also kind of weird, but that's fine. Yeah, I think that's all.

OVERVIEW TIMEEEE. The fact that when he bleeds, he gets hunted is geniuely mortifying. Pretty good setup at first. The good vampire bad vampire shit was like Twilight lmao. Took me so long to finish/write this review. I started in high school, and now I am writing the review in college. Scary stuff. The casting was great. This show was also pretty fun in parts, and it was good. Tong is a dumb ass. "I would follow Joss to the ends of the earth, bro." Pride and Prejudice reference was PEAK. Tomato juice. "I [would] watch out for those neck kisses because he's a fucking vampire, you dumb shit, clearly, bro did not have his brain screwed on tight." JERK OFF SCENE WAS CRAZYYYYY. I was like Why does he keep cutting him when they kiss? IT'S BECAUSE HIS SALVIA MAKES HIS TEETH COME OUT, STUPIDDDD. G's eyelashes are so sexy. "[G] eyelashes are the most distracting thing in the whole show behind his sexy abs and Joss's abs." KLA GOT CLAPPED AND MOND HAS THE SEXIEST FACE EVER. A 10/10 twist from this show because I lowkey didn't expect it. "A couple of years versus an eternity, and those couple of years changed his eternity forever." Good ending.

Okay, and yeah. I think this was overall a good show with some flaws, but I am on my 3rd rewatch, so that should tell you everything that you need to know lmao. Okay bye!

Good fluff for when you're sad or stressed

This is a not-too-deep drama that has some charming moments and decent chemistry. It's fluffy and nice, with little angst. The low angst is somewhat surprising given the premise, in which one of the leads makes a choice that is sure to hurt the other, but the show doesn't delve too deeply into the pain and resolves things quickly.

The biggest potential turn off (assuming you're okay with fan-idol pairings) is that the idol lead is somewhat immature. In my opinion it fits with the sort of narrow life experience an idol has and while he makes a bad choice at the beginning, he doesn't actually come across as a bad person, and he shows some growth. However, I could see his choices and his immaturity sitting poorly with some viewers.

The couple is cute. It's definitely a cute romance rather than a passionate one. I recommend for days when you're sick, sad, or generally feeling down and you want a distraction.

Maintained the standard in many ways

AiB season 1 and 2 has always been my absolute favourite in this genre. Everything about the show was fabulous.Season 2 ending was perfect. And that's why when Netflix announced season 3,I became skeptical, will it be another cash grab nonsense story stretching like Squid Game?? Are they gonna ruin one of the majestic show ever??

Well today I got my answer....nope,the thrill is still there,the connection is still there. Arisu and Usagi still fighting strong together and got their very much deserving happy ending!And that surprise at the end.... Gotta give the show 10/10 only for that few minutes!!!!Was it as good as Season 1 and 2? No,definitely not!!! But was it bad.... NOPE!

What bothered me was some of the new characters. That Professor was weird,ngl. He creeped out many times and his character arc was not much convincing.And Banda as citizen wasn’t doing much... Just casually making plots to bring back Arisu. Also the new players... Well I am very much attached to the og's, Chishiya,Kuina,Ann,Aguni,Niragi,Tatta,Chota,Karube.... Cause their stories were told amazingly in the last two seasons,all of them left their marks. Aib is not Aib without them!Who knows,if there were more episodes,I could also connect myself more with the new ones too!!Some characters felt like just wasted potentials.

One thing AiB will always be remembered for is its games... And this season was thrilling too. Every game was mind bending. It was good to see Arisu taking charge in each game... Man was in so much trauma and depression in the last seasons,this time he proved again why he is a pro. But...I must say... I missed Chishiya!!!

Story writing was not as good as the previous ones,there were some hiccups here and there. But one thing really bothered me,is Aib also gonna have an American version like SG?? What was that in the last few minutes??Who asked for that? What is the need??

However,it was a good ending. I was thrilled,emotional,happy. AiB itself created the standard,so happy they remained true to it,didn't fully ruin the magic.This show deserves so much hype,I hope it gets what it deserves.It is probably the last time we're seeing them.... So it was the best farewell indeed!

GMMTV finally getting a bigger budget

I've love SeaKeen since Only Boo and I see them developing more and more, which makes me very happy.
There's something I would add to this series - the OST sung by Keen. I know it's only 4 episodes, but he has such an angelic voice that it would be a shame not to add it.
Also I love the self-promo in the first ep XDD When Eer was watching Break-Up service i saw that the video was ending at 1:27 and I dont think its a coincidence ESPECIALLY because most of the GMMTV artists are nctzens

I don't quite understand the students when they found out Mawin is Seer TK. He may not be an actual fortune teller, but his advice has helped others so I don't see any problem (if they just feel lied to I kinda understand)

There's also something I noticed about Mawin. He probably has autism. He was quite non-verbal around others, used advanced language, literally is a mathematic genius and he never had any friends but what I noticed the most was that he really likes listening to the radio. When he showed Eer what he was listening to, he started talking a lot about it, which in my opinion is a special interest. To add even more, Eer then said that he never heard him say a longer sentence before.

Don't give up on the series early, it gets better

As I got involved watching this series, it really didn't feel like it was going to turn into anything special, at least that's the way I felt early on. The story seemed really good, meeting up and working with someone you idolized from a distance, but not letting them know about it, then of all things, getting involved with that person romantically ... it's a great story to watch play out, but it didn't seem to be working. The first five episodes seemed boring, with the acting and writing lacking a bit ... AND, I'm not exactly sure what happened from episode 6 and beyond, but it changed for the better in a big way. It was like a new drama started. The story became very interesting, the acting finally showed up in a big way ... and the series was enjoyable right through the ending.
Si Yeol & Ae Jun go from looking extremely uncomfortable, to a perfect fit as you get into the late episodes. It turns out to be a great match up with the supporting cast coming into focus in the last few episodes.
Kang Min & Kevin definitely step up in performance in the later part of the series, showing some great scenes in episode 9 & 10, making you forget the early part of the drama.
In the end, it's a great finish and it turns out to be a great story with the acting to match.

A fluffy story with fatal flaws...

This is a fantasy BL every K-Pop fan was waiting for. A K-Pop idol meets one of his die-hard fans and so the story begins. Too bad there was no focus on the music too and what we got was not that impressive. The series failed to make this a deep story about the struggles about idols. So we get a superficial story about idols but quite a nice romance. And when we think all will end well, we got the drama of our idol being a jerk. If it was me, I think I would not stayed that calm. This part of the story was ill adviced imho. They could have removed it and put more energy (and writing) in the second couple, because we got nearly nothing from their past and it would be much more interesting if they have explored that part. They chat in the finale and we do not see how the reconciled either - WTF? Another irk for me is that this is just about the idol without his other group-members. Where were they? Why is there no interaction with them. That felt completely unrealistic.

So overall, I'm a bit disappointed. I have no complains about the acting or chemistry or the production quality at all. I feel like the story is too flat. Using soundeffects does not make scenes more funnier as we all know. Of course they should have invested also more in the music to create an OST which could be remembered.

It's not a bad drama but it's not a stellar one either. It has more good sides than bad, so there is no reason not to watch it, especially if you are into the fluffy stuff.

Worth my time

When I first started watching 'The untamed' (陈情令), I knew it was based on the hugely popular Chinese danmei novel 魔道祖师 (Mo Dao Zu Shi), also known as 'The grandmaster of demon cultivation' by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu. As much as I adored the show, I can’t help feeling slightly disappointed. Because at its heart, this is a love story, but the drama, due to censorship, never fully lets that love blossom onscreen. Instead, it dances around it with lingering glances, shared silences, and unspoken devotion. It’s beautiful but also a little heartbreaking, not because of what happens, but because of what’s missing. 'The untamed' had an uphill battle from the start. Due to China’s censorship laws. So instead of presenting Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji as romantic partners, the show rebrands them as “soulmates” or “best friends,” and leans heavily on subtext. But here’s the surprising part, despite all the restrictions, 'The untamed' manages to remain shockingly faithful to the heart of the story. Both versions follow the same dual timeline structure. The “present” story of Wei Wuxian’s resurrection and investigation, and the “past” story of his rise and fall. Major events, like the Sunshot Campaign, the burial mounds, the Yi City arc, and the final confrontation, are intact. Wei Wuxian remains his charming, sarcastic, brilliant self, torn between doing what's right and being punished for it. Lan Wangji is still the stoic, rule-bound cultivator who slowly reveals his hidden passion and unwavering loyalty. Even secondary characters like Jiang Cheng, Wen Ning, Lan Xichen, and Jin Guangyao are faithfully adapted. At its heart, both the novel and drama explore freedom vs. tradition, personal morality vs. public perception, and the dangers of blind loyalty to rules. Wei Wuxian constantly challenges the status quo, while Lan Wangji learns to quietly rebel against it. Even with the censorship, 'The untamed' manages to capture the emotional intensity of Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji’s relationship. Every shared glance, every moment of silent understanding, every time one steps in front of danger for the other. It’s clear what they mean to each other. And that’s a testament to the actors’ performances, especially Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo, who convey a deep, believable bond without ever saying “I love you.” The biggest difference is that they don’t get together in the drama. In the novel, they are canonically in love. Lan Wangji confesses. They share kisses, cuddles, and a life together. In fact, the extras show them raising Lan Sizhui as a family. Their relationship is not just hinted at; it’s central. But in the drama, it's all subtext. No romantic confession. No kiss. No “Wei Ying” spoken in a whisper. No post-canon domesticity. The most intimate moments, like the forehead ribbon moment (symbolising intimacy), are completely removed. The drunken confession, where Lan Wangji spills his heart while drunk, is toned down. The ending, in the drama, is more open-ended. In the novel, Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji walk off together into their future. For viewers who were emotionally invested in their love story (myself included), it’s frustrating. The story builds and builds, only to leave us at the end with ambiguity. They're clearly more than friends, but the show never says it. It’s not that they needed to kiss to prove their love. But a single moment of clarity, a word, a gesture, a future would have made all the difference. In the novel, Lan Wangji is much more expressive—especially in internal monologues or moments of vulnerability. We see his jealousy, his devotion, his pain. In the drama, he’s portrayed more stoically, and we miss out on some of those emotional depths unless we read between the lines. Despite my disappointment, I can’t deny that 'The untamed' is still an incredible show. It brings the world of Mo Dao Zu Shi to life with beautiful cinematography, haunting music, excellent casting, and strong emotional storytelling. Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo carry the show with grace and subtlety. Their performances manage to convey a love that’s deeper than words, even if it’s never spoken aloud. And the show deserves praise for doing as much as it did under heavy restrictions. 'The untamed' is a masterclass in adaptation under constraint. It captures the spirit and soul of *Mo Dao Zu Shi, even if it can't show the romance in full. It’s beautiful, tragic, emotional, and memorable.

Piercing the Bubble: The Disruptive Realism of 'Memoir of Rati'

My journey as a BL enthusiast began in an era when the genre could barely be named, taking refuge under the label of homoeroticism. For me, especially in novels, it has become a sanctuary, an essential escape from a work life where reality is often chaotic and disappointing. BL is my personal utopia; if the academic definition speaks of "an imaginative representation of a future society conducive to human well-being," I would unhesitatingly define it as a utopia designed for women—in a manner analogous to how most mainstream entertainment operates: by prioritizing and celebrating the male gaze and taste.
It is precisely for this reason that Memoir of Rati (GMMTV 2025) emerges as a meticulously conceived work, steeped in a classic atmosphere that is palpable in every detail —from the set design and soundtrack to the costumes and performances. The series abruptly pulls us out of the characteristic utopian universe of BL, where conflicts are usually confined to misunderstandings, love triangles, or the appearance of a vengeful ex-partner, and plunges us into a historical period of wartime and colonial conflicts. In this narrative, the characters confront head-on the social incomprehension and tangible risks that a BL relationship entails, both in the past and the present, starkly reminding us that love does not always blossom within the shelter of a bubble.
It is a deliberately slow-paced narrative, though its conclusion may seem rushed. That said, it is loaded with moments of extreme tension and injustice, which explains why many viewers might feel reticent to watch it. My recommendation is to give it a chance with its first two episodes. Only then will one understand why the opening song speaks of a "miracle" (https://youtu.be/qxBmzCnwJcE?si=h98cVsxJBOLct0f_). That very understanding may be the hook that draws you in to watch the rest of the series.
It is a genuine shame to have discovered this "ship" just as it was ending, but there is a poetic consolation in seeing its protagonists in one final, brilliant collaboration. With a mix of nostalgia and joy, I now immerse myself in a new world: I am ready to begin Wandee Goodday (GMMTV 2024).

Cool!

I’ve known about this show for a long time, but I was kinda reluctant to watch it. Just recently, I finally got in the mood to check it out—and I’m glad I did. The plot is really unique, especially the way they did the monsters and the whole “monsterization” thing.

Usually in other supernatural shows or movies, like with zombies, infection spreads through bites or blood. But here, it’s totally different. At first it’s a bit hard to understand, but the more you watch, the more interesting it gets.

The cast is pretty good too, and I like that a lot of the characters actually use their brains to survive instead of just rushing into things.

If you’re into supernatural stuff with a unique twist and a little bit of sci-fi, this one’s for you. I honestly can’t wait to start Season 2.

Not as Sharp as Before, but Still a Thrilling Ride

Alice in Borderland Season 3 isn’t quite as tightly developed or emotionally layered as Seasons 1 and 2, but I still enjoyed it a lot. Some of the characters feel a little less fleshed out this time, and the pacing dips here and there, yet the show still delivers where it matters most: the games.

The Fire Arrow Game, the Zombie Game, Kick the Can, and especially the last game were all so creative, tense, and visually striking that they kept me glued to the screen. Those moments reminded me why I fell in love with this series in the first place.

And my GOAT Arisu is still shining. His intelligence, compassion, and resilience once again anchor all the chaos around him and make him such a compelling lead.

Season 3 might not reach the same heights as the first two seasons, but it’s still an adrenaline-charged continuation of the story and absolutely worth watching if you’ve been following from the start.
