Reviews

First reason why I watched this is because of the two leads. For the review, the 1st scene of Episode 1 is a bit boring for me. But don't worry that doesn't last long because getting deep into the female lead's monologue is a plus point. Those type of lines are worth it to listen. The next scene is something to look forward to. This is part of a number of interesting scenes that caught my interest. In Ep1&2,there are cameos and bits of scenes that will make you reminisce a recent story you're familiar with, a story that might even touched your heart then. You'll know what I am referring to when you already watched CLOY and The Player. That adds up the excitement and makes the drama more relatable to viewers at some point. Big factor however is the strange but not so strange relationship development between the two leads. It's not rushed and awkward. The scenes are scalating just right giving us time to appreciate how different the two leads are at the same time let's us see their connection and similarities. The excitement we get as viewers every time they meet is... (I don't know the exact word to describe it but there is that feeling you'll know when you watch it)! Also not to mention the humor this drama offers.

For the music, I ranked it seven for now. I know the OST is not bad but can't recall a memorable melody just yet compare to other dramas where you get hooked by the soundtrack right on the 1st episode. A few popular music however was featured.

For the 4 episodes so far, it's definitely worth watching. I will continue supporting this drama and see how it wraps up and I hope it wraps up great.

What i think about this?

The Acting was pretty good but although i think maybe with stabbing scenes the acting was a bit low. It might be because they didn't wanna involve much on the violence. However i have only watched 1 episode and I'm glad to say i will definitely watch it when all the episode are out. I really love the acting of the male lead but i would of liked a little bit more psycho acting. But overall i do think these acting have definitely mastered the show its very interesting. I really love plot on the first episode but however i think is it bit rushed. But i do suggest to wath it. The music was okay but i didn't take much notice the music.

Sopra ogni aspettativa

Avendo visto all'opera i due protagonisti in altre opere (PARK BO GUM in Reply1988, Moonlight Drawn By Clouds, Encounter ; Park Sodam in Parasite), mi aspettavo grandi cose e devo dire che questi due primi episodi hanno superato ogni più rosea aspettativa. Mi scuso se scrivo solo in italiano, ma era troppo lungo in inglese. Sono letteralmente affascinata da questa storia, Bo Gum ha realizzato l'ennesimo capolavoro, disegnando un personaggio diverso dai precedenti, così forte ma nello stesso tempo realista. Hye Joon, così si chiama, è bellissimo, simpatico, onesto, vorrebbe fare l'attore ma per ora fa diversi lavoretti per non pesare sulla famiglia, per i quali non sempre viene pagato. Fa anche il modello su chiamata ed è seguito sui Social dal personaggio di So Dam, una ragazza che fa la truccatrice, che vive alla giornata e che si rilassa dopo un intensa giornata solo sui social. Una ragazza come tante, con una vita normale almeno finché non irrompe Hye Joon. Poi ci sono tanti altri bravi attori, personaggi riusciti e godibili. Bella la colonna sonora, la fotografia è la sceneggiatura. La storia non è affatto banale, ho trovato coraggiosa la scelta di fare vedere come corruzione e offerte di altro tipo siano consuete nel mondo del lavoro. Difficile affrontare un mondo così duro senza una famiglia che ti appoggia. Non vedo l'ora di vedere altri episodi. Vorrei sin da ora congratularmi col talentuoso PARK BO GUM, ora arruolatosi per il servizio di leva obbligatorio nel suo Paese. Mi spiace che debba rimanere fermo due anni. Erano anni che non mi entusiasmavo così per un attore, l'ultimo mi pare un certo Di Caprio, e non immaginavo mi sarebbe capitato con un attore coreano. Seguo i drama per rilassarmi, gli attori sono a mio avviso bravi, ma senza lode o capaci di dare al personaggio così tante sfaccettature e emozioni. Non è così Park Bo Gum, da seguire senza dubbio nei suoi progetti. Per ora lo consiglio vivamente. Oltre le aspettative.

I love the way they act. Specially yibo s face expression are spot on . I have watched six episodes and I like the way story is moving. Two different way to solve a case. One by force and one by brain. Though it’s mystery drama but same time funny too . I like the story line as well as acting skills of leads. Song s character is very powerful as a female inner guard and she is performing it well. As compared to previous drama Wang Yibo s character is based on use of brain rather than fighting skills and he has improved his acting skills a lot. There is more to come and I am waiting for next episode to watch

First Impression: See Your Love

Overall: I'm excited to see where this romcom goes. 13 episodes about 25 minutes each. Airing on GagaOOLala (not Taiwan, Korea or Japan) https://www.gagaoolala.com/en/videos/4835/see-you-love-2024-e01 ; Viki https://www.viki.com/tv/40788c-see-your-love ; iQIYI https://www.iq.com/play/see-your-love-episode-1-dznrqstnns?lang=en_us ; WeTV https://wetv.vip/en/play/rigkbvj5a6vdcj1

Content Warnings: discrimination, fight

What I Liked
- the lead characters and their dynamic
- supportive family & friend
- representation (I'm not an expert, however it felt realistic)
- comedy moments (subverted tropes, the parents and what they did in their home, though not sure the purpose unless it was just a prank)

Room For Improvement
- the end of episode 1 was confusing as it was a preview for episode 2 but didn't seem to be a preview
- comedy sound effects
- needlessly dramatic ending of episode 2, perhaps it was trying to be funny but then it didn't go far enough for me

Primero. Como ciudadano de otro continente y de una cultura occidental conservadora consumista de contenidos repetitivos, la serie rompe estándares usuales, uno de ellos es la atracción no sólo física y sentimental, me atrevo a escribir espiritual de los "personajes" (Tine y Sarawat), pero no de los actores (Win y Bright tienen una relación complicada fuera de la serie, parece una relación de hermano mayor a un hermano menor, se entiende que Win es nuevo en la industria de la TV, pero se observa un Win nervioso al lado de Bright ).

Segundo. Existe una crítica sobre el uso de drogas, al momento que se planea dormir a Green en el festival. Es atrevido enseñar al público ese tipo de acciones, pero creo que lo manejaron con la ley de la causa y el efecto, al fin y al cabo la acción se le regreso a Tine. Vamos es el pan de todos los días ver ese tipo de actitudes en los jóvenes. Es lamentable y reprochable, pero la serie retrata la vida de cualquier estudiante del siglo XXI.

Tercero. La música de la banda Scrubb acompaña el dialogo romántico de los personajes. Y ahora con el tema musical interpretado por Bright, la historia se convierte en un mito ancestral de la humanidad (escrito en el Banquete de Sócrates), el amor entre la parte masculina y femenina de un par de hombres. Y pienso, en las primeras líneas de la historia, Tine se cuestiona, ando en busca de mi otra mitad de mi otro par...y ese par resulto ser su parte masculina.

Cuarto. El juego de palabras entre Salawat y Sarawat, es interesante, Tine, encuentra su refugio, su Salawat para expresar sus emociones que todo hombre tiene en algún momento de sus vidas.

Having watched the gorgeous LYF in other wonderful dramas like "Dream of Splendor" and "Meet Yourself", I was looking forward to watching "The Story of Rose".

I found the first few episodes fun and entertaining. LYF was lovely.

However, how she destroyed her boyfriend's home was, to me, unreasonable and "cray-cray". I felt that her actions were uncalled for. Yes, I can empathise with her emotions then but they could have behaved more sensibly and maturely. They could have communicated more calmly and in a better manner.

Thereafter, I felt torn between continuing and not continuing...

In the end, I decided to drop it and watch something else. I know that the actors and actresses in this drama are fine ones and I am pretty sure the show is, in general, all right... but episodes 8 to 10 (there-ish) were "the straw that broke the camel's back".

In one of the episodes it said that getting your throat sliced is painless which is not true. Overall it was an ok drama, but with many untrue facts and plots that made no sense . Acting was fairly good but the rest wasn't anything good, would not ever rewatch and I do not recommend to anyone. I recommend you to find another drama to watch that is better and more interesting, intriguing and exciting. It got boring fairly quickly and it just did not keep my attention for long and I am quite patient with dramas and films. Also in one of the episodes it describes Stockholm syndrome as freaky but victims can't help it. Also in one of the episodes one of the bad guys makes out like there is something wrong with crying in which there is not and it is also at times sexist to both females (making them seem weak) and males (toxic masculinity) . The show also names one of the characters fatty which seems like fat shaming and that's wrong. The characters never seem to get upset when someone died which just seems abnormal.

This is probably my first ever Cdrama that I dropped.

I had a huge expectation at the start as I like the main actor and actress but I decided to drop it simply because I couldn't find a reason to continue.

First, the production was pretty bad whereby the whole series are surrounded with only that few actors and actress. They supposed to be some leader and the young owner of that village which is quite a high-ranked people, but they got hardly any guards or servants where anyone can simply enter their house without people noticing lol

Secondly, like what was mentioned above, the main guy always enter second male lead's house out of nowhere and talk to the female lead, and once he finished talking, he just disappeared like nobody's businesses LOL. The main storyline was okay where the female lead mistaken the other guy as her prince charming but the detailed plot was ridiculous. The guy wanted the girl to steal something in Episode 1 but in Episode 5 they are still in their discussion, like seriously? How draggy can it be...

Thirdly, the choice of actor and actress could be better. I don't deny their acting were okay, but probably get some older actor and actress to act since their roles are like clan's leader but they look like kiddos in the show, I don't know if the makeup and dressing is the problem or just that their faces don't suit the roles.

Fourthly, the characteristic of the main leads weren't attractive as well. Female lead was so desperate and hopeless romantic to the extent that it became a bit annoying, male lead was too cringey and the second lead was not charming too. Lee Hong Yi was hunching all the way that makes him look so weird, I don't know why.

I heard from my friends that the story became better till the end but I still can't get past the first few episodes, but I can roughly guess what will happen after (by watching the closing credits). But since after watching, I still do not anticipate any of the scenes so I think it's time to drop it.

It got a nice ending song sung by Lee Hong Yi though :) That's probably the only thing I love about this show.

Interesting start

This is my second Ohm/Fluke series and it’s off to an interesting start. Story and timeline of events happening is certainly unique. It keeps me wanting to know what’s going to happen next. Production seem excellent, with the color palette being pleasing to the eye, fight scenes choreographed well, and the timing of scenes is good. The acting is good as well, with Ohm being believable as a playboy who doesn’t really take anything too seriously. The characters are all interesting at the moment such as Ohm’s character and his feisty sister, and the dialogue is good. Music is excellent, particularly the theme song. Since the series has only aired 2 episodes, I will update my rating as more are released. As of now, the series is living up to my expectations and keeping me glued in.

so fun and stupid and lovely

I love this show. It's very entertaining and the characters are extremely well thought out and developed from the jump which is nice.

I am a Latte appreciater bc he reminds me the most of friends of mine and also shows the most heart in the world.

Also one of those shows where I like the dynamics so much that I don't have a definitive end game couple in mind, and that's rare in bls.

Probably my favourite parts are how sitcomy it is which makes the characters very lovable but not stuck into one role and how sex positive it is.

This feels very unique and fresh in the thai bl space and I absolutely love this take on things. Especially the very natural weaving of different sexualities and crushes without unnecessary angst about it. This is what queer shows should be (but I still love the classic bls for what they are as well).

Lastly, peak's endless bi-panic is the highlight for me.

This is what happens when you write about something you have no clue about and you don't even bother to get a better understanding of the subject. They wrote a makjang and went hey trans people are edgy these days right everyone is doing it so we'll add it without ever bothering looking up things like gender dysphoria or do any research on trans people whatsoever because we don't actually care about anything but catering to people who still think a 'woman' should look and act a certain way, and reinforce even more gender stereotypes while we're at it because patriarchy and gender roles don't hurt males too, right? RIGHT? ??? Look. I'm just going to say this. If you're going to add trans people to your fiction, by all means do so, but you need to do some basic research, and I honestly overlook minor misogyny and other problematic content, I don't need something PC either, I have loved and enjoyed plenty of things with problematic content because either the so-called 'problem' is slap and kiss or any non-con dub-con (or even gender roles, use of bad boys trope et al) for instance, and the show treats it like a kink, or the problematic things misogynist talk or gender roles are not being thrust in your face that frequently. I just can't watch something where EVERY OTHER DIALOG is either about someone telling her how to talk, dress, or reinforcing gender roles and she goes o sure I'll do this from now instead of setting the person straight. There was nothing 'kinky' about it, at least not for me lol and it was ALL THE TIME.

Imho a pretty good watch, the right amount of drama, love story, clusterfucks and well written

One of the more solid long dramas.
Watching the ninth episode, no idea how it may develop in the next 40 episodes however I am really into the story.
It is about a pregnancy and fake marriage that likely turns to love.
The roles are well cast, the actors all do a very solid job.
It doesn't consist out of 95% doormat smashing without repercussions, they make up a very low amount of scenes and are not over the top.
The scenes that carry the story, give comic relief and so on, are in a majority very well done.
If you liked ANY fake marriage kdrama, there is a high chance you might like this a lot.

I wanted to love this drama

The main reason why I watched this drama in the first place was because of Leo Luo (I really liked him from Love Is Sweet). I also find the story's focus on science a bit refreshing. However, after 11 episodes in, I no longer have patience to continue the drama.

One of my biggest peeve is the fact that they kept harping on how Jia Ning and Xiao Shan have lived abroad for a while as though it's a huge deal but they can't even speak a complete sentence of proper English. Especially that conversation Jia Ning had with this English professor - Jia Ning kept replying in Chinese while the professor spoke in English.

There are so many other cringe-y parts that don't even make sense, lowering down the overall quality of the story. Really, if you're bored, you'd probably be even more bored watching this drama.
