Club Friday The Series Season 8: True Love…or Confusion (2017)

This was a drama I wasn't expecting to like too much because of who I saw cast as one of the main characters...Tao. I have seen him in previous dramas and I felt like as a supporting cast character he is great but as a main I felt like he was too weak to carry the weight himself. This drama however changed my opinion on him. I felt like this role fitted him really well. He played the jerky best friend to a T and I forgot whom he was and only saw him as Tod. The chemistry between both male actors was so strong and natural. There was never a moment where I felt it was off. The story is one that I have seen before but the ending however was different. At first I thought there was another episode I needed to see and when I found out there wasn't I started to think the ending was trash but in actuality the ending was perfect with title and realistic. It left me brokenhearted a little but then I just felt almost relieved. I don't know how to explain without spoiling the ending.

Meng was a bit frustrating for me because he couldn't figure out what he wanted. He couldn't figure out if he was gay or straight and he never really tried to give himself time to or anything. He purely acted off his feelings and just...I don't spoil but some of the stuff he does was stupid but I could see someone acting like this. Tod also was frustrating for me because he is childish. Their personalities are complete opposite then throw in a possessive girlfriend and it's just a huge mess...but so entertaining. I think I hated all 3 of them at one point but loved them later on.


The message I pretty much got from this drama is that 'If you don't decide on who is most important in your life and then hold on to that (person or persons) then life itself will force you to come to a conclusion you might not like the results you get. So don't fool around too long. ' That's pretty much what I got and I think this is very important for me to remember this in my own life.

Anyways I recommend this to anyone because it has all the things you could want in a drama: romance, fighting, confusion. friendship, growing up, making tough decisions , scandalous situations and comedy. And it's short too and easy to watch again if you like it enough too. I give this an 8. The reason it doesn't get a 10 for me is because I felt like there was something missing. I am not quite sure what it is yet but I feel like a scene may have been edited out that would have helped with the last episode from feeling a little lacking and would have made the ending stronger.
