Plot is good. But story direction? Bad. Confusing and scattered
Home School" starts off pretty cool, with this mysterious boarding school vibe and a bunch of interesting characters. You get hooked trying to figure out what's up with Maki searching for her lost brother. The whole thing with the masters adds a good dose of suspense too.But, gotta be real, the ending kind of drops the ball. It's like the writers lost their way or something. Leaves you feeling a bit unsatisfied, like they could've done better.
Still, it's not all bad. The characters keep things interesting, and you're always curious about what's gonna happen next. It's a bit of an emotional rollercoaster – some parts are good, some are meh. Overall, it's okay, but you might wish they wrapped it up better.

Plot Twists and Plot Armor
The second season of The Penthouse undeniably lived up to expectations, maintaining consistency in its essence. The mysteries persist, keeping us on our toes with unexpected twists and turns. This season offered a bit of everything—suspense, drama, and surprises. I found myself on the edge of my seat, particularly concerned about the fate of my favorite character. Miraculously, she was granted plot armor, surviving a stab in the head—an occurrence few could endure.What stands out in this season is the collaboration against a common enemy. Although alliances crumbled towards the end, with betrayals aplenty, it added a layer of complexity to the narrative. Understanding the irredeemable nature of Cheon Seo Jin's character, the betrayals seemed almost inevitable. Now, I am eagerly anticipating the third season, eager to see how the story unfolds further.

Murder, Mothers, and Teen Romance
This drama series caters to those who enjoy intricate storylines, and I can assure you that it's absolutely worth your time. The mysterious death of a student adds a captivating layer to the narrative, but what sets it apart is the compelling story of the three mothers. Each embodies distinct life perspectives—one yearns for a perfect family, another seeks what's best for her child, and the third desires everything, even if it's not rightfully hers. The series delves deep into the lives of these three mothers, exploring the lengths to which a parent would go for their children.Let me be candid—I'm a teenager, and naturally, my interest tends to gravitate towards the romantic aspects of the students. What hooked me was the love story between Bae Ro Na and Joo Seok Hoon. It's a classic tale of the popular boy meeting the bullied girl, but it takes a darker turn as these students are entangled in a murder. Overall, it's a genuinely, and I mean very, compelling drama. I'm excited to share that there are two more seasons on the horizon.

Binge-Worthy Bliss!
I initially started watching this drama because I was familiar with the male lead from another series, and I was curious. However, as I progressed through each episode, I found myself completely hooked and ended up binge-watching it. The story exceeded my expectations, and the chemistry between the two leads was palpable. The development of both the main and secondary couples' stories was well-crafted.What I appreciated the most was how each character's conflicting behaviors at the beginning transformed into a beautiful expression of love throughout the series. The character development was skillfully demonstrated, and all the actors did an excellent job. However, what stood out to me the most were the crying scenes of the first female lead, especially after her twin sister's death. The emotions felt so genuine that I found myself wanting to cry along with her. This drama stands out for me, as it's the first time I've loved both twin leads in a series.

Well-Written Characters, But When's the Sequel?!
Though I watched this drama quite some time ago, I've found myself rewatching it repeatedly, seeking the stress-free escape it provides from the typical damsel-in-distress female leads. This drama stands out as top-notch, with well-written characters, including the intriguing evil princes. However, the one aspect that left me hanging was the open ending. I can't help but wonder when they'll finally drop the second season. And, okay, call me sentimental, but I secretly wish the male lead would make a triumphant return – a resurrection wouldn't hurt, right?Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

The Enraging Conclusion of Duty after school Part 2
I never thought I would find myself writing a review, but I just have to get this off my chest – the ending was absolutely infuriating! After witnessing the promising character development of each individual, it felt like a complete betrayal to have them all meet their demise at the hands of a psycho obsessed with CSAT. Part 1 started off so well; I'm left wondering why the writers decided to take such a dark turn. In the novel, I heard that many students survived, yet in the series, only four managed to make it out alive. While I'm relieved that my two favorite characters survived, it was completely unexpected and left me with mixed emotions. Despite my frustration with the ending, I must admit it was still a good watch overall.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

How I Found Unexpected Delight in Alien Apocalypse
I thoroughly enjoyed the series! Despite not typically being a fan of alien invasion themes, I was drawn to it because of its resemblance to 'All of Us Are Dead,' and I didn't regret my decision. The execution of the storyline was impressive, and even though the main characters are students, their disorientation added to the entertainment value. My favorite character has to be 'Na RA'—she's like the Namra version in 'All of Us Are Dead': cool, mysterious, and incredibly capable, perhaps even more so than the boys. I appreciate the chemistry between Kimchi and her, although I understand it's not the main focus of the story. I hope they don't meet a tragic end. Given the apocalyptic alien theme, deaths are inevitable, and I was genuinely shocked when our team leader died in the ending. Overall, it was a fantastic series, and I'm hoping that Part 2 will deliver the same level of excitement!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Unexpectedly Engaging
This series, while lacking the extravagant effects and cinematography found in some premier dramas, has carved out a distinct place in my appreciation. Initial expectations were modest, but the narrative quickly proved engrossing. The character dynamics, marked by diverse behaviors and beliefs, contribute significantly to the show's appeal.The male lead, initially portrayed as naive and easily swayed by the leader of a sect, undergoes substantial character development following the dismemberment of his body. While his subsequent actions can be frustrating, they align with the evolving storyline. Notably, a scene depicting his stabbing of the female lead, despite prior instances, offers a nuanced portrayal.
The female lead emerges as a standout character, reflecting relatable responses to challenging situations. Her character evolution is commendable. The on-screen chemistry among the cast is palpable. Noteworthy is the captivating performance of the female lead actress, particularly in her poignant crying scenes, which I find mesmerizing. Despite my limited knowledge of her previous works, I must express a preference for her acting prowess over that of the male lead.

Who Rules the World: A Journey of Love and Power"
Introduction:"Who Rules the World" unfolds as a decent series, immersing viewers in a plot revolving around Bai Feng Xi and Hei Feng Xi, two formidable martial arts fighters concealing their true identities as royalty. Their journey from foes to lovers, characterized by mutual understanding and support, offers a refreshing take on relationships with equal strength and status for the main leads.
Plot and Pacing:
The plot delves into the complexities of Bai Feng Xi and Hei Feng Xi's identities, crafting a narrative that balances martial arts prowess with a romantic subplot. The pacing of the series is decent, maintaining engagement throughout.
Conclusion and Anticlimax:
However, the conclusion feels somewhat anticlimactic, particularly in how they defeat the main villain. Numerous unexplored aspects leave viewers wanting more, making it evident that some elements could have been further developed.
Gender Dynamics and Character Exploration:
The series leans towards a male-centric focus, predominantly unfolding in the male lead's kingdom. Unfortunately, the female lead's arc is relatively short, leaving her story insufficiently explored, a source of frustration for the audience. Bai Feng Xi emerges as a well-defined character with a cool temperament and exceptional skills, her other identity, Feng Xi Yun, revealing the poignant responsibility she must shoulder after her family's demise. Hei Feng Xi, a reserved man with a romantic side, brings depth to the narrative with his dual identity as the Prince of Yong Zhou.
Acting and Music:
Zhao Lu Si's remarkable performance, especially in emotional scenes, stands out, while Yang Yang's acting, though decent, may come across as slightly stiff. The series benefits from a well-curated music playlist, enhancing the overall viewing experience.
Conclusion:
"Who Rules the World" provides an intriguing blend of fantasy, romance, and martial arts. While it excels in character dynamics and offers a unique take on power and love, it leaves room for improvement in terms of conclusion and gender balance.

A Love Letter to Jang Man Wol's Badassery
I shamelessly dove into this series because of IU – a loyal fan here! Little did I know I was signing up for a rollercoaster of awesomeness, with IU's character, Jang Man Wol, leading the pack as the ultimate 'I should look pretty even if I go broke!' queen. It's like IU went from sweet to 'Hello, I'm here to slay, darling!' for the first time, and boy, did she own it!Jang Man Wol isn't just a character; she's a whole mood, a fierce fashion icon with an attitude to match. I've lost count of the times I've rewatched this show – blame it on Jang Man Wol's charisma and those killer outfits. Seriously, she's got me thinking, 'Can I look this good while conquering life's chaos?'
IU, take a bow! This series isn't just a fan's binge; it's a witty testament to IU's acting chops and the sassy brilliance of Jang Man Wol's character. So, excuse me while I go rewatch for the umpteenth time – because why settle for anything less than badass and beautiful?

Decently done!
This is my second time watching Park Shin Hye portray a doctor. The plot is actually quite good, and as someone in the medical field myself, I can understand some of the details in the series. The story follows Dr. Yoo Hye Jung, a tough and rebellious high school bully with a prickly personality. Due to her traumatic childhood, Hye Jung keeps her emotions locked away from others. Her character has great development, and after her grandmother's death, she decides to become a doctor, determined to investigate what went wrong with her grandmother’s surgery. This is one of the reasons she transferred hospitals. In terms of character writing, she stands out.As for the romance, I think it could have worked, but not with the male lead, Professor Hong Ji Hong. I’ve watched a lot of series with significant age gaps, and while the age difference between them didn’t bother me, their chemistry did. It felt off, and I couldn't fully root for them. Part of the issue might be the writing; it was a bit unsettling at first. Teenage Hye Jung didn’t fall for her professor until she was an adult, but it seemed like the professor had feelings for her even when she was a teenager. Despite their relationship starting in adulthood, it was hard for me to support it knowing he was her former teacher.
I wasn't a fan of the professor's character either. Although the actor is talented and a veteran, his character felt stiff and uninteresting to me. On the other hand, Hye Jung had much better chemistry with her best friend Ji Soo or even the mafia guy she treated in the first episode.
Overall, I managed to finish the series, though it was painful at times, and I skipped quite a bit in the second half. While I might rewatch a few good scenes, I wouldn’t sit through the entire series again. The music, however, was quite soothing.
