It's a fun-to-watch action film.
The film begins with Ryo and his colleague investigating a case in which a gorgeous girl mysteriously disappears, maybe as a result of some strange happenings in the city. While researching what occurred, Ryo and his partner become entangled in something deadly that could cost them their lives.There are many adaptations, so we already know ML's characteristics: he is brilliant, charming, has excellent communication skills, and, ultimately, he is proficient in martial arts. There is no doubt about Suzuki Ryotei's acting skills, his lines, facial expressions, and body language are exceptional. While Kaori, I'm not invested in her character at all because she is a little bit annoying.
I felt a little bit frustrated about the plot because it lacked some intense scenes, character development that make you blend and invest in the character's story, but after all this movie is worth watching because of its humor and relaxation.
Lastly, I thought it was a mini-series at first though.

WHAT A GREAT POTENTIAL FILM
The Plot: the way they portray an anti-hero is so well done, it made me feel sympathy and that's what ppl who have gone through many injustices should do to protect themself and their family, but disagree with it at the same time because violent is not a great choice.I'm impressed by NJH's acting in this drama, there are some moments lacking expression but in conclusion, he still makes an effort to play a complex character and makes it more charismatic. I appreciate every actor who has always tried to improve their ability in their work. Besides, other char is so interesting to watch the writer did not let any char less important although they're just side char, they have their own path and choice.
In conclusion, NJH made me look at him from a different perspective now

LIU SHI SHI THE ACTRESS THAT YOU ARE
It's been a long time since Liu Shishi did a historical drama, she did so well in martial arts to eyes acting, and she plays a charming complex character successfully. Her movements are all so elegant and clean.The plot has been so interesting, FL is my favorite character so far she's heartless and ruthless but caring at the same time, and always has a soft spot for those who care for her, moreover, the director also plays a great role to capture the beauty of FL and her martial arts, the cinematography is good enough.
In the end, this drama deserves more recognition although it's already famous in China because of Liu Shishi.

THE ACTING BETWEEN TWO LEADS MADE ME CRINGE
FL: It's so boring her char like Mary Sue characters in 2000s films, her acting is blank and I think she doesn't even understand her character, other supporting char always praise her beauty but I do not see it she's just a normal beauty girlML: he's also the worst one, how on earth that an uncle let his niece alone even when she called him after an accident, and the FL acted cute even saying oh so I need to eat alone and come home alone to make him stay with her and he did??????? MOREOVER, He even went into the girl's dressing room, to eavesdrop and want to learn about the female lead while FL's friend was in there, after that he buttoned her shirt or pants (I forgot), and this scene made me question my worldview =.=
this drama badly reflects how a man is blinded by love, and a woman uses a man for revenge on another girl.
BL: her acting is really bad in every role after One and Only, she needs to improve her acting if not she's an undeniably blank actress.
WHD: His acting is the worst, he's only good at "Love Between Fairy and Devil" That's all, his acting in every drama is so baddddddddd.
Lastly, it's got 3 points in the story because the other actors acted well in their roles and the two supporting couples were really enjoyable

The PLOT is old but the way they portray it so interesting
First of all, I didn't expect much from this kind of revenge story (I'm tired of watching it), but this drama changed my mind. With a low budget, they did so well. The character development of FL is so well-written from kind and loveable to hurtless, her acting is comfortable not so aggressive. Besides, other character acting is not annoying like in other Korean family films, ML is okay because it doesn't require much acting skills.The story is predictable but the way it is pictured still makes curious ep by ep, and especially the chemistry between FL and ML is so good. 12 episodes are good enough for this kind of series genre <<<<3

A Healthy Comforting Annoyingly CUTE LGBTQ+ SERIES
This is my second Thai gl series after GAP, I didn't have any high expectations for this because I wouldn't say I like GAP at all, which is because of the poor acting and cringing writing that gave me. But this one is something else, the acting is natural, characters' setting is all comforting and appropriate.Ongsa is just a loser lesbian who makes us easily feel related when crushing on someone so beautiful and popular. Sun is a perfect girl and always has a kind of aura that makes people feel comfortable to around with. The popular gf & loser gf is always that TROPE. Other characters are all enjoyable and charismatic.
Finished reading the novel so far, all I can say is that this web series makes the story livelier and more enjoyable because of the chemistry between the two FLs. Lastly, hoping for more good gl series/movies in the future because we all deserve that after all these years of staving.

Every existence, have its meaning.
This drama simply depicts people's lives & pain and how they overcome it, not dramatic or confusing scenes to make you curious, it is just a drama with a slowly warming color theme that gives a comforting, homely countryside life, and a loving vibe throughout every scene.Zhang Jie is a positive girl who always smiles, is talkative, thinks to other people, and comforts ppl when they are in pain although she is the one who needs it the most, deeply inside she is just a lonely, and self-deprecating because of disability. Chen Mai Dong is a funeral makeup artist with a cold personality after a harsh childhood without parental love. These two complete each other so well with their personality and circumstances.
The chemistry between the main leads is so good, the height different, and their appearance is eye-catching. Zhou Yu Tong is that girl, she's undeniably attractive and charming, the way her admired loving eyes when looking at Chen Mai Dong made me weak, even her voice is nice to hear, and her lines are quite good, ahh why is she so perfect!!!
Plus, the soundtrack is soothing and good for my therapy!
(I will edit this review after the drama ends if it gets dragged or the writing gets bad, the scores will change)

This is the woman-centered character drama I expect.
The music, the visuals, and the acting of the cast are all perfect and fascinating. Every character has their own story and shines in their role, especially, the FL she's just shining in every scene and every time she appears on the screen, her charisma is on the next level.The story focuses mainly on the career and life of the FL, she is a conductor of an orchestra, and she's a bold & straightforward person who always cruelly solves problems to achieve her purpose, and of course, a leader should do to leading a team.
Lee Young Ae is fr*aking beautiful, this is the first time I have watched her drama and the first thing that came to mind is SHE's GORGEOUS and her ACTING is incredible, there is no doubt that she's a veteran actress.

IT'S QUITE SIMILAR WITH GOBLIN 2018
But with terrible acting skills, especially SK how can his acting skills still be bland throughout a lot of dramas, gaining experiences while acting with senior actors he still cannot act. His line is the worst the way he speaks makes me so annoyed, it's so blank, it seems like he wants to act cool with his voice or something but it doesn't seem effective.KYJ is so beautiful, and she's a child actress so she has a lot of experience but her acting seems to have one color not colorful in my eyes, she's needs to choose drama with outstanding content or complex characters to prove her acting more and do not depend on this kind of meaningless romantical drama that doesn't help her acting career.
In conclusion, it's still on ep 2 so I will continue to watch it if SK improves and KYJ proves her acting more, I will rewrite this review --> sorry I dropped it, lack of patience, I'm getting enough of this kind of drama, KYJ's acting in this is not my kind of fav and SK is the WORST with his line and facial expression.

An intriguing Sci-fi & Thriller genre drama with a great potential PLOT
The drama with a fresh and unique plot-making, starts with a boom in artificially cultured meat, which endangered and reinvented the sector, pushing several firms to the edge of bankruptcy. It could be argued that BF single-handedly takes control and creates a whole new sector raising significant issues.Yoon Ja Yoo, CEO of BF, a successful businesswoman who has been gaining property and power from innovating a new product, is also dealing with some challenges, including the quality of genetically modified cultured meat and risks to life from both within and outside trying to gain control over BF. Woo Chae Woon used to serve in the army, is now discharged and has become a bodyguard for Yoon Ja Yoo with the desire to investigate the terrorist incident that happened in the past. The show begins quite slowly but after episode 2 everything suddenly becomes quite interesting and makes you curious about what will happen next.
The director created a film with excellent cinematic scenes, with a dark and melancholy tone as the main color of the film, increasing tension. The writer is amazing, the creativity in her writing is crazy, and her last drama "Stranger" is a masterpiece.
Another to get attention is the chemistry on screen between the two main leads, I just get butterflies whenever they are just sitting or even standing next to each other, the way ML protects, and cares about FL is so natural making me think he has secretly fallen in love with her, also the way FL trusting him after 2,3 of meeting him is unbelievable because she in the situation that hard to give a trust to someone even her colleagues.
Han Hyo Joo after MOVING, did it again with her masterclass acting, her micro expression acting, lines, and body language all screaming that she's one of the best and most versatile Korean actresses ever. I have had a crush on HHJ for a long time since saw her the first time in "Shining Inheritance" with LSG, she has grown so much as an actress.

Stunning cinematography with senior actors
But with a familiar plot, this kind of genre is all about protecting their kingdom, a love dilemma, and always ends up sacrificing their life to protect the world and destroy the evil army, and in the final chapter, they will be reborn or not... I've read a lot of Xian Xia novels, even this novel, also saw a lot of this kind of plot so it's made me tired because it's so predictable.The acting is quite delicate and good enough to make you blend in the chemistry between the two FL and ML, but I would love to see them in another genre than this kind of boring genre.
In the end, it is still a good-quality drama to watch compared to others that have been released this year and last year.

A Familiar Revenge Story BUT with a ML Character has split personality disorder
From Enemies to Empathy/understanding to Lovers, this story still has interesting enough, there's a lot of kdrama/cdrama similar but this one quite lacks the acting ability, and another problem is the film's camera angles and shots, why does the camera shake and waggle in many scenes make the experience very uncomfortable.The plot is quite predictable, and the chemistry is 'uhhh', it's hard to say, maybe because the acting of FL makes me so frustrated and bored. Her eyes are so bland and flat, she plays an assassin character but with naive and sleepy eyes????, also her line is so bad...
The ML's story is quite interesting to me, his acting is good and he used to be an idol before, I think he is trying hard and putting effort into this, so he can capture and embody the character so well.
In conclusion, this drama is worth watching because of ML's story.
=> I dropped this after watching ep 3, I find it hard to watch, the acting, the camera works, and the way they portray the story are all so boring to me.
