Promising start butgradually became a huge mess
When I first heard of this I was really hyped. More from KinnPorshe staff? Hell yeah, I'm in!!Ep1 promised a lot, it was great to see Mile again, and to get to know the "contestants", however, the goal of the game was pretty blurry for me to understand, tell a story, but lie, find liars, etc... It didn't really work for me but I enjoyed the episode a lot.
Later episodes started to feel cheaper and cheaper, and got more and more boring. The second section with the outdoor trials was kinda fun to watch, the guys also had fun, and a tied-up Ta Nannakun is a priceless sight as well hahaha
The last, acting section was a catastrophy. Disorganised episodes, horrible acting, it was a total mess. The last two episodes are the worst ones in my opinion. No more high stakes, the whole show bacame a plain, cheap and boring mess.
I don't recommend spending 1+ hour watching each episode. Fast forward to the actors you like or find symphathetic, so you can save 30 mins per episode...

You don't need Accounting Knowledge to enjoy this show
This is a great show! Don't be put off by the fact it's based around banks and accountants, I know nothing of those things and I enjoyed this series. Also to show greed and power, most of these situations were extreme.The hero - An awesome actor wo holds his character throughout, he certainly was the right person for the role,
MDL throws in bromance as a category, not true at all. The slight romance in the story is all M/F - and it's very, very slight.
Some of it can be a bit confusing, because there are so many different characters, but if you stick with it, it will make sense.

If you're an AKB fan, or want to get to know them, this show is totally worth it
If you're an AKB fan, or want to get to know them, this show is totally worth it. I watched only because it's AKB, I wanted to see how they were as actresses and I did get quite impressed by some of them, specially taking into account their personalities. Some of the pairings annoyed me a little to be honest, I wished Sae had more interactions with Sayaka, Yukirin and Yuko characters, her being that attached to Acchan was a little off to me.Also, Rena's character was the best, totally a show stealer!

If you wanna know before watching here are a few things left unanswered:
-Yoo Han in the hospital (after credit scene)
-Why/when Yoo Han left the lapis at Se Hyuns house
-etc.

Best TV show of the year
As a massive fan of the book I think this series definitely did it justice. While they did have to change some bits to make it more suitable for TV they didn’t take any of the essence away. I really hope they can do a season 2 with Commander Yai (but without the ridiculous moustache) and flesh out the ending a bit more.Overall the actors and writers did a great job bringing this book to life, if you haven’t read the book, I definitely recommend you read it because it gives more details, especially the second part and the ending.

Prepare yourself to cry
I came across this movie almost 10 years ago, when I was finishing high school and was feeling gloomy about my future. I decided to watch it because of one specific scene I saw on Tumblr, instantly I knew this would make me cry my eyes out and that was exactly what I needed at that point, but it also made me cheer up. The movie starts quite cheerful and it feels just like another high school love story, until all the characters personal issues starts to unfold, and it shows that everyone is living ther rainy days. However, by the end of it we realize that, despite of our decisions and actions in the past, no matter how bad they were, there's always a chance to become a better person and overcome those reiny days.By the way, Nozomi Sasaki's acting in this movie is just amazing, she swings perfectly from cute to dramatic without overdoing it.

Pls bring them back
Pls bring them back. 🙏 These actors do such a great job. There's many more seasons available to them. Please bring them back and make sure the they can grow the story. And we know that there might be some drama involved. But they love each other so much. It's great to see this kind of movie where it's less trauma. In the beginning than end, it was just a little bit of youngster angst, but in the end. We want to see more. Reminds me of my youth i missed out on due to societal impact. There is obviously more story to tell.Was this review helpful to you?

“When two souls are as one, they stay together on the Wheel.”
“When two souls are as one, they stay together on the Wheel.”This has been such a journey, with so many ups and downs, but I made it through this glorious romance, aflame with passion and longing. I got to experience something beautiful to behold:
The love story of Jom and Khun Yai, and the way they see the world.
The thoughts they share, the pieces of wisdom within their phrases, and the severity of the decisions they had to make. Their bond is so deep, I can barely put it into words.
I knew it would be heart-wrenching, yet full of warmth, because I read the novel. Every emotion portrayed throughout the drama was so raw and layered that I didn’t know where the story would take me in its final moments.
Gripping and filmed at a pace that controlled and intensified the feeling of unease, it was also one of the most romantic queer dramas I’ve ever watched. I almost forgot the outside world existed when I was watching it. I’ve never been so emotionally invested in a story as I was with this one. Furthermore, I'm sad now that it's over, but I loved every minute!
The cinematography and scenery are breathtaking. Needless to say, there is something quite alluring about Chiang Mai and its ancient beauty. An unforgettable choice of melodies underscored the poignancy of each moment.
Flawless!

Not Your Typical Fairytale
From the synopis, one would think that the movie would follow the 'Sleeping Beauty' trope. That couldn't be farther from the truth!I like how the stage is set for the characters in the beginning. Once the ball was rolling, all the characters did an amazing job in giving justice to the plot. The character development is well paced throughout the story. My ratings are short of 10 just because I don't like sad endings.
The music was excelent. It gives the movie its fairytale vibes and is a nice touch to have it as part of the narration.
Rewatch value gets a 5 since I rarely rewatch movies, even if they were amazing😅. It will depend on you.
All in all, a good watch especially if you're in a lull between dramas

bellissimo dramma!
Dramma davvero molto carino e divertente piacevole da guardare e molto coinvolgente.Si merita a pieno un bel 9.5 per la storia e per come è stata raccontata.La storia racconta del solito ricco ereditiere e di lei,una ragazza semplice e troppo gentile.Un sfortunato caso fa che finiscono per passare la notte insieme senza nemmeno rendersene conto,le cose si complicano quando scopre di essere incinta e da lì innumerevoli problemi che però pian piano li farà innamorare,poi le cose si complicano di nuovo però alla fine le un happy ending come si deve per un dramma così romantico.Non è un 10 solo per quelle parti esasperatamente esagerate della risata di lui e certi comportamenti e atteggiamenti strani,va bene sono momenti comici e divertenti ma sinceramente troppo esagerati.Comunque vale davvero la visione,ottimo dramma.

Finally the real gay community
I was so excited to see the chaos this would be. I was so proud of GMMTv for the audacity. Realistic stuff always get me, it's a love-hate thing.But let's go to the character analysis.
Everyone sucks. The only character who is an actual angel is Sand.
Mew: was descent until he became Harley Twink and turned toxic as well.
Force and Boston: both can't keep it in their pants. Except Force was willing to join monogamy at the end, but Boston couldn't, that's not who he is.
Nick: did some fucked up shit and was very colorblind when it came to red flags, but he was not a bad person at the end of the day and I'm glad he teamed up with the best person in the "group".
Ray: messed up, poor little rich kid... nah 'cause Ray fucking sucked and would make a scene out of every little thing. He definitely doesn't know how to deal with anything and that could be because he doesn't got a mom and a present dad but took him too long to even want to try to be a better person. He hurt too many people. Sand was a saint for pulling up with all that shit.
Sand: I think he is flawless, but he gave too many chances to Ray, also kinda colorblind. It went well at the end, thankfully.
Chuem: I was so happy that this actress would be gay in the show. Also was so happy that she was dating Nanon's sister. But damn, she was so annoying and had no own opinion. She would just believe anyone that came up to her and said like '"your girlfriend said "blah blah"'. She wouldn't even ask or talk about it, she would just come for the person. There was also kinda of a lack of chemistry between her and April tbh.
April: is only there to be Chuem's girlfriend, barely appears.
Yo and Plug: I wish their story had more screen time, cause they meant nothing to me (which is sad 'cause I love Jennie)
Atom: bro was filthy. I tried to understand that he was very confused and fell for the first guy he hooked up with right after he found out he likes men too, I was kinda sorry for him but he fucked up still.
We can see most characters are very well written and developed. I really liked that and the fact that everything was very real, like getting out of that romantic perfect bubble. I kinda wish the couples wouldn't end up together, because that could be like a lesson about real life: some things don't work out and that's okay. I loved that Nick and Boston didn't get together in the end, Boston tried but he was unable to be monogamous, so he should just try and stop making other people's lives miserable. Overall the drama was very nice to watch, chaos is very entertaining. Seeing our beloved actors getting out of their comfort zone and playing shitty characters was an experience.

Not likely to be remembered
Typical GMMTV fare that isn't their worst but not a classic either.I do like both Chimon for his charm and Perth for his visuals but unfortunately neither really have the charisma needed for good leads.
Whether it's true or not about them not really getting on I did see an interview they had and there was certainly no chemistry between them unlike with most other BL couples, and their kissing/NC scenes just looked awkward and unbelievable.
It was probably stronger nearer the start and I found the finale the weakest episode being very drawn out at times.

Gave it a 5 out of pity, I'm so sorry OnlyOneOf
No, like, everything is wrong. The budget? Non existing. The acting? Only Nine could do it. The story? WTF was that. The song? Absolutely terrible.First of all: the story. There were so many reasons they could come up with for a "men trauma", but they decided it was a good idea to make a flashback when the guy liked a girl but she was revealed to be a boy. And they were only kids. That's the dumbest reason for a trauma I've ever seen lol.
Nothing made sense ever in this show. Everything was very bad written and I only watched because I liked the boys. Jihoon and J were the only characters I actually liked. Eden wasn't that bad but he was kinda inconsistent, he would change all of a sudden. He made such a big deal out of the "trauma" but when he meets J again it's like nothing ever happened, he doesn't even hesitate to hug him and go out to eat. I thought would be at least shocked or idk.
No but I really wanted to like this show, they made it so hard to watch lmao
