Good for watch, but think again.
Whether this is my feeling or somehow, but I think the storyline of this drama is very confusing.Many drama clips are only shown in previews and are not clearly explained, such as the death of Best who committed suicide.
To be honest, my feelings when watching this drama are quite boring and I don't feel anything that drains emotions or something interesting.
This drama is actually quite good in terms of wisdom, but for some reason the plot arrangement is very convoluted. Like for example about children who somehow their fate after the video spread and the like.
Many of the main characters such as Day, Fang, and others get very little scene and don't help in the heart of the story.
What made me even more confused was the final scene where Bast was in the hospital, not being told if he was still alive or dead.
But for the acting i think this so damn good. Actress and actors in this drama not joke, very very good at all. U can think how to act like a bastard and sexuality addicted.
And many of scene is not connect with the trailer (?), huft but i think this good if u want to watch.

I can see what they were doing but...
This is my honest opinion straight after watching this.Firstly, I think it had more potential than was portrayed, because I could see what was happening but there was a struggle in how cohesive the story was. In my opinion I tried to enjoy it but didn't. There were just so many plot holes and it felt confusing even with the "previously" parts that added parts of the story that weren't actually shown beforehand.
Whenever something started to get interesting and I would get excited for new plot twists it would just peter off and lose its value. It was sad to watch such potential fall. It was overall pretty boring.
The casting and acting was actually really good, the only redeeming factor otherwise my review would be lower. I started this show for Bright lol like most people that have watched this, everyone was really good at the roles they were portraying but THEY DIDN'T GET JUSTICE!! The character depth was bare minimum and any attempt at reviving some sort of backstory was kind of stupid. Like how in Q's childhood his dad was abusive, he just accidentally took a stuffed toy home?? seriously????? How did that lead him to abuse social media and ruin people's lives? He literally went and put camera's in people's homes!!!!
The music was bland and was just typical to plot, didn't do much and I barely noticed it.
Overall it's below average, not to bag it but I tried hard to enjoy it but yeah. As a psychological horror (I think that's a close genre to this) enthusiast I struggled. I wish they maybe took the time to make it 12 episodes long and rethink the characters and their stories. It just had so many holes in the story and little exceptions that made no sense, like when Q let the two girls go because they apologised to the family. Couldn't you have done the same for some other characters?
I don't think this is worth the 5 hour watch time. Confusing and surface level plot. I still love Bright though hahah!

A hard look on social media wrapped in 5 episodes
Surprised by the low ratings. I’m not sure if it may be because of the English subs, because I didn’t watch this with subs. The reason I think the subs may be the culprit is because many international viewers seem to be confused by the ending.This drama’s message is about the negative effects of social media and how people’s words can hurt an innocent person. The story kicks off after the suicide of a cheerful and kind girl, Best. A compromising clip of her is leaked, and social media does what they do best -- Condemn the girl in the clip they hardly know while the guy gets to brag.
Devastated by Best’s suicide, Q sets forward on a path for revenge against all the perpetrators who were involved. Because social media tormented Best, why not use social media to torment her perpetrators? Q sets up a page and one by one, offers up each perpetrator to the masses to let them vote on whose deepest secret gets exposed.
Q is quiet and is the loner type. Best is the only person to have ever reached out to him and treat him with kindness. Q has his own story that isn’t revealed until the very end. And once you find out, you’ll realize why Best’s suicide had such a huge impact on him.
The story is well done for the 5 episodes it had. The short length helps the creators focus on what needs to be told and not drag things out typical of a full length drama. The ending is probably one of the best parts of the story, because it really does come full circle from the beginning with the message it wants to tell viewers. If anything else, it should make you think about how you use social media and the words you’re about to comment.

A waste of potential
The title of my review says everything. The plot of this series is very captivating and a very good thriller could be built on this plot, but, well, it has been ruined. It might sound like I’m generalizing but why are most of the non-BL thai dramas like this? Good potential, good plot but everything is a waste.I started this series with so much expectations because 1) the plot looked interesting.
2) it had only 6 eps so I believed it wouldn’t be slow and wouldn’t have filler episodes.
But all of my expectations were trampled on. The series started and the FL character started to annoy me since her very first shot. She was bad at acting. I can’t conceal it more than that.
The ML was okay-ish. To be very honest, the only person who acted like an actor was Bright. And he had a role you could label as a cameo. The reason I didn’t give zero and instead gave 1.5 stars in acting is him and only him.
The plot was very slow, in my opinion. It would be a spoiler if I say anything more than this, so this is it.
Lastly, if you’re reading this review and you feel offended by it, well, I’m sorry? This is just what I felt while watching the series and it’s not necessary for all of us to feel the same thing while watching it.
Have a good day!

A Delicate Plot Not Handled Well
I didn’t watch the whole series, just watched where Tae and Tee appeared, basically ep 4&6. What I liked about this series is the cast. They were quite good and interesting, specially Teen of episode 4. As I said I didn’t really get to see the other episodes, the little that I’ve seen was an interesting cast and good acting.I think I see where this series is going, a social cancer with almost everyone having their own video camera and the disposition that they have the right to expose in the web since it’s their camera. Little care for the effects on the person whose privacy was destroyed. But the script just enjoyed showing the juicy expose, not much on the after-effect and how to recover from such a horrific experience. After episode 4, poor Teen wasn’t given enough space to show what happened to him. In fact his famous brother and partner was given more time (Tae and Tee). Even though TaeTee’s revenge served as a warning to the viewers, Tae and Tee directed their wrath to the wrong person.
The series has great premise but the producers, director and scriptwriters are not ready to delve deep on such a delicate plot. Thus the very low rating.
