Number Six (2018)

Don't believe what you read

When I read the reviews on this drama, I thought it wouldn't be worth watching but then it stars Lee Minhyuk and was only 8 episodes, so I thought it wouldn't take much time, so I did. Now, most reviews are about how the drama sucks but if you actually watch the movie, it was really good, the story about how misunderstandings can blind one’s way of looking at things is really nicely portrayed.
I'm sure if it hadn't ended at only 8 episodes, the holes in the plot could have been properly filled. I'd watch it again for the eye candy (makes me superficial I know but...) and the acting...
So instead of believing other people's reviews, I think you should watch for yourself....if you still don't like it, well, then we all have our own preferences ...
Happy watching!!!

How did this manage to air?

So, in description it says that this is a melodrama even though it felt like a parody on love triangles, rectangles and shapes alike. Anyways, WHAT ON EARTH DID I WATCH?!

Story itself is crap. So is acting and music . This whole drama is crap. Excuse my language, but there is no way to describe this. What the hell were they thinking when they were deciding to air this? Who on Earth is picking the actors? WHO WROTE THIS?

Anyways, back to the overall review. Story is sloppy, describes the relationship of 6 weird people (lightly said) that could be much better developed but somehow someone decided to focus on most cliche thing to write about: love and friendship relationship of superficial and immature people emphasizing most hideous preconception how men and women can never really be friends. The only thing that was lacking, no one somehow thought about is a random ahjuma shouting, kicking and throwing a seaweed at the rich boyfriend/husband as an ultimate form of an insult to someone "who has everything".

Music that spreads through all episodes is mostly a typical melodrama instrumental. It annoys the shit out my brain nerves. Still can't believe what was I watching. There was no way I could take a scene or character for serious throughout the whole drama. Literally, if they shot each other in the very end, I would be cracking and spilling out my matcha tea all over my laptop. Again, if this was meant to be a parody - I would rate this whole thing with 5 stars. However it is not and someone put this seriously under melodramatic genre.

The only drama of recent date that could top the amount of crack someone was on while writing this would be - The Last Empress. There is literally no rewatch value and there is hardly any watch value.

I started watching for Lee Minhyuk, then almost left because of the abysmal story and characters and then stayed for the incredibly georgeous cast.

Can't believe somebody wrote that script and said: Yeah! Let's make it a Web Drama. Jesus. At least the acting was pretty good but even that couldn't save the awful script.

I had to laugh out loud numerous times because of the sheer ridiculousness of the characters (which are basically 4 assholes, one semi-asshole and Minhyuk, being somewhat normal) and their actions. The twists were straight from a Saturday Night Live Sketch and so predictable it wasn't even funny.
Poor actresses and actors, who had to act that out.

SHOULD GIVE IT A TRY CUZ YOU MAY LIKE IT. DON'T LET THE NEGATIVITY GETS TO YOU

Story: I have been watching lots of k dramas for 10 years now XD This story is quite unique, and the ending is quite unexpected (at least for me). Everything may seem weird and absurd in the beginnings, but it all makes sense toward the end when the friend group gets together. I think that many people felt underwhelmed with the ending cuz neither Won Tak nor Min Joo slept with anyone in their group. However, it makes sense because it suits the personality of their characters. Min Joo's disorder is a REAL disorder. It also goes by another name called sexsomnia. It is also better for them to not have anything with each other because they are FRIENDS. I would hate it if Won Tak had had an affair with his friend's wife or fiance. The drama explained why the two girls like Won Tak at the beginning and why the two guys yearn for Min Joo near the end. It is also understandable why WT looks for MJ at the end. All of this happened due to misunderstandings, so everyone was partly at fault. I don't know why some ppl say the ending predictable. I totally did not see that coming
Acting: The acting is very good. All of the cast is amazing. It is possible that ppl don't like the story cuz it is very different fr typical k dramas, but the excellent acting is sth that one cannot deny. If anyone thinks the acting in this drama is bad, then he/she is either an extremely experienced actor/actress or a hater. TMI, I am a musical theater major (junior yr), btw.
Music: I think the music used suits the mood of the drama

I can't believe it's Huta he looks like a different person and so mature! As for the drama loved the cast loved the way it was made but I just hate when they start writing a cheating type story and nothing ever actually happens and it's all a misunderstanding wtf is the point. It's really just half-assed.

It's not properly a melodrama and not properly a romance just somewhere in between because most of these scenes were with the different couples so in the start you're made to believe there's a lot of cheating going on so it will lead to some really good twist but the twist is THAT NOTHING HAPPENED LOL wtf.

And it wasn't surprising either because really all the 'twists' the way it was done I knew they were the type to just GO THERE. Buttttt some of the scenes were downright obscene lol like a guy practically jerking off and saying those obscenities and then NOTHING AT ALL.

But regardless it was an entertaining watch with a gorgeous cast.

I only watched this for Lee Min-Hyuk, my ultimate bias in BTOB <3

Plot:
Terrible plot. Unbelievably stupid. [Warning I will be spoiling some parts of the storyline here onwards. But no spoilers in the acting and music paragraphs below :) --->]
The story is about a 6 member friend group, 3 boys 3 girls. All of the girls have a crush on the same boy in the friend group, Won Tak, and all of the boys like Min Joo. Therefore Minjoo and Won Tak have mutual feelings for each other, but they can't be together because they are poor. Which is understandable. BUT THEN the misunderstandings happen... Won Tak thinks that Min Joo slept with the other 2 boys in the friend group, and Min Joo thinks he slept with the other 2 girls. Won Tak heard noises behind closed doors, so he assumed Min Joo was sleeping with someone. Min Joo sees the other two girls clinging onto Won Tak etc. Most of the drama is just about them misunderstanding situations. Until in the last two episodes, the friends go on vacation and they point guns at each other demanding the truth, and asking why they did stuff, then finally the stupid misunderstandings are cleared. Not tryna be judgemental or anything but Min Joo is hella weird the reason the other 2 boys like her is perverted asf, they wanted lust not love. How can they still call each other "friends" after all this? The friend group and the people in it needs help.

Acting:
Lee Min-Hyuk did a great job as always. His role here is a bit different from his other dramas, he acts sad, gloomy and down in most of the scenes, so if you wanted cute smiley Lee Min-Hyuk moments then I won't recommend this. Anyways, the rest of the cast did a great job as well!

Music:
I don't think there was any OST for this drama. I wanted to hear Lee Min-Hyuk sing instead of a random song over when he plays his guitar :(

Pointless

I honestly wonder what on earth I just watched. Cast, acting and some of the OST aside, this is one of the worst storylines I've ever encountered.
Apart from Won Tak (whi is by no means faultless), every other character was totally unlikeable... selfish, arrogant, immature, greedy, heartless and/or oblivious. That's not even touching on a so-called Doctor cornering a patient into sharing extremely personal info.
Personal character attacks that were laughable, discussing third persons like they didn't have a say or weren't there and laughable dialogue. Worst of all, for me, is a virgin unsure of whether she's been raped and yet happily staying around the suspects for years. SERIOUSLY?
Then there's the shotgun.... safer than being left behind, a 'secret', yet openly carried and seemingly taken everywhere. Most cast members took a turn at wielding it as though it were a fairground prop, rather than a loaded weapon capable of blowing someone's head off. No one seemed that scared of it though, happily allowing 'friends' their turn.
What exactly this drama was trying to say, is totally beyond me. How not to behave under any circumstances, possibly.
The ending was woeful too.
Complete waste of time, even with short 15-min episodes.
