WATCH THIS DRAMA PLEASE
I am enamored by this drama! first of all, WE HAVE 4 WOMEN PLAYING THE LEAD ROLE!! This is enough as a reason to watch a drama. But on top of that, we have a wonderful story of women realising their self-worth and taking revenge on shitty men. I can't stress enough how much I enjoyed "danger of her", i think it's one of the most amazing things i've watched lately. The story is good, the character development is great, you'll genuinely end up loving and caring for all the girls. Overall it's such a well-made drama, with great pace, brilliant acting, a lot of high fashion and some side-line romance (which is quite cute).It really saddens me to see that there aren't many people that have watched this absolute gem. This needs to be known and appreciated as much as possible.
Also I'm living for Qiao Wei's fashion.

The story was good and even though the show was scripted I really appreciated how they all remained in character and did their job properly. Some of the episodes were insanely interesting, like the one of the murder of that school girl.
I honestly can't wait for S2 but I also hope that the cast will remain the same, especially since I got so affectionate to all of them. Netflix, ya doing great sis!

The Gifted is my first Thai drama, and i guess i couldn't have had a better first approach!!the whole serie is just too good and intriguing, the twists in the plot are amazing and so well done!! all the actors did an amazing job and the one playing Wave really caught my attention, he was SO GOOD!!
Beside the plot and the acting, what i actually enjoyed the most is that the serie tackled a lot of real life problems, especially regarding student's conditions and anxieties, and how messed up school systems are. Without having to go as far as talking about superpowers, the simple division based on grades / performances are extremely unfair, and although they don't happen in my country, i can name many countries that actually adopt this system.
The serie tackles other important issues like mental health as well, and it does so in a pretty graphic but also apt way. Must add trigger warning though, for everyone who are sensible towards multiple personality disorder and anxiety.
really enjoyed the ending and the music as well, SO I'M HOPING AND PRAYING FOR SEASON 2!! anyone knows when is it happening???

If anyone is pondering over watching this drama or not, you should definitely give it a try, because it's actually worth watching it. however if you are looking for a BL drama, this might or might not be what you are looking for lol: I mean, if you are looking for an actual BL where the leads confess to each other and are open about their love, then no; however, even if they are all subtle and implicit, the love the lead characters have for each other is very much real, powerful and it literally ascends ages!!! It's actually one of the purest and deepest forms of love that I have ever watched in any drama. and THIS is why you should definitely give it a try, regardless of how implicit or explicit their love is.
Lastly, I want to do a special mention to the OSTs of this drama because they are LOVE and I am literally obsessed, I listen to them and cry during my train journeys to uni :((

I am so excited to watch the other parts related to the "The light on series", I love this whole idea of a collection of mystery / thriller series, all under the same label. Heard Sysiphus will star Luhan? omg must watch!
does anyone know when the other parts will release?

The storyline was so well written, you hardly find gems like Signal in the drama world. Everything happened for a reason, and even though it seemed like they were dragging it a bit towards the end, the final result was really good. It was such an enjoyable and interesting experience, it took me a little bit to be completely invested into the characters and the plot, but once that happened there was no turning back.
I kinda binge watched this drama, something I hardly do with any tv serie, so that's already significative lol.
I have to mention that the best thing of Signal was the performance of the actors: everyone did so well, they all handled their characters with such maturity and carefulness, you really don't see such mature and experienced actors anymore.
The music was nice and with a vintage touch, really appreciated it.
So, if you like thriller, crime, corruption, serial killers and dramatic suspense, with bare minimum and well-handled romance, this is definitely the drama you were looking for. If you still don't like all that, you should still give it a try because there really isn't anything bad about it!
imo SIGNAL IS A MUST WATCH!!!

The first 2-3 episodes might seem a little forced or cringey, but as soon as the story paces up, it becomes such a treat to watch. Every single thing about the serie was wonderful: be it the story, the acting, the pace, the music. THE COUPLES!!! Truly loved all 3 of them. The chemistry between the leads and the secondary characters are drool-worthy.
To be frank, I didn't watch anything that was as compelling as this for some time now. I was getting really bored with everything but History 3:trapped revived the reputation of the drama world for me.
Really have to thank the storywriters and the producers for not making the bl couples' story too cringe or unoriginal.
Everything about history 3: trapped is so fresh and amazing, it's such a well done serie. PLEASE WATCH IT, YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!!
also i guess i'll have to check out the other seasons too now! can anyone tell me if they're equally as good as this one??

The whole cast is amazing and SO talented, all the secondary characters have done really well and tbh they are the ones that added the real flavor and made the drama so pleasant to watch!
Lee Jong Suk is pretty effortless as an actor, whatever he does looks nice and adorable. He did well in all his scenes, whether they were sad or happy or silly, there wasn't really a moment when I found his acting as artificial or fake. He also manages to capture the audience's attention but I guess we must credit the writers too, because they were the ones that made Jae Chan so appealing and lovable! But Jong Suk acted seriously well!
The one who played Woo Tak (i'm sorry idk their real names) omg he was the best. I don't understand why I'm so affected by this second-lead syndrome but he is EVERYTHING in this drama. From the way he acted to how sensible and extraordinary his character was. I really have no words. He deserves the best in the world, all I wanted was to cuddle with him and feed him all the good food that exists. Has there ever been a second-lead as amazing as him??
Suzy, aka our Nam Hong Joo. She did well, I liked her in all her scenes! She gave full justice to her character and I guess she really understood Nam Hong Joo in her essence.
The rest of the cast was really amazing, shout-out to Seung-won who's the most adorable brother ever and to Lee Yu Beom, who was such a sexy antagonist TT please don't hate me lmao. I really loved him tbh, the actor was SO amazing, like all the scenes where he was washing his hands and trying to clean himself from his bad deeds, i mean THE EMOTIONS! Lee Sang Yeob deserves a standing ovation for his performance imo.
The music was nice and soothing, some of the songs needs to be added in my playlist.
Idk what else to add, except from that this is one hell of a drama and y'all need to watch it!
peace out <3

about the actress playing yeon joo, i liked her, the acting was nice, didn't feel like she was going overboard when depicting an emotional scene. however, i just wished her character was somehow... idk... BETTER?? seriously disliked the fact that she didn't have much to do other than romance, doing emotional scenes and following what other characters told her to do... i don't want to be unnecessarily harsh though, bc i know this is how it works in the drama world lol.
all the other actors did an amazing job, especially oh seong moon and han seol!! they both played their roles with convinction!
the plot was really interesting, i personally never watched anything like this so it felt very original and well done!! i just wished the writing was better in some parts, but otherwise the whole story was pretty interesting and engaging. you don't feel like dropping the drama at all!!
the music was nice, not amazing, not bad... didn't LOVE it but didn't dislike it either, so it was average for me.
rewatch value? maybe no, because i don't watch the same thing again twice lol, and anyways you know all the twists, it wouldn't feel like the first time. but it is a good and engaging drama to watch, hence if you're hesitating, you should definitely give it a try!!
for me it's a 7/10!
