One Time Watch

This drama was a typical lakron category showing slap/kiss, abusive ML, with a strong evil female, and lots of misunderstanding.

Well, it was a new story for me as one twin misuses the identity of the other and defames her. ML was a horrible person whether rich or poor. He was not likable even for a second, and I won't give in to the fact that he misunderstood. A person should not mistreat anyone just because they didn’t recognize him.
Also, I think the vamp was too strong for the demise that was given to her. She had a strong aura to destroy but the way she got hurt was just a joke.

Well, the acting was awesome TBH by everyone. FL Vill was awesome as twins Gandaowasee and Gandaomanee. I felt the negative and positive characters perfectly.
ML Toomtam was average maybe because I didn’t like his character. His toxicity was too much for me.

Music was forgetful
It is a drama to be rewatched.

If any1 wants to watch a typical lakron, this is one good choice in this genre. As a viewer it's good but the storyline is negative and I do not support the toxic relationship.

Avoid if you dont like indecent jokes

●When I searched bandit themed on MDL for Thai, Suparburoot Jorm Jon was the only drama. Interestingly the synopsis intrigued me and here I am writing the review after completing it.

●An over-the-top story that a bandit kidnaps women and then what happens is Stockholm syndrome IMO. But the story was well built with fantasy elements of supernatural, black magic, and ghosts along with lost family, hate to love, bandits and police fights were so well written it felt like I am in a storybook of some magical forest.
I enjoyed the epic banter of the leads, they both hated each other but came to understand how caring the other person is. I felt pity for the leads because they both were clutched in the hands of Seua Phan, who besides harvesting evil powers had only evil thoughts. He was a completely hollow person who can just go t to hell because forgiveness is not meant for some people. Also, the bad bandits who stole but also raped women are the worst, that was the most hateful thing and what could be expected from them.

●I like the main concept of drama that good wins over evil but for good to see clearly have to believe that evil powers exist. Yoga and meditation were correct, they can open great powers if humans have the will to gain them. The Seua Pha and the police officer showed that good deeds will bring you enlightenment.
The lead's funny and dark story is worth watching.

●If you like crime, thriller with supernatural mystery with a love story, give this drama a try, it deserves a chance.

●It also have lots of women abuse and some indecent jokes so If you don’t like that please avoid this drama.

Never have I ever though to see all of them together

●Where can we see a lot of stars together, the only one I could think of was AWARD shows, where they have minimal and formal interaction with each other.

●when the trailer of Youth MT was dropped, I gasped because I was still under the spell of THE SOUND OF MAGIC, I was so glad that would see those SAME ACTORS TOGETHER ONCE AGAIN.

●I have watched Itaewon Class and loved that as for love in Moonlight, it might become my next drama to watch. But I do the actors from the drama well and have seen them in different projects.

●It was so relaxing and brought millions of smiles to my face because
My favourite was of course TSOM team but I loved LIML team too, as for IC I missed Kim Dami. Every game was interesting the pranks were hilarious. The actors light conversation beside the games was nice to see, it felt like seeing some Behind the scenes footage.

●SPECIAL MENTION- Hwang In Yeop was truly hilarious, throughout the show he was so fun to see. He is effortlessly funny or saying fun strikes him. Who can forget him falling while picking up his slipper?
Kim Yoo Jung, Chae SooBin and Kwon Nara were others who were so much fun to see as girls. I couldn’t stop adoring the girls of the drama.

●Except wanting for more episodes I don’t have any complaints. But it was good that they kept it compacted and had maximum fun in a short time. BUT I STILL WANT MORE.
●Other drama variety shows only have 1 drama cast and they are all promoting drama with the interview. Also If you watch any other variety show there might be 1 or 2 favourite celebrities and skip like the rest of the cast. But YOUNG ACTORS RETREAT was a glimpse of the top actors, real self from 3hit dramas (and I hope they were not acting because the camera was rolling but were genuinely nice people.)

●I bow to the (PD) Kim Sung Yoon for bringing them together and giving such a nice show to the audience and a happy time to my favourite actors, everyone is busy and still came together for 3 days for the Retreat.

●Story- There wasn't any story but games were interesting.
●Acting/Cast- cant say if they were acting but the actors shad fun nd I had fun watching them. The comments were so fun to see like are normal people who fumble, make mistakes, get shy or scared.
●Music- the BGM was hilarious.
●Rewatch Value- it has become my go to happy show, which can be watched anytime.

Crimes talks are chilling

Watched this drama in 2022, after finishing Little women cause I am slump for Kim Go Eun and Wi ha Joon.
But unfortunately, they didn’t have any scenes together. WHJ's debut movie but he has just 5 minutes of screen presence (playing Woo Gon younger ) in the beginning and he meets Il Yeong as a little girl and KGE portrays the adult version of Il Yeong.

Nevertheless, both the characters Il Yeong and Woo Gon share a deep bond as staying as a family for a long time and help each other in saving lives.

Park Bo-gum also appears as a kind-hearted young chef, his face drops volumes of charms. He shows kindness to IL Yeong without any expectation in return.

Kim Hye Soo playing heartless Woo Hee is like a walking dead who can kill anyone anytime and has no remorse. people tend to become harsh due t circumstances but we never knew what happened to her in the past can only assume Woo Hee's past might be similar to Il Yeong

This movie shows the epitome of acting by Kim Go E+un and she does that flawlessly. As an abandoned child she learns her way to survive but her humanity is still there. She believes to return the world with what they give you. If they treat you like shit, you punch them in the face, if they treat you with goodness, help them.

The movie shows the dark side of abandoned children who are forced into begging, prostitution, drugs, organ trafficking, and other crimes.
There is no romance or comedy but has got lots of action and chilling organ trafficking talks. I was horrified by that TBH.

Watch this if you like action and crime genre of movie

Watch this during holiday season

The drama has an ensemble cast of actors who are not just visually pleasing but also great in emotional connection.

Although it has lots of stories going in the luxurious hotel the one that caught my attention was Kang ha Neul, who has failed in life and wants to give up on life but the hotel staff makes sure he is catered well and doesn't act wrongfully. It was also because almost all the staff were involved in his story.

Another one was the school story where four guys confess to one girl. This teen flirting was adorable to watch.

Han Ji Min as a hotel staff was efficient but lacks the courage to confess her childhood friend. HJM surely fits the role.
Kim Young Kwang playing her childhood friend was giving the feels of ‘On your Wedding day

The mother of the bride meets her first love in the hotel and gets to fulfill the long promise she made to him this story was really touching.

The blind date guy was finally able to approach his crush at the end of the year, were also so vibes of hope and I literally jumped to see them together.

Seo Kang Jun as a singer was cute, his story starts with his manager was heartwarming. the manager was so selfless and hardworking to him. this brotherly bonding was wow.
Lee Dong Wook is the CEO of the hotel but his role seemed the weakest, I was disappointed actually but was happy to see the happy ending for him.

Every story is a happy ending and sends in a message of new hope as the new year approaches and everyone looks forwards to the new opportunities. Although the movie is happy but was in a depressed mood and thought it could lift my mood up, but that didn’t happen. But if it might have been a holiday season it would have worked.

relatable to those who got homemade lunch box

●BENTO HARASSMENT reminds me of an Indian movie titled “The Lunch Box” which is about two strangers who bond together after it gets mis-delivered to a man, made by a wife for her husband. They both send the letter in the box.
In Bento Harassment mother crafts messages with food for her teen daughter.

●This movie is so relatable to me, and It might sound bad, but my mom just made one food for my lunchbox for almost 6years and when I reached my early teens I stopped taking lunchbox because I was bored and embarrassed to eat the same dish every day. I endured those 6hours with the breakfast I ate in the morning. My mother never asked the reason was sad though. I ain’t complaining but am super impressed how the mother in the movie cared so much for her daughter, also that single father who was a newbie at bento making was awesome.

●It was heartwarming to see a mother trying to bond with her rebellious daughter over food. And the messages of correct parenting were sent to the viewers. Do not pressurize your kid but try to talk with them, if not by mouth then with messages or any other way, when you put effort into parenting, Kids will surely feel your love and care.

●Story is comical and heartwarming simultaneously. It later becomes serious but maintains its warmth until the end.

●The acting is decent by everyone. No Complaints. I love the actress Playing the mother, the way she felt happy while making food was nice to see.

●My favorite scene is when both mom-daughter prepare the bento together.
●My favourite Bento Lunch Box was the last one, the graduation Bento.

Fantastic comedy!!! Highly Recommended

●We all have watched at least one movie/drama based on soul swapping or body swapping. so this movie has an identity swap while he suffers amnesia.

●All the fun elements happen action, romance, and comedy happens, when Choi Hyung Wook tries to do what he is good at, which is fighting and using knives in the new supposed life. This all has a great turn of events when he tries to become an actor which is even more hilarious.

●On the other side, after stealing the identity, Yoon Hye Sung Played by Lee Joon is the same as his past self. But he invites trouble without knowing the job of the person he is impersonating.

●Acting by everyone is top-notch, started it mainly because of Lee Joon and loved everyone while watching it. Yoo Hae Jin was an excellent choice to play the killer. Im Ji Yeon was really good, having a job as an emergency caregiver she had a warm heart and helped the ML in other aspects too

●I learned two things from this movie:
1>You cannot change the personality of the person. His inner self will be seen in his daily habits, that how he lives his life _ learned from Lee Joon
A2> person's outer self is not all that we see. It's highly possible that what he does for a living is different from what others see. _ learned from Yoo Hae Jin.

●my favorite scenes were the drama Choi Hyung Wook was shooting.

●Highly recommend for a dose of the comic.
If you don’t have anything to watch, then watch Luck-Key

Typical Japanese bizzare style

It is an eccentric Japanese movie that I didn’t find artistic. It was weird for me but the movie was trying to teach some lessons I guess. I didn't skip but yeah I watched many scenes in 2X

PLOT VIEW
The man is trapped in a white room is has a scene saying LEARN, which supposedly meant that he needs to find his way out of the room himself. When he finds his way out, he gets trapped in a bigger room but grey colored and a cut scene says PRACTICE. This means that whatever he learns in the white room should be used to get out of the grey room. But the man uses physical ability and climbs the wall, stepping on the switches. But here is the weird thing, every time h steps on a switch, a man in the real world is affected and does strange things.
When finally he makes his way out he gets into another room and the scene cut says FUTURE. This might mean he was ready for the real world.
The Mexican wrestler was somehow hypnotized or something happened when he went out with the NUN maybe she did some magic on him.

MY HYPOTHESIS
1>The man is trapped in the room, it is like the room represents the human body(Mexican wrestler) and the man represents the cells. whatever they do affects the body and we perform according to our cells.
2>The man might be confined as a study subject. And Scientists are doing research on him.

ACTING
It was frustrating to watch that middle-aged man trying to escape. the acting was just average.

MUSIC had some radio songs and orchestra singing which I skipped.
REWATCH absolutely NO. it didn't click me at all to rewatch again. even if I didn't understand I don't want to watch it.

RECOMMENDATION
Watch this if you want to know how the man escaped the white room. or if you like bizarre movies.
Do not watch it for some great amazing story, you will be disappointed.

who is innocent in this world ?

Innocent Witness is a wonderful movie with a beautiful message. I was overwhelmed at the end because it questions the human beings who think they are normal and every other human being with any shortcomings, diseases, or specialty is abnormal. But they forget one thing normal humans had the ability to lie and commit crimes.

The director, producer, and writer made a beautiful film and focused on the prejudice of society toward autism. Because they are always considered to be abnormal and not fit for the world.

Innocent Witness foretells that the prosecution arrested a housekeeper on the charges of murder, solely on the basis of a witness statement. The defense lawyer tries hard to get the correct information but he had his biased opinion that witnesses may have perceived the murder events wrongly because normal people also make mistakes. Maybe because he wanted to win the case but finally he realized the special skills of Kim Ji Woo and understood her statements. Becoming a man of justice and not just a winning lawyer.

Jung Woo Sung and Kim Hyang Gi nailed her character on the spot! The combined synergy between these two characters was just heart-warming and loved the pace and build-up to the solving of the case.

The only flaw for me was the prosecution part they didn’t really work hard to prove the guilty not just rely upon one witness. They should have gone to prove the motive and other basics. The writer may have left this to show the non-effort of the prosecution which contrasted with the defense attorney who gives time and effort to his cases.

typical celebrity-commoner love story

What happens when you fall in love with a Star(Celebrity), you come under the surveillance of the media and your quiet life might become chaotic. Either you continue the relationship hiding or break up to let the celebrity have his name and fame untainted.
Writers are so obsessed with sacrificing the love concept, I am leaving you for your own good and then suffer alone in the name of love. Pushing away the person you love is a really irritating premise.

Almost every star story has this typical storyline. you get to see typical banters and indifference of personality. The movie had a predictable ending and the leads have mediocre chemistry. For me, it was a waste of time.

ML, Yi Feng had good and effective acting. FL, Yang Mi was blank for me. She just didn’t have any facial expressions. If it's sad it ought to show on her face, eyes anywhere I just couldn’t find expressions on her. No offense to her fans please but sorry I didn’t like her.
Dilraba Dilmurat was the reason I watched the movie, but she had very less screen time. And being a newbie she was average.

patriarchy wont let a woman live her life peacefully, single, married or divorced

This lakron would be the mildest one I had ever watched in a lakron category and yeah there is no slap/kiss. Rather than saying it had a toxic marriage premise, I would say it had a disrespectful marriage alliance. They both had a fake marriage, and get used to each other when seeing goodness (fall in love) but until the end, hurt each other.
Also, an aspect of Patriarchal society, truly made me hate all the men in the drama. None of the male characters were likable even for a bit. they see women as some kind of object who should have a male owner. in the name of marriage. divorce or family whatever shit the writers could give. The foul four male leads made the life of Kluay difficult in every way possible. They dumped their hate, obsession, responsibility, debts, doubts, and expectations upon her at the same time. Even when she is in a fake marriage, Peemarn and Jedsada coerce her into marrying them even after clearly saying NO multiple times and not letting her breathe even for a second.
This drama doesn't show a strong woman but how men exploit women for their own selfish needs. Peemarn in his fantasy love thinks that Kluay will marry him, why would a girl marry you for no good reason? Also, he was so coward, shameless person who abandons girls if he doesn't like the situation is favorable for him.
Jedsada, a lawyer and close friend pressurizes Kluay at every chance he gets to marry him. I wanted to root for him but his love was a kind of obsession, and he was the most hated man in the drama. the drama portrays him as a selfless friend, but I saw him as the most selfish person who wants his debt of gratitude.
Kai, a brother and a boxer, was a troublemaker throughout the show with no guilt. Piing debts only to be paid by his family. His story had a lot of loops which could have been a good arc but writers just wanted to keep this character as a troubler only I guess.
Luk is big business tycoon, who knows that money could solve every problem. If you love some1 shower them with money and if you hate them control them with money. But his part was written with the least negatives and Margie's father figure gave him a good character arc. I watched it for Pong Nawat and he is so natural and believable as a bad husband.

About the Margie story, it became the main track, but when she leaves, there is an episode showing just the ceremony with some twists, but after that everyone forgets her. The writers did a terrible job at this, it was a sensitive topic and they just wiped her out of the drama.

Acting is pretty decent by everyone, you can hate the negative character.
Nune was subtle, simple, and natural. Sometimes it felt like she is stiff and expressionless but thinking twice she was portraying a poor girl who never forgot her roots and always remained calm and composed. I really liked her relationship with Margie though.
I personally liked Nattha, who had the calmest and most positive role in the drama. Pitchaya was lovely and natural. her character was too good to be true but I know people like them exist personally.

Music isn't memorable but still, I find it amazing to listen to. rather than a rewatch I would go for a new drama, but since it has the mild lakron flavor its good.

the melodius voice of PCY is everything you need

growing up watching bollywood movies, loaded with dozens of songs, lifts up the mood. when the story is happy feels like dancing to the upbeat songs and when the story is sad sometimes cry with the actors.
also, I think this movie is kind of inspired by singer MARSHMELLOW, who's haven't shown his real face and wears his trademark BOX on his head to cover his face. which has become his unique identity.
a guy aspiring to be a singer but having stage fright is not new, I have seen this so concept before but PCY voice had a hallucinating charm to pull the audience. Ji Hoon grows up and overcomes his stage fright with alcohol was somewhat unbelievable but yeah alcohol sometimes kicks in and gives a whole ocean of courage to do something one hasn't done, so it's taken.
Acting wise PCY didn't impress me where he could have shown the depth of fear struggling from his inner fears mentally which as developed into stage phobia. I had seen him showing diverse expressions but in the movie, he didn't work for me. but then the music part is a genius. when he picks up the guitar and opens his lips is like the God of music is singing himself.
You pick any song in the movie the visuals, music, and lyrics fit perfectly. and am actually a fan of Chanyeol singing more than acting so that part worked for me well.
Bad Guy (Billie Eilish) Cover really overpowers the movie's musical journey and hooks up the audience to what the next piece would be.
Break The Box is healing and motivating song for me now. for its lyrics just reminds me to do better than before nd overcome my fears.
A Sky Full of Stars (Coldplay) cover felt better than the original. this one has gone to my favorite list without a doubt.
Rewatch TBH is a NO for me since I didn't like the movie. But I enjoyed the music immensely so am just going to watch the songs over and over again.

bow for best drama of 2022

I never watch an airing drama cause I don’t have the patience, but for the first time, I went out of my way to watch EAW because of the unending spoilers everywhere.

The series is an amazing take on autism and the extinction of whales. Autism is a condition, not a disease, and I loved to few people who always considered her extraordinary. They cared for her and did friendly stuff than treat her as an outcast. The whale concept held very deep meaning and raised awareness about its extinction.

The series had an episodic case so it didn’t feel stretched. They made short, simple, meaningful, and convincing cases for the drama. The cases also focused on the main character's insecurities, vulnerability, and growth. After each episode, I felt happy like a kid and sad when it led to heartbreaks. Watching an episode is good instead of a whole drama because it doesn't have cliffhanger ends.

All actors did a daebak job in portraying their characters perfectly The characters made me hate them like Kwon Min Woo, Tae SuMi. While characters who made us fall in love, are Choi Su Yeon, Dong Geu Rami, Jung Myung Seok, Lee Jun Ho and Woo Young Woo. Park Eun bin did a magnificent job portraying an autistic person. She gestures, hand moments, eyes. Dialogue delivery everything was pitch perfect.

Because the show was based on courtroom cases more, there was significant character growth in Woo Young Woo and Jung Myung Seok, other characters had presence but were like supporting characters. And it is totally fine because the show is based on Attorney Woo she is the main character but I still wished to have more character arc of her colleague.

The romance held an important part in the drama, it showed WYW growth as an adult. The relationship with an autistic person is sure hard and the writers gave a good script. The chemistry of Park Eun Bin and Kang Tae Oh as wyw and LJH was superb. Just like the drama because such characters only exist in dramas, not in real life

BGM and OST were soothing. “Beyond my dreams” was used so much that it eventually grew on me. “The blue night of Jeju” by Park Eun Bin and “inevitable” by Suzy are other tracks that are heartwarming. The whale enlightenment music had a lovely charm.

I am rewatching this. It is heartwarming and comforting.

I am never rewatching this

Horror is my least preferable genre, but once in a while, I do jump in to see my frightening level.
Writing about the movie, it's a really simple movie reading its synopsis I thought it won't be scary but by the end, I jumped out of my chair, paused the movie, and took long breaths. Eventually, I was able to complete it but I got really scared and had goosebumps all over.

The best part about the movie is its direction and editing. They filmed it like a documentary and maintained its poise but gave glitches and blackouts giving a feel of ghost presence. The setting of an abandoned hospital full of personal items is not spine-chilling but creepy. It creeps out little by little to scare the audience to the max in the end.

The group of youngsters was almost unknown but they did an excellent job. Our elders say that some places should not be set foot on, they say it for some reasons, although science tends to deny it supernatural powers exist. The greed of these youngsters led them to participate in a horror show but they end with nothing. The ending images of the live stream were scary and the ghosts also leave the live stream empty.

music is natural, winds, talks, walks, screams nothing imaginary filed in to gloss up the movie.

my rewatch is high!!! but am never rewatching this again. because I don't like horror genre.
but if anyone like horror genre one should definitely try this movie.
