Lee Joon: The villain

Horror is the last genre I pick for entertainment, I get scared easily with all the blood and ghostly immortal creatures. It had a dark aesthetic world full of monsters and Bulgasal (Immortal Creatures) which haunts, reincarnations, and curses that runs from ancient to the present.

Bulgasal has an interesting plot, full of fantasy thrillers with the unpredictable story. The history is written pretty nicely with all the characters intertwined with each other but the present story writing is quite stretched and lacking. Every episode is interesting and has a twist but sometimes the questions that arise with the twist remain unanswered in the Plot loops and I watched the next episode expecting to find those answers.
Every scene of the drama is cinematic with the color palette and lights in perfect proportion. Every episode has flashbacks, monsters, and immortal confrontations with humans. Many of them feel having the same expression with all the makeup.

Bulgasal (Kwon Na Ra) is like a damsel in distress waiting to be rescued. She has unconventional beauty which resembles immortality. Her role matches that of a solemn, optimist, and resentful lady of the past. She does a very good job.

Well, Lee Joon villain saves the day for me. He literally is my show-stealer. His villain characterization with bold wardrobe is exemplary. I picked this drama solely for LEE JOON, for I had started admiring him for a few months after watching his extensive range of acting in My Father is Strange. He is an excellent ick for the antagonist character and for the first time I am more into villain than Leads.

music is fine with my favorite is "If You Cant Forget". I really like the intricate BGM.
I would rewatch the drama to watch of course Lee Joon.

If you are a fan of fantasy, mystery, and thriller dramas, BULGASAL is a must-watch.

Keep you phone in bag and not hand.

It's centered around the aspect that mobiles have become way too essential in our lives than imagined. UNLOCKED, is a gripping and thought-provoking movie about being overly invested in smartphones these days. While this is not the first movie to undertake the subject, it did a good job of delivering a realistic wake-up call about the dangers of social media without any sugarcoating.
A woman loses her phone on a bus and her life gets worse as it gets hacked. The plot is simple yet engaging throughout. The plot is predictable cause we see through the eyes of the hacker, about his next movie. But the ending is satisfying, I thought it would be a lot worse but thankfully not.

I loved the movie's cinematography, the camera angles, the relationships between the characters, the depth of the storyline, to the suspenseful moments that made me feel emotions as if I was the one going through it.
This movie should be watched by everyone not just for the thrill of the movie but for most important awareness of how careful you should be with your phones. Not because someone will stalk you with the phone, but because scams and fraud could happen too.

And those of you who believed it is over-exaggeration or unreal, it may be dramatized but I have seen real cases. Better safe than searching for a cure
1. My phone got hacked and lost a few bucks.
2. A girl's laptop was hacked at my university and they could see her through her camera. She later told everyone to put up a sticky note over the camera if not in use.

This drama needs a chance

●FIRST IMPRESSION
Wow!!! This drama is superb, I got this accidentally and when I was in the first episode, I got hooked to it. This drama deserves a chance.

●PLOT VIEW
Stock market has always been called a gambling house where people only lose money, But this drama through its characters helps everyone to see the other side of the stock market system.
All the characters go through anxiety, stress, and emotional drowning losing their money in many different ways but they still keep their enthusiasm and learn the basics of stock buying and earning. In other words, to say that if you open a restaurant or business some days it has good sales, you earn profit and someday it rains so no sales and, you make no money. Sometimes business is in the wrong place so the business falls. While the characters come together they learn about each other's dreams and motivate them to pursue it without any judgment. In this journey, we could see their families stress too, and its not to be ignored,its good humor.


●CHARACTERIZATON
The FL, Han JiEun playing Yoo MiSeo is very passionate about stock buying and losing all her money she learns how stressful it is, but to gain her money back she meets the group study and meets a stock investment expert. Their romance blooms slowly as the ML is going through a depression phase due to stocks.
An old man and a Kid are paired together and bond when they visit a science center.
Similarly, a widow and a carefree homeless man bond when he starts working in her restaurant.

●KNOWLEDGE I GAINED
So with its various dimension of characters, it shows that anyone can invest in stocks without any age limit, they just need to have some correct knowledge. They can also have it as a job if they are experts. Its stock investment can also be done with low capital too.

●All six characters acted so well, and you cant feel depression seeing them in depression because its supposed to be a light humor drama. The romance between Yoo Mi Seo and Seo JungWoo gives so many good vibes. Also, the other two pairs have a good friendship which is nice to see.

●APPRECIATION
There is an epilogue at the end of each episode, like a Youtube video where an expert on stock buying is giving his valuable knowledge, If any1 wants they can skip it. But for me it was fun I learned something new.

●RECOMMENDATION
Watch this if you want something light and humorous.
Please give it a try
It is really good.

Artistic but Not for everyone

●Hesitated for a long time before starting.
Reason: firstly it's slow-paced and secondly it's 2 and a half hrs long.

●Reason I started: only one YOO AH IN, I respect his works. His projects are marvelous and keep one intrigued with his marvelous acting.

●My Feelings: In spite of being slow the movie wasn’t boring. It was like a work of art. thinking about what to draw, finding the right canvas, mixing all the colors, and slowly stroking brushes to create an artistic painting. This movie is like those modern art pieces which are beautiful but not distinct. And the viewer is open to read in between the lines and creating their own theories. The plot unfolds slowly with a tense build-up, along the way with some interesting conversations and interactions. The ending is ironic in with an open ending leaving the viewers with an uneasy feeling the end which makes them want to know more.

●The movie surrounds Lee Jong Su played by YAI who wants to be a writer but is struggling in his daily life.
Ben played by Steven Yeun is rich and has a playful luxurious life. This character contrast shows the class difference as well as their personality.
Shin Hae Mi played by Jeon Jong Seo was in between them. She was a free being wanting to learn about the meaning of life. Her character was the most interesting, she had all sorts of random stories which sometimes seemed fake and sometimes artistic.

●The actors were magnificent and did an excellent job to this convey this slow-paced movie. It can be a great character study for the audience, as all three characters are mysterious yet enchanting.

●And director and cinematographer did a great job of not making this slow movie boring and instead gave it a cinematic touch.

●The dialogues of the movie are metaphorical and have deep meaning than just the sentence.
●Music is mostly natural, rain, wind, birds, car wheezing, walking, utensils, etc. The other tunes were light and not overbearing which I seemed to have missed because I was engrossed in the movie I guess.

●The Ending
1>My understanding of the ending was, that the movie ending was real and ML took revenge, simply just as the movie is trying to show.
2>My Hypothesis of the ending was, that the ending part of the novel ML was writing. Because we see him writing in a room and the camera just zooms outwards.

● This movie is not for everyone. if you like mystery or thrillers, do watch this
but if you hate open endings don't watch this it will not serve you the ending on a plate but you have to put your mind and give it a thought.

My Kdrama Superhero HEALER

If there is a better word for, excellent, exceptional, or outstanding, I would choose that to describe the drama HEALER.

●HOW I CAME TO IT
I spent like 5 years in Kdramaland but was oblivious to Ji Chang Wook,I recently came to know about him, and with the suggestions of fellow mdl’er I decided to watch Healer.

●FIRST IMPRESSION
The drama has everything - great script, amazing casts, perfect OST, and fast-paced. It's a mix of action, drama, romance, and mystery. It kept me hooked to all 20 episodes without an ounce of weariness.

●PLOT VIEW
When I started it, I thought I know the ending but the amazing twists rambled in my mind. At some moments it felt like a superhero drama. The superheroes live a normal life but also disguise themselves in their costumes and help people. In another moment the drama felt like a makjang with a birth secret. And yet another time it felt like childhood trauma, a Kdrama cliche plot. But in spite of having all this, it had remarkable entertainment.

●ACTING/CAST
Since this is my second JCW drama I had a good impression of him but let me first hype OMG!!! he shook my heart. His action and expression were like, he is made to do this character. Fangirls swooned over his hotness and gave all his dramalist but am way past there, I love good acting. I cannot imagine another actor in the role of HEALER. The duel character give a consistent growth and I got more immersed in JCW. He made his way onto my favorite actors list.
Park Min Young, I have watched her in office dramas, but here she surprised me. She played a weak lady but fearless. Even though she is struggling she still thinks to help others. JCW and PMY created phenomenal chemistry, they were not sensational but believable, subtle, and sweet.
Another character I enjoyed thoroughly was, Hacker Ajhumma, her voiceovers were amusing and most of the time she was alone working on computers. She might have acted alone like talking to someone with perfect expression is daebak.
Supporting characters Dae Young, aide girl of the healer, Choi Chi Soo, Chul Min, and Kim Moon Ho were enjoyable. Antagonist characters were also done well, otherwise, how would the protagonist look good? The baddies elder, secretary Oh, were humans who seemed fearless but had their heads shaken by the end.

●MUSIC
Whoever chose the OSTs did an excellent job. “Eternal Love” by Michael learns to rock has a soulful tune ensembled with perfect lyrics. It synced into the Healer scenes like the blood in veins.
“I’ll protect you” and the Healer theme was also mastered well.

●FAV SCENE
The snowfall kiss scene. It was so harmoniously aesthetic.

●REWATCH
It is a great drama, am surely rewatching this very soon.

●RECOMMENDATION
If anyone likes to watch excellent action and amazing acting, Healer is a must-watch.

●APPRECIATION
The action sequence was marvelous. I enjoyed each sequence without skipping. Every run, every jump, fight it was perfect. The action director did a phenomenal job.

●AFTERTHOUGHT
I will have a hard time getting over this, and If I can't find an excellent drama of this level I will be very disappointed I guess.

chemistry is amazing

●HOW I CAME TO IT
The synopsis and other reviews made me watch this.

●FIRST IMPRESSION
what did I just see?? How can she fall in love ?? yeah I said this exactly when the romance happened.

●PLOT VIEW
The synopsis is pretty much detailed glorifying the Stockholm syndrome.
I don’t want to judge because I already decided to watch this knowing its outline so no complaints. But throughout the drama, I didn’t feel any pain or happiness for any of the characters. I was watching them take revenge on one another felt like Everyone ML, Family, Friend, and Ex was selfish and tries to prove that they care for Bow. when Bow showed her feelings towards the captor, I felt a bit disappointed but then he was a good man loving his sister blindly. But no one has the right to ruin others' lives for the sake of one's own family.
Baitong Latched onto Tos like a virgin ghost. When she did the same thing, he is teaching her right and wrong. Baitong and Tos had similar personalities they wanted to gain the person they liked.
The FL father can be hated with utmost sincerity. Worst dad cursing her own daughter. He and the whole family just pushed BOW towards TOS pathetic lie, saying it's for her good, excuse me you all did that to save your ass and reputation. You don’t care about kid's happiness just selfish parents and sister. mother has some super ability fainting every time during an important moment. Pity bow for her family had such demeaning mentality. The family abandoned her like a dog. Bow should have stayed back abroad than to come back to hell family and psycho ex.
Vitnee was obsessive to Pong and he was obsessive to FL, both ruined their relationship until they realized that love doesn’t mean conquering its giving. Pong was guilty that he cheated but he was nuts person who didn't know right or wrong.
Chai and Kae were an adorable third couple in drama with a light dramatic relationship giving few moments of relief.

●ACTING/CAST
It was good by everyone. Those who played negative pretty much get hate due to their amazing portrayal of characters making them believable.
Tos and Bow were good, with their push and pull romance, sharing excellent chemistry. They look quite good with each other. Bow's wardrobe was gorgeous.
Baitong has evil eyes, evil laughter played her role well.

●MUSIC
I liked the closing track for its subtle music and its lyrics fit the drama well. Other Ost was average to me.

●REWATCH
Just the romance part of main leads.

●CRITICISM
How can one fall for the captor? It felt like a stupid concept but then knowing psychology we know this exists. But romanticizing this evilness was not good.

●RECOMMENDATION
It was a typical Thai drama involving revenge, obsession, and romance. If you like that then you can give this drama a try.

●AFTERTHOUGHT
Fighting with the world is easy but fighting with your family is extremely difficult
We can show love, but it cant b forced.
Good and bad happen according to own actions we have taken.

Mushy Romance

●HOW I CAME TO IT
I immediately started watching Khun Chai Puttipat as my expectations had risen high after finishing off part 2 Khun Chai Pawonruj. and also because of its lead actors James and Bella. So excited to watch them together. it didn’t disappoint a bit.

●STORY
Khun Chai Puttipat, the handsome and popular doctor of the country falls for the beauty pageant winner. Later he meets her as a patient, Khun Chai Pat finally learns her truth and helps her to get away from becoming a mistress.

●PLOT VIEW
This series could be summed up in one phrase knight in shining Armour saving damsel in distress. Initial episodes show the struggles of KrongKaew.But later followed how Khun chai pat who had never been in love, finds himself falling hard for her each time. Kaew, who is in need of cash for her father's treatment gets an opportunity to participate in a beauty pageant. Little did she knew that she is walking into a trap and being sold off. Before anything could happen she learns the truth and tries to run away but her needs bring her back to the stage and she becomes a winner. our handsome doctor Khun Chai Pat who falls for the girl. But his gentle heart gets shook when his eyes get interlocked with Kaew because he felt sadness in her eyes.
He goes beyond his capability to help her, eventually realizing his love. He pursues her but in a very tender fashion and all his brothers who teased him of being heartless, supported out each time. Khun Chai Ronapee and Khun Chai Rachanon help him a lot in his conquest for love but also remain witty and taunted him. His family is shocked but gives in to his passionate romance. Katesara Chinnakorn helped them big time and they both vibed happy couple since the first series, I was happy to see them as I wanted more of them.
KrongKaew is naive but becomes independent and smarter when the villain comes after. she acts rude bratty to shield herself and her values. she grows up as a character. I loved her.
Khun Marathee was a pain that any person knowing her true nature would run away from her. Tan Pinit was a womanizer, how this old man had savored his entire life as a casanova, I feel sympathy for his wife who endured so much.

●ACTING/CAST
KrongKaew (Bella) never disappoints. She melted in the character of Taew blossoming from a country girl to becoming royalty. The gowns she wore looked elegant otherwise in her simple clothes she was a normal girl doing house chores.
Khun Chai Pat (James Jirayu) was straight-faced and cold to ladies and doesn't give a damn to people with snobbish behavior. He looked hardworking in hospital, but those hospital gowns looked like sacks. The chemistry was sizzling between the leads.
Marathee (Noey) was a loud, clingy, and gold digger. She skipped work and follow Chai Pat, not a single trait of her being likable. She played her character well and made herself the best negative character.

●MUSIC
The OST is the same with the voice of male and female together. The music used piano and trumpet but with all these, it miserably fails to give any passionate or sad emotion

●REWATCH
I would rewatch the few scenes of leads rather than the whole series.

●APPRECIATION
Besides having so much drama it had gentle charm.

●FAV SCENE
Khun Chai Pat confession in the lake

●RECOMMENDATION
If you liked damsel in distress kind of stories you could watch this.

●AFTERTHOUGHT
In this series also the marital promise is not fulfilled. With only one sister remaining wanna see how things turn out for the two brothers left that is Rachanon and Ronapee.

delightful travel romance with melodrama

●FIRST IMPRESSION
I waited for quite a few days before writing this review. I was absorbing the simple yet melodramatic lakron.

●STORY
So going back to the plot the grandmother's insistence on keeping the marriage promise made by her father has taken one step ahead but this time it is more like forcing Khun Chai Pawonruj into doing it. Grandmother Oon goes beyond and finds a country girl which simply shows how much she dislikes him. Khun Ruj agrees so that his other brother gets freed from the promise, but fate takes him to Switzerland to meet his soulmate, who is also his childhood friend. After returning to Thailand the family drama takes over with their arranged partners. But the heavens bring them closer.

●PLOT VIEW
No wonder this series has more episodes(13) compared to others. it was better than the first series Khun Chai Taratorn. This series had four romances counting in the leads too, Khun Chai Ruj and Than Ying Wanrasa, Nu Ai and Khun Pakorn, Nu Auey and Khun Aun, lastly Kratin and Klao.
This series takes place in Switzerland, and I was immediately reminiscing about Bollywood movies where the leads fall in love in Switzerland. Though the backdrop was cliche it still had its mesmerizing charm. The leads both meet their loved ones and learn some ugly truth which changes the course of the trip.
The group traveling with the friends is a lifetime experience, giving you a world to discover new places and sometimes people. Whom you thought you knew but are different. This clears off old misunderstandings and truths revealed making this tour worth it. I was so excited to see how the family reacted when the whole game of lies and truth was disclosed. But the family was on another level to give anxiety and headache to audiences.
This series also touched me to the fact that they both went on to sacrifice title for their love. They each take few steps to finally understand the true meaning of love.
Kratin and Klao's story was simple but they made it enjoyable with the country magic tone in their body language.
The family of Taewaprom seems like a gold digger in a facade of marital promise. There are lots of friends teasing and troubling in the tour. Brotherly bond is so fun to watch they keep on teasing and supporting each other. They are growing on me.

●ACTING/CAST
Khun Chai Pawonruj (Pope Thanavat) performed it as if he was living the character. He is strong has excellent communication skills but is oppressed by society and lost communication with his loved ones, irony right. His dressing in suit showing the diplomat's aura, eyes had that respect tone for everyone. I got emotionally attached to him.
Than Ying Wanrasa (Mew Nittha) was ordinary, she didn’t have the depth of the character. Considering this is her first drama she had a lot to learn. She had a bland facial expression and being angry that Khun Ruj doesn't recognize her. Come on girl, Kids grow up and it is natural if one doesn't recognize them after growing up.
Kratin was awesome playing the country girl who is homesick due to personal reasons and had a hard time adjusting to the city. Her voice pitch and actions were excellent.
Grandmother Oon went beyond evil and I hated her like I wanted to get on the screen and throw her out of the script.
All the supporting characters were pleasant making the drama light comedy and sometimes melomance.

●MUSIC
The OST was the same but it had a soothing healing texture to its music. This one seems more original and keeps the prototype of the drama.

●REWATCH
I would definitely watch this drama again in the future because of how the simple story is weaved into a clever melodrama.

●APPRECIATION
The travel romance was shot beautifully and I loved how they showed the beauty of Switzerland.

●CRITICISM
Considering they made FL a violin player, it was totally fake. At least if she acted playing she should have done a good job. or at least camera angles should have been adjusted to make it look real. I had a hard time digesting this scene.

●FAV SCENE
Kratin first introduction to Taewaprom Family.

●RECOMMENDATION
If you like societal differences family drama or lots of friends together, then you could watch this drama.

●AFTERTHOUGHT
After completion of the drama, I had this one thought that how one wrong thing said could affect so many lives. And without knowing the truth people tend to make assumptions as they were unfaithful or gold diggers.
Since the marital promise has not been fulfilled, I guess the Taewaprom girls will bring more problems in the remaining series. Am going on for Khun Chai Puttipat.

delightful series.

●FIRST IMPRESSION
This supershort series can be watched in just 1hour and its full entertainment. it's breezy and very light to watch. It's one of those dramas that you can watch without thinking much and enjoy it

●PLOT VIEW
The plot is simple and cliche but executed nicely. It was about a guy Cha Do Jin, who is a lonely nerd. he gets a crush on a girl and to meet her and become acceptable, he joins the drama club named FRESHMAN. he approaches the most popular guy Seo Kyowon who is also a FRESHMAN and becomes a roommate. But ultimately the lesson is how you make friends without realization.

●ACTING/CAST
Acting is precise and From beginning to end
Cha Do-Jin (Lee Jung Ha) was able to maintain the intensity of his actions just like a robot. He felt like a robot externally who got a malfunction.
Seo Kyo Won (Hwang In Yeop) was so cool, cutesy, and fashionable even when he was lying around in his trashed apartment. He didn’t worry about anything but did what he wanted. He was adorable when he treated Cha Do Jin as a pet.
Lee Jin Ah (Moon Joo Yeon) was a crazy makjang writer. Her hair flip was cool.
Park Yu Rim (Jung Bo Min) was a good friend but her weird imagination was over the top.

●MUSIC
The BGM was lively and perfectly blended in the scenes. The cha do jins malfunction music was so funny.

●REWATCH
I had already seen it twice so yeah its rewatch is YES. I wanted it to have more episodes because I didn't have enough of this series.

●FAV SCENE
When Seo Kyo Won tries to restart Cha Do Jin

●RECOMMENDATION
anyone who likes short series with light heartwarming, and funny this one is for you then.

●AFTERTHOUGHT
When you get out of your zone and do something new you always learn something.
You just need to take a few steps there are always people who will become your friends.

if you have a heart, you will be left in tears and rage

FIRST IMPRESSION
Am SILENCED after watching this movie. I ain’t unable to explain the pain I feel which is making me think of this diseased society where no one is safe. WHY? Because the justice sides with the money and victims are SILENCED to let them live in the society.

PLOT VIEW
The first half of the movie is showing us the crime being taken place and the second half is a courtroom drama. Every moment, every scene, every dialogue, breaks the soul into a thousand pieces, mere thinking this isn't just a movie but is a real case, some disabled children actually had to go through this. The movie makes one uncomfortable with explicit scenes and its supposed to make you feel that way to get in the shoes of a spectator where you did nothing.
the movie shows also show vast discrimination happening in society poorly people are brought with money, where rich people take bribes. No interpreter for the disabled people which like humiliating them for being that way.

What makes this adult do such felony because they know the society is of respectable people who will remain silent for their reputation. The prosecutors, judges, teachers, schools, and parents will remain silent if they are bought with money. How do such people live by selling their professional integrity for few bucks? But as human beings where does our soul die and we fail to protect such kids. Not just kids but teens, grown-ups too and not just girls but boys too. If the crime is committed the perpetrator's good reputation and deeds are taken into account on the other side victims dressing, behavior is described, why such discrimination, just because they are underprivileged? There should be no less than execution as the punishment for such crimes.

ACTING/CAST
Gong Yoo never disappoints with his acting chops. He is remarkable with an average art teacher reputation, we can see how he represents all of us who wants to but fight. All the kids were no less, each expression without saying anything they just said their story to the world.
Yun Doo, Yoo Ri, and Min Soo have shown a wonderful performance. Min Soo specially sweeps you off the feet with his intense character portrayal and storyline. These child actors actually felt like a living demonstration of the horrible incident that had happened.

MUSIC
The music actually isn't there but it still has a main part in the movie. The whole movie will feel like a raw conversation.

REWATCH
This movie can be rewatched if you are good at taking disturbing issues. I will rewatch this but not now, after when I have overcome its trauma.

APPRECIATION
This movie is based on the book The Crucible by Gong Ji Young who knows if she had faced a rebound for writing this book. But glad that this novel was made into a movie that had such a huge impact to make the S.Korean government amend the laws.

With the first scene car and the child in a tunnel, the movie sets its bar high that it is not going to be an easy watch. You might have to pause at some point to take a breath and calm yourself down or maybe take time to cry out loud because tears just don’t seem to stop. And I always say take some popcorn and tissue to watch a movie, but for this movie only tissue is needed.

RECOMMENDATION
This movie is for people who can process child molesting, abuse. It also good for some law inspiration as this movie was able to shook the society. if anyone has an interest in human rights then have a watch.

Failure of the modern lawful society

●PLOT VIEWS
OK, about one hour has passed am still not sure what's happening. Han Gong Ju is transferred, her personality seems normal but gets defensive whenever anyone clicks pics, she also is learning swimming.With past and present events, all combined it is very difficult to interpret the story.
Since there are so many good reviews am still going till the end and yes it wasn’t a bad choice. This movie is shown from Han Gong Ju's eyes, what she experiences the nightmares, the past memories, the unfair society, irresponsible parents, and untrustable police.
Within the second half, it tore to pieces that how she had still been hanging in there to just live. Whatever happens, she works hard to live, even if one day she wants to end everything she wants to live, because it's not her fault.

●ACTING
I was really moved by the exceptional range and raw emotion Han Gong Ju (CHUN WOO HEE) was able to show through this role. Her vulnerable personality is portrayed like a piece of art.
Lee Eun Hee (Jung In Sun) is a kind-hearted teenager who wants to befriend this new girl. She finally is able to make friends with her. She had that good girl-of-the-class vibe in her body language.

●MUSIC/REWATCH
The lighting and darkening were the moods of the movie showing the director's artistry. The music was subtle and clear. The movie is great but it is probably not a rewatch thingy for it has the ability to put you in depression. You can't see anyone's pain.

●AFTERTHOUGHTS
After finishing the movie I read the articles about the original case and it just shakes up the soul that how this case had been handled with victims left unprotected, harassed by families of perpetrators, and abused by the police officers. These types of cases are stark examples that our society is diseased. Adult entertainment has landed everywhere with cheap internet leading to sexual crimes. Last but not least being a teenager doesn't make the crime less guilty, but the f**king law just leaves them with juvenile punishment. If they can commit an adult crime they should be punished according to the adult punishment.

● OK, the title sounded pretty amazing which I thought should give me a bang of emotion. but after completing it am actually confused about what the director and writers wanted to convey with the movie. demons covered in scars should I be sad for them or NOT?

● Bullying is a sensitive issue but this movie was more like a revenge plot by a victimized student while serving NO pity for the main characters. the film even opens up with this bangin' disco number cut with slow-mo's of Shino getting bullied while schoolgirls are dancing in the hallway & kicking shoes around. The movie plays out more like a horror thriller than a high school drama as the bullying intensifies.
 
● The movie is based on manga, the storyline seemed straightforward, but then in another aspect, it didn’t make sense, which felt like a cluttered and semi-confusing plot with many weird dialogues, maybe the subs didn’t work out for me. And then it was bad at a point that showed PTSD in an eerie way as if it was the whole cause of bullying. Everyone seemed heartless, so am in no mood for pity.

● A killer execution by the leads, the performance is marvelous, showing their cruel and gruesome side. Music is not wow but it is fine. Rewatch is no for me as I can't really really handle this movie as the bullying seems endless.

● If you want to watch a bullying movie, it is a good movie, but the ending is not worthwhile for the record. It is like do you now feel when you walked into my shoes.

●LESSON
bullying invents broken people, the victims become the victimizers, those who stand by and do nothing are as bad as the bullies themselves. In this movie whole school is a jerk even though they didn’t participate they are not spared.

only for Jackie Chen action

We all love Jackie Chen and have watched his movies since childhood but this movie is like OK am not a fan of Jackie Chen but still watching this. Yeah, it disappoints in many aspects story, special effects, and the culture.

It's the story of a Korean princess married to a Chinese king, and the general of that kingdom protects the princess. In modern-day archeologists search for a place with zero gravity. I was thinking that it's about Korean Princess married to a Chinese King but how come the remains of them are in a Temple protected by Indians, did they travel to India during the last days, so confusing. The mixture of culture is nice but being an Indian lets down the Indian culture IMO. The thing which hits hard is many Kings, archaeologists, and researchers who traveled to India had only come to loot the country which clearly shows in the movie.
The story keeps on jumping between past and present which sometimes confuses the audience.

The modern-day fight sequence was usual Jackie Chen vintage style but the historic stuff had cheesy swordplay.

In acting Jackie Chen never lets down, while Kim Hee-sun, beauty, her smile, her suffering, frustration, long patience everything is so vivid that it is really enjoyable to watch. Mallika Sherawat seems very attractive in her natural looks and her action was goofy.

By the way, the soundtracks match very well with the movie, the theme song "Endless Love" sung by Jackie and Kim is melodious and I updated my playlist with this song.

Rewatch is a NO for me as I would like to watch more of Jackie Chen's movie, but if anyone wants they can watch.

that failed mission was a walk in the park

●this writer is something, he keeps on repeating the same plot but with a different character. if i get to rename this movie, it would be CURSED GIRL, coz there are so many guys falling for her and then die for various reasons.

●the movie opens up with Ruan qing tian dragged back by Ren hao ming to his mansion. he tries to keep her confined as he senses some danger. he takes up a mission which gets ruined as ruan qing tian comes in to help out. she eventually becomes a baggage and jiang chen loses his life saving her. they both are suspended for failing a mission. qing tian is upset over jiang chen loss. she goes back to attend her college but Hao ming uses his connection for the disqualification. later hao ming decides to sell off the art academy for which a buyer named HaoYu comes up. HaoYu also approaches qing tian saying he knows her father whereabouts and will tell her only if she marries him. she reluctantly agrees, later Haoming comes to rescue and she gets clear picture that she was being fooled. later at college HaoYu comes beside qingtian and dies.... voila cliffhanger ending.

●the acting is very bad by FL. her only work is to be an eye candy acting cute all the time. yeah she looks cute while getting angry, while forceful kissing and while crying. there is just one expression for her and that is cute. I gave low ratings for acting because of her. she has a failed mission but she wants to argue with her superior over the suspension. what kind of an attitude is that. if you go for a mission you need to have some guts and guns not going around like walking in park. she cant save herself but wants to be a special agent. funny thing where does this bullets comes flying to kill the characters are still unknown..

●so there is one last movie PERFECT MATCH: EVIL SCHEME
I hope thats the last movie, coz there are no more in the Iqiyi APP.

●who the hell thought this title for movie, was he blind or what. from which angle this movie has hot girl, she is pretty but dumb, stupid and petulant.

●Story is all over the place and when a single thing gets repeated its tiresome. I mean how many times will the FL get kidnapped. even if ML gets her a bodyguard, writer somehow will get her kidnaped.
As for ML he is billionaire and also some kind of special agent but he doesnt look like either of the one. For a billionaire feature he totally loses on the closet section and for agent part he loses in the action skills. his expressions are bland.
who the hell thought this title for movie, was he blind or what. from which angle this movie has hot girl, she is pretty but dumb, stupid and petulant.

●Production and music quality haven’t improved a bit.
●No rewatch no recommendation.

●Next part is titled PERFECT MATCH: AGENT AND BEAUTY.
