Okay... Every review here besides mine mentiones this: 'SBfive'. I have no idea what or who it is. I just watch dramas. I took this as a youth drama (group of young actors) with a hotel industry setting. Seeing it has far more boys than girls, probably featuring BL, too.

First episode introduces us to everyone. There are some "pretty boys" that look almost korean. One boy I remember from '2 Moons'. One boy I remember from 'So Wayree' I just dropped (which is probably why I still remember him:) They all wear the hotel uniforms that look very much like school uniforms but the group doesn't look like the same class year: some boys look teenage, some in their thirties. There are 2 girls in the group, each dutifully representing one female stereotype. As for the training teachers, the head chef doesn't look mature enough. The head housekeeper DOES look like a chef, but not as someone doing labour work. The head receptionist is someone with boobs, hair and makeup, but you can tell it's a man, actually. To say all this in 1 clear sentence: From my watcher of dramas point of view - no matter the "sb5" thing (which someone explained to me in the comments) - the cast is pretty much a disaster.

We also can see the hotel reception. It doesn't look it is a 5 star hotel. Which is another letdown...

Next episodes, I haven't developed interest in any of the characters. I find some of them VERY annoying, though. An EXTREMELY adorable romance line must start SOON or I'm not sure how many more episodes I am going to withstand.

Epi 4: Nothing as such as likeable romance line and nothing as such as ANY story line has begun (instead, we watch things like one of the workers talking about ghost haunting their PREVIOUS place of work). So, I'm (not) sorry. The cast is either grossly unsuited to their roles, unattractive, or at least wearing moron haircut (their heads remind me of a giant mushrooms) so I'm afraid I won't watch any of these "stars" for 8 more episodes (thanks but no thanks).
