Very cute drama!
SPOILER ALERT ‼️This drama was actually pretty good!! I didn’t know how I would like it, but I wasn’t expecting it to be as good as it ended up being!!
Of course there were some rough parts that just didn’t make sense, like the fact the Ex and his family were in the drama the ENTIRE time. That was just idiotic, but I guess the writers needed them for comedic relief.
The best part tho was how strong the leads relationship was. They stayed together and never wavered throughout the whole thing and I seriously appreciate that. The ML fell for the FL very soon into watching and he didn’t pretend he wasn’t like every other kdrama to ever exist lol!! He knew he liked her and wasn’t gonna hide it!!
I also loved how supportive the FL’s mom was! She was amazing and supported her daughter through it all no matter the circumstances!! She’s an amazing woman that we don’t get to see often in Kdramas.
The only other thing is that Mr.Baek’s storyline with the Doctor didn’t need to be in the drama if they weren’t gonna be officially dating by the end!
He’s such a cute and sweet guy so I was genuinely cheering for him the whole time, but the fact we didn’t actually see him together with that girl in the end makes me a little sad!
With that being said, The ending was VERY abrupt in my opinion. I hate when writers do the cliche “1 year later” thing cause it whist feels lazy. Like if you’re gonna do that, at LEAST finish the final scene all the way. It happened so fast I didn’t even realize it was over till I saw my Hulu Home Screen! I was so confused and verbally said “That’s it!?” Out loud.
That’s all I’m gonna say cause I don’t wanna spoil TOO much! Maybe I’m just dramatic or spoiled from better writing lol!!
Anyways, I definitely do recommend! It’s been a minute since I’ve seen a kdrama so this was a good first pick to get me back into the kdrama world after a couple months!!

Pulau XINPUUUU OH pulau XINPUUU
Taiwan! apa kabar series bagus mu😃 udah beberapa tahun kebelakang series BAGUS dari Taiwan itu cuman bisa dihitung jari. terakhir aku ter uwow sama BL Taiwan itu See Your Love sama The On1y One. jujur yang Secret Lover itu awal awal bagus tapi makin ke ending makin agak red flag sih jadi ga aku masukin ke list top tier Taiwan BL. anywayy what im trynna say is, INI SERIES BAGUS BANGET COKKKKK SUMPAH COKKKK.Yang pertama, SINEMATOGRAFI.
karena saya sangat sensitif terhadap series kurang budget, jujur series ini udah diatas ekspektasi ku sih. karena sinematografi nya itulohh, definisi NIAT banget. sampai adegan nyemplung ke dasar laut/diving pun detail banget pengambilan gambar nya. kru nya ikut nyemplung kah? sumpah mantepp banget, mata kita dimanjakan oleh keindahan pulau XINPUUUUUU. apparently, pulau Xinpu itu pulau fiksi ges wkwkwk tapi lokasi asli nya nyata, kalau ga salah sih didekat nya Kaohsiung, jadi yang setiap kali karakter di series ini nyebutin kalau mereka mau ke "main island" itu mungkin maksud nya ke Kaohsiung kali yaa, karena kota besar metropolis dan semua utility ada disana.
Yang kedua, plot.
Jujur gweh salut karena mereka berhasil men-deliver storyline yang menurutku agak susah dicerna buat para short attention span kayak aku :'). butuh beberapa kali mencerna semua hal yang berhubungan dengan make a wish terus shuuuut tbtb bintang jatuh, butuh waktu untuk memahami konsep dibalik mengapa alternate person bisa tercipta cuma karena make a wish dipesisir lautan. Tapi itu bukan kekurangan kok, aku nya aja yg tolol bin tulil tapi jujur storyline nya menurutku baru banget sihh, kayakk- fresh gitu. ada ga sih yang udah nyiptain plot begini? kalau udah pun, mungkin itu drama straight/hetero kali yaa, soalnya denger denger sih legenda atau mitos kalau kita make a wish saat bintang jatuh itu beneran ada di kultur chinese... ntah Taiwan aja atau Mainland China mungkin ada juga ntahlah, intinya ada.
Yang Ketiga, ahh angee
Karena gweh adalah gay yang masih belum come out, of course adegan "steamy" alias NC alias adegan ngewe itu jadi favoritku. sumpah disini mantep banget ahhhhhh aku jd ikutan sangekkk. sumpah ga boong literally body nya chen haowei mantep banget anjirrrr, dadddyhh vibes gituu. gwkalo ngeliat dia pas lagi bugil tuh berasa kayak, "om, mentokin omm" rawrrrr. maklum ges gw tuh gay tapi belom ada pengalaman ngewe alias gw masih virgin alias perjaka alias perawan tapi deep down dalam diri gua aslinya gua tuh binalll bangett jadi scene NC di series ini bener bener top markotopp asoyy digeboyy mujaerrr. sumpah ngeliat badan haowei bikin sange gilaa ya ampun.
Overall mantap bangettt, gweh approvedd

This series had SO much potential...
The premise is genuinely interesting, the body-swap storyline is fun, and the cast absolutely understood the assignment. In fact, I think the strongest part of the entire series was the acting.Seriously, the way the leads completely changed their expressions, mannerisms, and body language right after the characters switched bodies was incredibly impressive. They absolutely nailed it!!!
My biggest issue is the format. I mean, six episodes with only around 10–15 minutes each was simply not enough.
The story moves so quickly that it barely has time to explore its own ideas before rushing to the next plot point. The romance, the emotional moments, the character development... everything feels compressed into a timeline that doesn't give the audience enough time to fully connect with it. And that's what frustrated me the most, because the ingredients were all there, ready to be cooked.
To be honest, I mostly felt robbed... Not because it was bad, but because I could clearly see how much better it could have been with a longer runtime.
Btw, *SPOILER ALERT* I thought secretary Ha would be endgame with the writer... him ending up body-swaping with Ji O's ex was definitely NOT in my bingo card lol.

salah satu BL korea dengan sinematografi terbaik
first of all maaf banget review saya telatt, melampaui masa tayang series ini. JUJURR saya nyesel banget kenapa ga nonton dari dulu yaww?udah dari lama aku tau salah satu main lead nya karena aku udau nonton series nya dia yg dulu, "You Make Me Dance", disitu dia akting jadi om-om suka sama anak kuliahan dan menurutku akting nya agak kurengg, tapi disini dia udah improve bangett, serasa ngikutin perkembangan skill akting beliau🤩.
Yang pertama yang harus kalian ketahui sebelum menonton series ini adalah, ini tuh background story dari side couple/pasangan ke 2 di series "Unintentional Love Story", jadi make sure kalian nonton series itu dulu sebelum series ini. Tapi tidak menutup kemungkinan sih kalau kalian mau start dari sini, karena disini basically cerita mereka masa sekolah, bagaimana si Donghee menghadapi trauma fisik dan homophobia yang secara blatant didapati oleh Ayahnya sendiri, dan bagaimana Hotae men-discover dan menerima jati diri dia kalau dia sebenarnya suka Donghee cuman dia gatau gimana cara ngungkapinnya.
Nah, di series Unintentional Love Story disitu Hotae dan Donghee sudah masuk masa dewasa, nah kemudian barulah kisah cinta mereka ter-develop di series ULS (sorry saya singkat).
kalian juga harus berwawasan detektif, karena series ini banyak kasih clue yang sebenernya jadi inti story mereka tapi tidak ditampilkan secara blak blak an, contoh; kekerasan yang dilakukan Ayah Donghee terhadap Donghee hanya karena Donghee come out/menyatakan sexuality dia ke ortu dia. JUJURRR ngena banget, aku sendiri hidup di lingkungan keluarga religious dan tentu tidak menerima jika anaknya gay (akulah si gay masih in the closet itu), nonton ini tuh berasa kayak, 'ohh ternyata begini loh bayangan jika aku come out', t'ernyata begini loh cara survive setelah didepak dari KK cuma karena suka Lanang', dll. Jadi refleksi ke diri sendiri sekaligus inspirasi untuk jadi rebel kid.
last but not least, CINEMATOGRAPHY. bruhh sumpah epik banget series ini tuhh, bener bener indah banget. berhasil men-capture keindahan hometown nya Hotae dan Donghee yang berbukit itu. Bahkan ditonton di ponsel keluaran 2024 yang tidak se-sharp kualitas layar iphone pun masih indahh.
i freakin' love this series mann, i wish it was not this shortt. kudos to the sutradara, para tim dan kru dan aktor aktor tercinta kitaa

It's MID, unfortunately.
Listen.I wanted to like it.
I enjoyed that this version of the jianghu was not immediately familiar, that I didn't recognize the sects and martial arts styles.
But in the end, it's not a good wuxia show.
Don't get me wrong - the fights are very good, pretty high above most competition.
But that's not it.
Wuxia needs to care about the jianghu and the wandering heroes - all of that in this show is used mostly as a "vibe". It's there in the background. People are constantly getting poisoned, but there's no quirks, no joy. You get a handful of pretty tame (=boring) sects involved in a political conflict/rebellion. There's no fun skills or techniques, maybe except for Ling Long's hearing. It's just swords and poison. Because it's not a fun adventure where wandering heroes solves mysteries.
This show is about how a patriotic cop used to be a vigilante and about courtly intrigues and plots.
Which (if you read any of my other reviews - you know) I hate. I hate stories about goody cops and courtly plots.
The fights are not enough, you need a cool engaging story and fun characters.
That's where this sad fart falls apart.
The story just keeps going, but there's no fun to be had, no suspense or surprises. It's not really a detective show either? The "cases" are relatively few and there's nothing much to investigate. I thought the last season of Strange Tales of Tang was bad, but this is even less interesting.
The characters are mixed, as is the acting.
To get this out of the way - yes, I think Yang Yang is a barely mediocre actor. Which isn't helped by his character being a bland limp noodle in this. He's just there, looking vapid, sorry - "stoic". He does well in the fight scenes, sure. But overall - *yaaawn*.
His whole Yaksha arc is also...nothing pretty much. Like at times they almost ask interesting questions about individual agency and personal freedoms vs. submitting to an authoritarian state. But then it's nothing, because the dastardly western Wei are involved! And we must all unite against an external enemy of GREAT CHINA!!!
(good grief)
I really liked Zhang Ruo Nan - she felt fairly natural - they allowed her to sweat a few times even, her hair was almost ruffled a bit and she gave a solid performance through the whole thing. (despite her character also not having that much to do.)
Alen Fang was also fun, his role felt slightly more wuxia-y and he did well with it.
I don't have much to say about the other cast, except Zhang Yu Xi - the hell was her plastic ass doing here?! When she had her emotional revenge, I was laughing out loud, because her fakeass face cannot actually emote. And she was stuck on that social media influencer plastic surgery permanent smile the whole time.
Oh yeah, Lenox Lu's Zhi Hua was almost an interesting character, I liked him.
To sum up:
It's just not good, dawg. In the second half I kept skipping ahead.
These very cool and goodly fight scenes should've been in a better show.

points for trying
i'll be honest, i wasn't completely sold on the series at first. for the first few episodes, copaganda completely aside because i already knew what the series was about going on so i won't be mentioning that in my review, i still found myself actively trying to push through because i kept waiting for the moment where it would get really good. it wasn't until around the second half of episode 5 through the first half of episode 7 that my rating for the series really started to climb, and i'm glad i stuck with it because those episodes ended up being the strongest part of the show for me.what i appreciated most was the central story it was trying to tell. the series played things relatively safe and never really went for any major twists or shocking reveals, but i guess it didn't necessarily need to. at its core, i viewed it as a story about someone who was repeatedly failed by the people and institutions that were supposed to protect her, and the lasting impact that a corrupt system can have on a person's life. i found that aspect of the narrative far more compelling than any attempt at shock value would have been, it's a quieter story with themes that feel grounded and relevant, but w that said, i do wish the series had dug a little bit deeper into those ideas. it touches on systemic failures and institutional corruption, but often stops short of fully examining them as larger structural issues, which made some of its commentary feel a BIT surface level at times. but! even so.. i appreciated that it raised those questions in the first place and encouraged viewers to think about them (hopefully..)
one other aspect i found really interesting, and something i wish the series had also explored more, was what seemed to be a subtle class divide between the protagonists. whether this was intentional or not, there were moments where the difference in their social positions became apparent. tarn (whose father was a working class anti capitalist) works a dangerous and demanding job as a police officer because she needs to. meanwhile, vicky, coming from a far more privileged background, casually suggests that tarn could simply ask her father for time off so they can spend more time together, while also mentioning that the job is 'dangerous for a woman'. from vicky's perspective, it's presented as a reasonable solution, something she's used to all the time, but tarn's reaction highlights how disconnected that suggestion is from her reality. i found that dynamic genuinely compelling because it briefly touches on how privilege can shape a person's understanding of the world and the options they believe are available to others. it's one of the few moments where the series hints at larger structural issues beyond its central plot, and i honestly wish it had leaned into that more, unfortunately tarn immediately apologies to vicky right after that so LOL
anyway, i do think my experience was affected by my expectations going in. the series had been praised so heavily by almost everyone i talked to, the reviews were so crazy that my expectations were probably unrealistically high. i spent a lot of the show waiting for the moment where it would just get insanely good, and that moment never really came. but this is obviously less of a criticism of the series itself, and more so a result of how much hype i personally had built up in my head beforehand. it’s a good series, but i think i would have enjoyed it more if i had gone in with fewer expectations and let everything happen naturally
my biggest criticism would probably be the pacing of the romance. i'm PERSONALLY not a huge fan of relationships that develop very quickly, and that's something i find myself struggling with in a lot of gls because most series only have around 8 episodes, and in this case, only 7, there's often pressure to establish the characters, build the plot, and get the leads together in a very short amount of time. as a result, the romantic progression between the main characters felt rushed to me at first and on the other hand, i don't think the plot itself suffered from the limited runtime as much as the romance did
and so because of that, the chemistry felt a little forced in the earlier episodes. however, as the series continued and the characters spent more time together, those interactions started to feel much more natural. by episode 6, i had completely warmed up to them as a couple and thought they were really cute and so by the end i found myself really invested really in their relationship
another issue i had was a scene in which tarn engages in sex while under the influence of drugs. regardless of the writers' intentions, i found that scene deeply uncomfortable and unnecessary. unfortunately, it's become a recurring trope across a lot of thai gls and one that i rarely think adds anything meaningful to the story
overall, i don't think the series completely lived up to the enormous expectations i had going into it, but im also not saying it disappointed me. it's a thoughtful, well acted series with a compelling central message, and while there are definitely areas where i think it could have pushed itself further, i'm glad i watched it and can absolutely understand why it resonated with so many people, and im glad it tried doing something new and tried tackling issues that deserve to be portrayed^^

such a breath of fresh air!!!! and easily one of the most compelling storylines i’ve seen in a gl in a long time.with such limited time, especially since the romance wasn’t always the central focus, the fact that you could actually feel the attraction naturally building between the leads is a testament to just how well done it was in my opinion, i found myself rooting for the main characters while being just as interested in the larger story surrounding them.
i also went in with very few expectations beyond knowing that people generally just said it was good, but by the end of the second episode, i was completely hooked. as the story continued, it started touching on heavier topics like self-harm, abuse, sexual violence, trauma, obsession, codependency, ect.., i appreciated how much darker and more ambitious it was willing to be compared to a lot of gls and that completely hooked me.
the character writing was easily one of the strongest parts of the series. one of my favorite things about consuming media is morally gray complex characters, being able to study characters and ponder on their actions is one of my favorite things to do.
even with the limited runtime, the characters felt real, coherent, three-dimensional and complex. i loved that the show didn’t flatten them into easy categories of “good” and “bad,”. there isn’t really a clear innocent party or perfect victim in the past timeline, and i liked that the writers challenged the viewer to sit with that discomfort. we're shown that kwan and korn’s relationship was deeply strained and explosive from the start, with kwan constantly overstepping boundaries (ex. the love spell which you could view as a form of r*pe), using self-harm threats when she felt moments of abandonment arise, and engaging in behavior that could be read as emotionally abusive and violating. at the same time, there are also hints that korn may have been physically violent before, leading to kwan’s eventual murder, while thamon’s role as an enabler adds another layer of moral complication (even though one could also argue it was probably done due to pressure from korn).
i also feel the need to mention the acting because all three main actresses were brilliant, but muisic as win was on another level for me. she gave such a layered, emotionally raw performance that i could feel everything win was going through, and i completely fell in love with the character. like by far she’s my favorite in the series, and i think she might have became one of my fave gl characters oat.
boon’s character was also really refreshing because she isn’t the kind of character you typically get to see in a central role in a gl, and as a queer person with a slightly similar personality, i felt really connected to her.
visually, the series was also really strong. the cinematography was beautiful, and i liked how the color grading seemed to sometimes shift depending on the emotional state of the characters.
my main gripes w the series are the cgi, the pacing, some of the logic behind the plot, and the ending.
the cgi/vfx were definitely distracting at times, and some moments that were probably meant to be scary came off unintentionally goofy instead. but i also do realize this might have been a lower-budget project, so i’m not holding it against the series too harshly.
the pacing was messy in places, though tbf this kind of story is probably impossible to execute perfectly in only eight episodes. that’s why im giving them grace. SOME scenes throughout the entire series moved too quickly without enough connectivity/ and no proper blending, but episode 8 especially felt like certain clips were stitched together without enough breathing room. a few lines of dialogue also felt clunky or confusing, but idk whether that was because of the writing or the translation itself.
and finally, the ending.
i’m still not fully sure how i feel about it. i’m not against doomed romance at all when it makes sense thematically, i usually love it actually.
but here, part of me felt like the ending leaned a little too much into shock value, or at least didn’t give me enough emotional or narrative closure to fully accept it. maybe the novel gives more context?, but based on the series alone, i was left conflicted at the end.
overall, even with the issues i had.. i completely think it's worth people’s time. it’s dark, ambitious, emotionally engaging, filled with amazing world building, and the kind of complicated characters i wish more gls were brave enough to write. this is the kind of character work i really want to see more of in gls.

really well written character
i usually hate open endings but it felt really fitting here, i don't even think whether na ends up with nine or leemhai is the point of the story (even though i will absolutely be pretending they get together anyway :D)beneath the romance, i think this is a story about na herself. for most of the four episodes you're so caught up in the love triangle that it's easy to overlook the fact that the conflict is just internal. na isn't written as the stereotypically kind or "safe" protagonist you're immediately supposed to root for. she is messy, avoidant, contradictory, sometimes rude and selfish.
her approach to her problems is very relatable and felt very human, we are very nuanced beings with very nuanced feelings. when someone experiences misfortune over and over again, regardless of the reason, it's easy to start blaming outside forces, especially when those misfortunes happen so often, but deep down, na obviously blames herself too,
which is why i think she's someone who's spent her entire life chasing happiness and external validation, she would rather change her number for a change of luck, do all these extremely ridiculous rituals in front of people and risk getting fired, or embarrassing herself, tricking others, and literally blow up her life than look at that part of herself, as confronting the possibility that the problem might come from within is too much.
the series understands that self-discovery isn't linear, and is sometimes messy. na is someone who desperately wants to be loved, is terrified of being alone, and i think that is evident in her inability to choose between nine and leemhai (also probably mixed with comphet). she spends so much of the story suppressing her emotions and struggling to process them (and probably most of her life), when everything she's been suppressing finally comes crashing down, it's the first time we see her cry as, up until then, she’s been unable to even when she really wants to and that made the moment hit so much harder.
in the end, she chooses neither of them, a decision that is the most important decision she makes in the entire series and the most important to her character.
i personally interpreted the story much more as a comphet narrative than "a bisexual woman realizes she's bisexual", but i think i've seen other people interpret it differently, and that's okay too. i personally think it’s about someone caught between the life she always believed she was supposed to want and the one she never imagined for herself but came to find out she really, really wants. self discovery can sometimes be messy and that's okay, humans experience very nuanced feelings all the time and that's something i always look for and hope to find in characters
i do wish we'd gotten a little more time with the post-timeskip version of na because i would've loved to actually watch that growth happen, but considering this is only a four-episode miniseries, i think it does an incredible job of telling a cohesive story with a clear message and emotional core.
jan and jingjing were both phenomenal, their chemistry is just so incredible to watch. jan's portrayal of na was really beautiful, idk how to explain but i think the story works so much more because its jan, i found the panic attack scenes and the final breakdown scene so so so incredibly well-acted.

I just don't know who this is for
Jesse Ren, right.But no. I'm here to tell you, this is not the drama you're looking for.
The first kiss scene is at about the 3/5ths mark, and it comes with no lead-up at all. Like none. I wondered if the part of the scene where they got to that point just got left on the cutting room floor. I actually re-watched the episode thinking I must've missed something. I didn't. The kiss itself is mundane. There's like one or two other kiss scenes besides that one, and they're really flat-feeling. Like the kissing scenes only serve the plot and that's it. It's weird. They feel lackluster and badly timed.
They do this thing where they leave off an episode on a tense, climactic moment. And the beginning of the next episode is a totally different scene. So you don't ever know what HAPPENED between the two episodes. This makes it feel really REEALLY chopped up and confusing. There is NO flow here. It's horribly horribly disjointed.
The love between the characters feels unearned. Relationships are not fleshed out. There's not a lot of emotional investment for the viewer to get behind, so you watch the whole show not totally caring what happens.
The plot is the intriguing part. But the way the story is told has no natural feel to it at all, and the eps are 10 mins long.... with many eps where there's no forward progress, just more stringing you along. So the price you pay to watch this plot idea is kind of higher than the show is actually worth.
Who was this show written for? A romance watcher? But there's no romance written into it. A kilig lover? There is ZERO kilig. A suspense or mystery lover? Why would they watch this when there's tons of GOOD mystery productions to watch? No one is going to actually have a good time here.
If you must watch "literally everything Jesse Ren has ever been in", then go ahead, it's not THAT bad. And thankfully not that long. But no one else is missing anything by skipping this one. It was lowkey terrible.

Solving the Mystery of the King’s Treasure
A botched mission forced Jeong Haesong and his team to accept an undercover mission to make up for the mishap. The objective is to retrieve a lost stash of goldbars from King Gojeong era that is believed to be hidden at Byeongmun High School by the school’s founder. Going undercover as a student in his foster sister’s class, Jeong Haesong finds himself caught in between saving his new classmate from bullies and suspicion from his homeroom temp teacher Oh Su A that could really blow his cover. Burdened by the weight of his father who went missing on a mission quite like his, Jeong found that there is much bigger scandal in Byeongmun High School that he could ever anticipated and he absolutely needed all hands on deck to stay in school.I think Seo Kangjun did a well done job portraying Jeong Haesong, a somewhat efficient agent who is also rather hotheaded had not for his foster father An Seokho who is also Team 4 team leader reigning him in. Despite the general air of the show being somewhat comedic, Seo still managed to carry out the grief-stricken scenes when needed, complete with reddened, teary eyes and convincing sobs. I especially love the Team 4 members, the team leader Oh Seokho, the tech support Park Mijeong and clownish member Ko Yeonghun, all seemingly rely a lot on Jeong Haesong’s capability as an NIS agent.
A special shoutout for Kim Shinrock for the successful portrayal of the psychopathic chairwoman of Byeongmun High School director board. She is such a crack in the head that you can’t really expect how far she could go for survival. Her laughs really remind me of a demented serial killer.
I can never understand Korean working culture of groveling to the higher ups even when youre already at retirement age. The kind of groveling they show onscreen isnt for the faint hearted too as one is expected to wait for your boss 24/7 rain or shine night or day as if they don’t have a life, constantly bowing and sucking up to him to the point of putting your pride under their soles, a literal modern slave. It’s utterly mindblowing.
There wasnt as much action as I anticipated from a spy show though. Lots of sleuthing around, and riddle-solving, definitely not enough punches, kicks or bullets flying around. The action choreography isnt much of a wowsie too. I fastforwarded many of the romance scenes. Just not feeling it with the main cast. I loved the interaction between Park Mijeong and Ko Yeonghun though, never skipped a scene. 🤣 their scenes definitely exudes more chemistry that the main couple.
All in all is okay. The plot is really straightforward although not without plotholes. Some scenes did left me dumbfounded, but I treat this like a common entertainment show that doesnt need any logic. Don’t take them seriously and you may enjoy the show.

a MUST-TO-IMPLEMENT drama
This drama isn't just entertainment—it's a straight-up callout to the education system in South Korea and honestly the rest of the world too. Every case shown feels real because stuff like this actually happens. The only fantasy here is ERPB itself. An organization that actually steps in, takes action, and gets results? Yeah, that's basically wish fulfillment at this point. Still, I really hope something like that exists someday. The cast absolutely killed it. Everyone fit their roles perfectly and kept me invested the whole time. I also love how each episode focuses on a different case, so the story never feels stretched out for no reason. And Na Hwa-jin? What a character. Dude is the definition of professionalism. Not only is he calm and patient with his team, but he somehow keeps that same composure even when confronting his fiancée's killer. That's insane character work right there.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
not feeling this show ngl :/
ngl this disappointed the hell out of me, the editing is really bad, camerawork is bad as well, and the plot is just empty and makes no sense. i tried giving this a chance especially since i enjoy shows and movies with bdsm in it but this wasn’t it srry :/i will say this tho, i do like the casting, i think they should be put in a better show than this one lmao.
i was hoping it wasn’t as bad as the reviews and score said but yall were right, its not good.
