Good medical drama for doctor that forget what he need to do except money.

The drama story is very good for medical drama. It's have many research about medical.i like lou yunxi and zhang ruonan chemistry. How zhang ruonan inteprate her character as chinese women who fall in love have a shy whenever kiss scene happen. The love story overall good but not too much . In medical view it's good many time writer and director many times make reminder for doctor that forget what the doing because of money with hippocratic oath. Because i see many doctor forget about that too. It give a few different insight too about parenting not always father or mother true. But we have bad father too. In research about new drug the gave a lottle explanation that good too for people not know about drug know how difficult too make a new drug.. rewatch story for me is in middle because not many very touching story,romantic,or not too medical too.It's more about how huttington disease patient fight for the disease and good doctor, bad doctor and bad drug factory.
The bad thing:
1 in medical they doing cardiac shickin true way. But the ecg is false it's need to 0 first before come to normal because it's the effect of pacemarker, and they drill patient head it's true but it need on proper place don't in middle road, have good research about medical but not enough.
2 the love story touching but not too romantic because too many story that not too important add in there.
3 The second women and men story too few .the antagonist reason for become bad people logic is nonsense too.
4 the ending not tensed and sad ending. The tensed feeling and romantic feeling sometimes too shallow. When the men love the women it's not too clear how he love her. It's just make because only small contact and good way of meeting her. He fall in love with her. Need a few fixed.
5 parent. It's make the mother and farher is too bad person. But have a new way to tell not all parent perfect and they need people make judgment too.
Good thing:
1 in medical it give people know more about what docter need to do. Like drill the head when herniasi brain happen, Doing shock in approite time not in 0 heart rate people, process of research new drug is good way.
2 in love story their chemistry good and how the actress acting in very traditional way shy when kiss it's very good detail need to add because now many chinese film too open like west people.
3 in drug research it's good they tell we need a step from animal, people in small number and big number people all need to do.
4 for the parenting new way of thinking about not all parent is right.but not too wise too because chinese is cultural country about respect parent and teacher.
5 this film can watch till end but for me not too good to rewatch

Rewatch worthy!

If you haven't seen this yet, watch it now! Im obsessed! It is so incredibly well done. Every single episode ends beautifully and the actual ending is perfect. I wouldnt change a thing. Its romantic, heart-warming, emotional, and has some of my favorite intimate scenes out of any BL. It also has really great conflict and even better resolve. It definitely gives off a more indie vibe which I love. Its a BL you will keep coming back to for sure.

To get more in depth, here are some spoilers......

One of the main reasons im obsesssd with this series is due to the Actors ability to create such chemistry and emotion while doing seemigly mundane things. For example : Kim Ji Hyun bringing Seo Jae Won two cigerettes instead of just one or him handing him a ligther as he starts to walk away. Something so simple held so much emotion that it pulls you in. This happens many times throughout the series and you just can't stop watching it.
My obsession may also be due to the characters and the way the writers help you get to know them. There are no unnecessary fillers or introductions that take up whole episodes.They dive right into the story and you learn exactly what you need to in the perfect way. It's hard to explain but you'll see what I mean when you watch it.

Both the main characters have their own charms that will make you fall in love with them. Their Chemistry is also so pure that you can't help but root for them.

Their is multiple points of conflict but the resolve is sooooo worth it. The scene where they come back together after being apart is seriously my favorite.

just go watch it. seriously

This is a great comedy drama! Worth rewatching!

I watched this when it came it first came out but never wrote a review about it as I was busy at the time, but as I have recently watched it again I can safely say this is one great comedy drama that is worth rewatching!

I usually don’t like watching martial art period dramas, but this one is obviously a parody of those kinds of dramas and somehow manages to make it hilarious in the process. For you to really enjoy it, you’d need to understand all the meta references it throws at you, and laugh at the old spins on modern technology such as paper scrolling lyrics on their take of a karaoke machine. There are also so many great Cantonese puns that you would miss out on if you do not understand the language. Whoever came up with 首振鎮個鎮守 was a genius, I always smile whenever it gets mentioned. This drama just kept throwing them at you that it was a non-stop laugh fest when you’re watching it and you get it.

This is also one of the rare dramas where I did not dislike anybody in it. Even Jeannie Chan, who was awful in The Beauty of War, was pretty funny and likeable as the aggressive and amnesiac Princess, who was constantly shouting at her fiancé, Kalok Chow. By far the best part of the drama was watching the 3 amigos Kalok Chow, Brian Chu and Jonathan Cheung interacting and just being really stupid. I liked them all individually with Kalok’s weak body but fast talking style, Brian’s terrible aptitude for martial arts that causes him to develop a mental condition, and Jonathan as the really stupid but massively hilarious idiot of the three who spouts some real nonsense. When the three of them are onscreen at the same time, you can guarantee there would be some pure TV comedy gold.

What are you waiting for? Go watch it! Hopefully the sequel/prequel comes out for it soon because I am hyped!

Longing for college BL

There is a shift going on in BL. It has been for a while now and I'm not sure it's a good one. Apparently BL creators are under the impression that we're just here for the NC scenes. And while I really enjoy some heavy petting now and then, it has absolutely no value without context. First and foremost, I for one need to FEEL something between a couple. Call it chemistry, fluttering, love. In this case, there was a lot of that in the beginning, but none at all later on. I could have been watching p*rn, for that matter, there would not have been much difference. In some scenes I even think I saw the actors themselves couldn't keep a straight face, especially Bomb and Janus.
This illustrates that this series doesn't really know what it wants to be. A drama, a fluffy lovestory, a comedy or an erotic piece? Who knows. The repeating scenes and sentences are annoying, the side couples are left unfinished as is to some extent the main couple. Leaving in the NC scenes, this needs better acting and better writing to be actually good. If this is really the direction BL is taking, by sacrificing all to the holy NC, I would petition to bring back the high school and college BL hype. Just so you know: I kinda hate those.

Worst ending of a good start......

TO THOSE WHO GIVE HIGH RATING BLINDLY AND TRY TO BULLY ME FOR MY HONEST REVIEW I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS ENDING

What a beautiful start and then
Arrogant ceo and poor woman shit started...its okay rom-com

ML -- i enjoy his acting in first episode and i think it was his limit he can only act good in one episode...

they show two people falling in love then one died but other did not even mourn him but fall for other man because he look like her dead husband
INHUMAN SHAMLESS WOMAN
Our FL said she will mourn for husband for 3 years but she did not wait even for 3 days before she kiss another man.
JEOSON WOMAN BECOMES MORDERN IN JUST ONE DAY

now just because they look similar she must love him
HER DYING HUSBAND DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT HIS WIFE FIND NEW MAN RIGHT AFTER HE DIED
SHE DID NOT LOVE HER HUSBAND BUT RICH MAN BECAUSE MONEY-MONEY

(( One thing that is correct about this whole setup is that his grandfather really look like a king of hell. ))

Great ending this woman throw away her dying husband give him cold shoulder until the last moment and want go to jerk for his micro penis and isn't feeling slightly GUILTY for her affair with a man who is Few hundred year younger then her...

Poor husband died not even knowing anything
And this MF ML is nothing but a arrogant jerk.

What is LOVE for FL ?
I WANT TO KNOW WHAT LOVE EVEN MEAN FOR THAT SHAMLESS HORE.

A waste of time, honestly

This show gave me nothing. I had low expectations since I loved the first version, Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, but this one was even lower than my expectations. I didn't care about the characters, most of the were SO annoying and I couldn't get past it. I liked the grandmas storyline and that was about it.
The drug plot was confused and weird and I found I got bored half way through and couldn't focus on what was happening.
The romance was boring and rushed at the same time. I didn't feel like the main leads connected at all and then suddenly they were getting married. It felt like they forced a romance plotline in to get the views but they didn't really want it in there.
The ending wasn't really satisfying for me. Nothing was fully wrapped up (possibly they want to follow the new trend of adding more seasons) but it's not worth a second season.

When the story is bad and the acting is worse... drop it!

I started watching this drama but couldn't find a title. Several episodes in, I managed to seek it out on You Tube and read the reviews. There wasn't a positive on in the bunch, and I can honestly see why. At that point, I bailed.

The storyline was weak and ridiculous. The acting was poor - especially the FL. Her facial expressions made her look like a clown most times, and just plain clueless the rest of the time. She had less than zero chemistry with the ML, and pretty much no chemistry with any of the supporting players either. I wasn't impressed with the ML either, but at least his character was believable, and he got along with the other characters.

That all the reviews said the same thing about how the drama ended tells you right there that there are no redeeming qualities for this one. Run far, run fast. And I am adding this FL to my list of never-to-be-watched-again.

Home is no longer sweet

Extremely inconsistent tone for its episodes that led the storyline direction to nowhere. The action sequence in the first three episodes is absolutely impressive, it's cinematic and immersive but that's all about it. The episodes ahead are of really questionable decisions, the whole mood shifted out of sudden with a bunch of newly added characters that look detached and don't provide much to drive the storyline. Things got stagnant and the monster craze wore out pretty quickly, it felt like they were trying to reserve the bigger part for the next season, but hype dies down and home is no longer sweet.

phenomenal unpredictable chaos

completely different than the webtoon I found it much more better to make zero the daughter of Yi-kyung, I don't know I think it adds more to the story that way, her mother death was really emotional, If the dauther really cares about Hyun-su she wouldn't have done that even if she don't like her mother

Also the add soldiers side was great, and I wished they have added more episodes so Hyun-su would have more scenes, I still don't know how he was able to come back to life after fighting with Ui-myeong

overall I loved it to the point that i binge watch it in one sitting and can't wait for season 3

whole season felt like a prologue for season 3

I was waiting for season 2, finally watched it, I was disappointed bcoz compare to season 1 , season 2 was too dull, I know there are trying to make it like x men but whole season was prologue for season 3,
, there were too many characters like season 1 ,

but no meaningful, unlike season 1,

main hero arrive to late in story, there were no heroic moment like season 1 , guess all the heroes died or got turn,

experience of the people living underground felt like kind of boring, should be like in metro games, people. who didn't understand should play metro games,


hope season 3 is better

A lot going on, monsters and soldiers, a nice watch

If I compare S1 to S2, then I found S1 to be more interesting. But if I solely talk about S2 then there was a lot going on. Since in S2, they have come out from the apartment to the outside world, of course, there has to be some more characters to have the story going on and to make it interesting, but somehow it felt like that there were too many characters and it was difficult to grasp upon each character story. For instance, you weren’t able to understand their perspective or their point of view or what happened in the past to them more clearly, than I was able to understand of S1 cast cause there story has already been developed.
This season was more focused upon how soldiers are trying to fight and save people. A lot of screen time was given to soldiers and showcased how much they’re sacrificing just to save people. It also showed that how most of the people just thought about themselves and not about those soldiers who are risking their life for the people.
There are new kinds of monster in this season and some of them felt like they were robots, which I found a bit strange. It also showed how the monsters are afraid of humans. As humans can kill them any time and how they wanted to save themselves as well as the other monsters and that’s why they want to kill humans.
There were some part which I have found a little bit boring (maybe because I wanted to see song kang lol) but still it was a nice watch.
Since I am a die hard fan of song kang I didn’t like the fact that being the ML, he was given a very less screen time and dialogues and also the last episode last seen where eun yu and hyun su were talking and how their was a tension between them and then suddenly the scene got cut off and I felt so bad.(crying)
Music – S1 had some awesome songs and they are a part of my playlist even today. But I didn’t like the fact that they didn’t put any kind of music in S2 because in S1 there were a lot of comments upon how the songs are not matching with the scenes. So maybe that’s why the director doesn’t put any song in this season.

But overall I liked it. It was different from S1 and it focused upon some other things. They were few emotional scenes as well and I would recommend people to watch it.

Now about the fact that would I re watch it or not? Yes, I would re-watch it when the S3 will be coming lol.
WAITING FOR S3!!!!!

OF fatto come doveva essere? Con spiegazione

Allora, prima della recensione alcune info importanti:
1. non leggetela se avete visto Only Friends, l’avete amata e pensate che questa serie sia simile (lo è per certi aspetti, però qua io critico OF, quindi se vi è piaciuta non voglio rovinare la vostra esperienza con il mio cinismo)
2. non guardatela se NON avete visto Only Friends e pensate di vederla perché potrei fare spoiler anche di quella perché in alcuni punti devo fare dei confronti.
3. farò ovviamente (ma lo ho già segnato) spoiler della serie
4. farò degli spoiler anche della prima stagione (magari lievi), ma se non l’avete vista e pensate di riuscire a vedere la seconda senza la prima, beh non fatelo (e poi dico il perché), non leggete la mia recensione.
Bene io vi ho avvisato, quindi accetto delle discussioni aperte e rispettose sul fatto che OF vi possa essere piaciuta di più o di meno, ma che non mi si dica che non ho avvisato che facevo spoiler.
Ok, ora veniamo a noi.
Ci siamo lasciati nella stagione scorsa con un apparente ritorno allo status quo: Sam e Earth assieme (anche se con qualche difficoltà), Stud che fa comunque parte del gruppo di amici (anche se ci sono comprensibili tensioni con Earth), Boom sempre con Tor e invece Yo che si è messa con Good. Quando ho visto la prima puntata, confrontandola con la stagione precedente mi sono detta che è come una partita di Monopoli dove cominci e lanci i dadi e arrivi alla fine, ma ad una casella prima del via, senza mai più poi toccare il via: insomma se nella prima stagione si era tornati alla stato iniziale delle cose, non era proprio così, da qui la famosa casella prima del via del monopoli, ma non quella del via. E da questa situazione molto tesa comincia la storia: Good e Yo hanno dei problemi, Sam e Earth, Boom e Yo… insomma tutti hanno problemi ma che fanno finta di non vedere. Inseriamo il primo di un elenco di personaggi a sorpresa che andranno a sbloccare questa molto tesa situazione di stallo: il primo di questi personaggi è la compagna di studi della gang che riporta con sé Safe (Joss ti amo come attore, anche se qui sembravi un feto) e che ci introduce a Loker (il quale è interpretato da Pluem che io non smetterò mai di sottolineare essere praticamente il fratello scomparso di New), poi abbiamo il dottor Ton prima (un collega di Sam) e poi dopo Pob (il suo ex e dio ti amo Arm, torno in me), abbiamo Ta (il cucciolo di intern della stagione precedente che a quanto pare ha smesso di essere un intern… ok lo ammeto qui una volta per tutte i gemelli della GMM sono il mio bias attuale e vi giuro che vorrei vederli in BL come protagosti come poche cose al monde, visto anche la discreta figura che ha fatto AJ nelle scene con Stud), poi abbiamo Music (che prima doveva provarci con Tor, poi con Good e alla fine si scopre avere interessanti rapporti con Loker), il fratello di Tor (che scopriamo viene da una famiglia abbiente) e mi stavo quasi per scordare la plotline con Chris. Bene, questa è la nostra ricetta perfetta per un disastro oppure per una serie che può dare molti spunti. Bene, ora parto con alcuni confronti, quindi preparatevi: quando ho finito (circa, lo ho finito perché so cosa succede perché quando usciva ero su Twitter, ma tecnicamente non ho visto alcuni episodi di OF) OF mi sono chiesta il perché di molte scelte sul finale e prima che compaia il commento tipico, perché me lo hanno già fatto, SO che la storia di Mark e Neo e quella di Force e Book è “tratta da una storia vera e così è finita nella realtà”. Mi sono chiesta ad esempio come mai l’unica coppia che effettivamente ha avuto un finale che per il tipo di relazione fra tutti i personaggi mi sembrava azzeccato fosse l’unica coppia che non è una coppia ufficiale. Mi sono fatta delle domande, mi sono data delle risposte e mentre me le davo ho letto commento, la parafrasi e la traduzione sono circa “P’Jojo ha cercato di fare come in FriendZone, ma non ci è riuscito” e allora mi sono detta, guardiamo questo FriendZone (ci tengo a sottolineare che io già guardavo BL quando era uscito, ma forse perché non li guardavo come ora, o perché avevo appena visto SOTUS non lo avevo visto). E ho capito molte cose. Siamo onesti se uno dei personaggi fosse stato Krist chi ci avrebbe assicurato che sarebbe successo tutto come è successo nella serie? Non avremmo dato tutti per scontato (visto che erano all’epoca ancora una coppia ufficiale) che in qualsiasi modo (visti anche i rimagheggiamenti della serie) sarebbe sicuramente finito con Singto? Probabilmente indipendenteme fosse stato il suo ruolo. E ci ho ragionato più volte sull’argomento (per citare TikTok il mio Roman Empire è pensare quanto siano differenti i BL di ora con quelli che vedevo quando ho cominciato) e ho detto chissà se anche all’epoca il regista e lo sceneggiatore sarebbero stati così tanto schiavi delle opinioni di Twitter, non lo so. E non lo sapremo mai, OF è uscito ora, FriendZone (il secondo) almeno 3 anni fa. Però mi ha portato a confrontare le due serie e nonostante OF sia più intensa, FriendZone porta il messaggio meglio. Partendo dal presupposto che qua tutte le storyline sono abbastanza curate e anche se magari alcuni argomenti importanti vengono introdotti solo per poco (come il bipolarismo, spero fosse questa la patologia, di Chris) gli si è dato il tempo di svilupparli e ogni tanto si ritorna per fare un po’ il punto della situazione (sto parlando proprio dell’alcolismo di Rey se ve lo steste chiedendo) e un altra cosa che ho notato qui in positivo (e ovviamente in OF in negativo) è che in questa serie (positiva o negativa che sia come cosa) i personaggi secondari hanno dello spessore vero proprio: ora in OF il massimo dello spessore di un personaggio secondario è stato Daddy Dan e quel pezzo di m**** di Atom che finge che Ton lo abbia vio*****to, fine. Gli altri personaggi secondari sono dimenticabilissimi, ovviamente prima che arrivi il commento “eh, ma si volevano concentrare sui personaggi principali” vi rispondo già che per il mio gusto, non sono stati in grado di fare nemmeno quello bene. Mentre in questa serie forse accade il contrario, alcuni personaggi secondari hanno troppa personalità rispetto ad alcuni primari (ad esempio Pob che ho preferito a Sam e Music che ho preferito a Yo). Un’altra cosa che ho notato in questa seconda stagione è che da la backstory di questi personaggi: in OF (vi ho avvisati tutti che in questa recensione avrei parlato anche di questa) non si ha una vera backstory né per i personaggi come singoli né per i personaggi come gruppo, mentre se nella prima stagione si vedono un po’ di backstory sui personaggi come singoli qui abbiamo una backstory di come sono diventati amici e di come alcuni rapporti all’interno del loro si sono formati. In OF non sappiamo nemmeno come si sono conosciuti e visto che in comune hanno solo il corso di laurea, mentre sono completamente differenti sia come singoli che come gruppo sembra veramente che manchi qualche cosa (poi anche qui sono diversi, ma almeno vedi come si è formato il gruppo, ok, questa è la differenza). Credi di aver finito con i confronti, se penso ad altro ci torno: passiamo ai personaggi, i miei preferito sono sicuramente Stud e Tor, per i main, mentre per quelli secondari Pob e Music (con un extra per Ta), ma devo dire che a parte il complesso della vittima di cui soffre Yo (e che si libera alla fine) mi sono piaciuti tutti e mi sono piaciute le loro dinamiche. Ho pure fatto un assurdo confronto con “I Told The Sunset About You” che vi risparmio (allora, a me citata serie non piace, vi prego non apriamo questo ulteriore vaso di pandora, però il confronto non era per dire è meglio l’una o l’altra solo che alcuni comportamenti di Earth e Stud, nel loro rapporto, mi hanno ricordato quelli di Teh e Oh, uno che conclude tutto tranne l’amore e l’altro che forse ha poca serietà per tutto il resto tranne che in amore), scherzo, è molto riassunta scritta nella parentesi. Mi sono piaciute le interazioni tra di loro, come singoli, come coppie, come gruppo e rapporto che hanno avuto con i personaggi secondari: l’unico rapporto su cui ho dei dubbi è quello di Tor e Boom. Diciamo che ci sono due scuole di pensiero, la mia il resto: la mia è che nel momento in cui si sono spostati Tor si è sentito obbligato perché tutti gli dicevano guarda Boom ti ha aiutato prima è ora che ricambi (questo è il mio malcelato cinismo verso l’umanità), l’altra scuola di pensiero è che una relazione (come è giusto che sia) è fatta di compromessi, solo che dal mio punto di vista, è vero che Boom ha dovuto fare dei compromessi (soprattutto all’inizio della loro relazione), sembra che l’unico che li ha fatti sia stato Tor (poi ho detto, Tor è uno dei miei personaggi preferiti quindi forse ho un po’ il bias, ma spero di essermi comunque spiegata e di averlo fatto nel modo più oggettivo del mondo).
Poi non dico che è perfetta, anzi, una delle cose che mi ha disturbato è il tempo della storia che non mi quadra; un’altra cosa che ho trovato irritante è il complesso della vittima di Yo di cui ho detto prima e il non velato slut shaming a Stud (punto in comune con OF). Però posso passare oltre, alla fine la serie mi è piaciuta, anche con queste pecche, per me almeno. Concludo con il messaggio finale della serie: la storia ci insegna che a. qualcosa di una relazioni tossiche ci perseguiterà tutta la vita, anche se siamo riuscì ad uscirne (Music e Loker o anche Good e Yo) b. alcune volte le relazioni più tossiche sono quelle con i tuoi amici (questo forse più nella prima stagione) c. alcune volte stare da soli è meglio (Yo alla fine), altre volte cambiare funziona (Amm, che forse è l’unico personaggi primario che non mi ha troppo entusiasmato, ma non mi piaceva nemmeno nella prima stagione, e Stud), altre volte bisogna fare dei compromessi (Tor e Boom), altre volte invece anche se la solitudine è necessaria, non vuole dire che non faccia male (Music e Earth) e altre ancora che la solitudine che impongono gli altri per fare del bene a se stessi ha tutto il diritto di farci male (Good e Sam).
Quindi, dopo più di 10000 caratteri vi lascio e vi dico: guardatela se volete OF fatto nel modo in cui forse era teorizzato all’inizio, perché io sono fermamente convinta di due cose su quella serie e quando farò la recensione di OF le leggerete (una ovviamente è stata già citata qui, l’altra ve la accenno, è che se a guardare la serie fossimo stati io e la nonna di P’Jojo forse non ci sarebbero stati tutti quei tagli fatti per accontentare determinati fandom, e sappiamo tutti a chi mi riferisco).

Wang Hedi look great. Bai Lu was so pretty

It was becoz of these two I binge watch for 3 days and almost got headache. Eventhough there are a few illogical moment between ML and FL, this series really make me swoon and felt giddy² inside. And also let just not start discussing about all then hot scenes... #OmyheartWink*
Truely amaze how the other couples made me rooting for them and want them to have a happy closure too. And just For that, this series deserve overall 8 star from me.
The house was a full studio set. How can that be? It so artistic and realistic. I bet the office is a studio set too. No wonder the lighting was spot on in every angle.

Am I going to watch the full series again? No
Am I going to just watch click bait /tt video scene of Shu Yi and Shi Yan? Oh definitly . You bet on in..

Vigilante story done right

It's been a short while since I finished the show so I wanted to share my thoughts.

The story:
This show truly delivers in what it promises; a vigilante story. It's well-executed from start to finish with great acting from all cast members. The story grabs you in and you don't realise how much until the credits rolls. The ending was exactly what I hoped for. One man can't alone change the system, but he can create a spark that could burn it down. And there'll always be someone who'll try to fight against corruption and evil-minded humans.

The OSTs:
There has rarely been a show where I've been obsessed with the sound design as I've been with this show. From the song choices to the score choices, it just fit perfectly and elevated the show to a next level. As I'm writing this review, no OSTs or scorealbum have been released.
