A SCHOOL THATโS NOT EVEN A SCHOOL, BUT A KOREAN VERSION OF THE FAVELAS
After giving my review of Season 1, hereโs my take on Season 2:A SCHOOL THATโS NOT EVEN A SCHOOL, BUT A KOREAN VERSION OF THE FAVELAS
After the incident in Season 1, heโs forced to change schools. As usual, he ends up in a school that feels more like the favelas than an actual schoolโฆ but okay, whatever. Once again, we have 65yrs old looking unemployed guys robbing 15yr old of their phones, food, and money. Iโm starting to get really tired of this trope, itโs so stupid. But anyway, thatโs just my personal opinion.
The story starts with the big unemployed guy with zero aura trying to intimidate him, but it doesnโt work lol. So he asks the weakest one to do it for him. Then he keeps trying every possible way to cause problems for the main character with other people. This eventually leads our protagonist to meet the basketball team, especially one particular member.
Of course, our national unemployed legend creates problems hoping it will backfire on the main characterโฆ but unfortunately for him, it ends up creating future bonds instead of tension. Then conflicts arise between our new group and a rival gang led by a student from another school.
Then comes one of the iconic scenes of Season 2: the bathroom scene, where one of the antagonists takes a photo of him, followed by a completely failed and humiliating fight attempt.
After that, we get tons of intimidation scenes and fights, but the best one is the massive fight scene with extreme violence bats, brass knuckles, knivesโฆ everyoneโs completely insane!
At the end of the season, the number 1 antagonist disappears, but the second one (who has the most aura for me) remains. I hope heโll be the main villain in Season 3.
In short, Season 2 is packed with crazy moments and a 65yr old unemployed guy who steals phones from kids at school to pay child support for his 3 children (yes, you guessed it I hate him ).

Sinceramente no veo como esta serie tiene una puntuaciรณn de 9.0. Por favor si estas puntuaciรณn se los dan los fan a los actores; les voy a pedir que los apolen en las redes sociales pero no en pรกginas como esta donde se le da una calificaciรณn a un colectivo completo, en pรกginas como esta tenemos que ser sinceros porque lo que estรกn diciendo que esta historia, guion, directores etc... Vale esa puntuaciรณn y en verdad esta serie no pasa de ser una mรกs del montรณn. Tal parece que los guionistas se copian entre ellos. Saben pueden buscar entre las literaturas clรกsicas o las grande pelis a ver si la musa se les aparece y crean algo diferente.Lo bueno que vi:
Fue la actuaciรณn de TeeTee Wanpichit Nimitparkpoom dado que tenรญa un personaje complicado, no todos los actores pueden hacer un personaje con este estilo artรญstico de โsobreactuaciรณnโ. No es un estilo que me guste, la mayorรญa de las veces rechazo al personaje pero esta vez me reรญ muchรญsimo. Creo que lo trabajo muy bien.
La actuaciรณn en general fue aceptable con la excepciรณn de las escenas de llanto de Por Suppakarn Jirachotikul. Horrible esa escena. Debieron grabarlas hasta ver la lรกgrima rodar por la mejilla.
Le agradezco al guionista o al director que no se le ocurriera la idea de emparejar a los amigos de duang con los de Qinn.
Lo malo que vi:
12 capitulo son mucho para una serie que no tenido contenido alguno.
Se habla del abuso que sufriรณ Qinn de niรฑo, pero no del tiempo que hubo desde que finalizรณ ese abuso hasta la conversaciรณn con sus padres. Acaso no tubo otras personas buenas que lo acompaรฑo ese tiempo mientras crecรญa y se desarrollaba como indebido. El psicรณlogo no le dijo que Qinn debรญa seguir en tratamiento esta que llegara a superar etc... Fue el รบnico tema que tuvo valor aquรญ como para 12 capitulo pero el guionista o directores no les parecieron.
Pusieron a como un tonto en todos los sentidos. No solo en el aspecto romรกntico (que serรญa en este tema una sobreactuaciรณn dando paso a la comedia). El padre, el hermano, los amigo etcโฆ le hacen burlas y para colmo Qinn lo mira como si รฉl fuera una papa podrida o algo por el estilo y a eso sรบmale que no tiene sueรฑos propios.En fin este personaje tuvo mรกs escenas vergonzosas que comicas. Ablaro me gusto la actuacion de TeeTee Wanpichit Nimitparkpoom pero no el personaje โduangโ

After watching Season 1 and 2 more than twice, hereโs my review of the drama:
Letโs talk about the story:
A simple student in a school full of bullies (theyโre not changing a winning formula). Other students constantly messing with him. Episode 1 is explosive the moment he smashes the guyโs face with a notebook, +20 hits, I literally counted them I loved it.Season 1 has some really strong opponents: from classmates to gang members, all the way up to the gang leader. Plus the original antagonist who really pisses you off by the end of the season by sending someone from the group (I wonโt spoil the name). That antagonist ends up becoming a huge victim and has to ask for help. Overall, Season 1โs story is TOP tier!
The actors? Nothing to criticize theyโre incredible!
The fight scenes are intense, exactly how we like them!
eng is not my first lang so sorry if i made some error in my text

A simple but effective drama: a murder, a suspect, and a solid story. On the other hand, we have a woman with a very special ability she can detect lies (which would be really useful for us in real life too lol).
Overall, I thought the story was well developed: from their first meeting on the bus, to him becoming her neighbor, the discovery of his identity, the moment she finds out heโs been accused of murder, and how lost she feels because of it. Then the way the story unfolds youโre genuinely surprised by who actually caused the tragedy, even if itโs a bit predictable. From the very beginning, without knowing the plot, I suspected her friend was the culprit. Still, the story stays really cool.The acting is good overall. Not surprising coming from the actress she always delivers. I didnโt know the actor before, so he was a pleasant discovery.

WHAT. WAS. THIS. SERIES. I'm in awe!!!
I went in expecting one thingโฆ and got COMPLETELY blown away.First of all: this is NOT a BL (and Iโm glad I didnโt go in expecting that, but it was really comfort to watch some of my favs BL actors doing a great job here). Yes, Nai is clearly in love with Dan, but romance is barely even 1% of the story. This is something else entirely, and honestly? so much better than I imagined. Because what Shadow delivers is a MASTERPIECE of psychological horror and suspense.
Iโm not even exaggerating when I say Iโve never watched something that blends supernatural elements, urban legends, religion, and a criminal case THIS well. Everything is so layered, so detailed, and so intentionally built that youโre constantly trying to piece things together.
And the plot twists??? FUCKING INSANE!!!!
Every time you think you understand whatโs happening, the story shifts and reveals something new. Itโs one of those shows that actually makes you think, and when things start connecting, itโs just mind-blowing.
The atmosphere is another level. The cinematography has this warm, almost haunting tone that fits perfectly with the late 90s setting, and it just pulls you deeper into the story. It feels immersive, heavy, and so well-crafted.
AND THE ENDING??? IโM STILL NOT OVER IT.
When you realize that itโs not actually Dan backโฆ OH MY FUCKING FUCKS!!!
I was literally sitting there in shock. No reaction AT ALL, just like jaw on the floor, brain not processing, needing a full minute to recover. That twist??? Was too insane to cope at once.
This one is so complex, atmospheric, and incredibly well-written. A psychological horror that actually delivers on every level. This was a whole EXPERIENCE, not just a series!!

He Fell First, He Fell Hardโฆ I Didnโt Sleep Because of It ?
The Romance of Tiger and Rose โ Review (0 or 10 Type of Viewer ๐)When it comes to dramas, Iโm the type of viewer who only has two ratings: 0 or 10. No in-between. No โit was good butโฆโ or โit wouldโve been better ifโฆโโnone of that ๐
Because honestly, whatโs the point of watching?
To criticize every little detailโฆ or to actually enjoy the story?
And The Romance of Tiger and Rose?
For me, this is a solid 10
Now, I know some people might say the plot is not unique, or that it feels repetitiveโa writer transported into her own script, trying to survive while changing the storyline. I get that. I really do.
But for me? Once Iโm entertained, Iโm in. No โwhat ifs, what could've been.โ I either love it or I donโtโand I LOVED this.
At first, it felt like a short dramaโfast-paced, a bit unserious, almost like a parody of historical dramas. But thatโs exactly what made it so refreshing. Especially if youโre coming from heavy, emotionally draining series, this feels like a complete reset.
And the best part?
Han Shuo.
This man was head over heels from early on ๐ญ
Like, FULL ON. No hesitation. No confusion.
๐ Loyal
๐ Protective
๐ Soft only for her
๐ A total SIMP (and I mean that in the best way possible ๐)
Watching him fall first and fall HARD while
Chen Qianqian was still stuck in โthis is just a scriptโ mode made everything even more entertaining. And when she finally realizes her feelings? That shift was so satisfying.
I even lost sleep because I was enjoying it so much ๐
If I had to point out one thing, I just wish we got more scenes in the modern world towards the endโmaybe even just one full episode of them outside the script. That wouldโve been perfect.
And of course, Zhao Lusi never disappoints. From Who Rules the World to Love Like the Galaxy and now this, sheโs consistently amazing. I really hope she continues doing more projects (and stays healthy ๐).
So yes, others might critique the plot or say itโs predictableโฆ
But for me?
๐ If I enjoy it, itโs a 10.
๐ And this one? Definitely a 10/10.
No explanations needed ๐

Simply a good drama if youโre looking for a sweet, slow-burn romance with a touch of fantasy that you discover pretty early on. One of the final scenes is particularly sad!I recommend this drama if you want a gentle romance that doesnโt feel forced.I found the scenes where she talks to the dead really cool, but they werenโt developed enough.
Sometimes youโd get two scenes of her talking to the dead, then nothing for 4 episodes. I think thatโs a shame.

I got so attached to them, and now it just feels empty.

I donโt even know where to start!First of all, this post contains spoilers, so please donโt read it if you donโt want to be spoiled!The drama is incredible
the story, the music, and the acting are all top-tier.I already knew the two main actors from their previous roles in other series, but I discovered the actresses here, and they are fantastic! I was really impressed by Cheong-aโs acting quality. Itโs very difficult to play roles like this, but she did it perfectly. She managed to convey so much distress in the scenes where her mother beats her, the love scenes, and the school scenes. I think we can all agree on one thing: a huge BRAVO to her for the incredible performance she delivered in this drama!! Eun-yu was also a great discovery. I didnโt know the actress before and I was really blown away by her!Now, letโs talk about the story. Itโs heavily centered around the theme of deaf and mute people. I think some viewers might feel a bit hesitant in the first episode because of this theme, but from the second episode onward, you get completely hooked, and the desire to keep watching only grows stronger. Especially when it jumps to 1995. After episode 4, I was even more eager to continue.I really loved the love story between I-chan and Se-gyeong, the reason behind the creation of the music band, the jealousy and little rivalries it caused, and all the efforts I-chan made to stop his father from pursuing Se-gyeong. I enjoyed the little โwarโ between the three of them. There are so many great scenes!
Then thereโs the adorable moment when I-chan starts developing feelings for Cheong-a after she gives him a drawing, the fax scenes, and the horrible moments where her mother makes her life miserable. Honestly, that mother drove me crazy in every scene she plays the despicable character so well!
The moment when Eun-gyeol discovers the truth about the hell she endures at home and helps her was incredibly touching! And the ending with the accidentโฆ I was completely shocked. I never saw it coming at all! I had imagined it very differently, so it was great to be surprised.Then we get the very emotional hospital scenes with Eun-yu and Se-gyeongโs father, the double moon, the choice to leave or stay, and even more heartbreaking moments at the hospital. How could you not cry?! An incredible ending. The whole family completely changes for the better it was truly WOW!!
The OSTs are amazing too. Big bravo!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS DRAMA!!!

Another series I really liked has come to an end.
I actually enjoyed this more than I expected, especially since it has a university setting. It just worked better for me than I thought it would.
Now it kind of feels like Iโm running out of things to watchโฆ ๐ญ

When Ruthlessness Finds Its Rest
After watching Zhang Linghe in POJ as all so perfect and gorgeous Marques of Wuhan here I land on The story of Kunning Palace to watch him as a red flag toxic ML with cute chubby cheeks!While the FL often maintains a beautiful but somewhat static composure regardless of the stakes, Zhang Linghe carries the emotional weight of the show. You see ML with all varied emotions. You can feel his anger, frustration, desperation ,coldness, madness and longing to be loved .
In her second life, the Female Lead is granted the proximity to finally see the Male Lead for who he truly is. He is far from the conventional "boy next door"; he is a high-and-mighty, ruthless strategist who demands both respect and caution.
โInitially, her heart is ruled by a deep-seated fear, but as the layers of his cold exterior peel away, terror transforms into a profound, aching pity. She begins to understand the wreckage of his past and the physical and mental sickness that haunts him. What follows is not a typical fairy-tale romance, but a raw, mutual recognition of shared brokenness. Their bond becomes a transformative processโa journey where two flawed souls stop running from their shadows and instead begin the difficult, beautiful work of healing one another.

I did not expect that, my bad for not reading the synopsis. BUT I was positively (?) surprised. I did expect more of a love/hate relationship (like before they got to be together), but they show me how they live as a couple, after a few years. Especially as an idol and his hidden boyfriend.
They were cute together and I loved how the main character tried to accept the fact he liked his enemy, it was funny.

I honestly feel sad that I didnโt discover Love Like the Galaxy earlier in any apps i have, I enjoyed it SO MUCH that I barely slept for two days just to finish it.You can never really go wrong with Zhao Lusiโshe was amazing as always. What surprised me the most was the tone of the drama. It had politics, but it wasnโt heavy or draining. In fact, a lot of it felt light and even comedic at times, which is so rare for a historical drama.
And can we talk about the palace characters? For the first time ever, I watched a drama where the consort and the empress werenโt toxic. Empress Xuan was so kind, understanding, and emotionally intelligent. Same with Consort Yueโcalm, wise, and fair. And the emperor? ๐ He was so biased, but in a funny and lovable way. It made the whole palace dynamic feel refreshing instead of stressful.
Of course, there were still characters that tested my patience, especially the Fifth Princess and Third Princessโbut thankfully, they didnโt dominate the entire story.
Ratings
* Conflict: 10/10
* Acting: 10/10
* Overall: 10/10
If I had one small issue, it would be the relationship between Cheng Shaoshang (Niaoniao) and her mother. I understand that her mother was trying to protect her, but at times it felt too overbearing, and the misunderstandings could have been resolved sooner. It was a bit sad to see Niaoniao find more comfort and motherly warmth from the empress instead of her own mother.
On the brighter side, her relationship with her father and brothers was incredibly heartwarming and refreshing. Wished there were more scenes with her family, more bonding with her brothers and father too.
I also appreciated how the drama avoided excessive toxicity and unnecessary backstabbing plots. It focused more on growth, relationships, and emotional development. Although the later part of the story became a bit heavier, it still felt meaningful.
I do wish we had more romantic scenes between Ling Buyi and Niaoniao, but overall, this was such a satisfying watch.
Final verdict: A well-balanced drama with heart, humor, and depth. Definitely one of my all time favorites.

Great production, great acting but that's it. It's poorly written and not much chemistry. I was hoping for more.Sometimes, I don't get why the main character is acting this way. Like why did he punch him??
At first I thought he would end with his team leader (but I spoiled myself). And to be honest, he got chemistry with none of them, no cute moment, no tension. No taste.
I can't give it less, because overoll it's greatly produce just a beautiful cake without any taste.
