If it wasn't for the Episode 6 & 7 this show would have been 10/10 for me.

Just skip episodes 6 & 7 if you want a perfect show.

SPOILERS FROM EPISODE 5, 6 & 7 BELOW

Their emotions are raw and palpable in Episode 5, with Pat expressing his jealousy and frustration at seeing Pran perform their shared song with someone else. Meanwhile, Pran is grappling with his own feelings for Pat, feeling hurt and confused by Pat's ambiguous actions and the false hope they may have given him.

The expression of their feelings for each other is filled with a mix of pain, vulnerability, and an overwhelming desire to be more than just competitors or enemies. It's a heart-wrenching moment where they lay bare their emotions, and the weight of their unspoken affections becomes too much to bear.

The passionate and emotional kiss that follows is a powerful culmination of their shared history and the longing they've both been harbouring. It's a moment of catharsis and release, as they finally confront the truth of their feelings for each other.

In Episode 6, when Pran withdrew himself it was understandable. He realised it was no longer an unrequited feeling, but a mutual feeling with the possibility of the relationship, he had to consider the consequences of their relationship amidst the feuding families. Episode 6 wasn't bad until the very end, where they start the ridiculous game of "whoever confesses first loses."

After witnessing their raw and vulnerable expression of feelings in Episode 5, the focus on a competition to see who will confess first might feel like a step backwards in the development of their relationship. The end of Episode 5, where both Pat and Pran open up about their emotions and share a passionate kiss, was pivotal in personal growth and relationship progression. They bring a sense of closure and authenticity to their connection, allowing them and us to understand the depth of their feelings for each other.

Following such a powerful scene, it's natural to hope that the narrative would continue to explore their relationship in a more meaningful and emotionally resonant way, rather than falling back on a repetitive and less compelling plot device. While "who will confess first" dynamics can create tension and anticipation in certain contexts, using it immediately after such an emotional breakthrough might feel forced and detract from the impact of their expression.

Firstly i wondered why this series is not rated 10/10 or atleast 9,After reading some comments i came to know that there are some flaws in the story line...
But again if you ask me i would go back from my words, DEFINITELY NOT!!
I loved watching this series... Though there are some flaws in this series,all are ruled out by the immense romance of the main leads...? Both Mew and Gulf has a beautiful chemistry both On and Off screen.. You can watch this series only for them... And the series story line is also not that bad as mentioned in some comments... This series have so many cute scenes that will make ourself blush and give butterflies.. ?
The Series casting is really good!! Both MewGulf beautifully depicted the Tharntype from the Novel..You won't get bored at all, you will be engaged throughout the series... There is also some scenes which will make you cry hard(tharntype breakup scene ?)
Personally, I watched this series more than 5 times.. ?It's my goto series even when I'm Sad or Happy...
I recommend to watch this series to witness the beautiful love of THARN and TYPE?

Two catty managers bitching each other, ft. Fanboy cringefest

Okay, so usually I dont like to write reviews until the whole series is done, but I figured that as I am already dropping it, I might as well say I what I think.

First, the managers need to go. I am sure their rivalry/plot-arc is gonna be the reason the drama eventually happens in the series but for now they are just eating too much screentime. I also have a feeling that this big rivalry is just a pointless case of miscommunication and it will be resolved in like 5 mins at the end of ep 10.

Moving on, as a fangirl, I can understand Ja/Punn to an extent but that overly stupid puppy shtick doesn't make for a good show. The cringe factor and secondhand embarrassment is just too much, but I am not gonna say anything because I too was in his shoes (or maybe even worse, coz I have thrown a massive tantrums and gotten physically violent when my sister touched my stuff. Of course, we would work it out later, but that's a different story). Putting that aside, it's not funny either.

I am not a fan of DSN but I liked the chemistry between Ja and First. But in this show, I felt...nothing. In fact, for the whole 3 episodes, apart from that one night stand between Mung and the doctor, for the whole 3 episodes my expression was the exact same as the female lead (Vorra) when the managers started fighting in ep 1, which is basically "just finish already so I can go back to scrolling youtube shorts". Watching paint dry is more exciting.

I do hope the story picks up now that the leads have finally met. I might give it another try after a few more weeks, but for now this it.

Wonderful show

First Asian "you know what" dating show, aside from its usual much beloved drama, but hey wait Phillipines has one too, Sparky or Spark Camp if I'm wrong. Hmm I wonder when will Thailand will follow suit.

To say the least, this reality show is a wonderful start for us and the rest of world to convey the peace message that people "you know what" are also existed and deserved much love too, so let's spread love and tolerance.

Well last but not least, enjoy the show for I will remember well and rewatch the whole episode again.

P.S. Jang min-si, fighting...

Dropped - Big Spoilers

In phone app the comments show first 4 lines.
Taking up space.
To not spoil.
Can't give 0 for rewatch value but it's 0.
This extra line just in case.

Basically the only couple I ended up here for was possible princess SuZui but he drinks poison so pass.

FL started pretty cool but quickly became intolerable with the petty and immature way she treats ML. Though the cast, acting (even FL actor), other characters, and story are all good imo, but it's not enough to deal w the FL also.

okay wait why did this actually eat

It got 8.6 stars out of 10 from me. The first two moons got a 9 out of 10. The two moons got an 8.5 out of 10, and this one as well got an 8.5 out of 10. Four days later, I knocked all of them out. I think this one isn't even that bad; people just rate it badly because it's not the greatest, but that doesn't mean it's not good. It was a pretty good show, and the chemistry was so much better in this one than the other two. That's one thing this 2 moons did right.

But once again, this was not needed. They could have definitely made this into its own show; it didn't need to be connected to the other two. The goofy cliffhanger finally got resolved around episode 6, which was good to see because that's why I started watching this one so fast. I was going to take a break, but I started and finished it today, because of that cliffhanger, lol (I say lol in this a lot).

I am also glad they didn't really make Phana being a moon a big deal. They mentioned it, sure, but I am glad they let our new characters shine, and it was a needed wake-up call with Lom losing, like a badly needed one. Im glad they didn't make it so Pha outshined him in any way; they were just cousins who thought of each other as brothers, which was cute. Okay, I am going to check out my instagram close friends highlight of 2 moons 1/2/3 lol.

The first thing I posted 10 hours ago was about the need for season 3. Like why? That's so much for the plot to be exactly the same for each of them. And then I had to try and put names to faces because it was once again a new cast, and I was struggling. The new cast was actually pretty good-looking, but I missed Joong Archen.

Beam and forth's chemistry was so much better in this one. Beam was so much better in this one, lol. The other two did my boy so dirty. And not to mention Beam's actor in this one was so sexy—oh my god, the way he looked and spoke—and oh my god, bro, it wasn't even funny.

Then we get to know Lom more, and he was talking to a pig cow thing, so I called him a Disney princess, because why the hell would he be talking to animals otherwise? Ming was being weird with the water scene, lol, but his actor was so fucking built; my god, he had an amazing body.

The actor who plays Tatch looks like Gawin Caskey or Fluke Gawin Caskey, and I kept mentioning that to myself. His being jealousy of the cousins was interesting to see and just mad embarrassing for him. "Okay, Gawin Caskey." Was my motto throughout these episodes. Then I got the side-by-side, couldn't even tell the difference between the two.

Lom's character became more likable, and I fell in love with his and Tatch's really good chemistry. Their story was a mashup between Wayo and Phana and Ming and Kit. That's kind of what I got from it. The childhood lovers, one-sided at least, were Wayo and Phana, and the whore era was Ming and Kit vibes. They had some banger sex scenes too; the way they did them was just so fantastic, and it's always good to see a good sex scene. Once again, they were killing it, mainly with the body movements and the head tilts.

I thought the twins were played by the same person, but they are actually twins in real life. I mean, same, but that was so hard for me to wrap my head around. The detail on Pharak with him trying to commit suicide and the cuts were a good detail that I almost missed, but that was really interesting to see.

Then I saw that 2Together called and they wanted their jerseys back. It was funny in my head, I swear, but no, that was giving the jerseys from 2gether.

Then our boy, Tatch, kicks a trash can into the car, which was really funny to me, and I still don't understand why. Bro finally put those long legs to use, I guess. In the infirmary too. The twins were fighting, and I was laughing the whole time because Phorn, or Pharn, was trying to finish Phark off like he was the Joy Joy Gang in Dark Deception Chapter 4, bro. I even got the side-by-side. That was very funny, lol.

Then the two friends of Lom were dancing at his party thing, and that was cute because their little moments were very cute to see. Then I was manifesting that Pha proposes, and he does, which was cool to see, and that's really it.

So yeah, in summary. This could have been its own thing. We didn't need that many moons. But what we did get was a lot of good chemistry, a good-looking cast, more real-life stuff, and yeah. I liked it, so I would recommend it because, just like the other two, it was a pretty light watch, and the cast was light on the eyes, so yeah. So go for it, if you want to, if you don't, than don't lol. okay bye!

It was so good and then kind of okay

Some potential spoilers:

I started this drama on a whim because I didn't think I would really get into the story. I really got hooked from the beginning and enjoyed it. I thought that the story was fun and had pretty hilarious bits. I liked the FL character and how she was just honest about herself. The ML was adorable and loving which I like in a ML.

The chemistry between the ML and FL was so good in the first half. I loved their banter and interactions. Then the second half of the drama the chemistry was almost awkward. It's like they filmed the last half of the drama first and the first part of the drama second. It was a notable shift for me.

I really think they could have made this 20 episodes. There was a weird other sibling that I felt like was not really apart of the story but would randomly pop up. I felt like there were a bit too many characters for this one story.

I liked that they showed her getting overwhelmed by everything with the wedding and her slowly panicking because that's exactly what would happen. I mean I wish that it would have happened sooner because that storyline was so much anxiety for the last two episodes.

I do like this leads together and like their acting individually as well
Would I rewatch this? I mean I have rewatched much worse. I would rewatch on 2x speed.

A 3-star-worthy drama

This drama started nice for me, finally a business romance with a different plot because these past few months I keep watching those genres where the male lead is so bossy and snob to the female lead, but this one is different.

I thought I would love this series but the miscommunication between the main leads got me annoyed. A lot of their problems with each other could easily be solved if they just communicate. And both of their parents are childish, they just make things around them worse.

But other than that, everything is tolerable. Both of the main leads matured, I like how they solve and start their relationship again, and how they got back.

This is not the worse or the best drama, but I could say that this is good enough to recommend to someone who likes this kind of genre. A 6 out of 10.

true enemy of nation was royal family not Mishil

whole drama was good to get 9/10
and i write it only to tell you one spoiler that real enemy and villain of this drama wasn't Mishil
but Vile Kim Chanchu, he was a real MF of that time, if his mother would not have died then he would have killed and eaten her raw , that kind of demon Chanchu was ,
Mishil had morals but Chanchu was worst kind of human, he was disgrace to human race
his lust for throne and his aunt Queen Seon Duk was so big that it can swallow whole Korean peninsula itself
Bidam man that try his everything to save his mother Princess was killed by Chunchu who wasn't even a man

how deokman uses son against his own mother, and then kill that son merciless
just like her great grandfather jinhaung uses mishil and then order to kill her after her use
Royal family did all sins to keep throne because that belong to them,
Grandfather was evil his son was evil, his granddaughter great seonduk was evil and the most evil Bitch CHUNCHU

How did i miss it untill now...

Not sure how to start as i had such a nice time watching this. Loved it completely and will definitely re-watch it.
Chae Jong Hyeop is a new discovery for me, he has such a handsome charisma, impossible to resist.
The drama is about love, sports and perseverance for the things you love, in this case is badminton.
I really loved how straight forward is the ML, if he has to say something he will say it without taking corners. I believed in him from start till the end.
What i didn't understand through all the series why only mail female lead was blamed for the accident. The other girl/woman who was 22 at the time had fun, drink and went for skateboard itself, maybe the main female lead proposed it, but she is an adult she could refuse no problems, so why the other part was to be blamed. Only the male mail lead mentioned a couple of times as it was an accident. I think Park Tae Yang only fault was that she came with the idea to have fun and didn't tell the truth afterwards, but not the gravity to be blamed to such extent.
Another thing that made it worth it as all characters are interesting in here. Chemistry is absolutely gorgeous between Park twins.
There is a lot of sad moments in this drama, but not sure why it felt so warm to me.

welp there goes me being extremely attached to every character

Dude I'm so happy that I got into this franchise ?Personally as someone who went a little out of order watching the entire series (the seasons + the movies), season 2 filled in a lot of plot and character details that add so much to the entire story, which I already loved and became obsessed with. But regarding season two itself, I find it so easy to get attached to the cast of characters we are introduced to and seeing all the great friendships blossom & become something so much bigger. A series like this always keeps you on your toes and is already introducing the next complex character, tense situation, or badass scene.

This season is really essential to the whole overriding theme of friendship/loyalty and the whole "we're stronger together" message. A franchise like this easily sells this basic theme too considering how simple yet done to justice every character and their arcs are done. My favorite characters, Murayama and Todoroki, get their backstories in this season, and they are THE essential characters of the series, the two characters that really bridge the original cast to the new generation in The Worst movies. Murayama is the star of the franchise, pretty much the epitome of what the series is trying to show, and he SHINES in this season. He's such a well-written character and so rounded. I would go on about him but I don't want to turn this review into an essay, so I digress. Murayama has the fullest development of any character, and by contrast, Todoroki at this point is still the antithesis to everything Murayama/the series represents. Todoroki is such a cool character and my personal enjoyment comes from both a place of relating to him but also simply enjoying his snarky, ambitious attitude. Other than that, I just love that Todoroki is a character who originally fought to defend himself, and then started giving 0 fucks and simply thought fighting was fun. I love that. Seeing the dynamic & rivalry of these 2 is highly rewarding.

My only critiques of this season is that some of the backstory scenes, especially that of Kohaku's storyline get a little dragged out (I had the same issue with the movie(s) that explored his character in depth) so the pacing gets a little slow in at least one episode, but considering the entire show does drag things out a little from time to time I'm used to it by now and it's not really that bad. I will also say that because of certain flashbacks I got a little confused on chronological order of some things but that goes back to the watch order thing mostly.

Join the fun and watch HiGH&Low. This is only one of two shows I've seen that has made me genuinely fixated on the fandom aspect.

I liked Family: the Unbreakable Bond

Overall I found this drama silly but entertaining. Granted I couldn’t figure out who the good guys were and just knew from the top.

The family was heartwarming most of the time.

I was Surprised as Do Hoon was that Yu Ra was a sniper also.

Heartbreaking that a government can so callously and coldly use children as if the end justifies the means when they killed them.

Of course, it goes without saying that Jang Hyuk is one of my favorite actors and I have enjoyed every drama that he’s costarred in with Jang Na Ra. Although there’s not any romantic chemistry between them I enjoy watching them together.

I wish Cha Tae Hyun had more scenes. I have to watch episode 1 again because he is that funny.

Gripping and A LOT of plot twists...

I watch A LOT of J-drama's especially BL's. And i have too say this one was done very well. I really thought the acting was great with a lot of plot twists. Especially, towards the end. All in all i'd really like too see a second season happen so we can watch how our characters are developing in their new roles and lives after "the incident" and truth was finally told. I especially, want too see if Mitarai Makiko is going too continue her devious schemes or finally turn the corner for the better. I'd like too see Kichi and Anzu get married and have kids. And perhaps that would change Kichi's mother into a kinder more caring person. And i definitely want too see Shinji become a doctor at the hospital and start his relationship with Yuzu. So hopefully the director get the positive feedback he needs too "green light" this a second season. Because their is a lot they could do with it if given the chance.

What was the point?

I'd never seen so many not so good looking guys in one drama and even though I don't consider myself to be superficial, I found that the lack of eye candy in addition to such a boring slow-as-hell plot did nothing to assuage the ennui that crept in with each new episode.
Frankly, I found this uninspired and at times ridiculous. For an ensemble cast of relatively talented actors, the script really let them down and gave them little to work with other than creating division and disharmony over whether inner beauty trumped the physical. That was further compounded by making our weak-looking love interests do acts that were cruel, demeaning, and vastly inappropriate (looking at you Teacher Mai). Was there a lesson in there somewhere?

You Are My Home

There are some flaws with Happiness, like the ending for example. Not only was it sad because of the victims of the serial killer, but I had wished to see him prosecuted because of it. Instead there wasn't much on that. I also wished to see more of the general and his wife, but you only saw him give the antibodies to her. The ending wasn't bad because of that, because all of it was pretty much wrapped up in the end. You saw the general have a happy ending, although it didn't go into too much detail. In the end, Sae-Bom realizes her love for Yi-Hyun and calls him her home. Happiness did not focus on the outbreak, as it is pretty much contained to the apartment, but rather Sae-Bom and Yi-Hyun. The outbreak was a plot device for her to realize how he was her home. That was the reason I loved this show. :-)
