life changer

never been a person to give out reviews but this deserves the review i saw gaya se pelikula i was like 17 im now 20 writing this because bl really put a major impact on me because when i was 17 my mindset was different because i was dealing with certain members of the lgbt community that were degrading others for their own reasons it was my spiritual awakening almost to understand love is never going to be perfect but love is also pure and precious, it showed me how to really love not only myself but know how to love and taught me things about the real world like people can change people
can grow and learn and to never let your element be changed to have a open and positive heart and mindset this bl and it really touched me because going back what i said love is not perfect but love is pure sometimes it can be right person wrong time, wrong person right time love keeps the connection alive but this bl may have been the best lgbt representation ever made it provides a lot of life lessons and quotes that are very valuable

They can do a lot better.

The things I am going to say may offend some viewers, so SORRY!!!

NEGATIVE

1. the story could be a lot better

2. The guy at first wants her dead. god, this is highly absurd

3. Too much negativity—just tooooo much. The Villane came at the 2nd episode and scammed till the end.And there is too much screentime of the villane duo, which, as a viewer, I dont want to see

4. The happy moments are short lived, and as a viewer, you will be in a fear that something bad will happen. You cannot watch in peace; the ending is also the last ending monolog is unrequired and instead they could show their marriage affter all of this The fans atleast deserve this so ending is not satisfying.

5. The FL character is somewhere not impactful and just driven by others too much and highly self-centered. She somewhere too much occupied her own problems and hardly thought about ML, her business, her ex coming back, her illness, her family, etc. The story always occupies those things, and the boy just suffers. Somewhere she allowed many things that she should not do with the Villain even if she is mad, like holding her, going under an umbrella, and drinking with her ex when the meeting is not happening. Anything that happened, she ran towards him to make the ML feel bad. After her oparation, he only believed in him, not anyone, and she was never sorry about this to ML. So she hardly thought logically and always doubted the ML from fraud to cheating accusing. She also very little cared about her brother.

6.The side characters are just useless somewhere; they are not able to do anything .The friend and the ML family have done much more here, and his friend literally does everything. Here, many characters are just carried through the show and nothing but weight in the show.

7. The brother and his wife story is very odd and frustrating. She cheated him with her ex and told him that he was not her child's father that's a big blow and flown away and got baeten came back and got accepted without asking any questions—I mean, is it a joke? yes she is regretfull but still at least make her pay for her dids. Some other day, if she thought she would do those again, who knows? This is something absurd and mainly unsatisfying largely. Who is his ex, and why was he chasing what happened at then? nothing said.

8. They are big businessmen but fail to pick such easy scams, and in spite of telling them they didn't even bother to listen to him making her the legal guardian. those are some rookie mistakes

9. One thing is this show is a show of unsatisfying endings: brother and his wife, the ML and the FL, villanes, and many more.

10. The show is very unstable in nature The FL and ML relationship is highly unstable in nature; at moments they are good, and the next day they are in a misunderstanding situation falling apart that is not pleasing to see.

11. The show seems to be in a time span of around six to ten months, and there isn't any good character development there. The brother-sister relationship is not like that in any way.

POSITIVE

1. The biggest positive thing is the acting In spite of the plot hole and the story lines, the acting is what makes this show some where special I like everybody acting the ML and the FL and many more.

2. The screen chemistry of them is great; they just suited with each other; there caring moments at the middel are good. and somewhere holds the show.

3. The caring and good nature of the villagers are very good to see.

4. The detectives and friends are good, and they are only countable characters.

5. In the end, the regret scene of the FL—I mean, it is not good to see, but boy suffers a lot, so this much is tolerable and this shows how much she cares for him now.



Now you may ask, if there are so many negatives and small positives there, then why is the show so popular?
because this show somehow hit the typicalness that many want to see, let me line them up

- A love story.
- A rich girl CEO and the poor (relatively) boy from the village.
- The boy works in her company.
- The boy lives with in-laws.
- The In laws always torment and demean him, but he is good and bearing everything for her.
- The ex of the FL came back and causing a problem.
- The ML is telling her not to entertain her ex but she is constantly ignoring him and doing her things.
- After all the humiliation, he is there because he loves her.
- Broken a car glass for her love.
- The FL is constantly hurting the ML, but he is enduring everything silently.
- He got into an accident, twice got bitten (one time he almost died), one time got shot and for her and many more and still has not left her.
- The girl forgets everything and thinks of him as a stranger, but still he was around her.


So moreover, the ML bears all things mentally and physically and bears all of her tantrums and still loves her. That's somewhere the a large majority of viewer wants to see; that's why it is so famous. But they could change the name to "king of tears." No wait, "queen of tears" is an ideal name because the only thing she has done in this drama is cry.

tiring, endless accusations, but acting was great

a series of mysterious, unsolved murders in a small town where the killers cut off the fingers of the victims? just right up my alley. i think the mystery was well-developed.

at the beginning, i found Lee Dong Shik very hard to read—i couldn’t tell what his intentions were, why he did what he did. he really did look crazy to me. but, this was explained at the end of the series, and i guess he did what he thought was best in his situation, even when it made people questioning his actions.

this series contains endless accusations, which gets tiring as the story goes. since the beginning, the murder investigations from 20 years ago already started out wrong. it was kinda surprising to know that that many people were involved in tempering evidence and covering up the murders. despite the tiring and endless accusations, it was interesting to see how a tight-knit group in a small town started to suspect one another, and later, worked together to catch the killers. speaking of teamwork, i loved it when Lee Dong Shik and Han Ju Won worked together. they were unstoppable!

there is one character that i couldn’t stand, and that person is Park Jeong Je’s mother. she wanted to have her ways and keep her son safe. she is the type of mother who will do anything for her son, even when her son is in the wrongs. unbearably annoying, even more so than the antagonists in this series.

anyway, the acting in this series was superb.

Same old, same old

It,s the same old drama about a girl and a boy. Same old storyline about a girl and a boy falling in love. The actor and actress were great at acting and it did not feel like it’s bad. however, the storyline is too predictable and there is nothing new. Just kept watching it to make sure i finished the drama but 5ere was nothing pulling me to make it enjoyable. There was no plot twist or anything new. It’s the sMe thing that has been played over and over. But just because the story line is the same doesn’t mean it deserve a bad review. The cast did their best and made in a nice show to watch.

The rating I am giving is only because of the chemistry between the leads.Sorry for my long document but watching the series more than 1 time and every time I feel worse from the behavior of JIEON and SEOLRI, I avoid watching from 1-9 because the anger grows and those who wrote the series should explain
(because the series is still watched now) for the way the story is progressing maybe they thought of a different plot but changed it later. 1) JIEON is shown to be a moral person while he himself betrays his wife who was his great love, is enough for him to feel good after the crisis in their relationship and creates an affair with another woman without respect for her, the scene of his wife in the rain crying is shocking while he is with the other and making love. His look at the little whore is shown in the first episodes to be the same loving look he has in the following episodes towards his wife, how come he says afterwards that he only loved his wife. I have read comments and I agree that they have not shown us at all what the relationship between JIEON and SEOLRI was like in America while in the first episodes they show us that there is a erotik relationship between them when they return it does not show them being close but at the same time thinking about marriage (so in America there was no love affair or not which is not possible since they already had) but the author tries to forget what he had shown in the first episodes. When he came back his thought was not to find out what has happened but to continue his life with SEOLRI , he started thinking about his wife only when he saw her with someone else and became jealous. For the DNA confirmation it could have been done earlier since her mother was also alive. They make him mourn her death while he didn't want to see her again, as he said, and it doesn't make sense why they hid it after he had moved on in life. I also wanted an answer when SEOLRI tells him that she dumped him in order to get revenge on his wife if he realized that it was a game for her to make his wife hurt (his look doesn't show it). He blamed his wife for changing. , her change hadn't happened in a day, what did he do for so long because he didn't protect her, he didn't talk to her but maybe he was comfortable with the situation so he wouldn't be bothered by his father. In general, he was a selfish person who only looked out for how he would feel better and got angry when things didn't go his way. 2)HAE GANG the biggest victim of the case was betrayed by her husband and her husband's family. They show when the first memories came she was in pain since she knew from the beginning that SEOLRI had left with JIEON who was married (she was told that at the house she was staying at). They even make her apologize to SEOLRI for coming between the couple in their crisis and leaving her to die on the street. When she found her memory in the plot of the series they make her quickly move past her rage against her husband and that she wanted him back, he had to feel the pain you had caused her and see her hugging and kissing the other man like he showed off with the other. I can't understand that she wanted to protect him and not find out what his family has done since he himself knew what they could do and the wealth where her husband's family had made came from her father and did not belong to them. She deserved a better man. As far as her behavior at the beginning is justified, the movements of a cheated wife are unpredictable, and when she has been betrayed by the man you have gone through so many difficulties and he said that she was his great love but he also shows her on her knees begging the porn.. 3) SEOLRI a calculating person , her love an obsession towards the man. They don't make her apologize for doing so much to HAE GANG she came between the couple in a crisis to get revenge on her, left her to die on the street and stuff. The whore benefited from this relationship, she began to live better as his mistress, her career progressed and since she herself admitted that he is not in love with her so she persisted because she did not want to give up all the privileges that came with being married to the man this.
Also what a void ending to show HAE GANG and SEOLRI meeting and talking as if they were old acquaintances this is done in the realm of fantasy. I would like to write and ask a lot, but I don't want to get tired.

Good story, bad acting

I have watched the first 2 instalments of the univerkada series and I liked them both mostly because of their plots that took me back to my wattpad era. The highschool/ college love, something going wrong, separating because of it only to find their way back to each other cooks up a very nice story. It's sweet and light to watch why is why I love stories like these.

while the story is good overall, the plot didn't deal properly with how ely handled her grief. Her father was violent and abusive and he is shown as the bad guy, rightfully so. But her mother had an affair with a married man. from what we know, she is part of the reason that a family broke. i don't understand why she is given such a clean slate at the end. ely constantly saying that her mother was a pure heart etc. etc. seemed like the character just swept all of the mother's mistakes under the rug because she can't handle the idea of a grey personality. a person according to her is either 100% good or 100% bad.

i liked how they didn't fix everything between ely and her dad. this closure was much more realistic. apart from that, when ely talks about the worst thing that happened to her after what her father did, she just says "i had to go to therapy because of you". in my opinion, a very awkward choice of words. the point of even saying the dialogue was to show the impact of her father's actions on her, and the entire impact was just shoved into the dustbin by summarising it with therapy. if someone has an accident, the gravity of the situation is better explained when you say "i fractured my rib and broke my arm" not when you say "i had to go to the doctor". it's almost as if the writer didn't know what might happen to a traumatised person and were too lazy to do any research.

The moments between ely and sevi were very cute and i think that those moments were probably their best acting? because most of the acting sucked. the dialogue delivery was painfully slow. or is that just how rich people talk? idk. every syllable spoken by ely was stretched for some reason. also, the crying was just...awful. there was water all over the face which looked very comical. and as much as i like hearing a character's thoughts, it was so awkward to hear ely's thoughts. it was like reading lines from a script. i preferred sevi's dialogue delivery over ely's but like her, he too doesn't know how to cry properly and his expression for most part of the series was him looking at something/someone with an eyebrow raised.

Overall, the love story is very cute and was the only thing that made me look forward to the episodes. the ost was also great. but everything else is unimpressive if not horrible.

Don't look at the rating and rush to judge, this series is much better than the number above, I don't know why it is rated so low but it deserves a rating of over 8.0. The chemistry between William and Est is very good, the two are a very nice couple and I believe they will do much better in the following episodes. This is Est's first leading role and also William's first leading role debuting as an actor besides being an idol before. Please give them a chance because this is all their first chance. You can check the positive reactions of many other directors and many others towards this series on X App. Please support these cute 2 kids and LYKN because they put a lot of effort and time in this project. 💯

A Heartfelt Tale of Friendship

One of the most striking aspects of the drama is its exploration of friendship heartbreaks, an often-overlooked theme. Friendship heartbreaks can be some of the most painful experiences, and this drama captures that emotional intensity with remarkable authenticity. The portrayal of this dynamic is brought to life by the characters Saint and Shin, whose journey of friendship is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. Their bond, its challenges, and its eventual evolution are handled with such care that it feels incredibly real and relatable.

Acting Excellence

Sky and Nani’s performances are nothing short of extraordinary. These two actors have proven their mettle by delivering some of the most emotionally charged scenes with finesse. Their ability to convey a wide range of emotions through subtle expressions and body language is commendable. At times, even without dialogue, their eyes alone communicate volumes, allowing the audience to feel the depth of their characters’ emotions.

This kind of nuanced acting is rare and speaks to the skill and dedication of the actors. Whether it’s a moment of joy, a heated argument, or a tearful reconciliation, every scene feels genuine, pulling the audience deeper into the story. Their chemistry on screen is undeniable, not in a romantic sense, but as two individuals navigating the highs and lows of a profound friendship.

Themes and Impact

What sets this drama apart is its focus on relationships that are often overshadowed in mainstream storytelling. By emphasizing the significance of platonic bonds and familial connections, it offers a refreshing perspective. It reminds viewers of the importance of cherishing these relationships and acknowledges the emotional weight they carry.

The storytelling is complemented by a well-written script, meaningful dialogues, and a narrative pace that keeps the audience engaged. The director deserves praise for weaving together the various elements acting, cinematography, and music into a cohesive and impactful production.

Final Thoughts

In a world where relationships are often reduced to romantic entanglements, this drama stands out as a genuine celebration of friendship and familial bonds. Contrary to common misconceptions, this is not a BL (Boys' Love) drama and has never been promoted as such. Instead, it delves into the profound beauty and complexity of friendships and family ties, offering a narrative that resonates deeply with anyone who has experienced the joy and pain of such relationships.

This drama is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates stories rooted in emotional depth and authenticity. It is a testament to the power of platonic relationships and the profound impact they can have on our lives. Sky and Nani’s performances elevate the narrative, making it a memorable experience that will stay with viewers long after the final scene.

In celebrating friendship and family, this drama offers a poignant reminder that love exists in many forms, and each one is worth cherishing.

For me it is a 10/10.
