Monstar Episode 1 Reactions
I finally started it and I'm glad I did!
Se Yi is cute but how come every boy seems to be falling for her? Well I guess that's the point of the story ^^ Anyway there seems to be a lot of trouble in that school, gonna be interesting!
And what was with the ending? "Be my partner" ?! I thought he was just going to give her mobile back, but it seems like more stuff is going to happen here!

Wow this was a great first episode!
Seolchan showed the cruel reality of idols and how they are harrassed by sasaengfans, although I think those incidents were still the minor cases :( But his character is already pretty interesting and the fact that his mum left him(or so it seems) left him somehow scarred. I don't know what to think of Min Seyi yet. There are so many different characteristics mixed into her personality. And the guy called "Radio" :(( it was heartbreaking to see him being bullied by his classmates. The classpresident seems to be nice and has some authority but why doesn'T he help the poor boy?!
Whenever I thought it was getting sad they included a funny scene so the episode didn't seem sad at all :)

...I would enjoy this that much. This is really good and interesting. That whole singing in defiance scene was fantastic!!! These idol kids are doing a rather descent job acting. Who knew? :-)
I have a feeling that I'm going to be adding some music to my MP3 player.
I like the whole cartoon/anime/whatever it is called part. jeonjeog-eulo daebak!!!

This drama has started off on a strong footing and I am hoping that this continues.
The three main characters are interesting and I really like the female lead who does not come across as wimpish. Although the series is only 12 episodes long, I am really looking forward seeing how the characters grow throughout.

OK, I watch it just because of i am a beast diehard fan. I don't expect much really. but this 1st ep is really great. The story is about an idol who get into trouble and must go to school which he met a non-fan weird girl (even before he goes to school) and much less get tangled up with her. i love both main characters and surprisingly the acting doesn't look stiff or weird. and i can foresee the story will develop around the class students. we can expect it like school 2013. I can't wait to see the next ep. :)

Mind Blown! Hooked! And it only took one episode! And it all started with Min Se Yi playing and singing in the beginning. What a great episode. I love the characters/I hate some of the characters. But what I do see is a lot of kids which serious issues. I hope we get to see and hear their stories. Take from me, who never, I mean NEVER watch HS Dramas; this is it!! This is the one to see!

Somehow this seems like a mash up between School 13 and Shut Up Flower Boy Band.
I approached this drama with zero expectations (with all the idols cast) and I was pleasantly surprised. However, I can safely say the acting was somehow decent for idols and newbies (there was some off beat and weird moments but I've seen worst). Both the main characters seem like the kind u meet in every drama aka the guy is a jerk with a heart of gold and the girl is your sweet and naive girl. Surprisingly, they still sound interesting. I liked the girl, she doesn't look completely helpless and I have hope that she can stand up for herself. The drama's strength however, seem to be with the supporting characters and their back story. First episode is interesting ~ and it left me wanting for more.

The first episode was quite something. I enjoyed how the main leads met, and how he thought he knocked her over, after snatching her phone O.o
However beyond these initial meetings, the male lead went slightly cliche on me (stalking girls. really?!) and turning up as a student, and hovering outside the homeroom door, for a creepy amount of time. (yes, creepy)
I'm talking about the bit where "Radio" is forced to duet by himself, but Min Se Yi joins him in a beautiful harmony, which made me grind my teeth a little bit, because it took the poor boy being reduced to tears, for anyone to actually step up, and cause the entire room to stop laughing. The class president tried, (and I'm liking him more than the lead at this moment), but his efforts weren't exactly show-stopping.
No, that comes to the main lead, (who's still lurking like a y?rei), and his arrival causes everyone to stare at him as if he's amazing. I'm not going to reveal the last line, because I gave enough spoilers as it is.
So 10/10 for intrigue, but one point docked off because I like the second male lead more, therefore the main lead is a slight irritant. Who knows. He might grow on me (!!!)

I love Min Seyi!! She is so unique! But like always TVN dramas are great in doing unique dramas with unique characters!!
The plot is very unpredictable which gets me going. I love how it's filmend! Makes me think of Shut up flower boy band!
Anyways this drama is great so far!
Ps. I feel sorry for Radio (Don't know his name yet :S) That kind of extreme bullying is kinda realistic... but if I was there at that time I would put that dude in his place... who the heck does he think he is?! Gosh glad nothing like this happens in my school or at least in my class!!

I fell in love with min seyi's character. Though she looks like the kind that needs to be protected she can actually stand up for herself and yoon sulchan is our typical star with lot of pride yet has a good side. eagerly waiting to see the next episode :)
