Bitch X Rich (2023)

this didnt go that well um.
so i binge watched it cuz mini series and i was very excited to watch the series cuz i love thrillers. this started well and was going well too and even paced up a bit in the last few episodes but it ended with a cliffhanger and rhat was my last straw.
and i have to say it yeri's acting is not that good (ofc nobody is perfect and given she is just starting her acting career she has so much room for improvement and i would love to be on the same journey with her)
the drama was very fast paced and i shouldve known it ends on a cliffhanger that was my res flag but i ignored my red flag but still the thriller was good so ill hope the next season is just as good if not better than this ine cuz i really wanna know what happens next. (if they dont do a season 2 im suing)
ps - lee so mang is my new loml.

?keep watching till you reach the end of the story

How do I like this story?
It is necessary to see that when you see, do you feel that you are diving without any hindrance or not?
If you ask me I can say without hesitation I loved it and also the soundtrack music is amazing.

Soundtrack music is the heart of the TV series.
"Crystal" by Kris and "Dit it Myself" by Kid Milly bring the entire sequence of episodes to life.

Following are few lines that came to my mind while listening to music while watching the series.

--Kid Milli - Did It Myself | Bitch X Rich--
? i dream of conquering you
In the day i see life is same
i conspired to defeat you
you lose i win
i have the same pain again
i made your accusation my retribution
i have the same pain again
i blamed fate
i forgot the meaning of life?

--Kriz - CRYSTAL | Bitch X Rich--
?They say life is beautiful
Your smile is lovely, people also say this.
Then it all becomes an excuse.
when the heart is lost in love

More like BORING X BORING...

I'm writing this review because I was really disappointed. The biggest two reasons why I'm disappointed are:

a) description of the show sounded interesting! But when you start watching is like watching some dumb show where someone pretends to be rich, and they're not even smart about how they pretend to be rich. Hello??? If you put pictures online for everyone to see of course people will figure out you're lying.

If not anything else - at least 1 person at your school knows where you live, knows who your parents are, where they work... if you become popular on social media even people who are not from your school can see what you're posting and can call you out on your bulls*it.

b) roles should be given to actors that are able to play a character well, roles shouldn't be just given to someone because they're an idol. Of course some people started as idols and became actors later on... some of them became great actors... but not every idol can be an actor. I always LOVE BAD CHARACTERS, because they make things interesting. And not everyone can pull off a b*tchy/bully role. I'd say you'd need quite alot of experience or just be naturally talented to pull off bad characters. I like Red Velvet as a group... but then I see people commenting how much Yeri improved and I'm like... did we watch the same show... or you're just saying that because RV is your bias group? If an actor who plays a bully makes you hate them, then you know they were amazing at their role. Yeri didn't make me feel anything.



I had to watch this on 1.5x speed. The start of this show is honestly boring and quite dumb. But not dumb in a good way, because some shows are dumb but entertaining.

Which rich person would just let you in their house to wait for someone... IN THEIR ROOM FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME? I'm not saying dramas must be realistic, but at least make it make more sense,

Even me - I'm not rich or poor but I wouldn't let anyone to wait in my room while I'm not there so they can go through my things.

Main character is not even likeable enough to root for her or to feel bad for her. I wasn't impressed by her acting eaither. It was just watever.

Whenever Yeri (Jena) acted "b*tchy" I just did not believe it. I'm sorry but no. It's not just about telling your lines... I think Yeri's face expresion just looked like she is extremely bored. She is supposed to be a bully as well... but personally for me... her "bullying" is even worse than her b*tchy lines... if she wants such role I think she needs way more experience.

I dropped this series after ep 4.

Honestly not worth my time. Not even on 1.5x speed.

Good concept but fl ruined it for me.

I do understand the concept, and it's quite intriguing. However, I must admit that the female lead did get on my nerves a bit. While I appreciated her confidence, I found her tendency to lie and her reactions to certain situations a bit annoying. For instance, her reaction to the guy she had just met liking someone else was a bit over the top. I can empathize with feeling upset or sad, but he never explicitly expressed any interest in her, and her refusal to help another girl, because of this, felt rather uncompassionate (you'll get it if you watch the show).

Moreover, the storyline seemed to jump around a bit, which left me feeling somewhat disoriented about what was happening. There's actually more I could say, but I aimed to keep this review short. As of now, I'm uncertain whether I'll continue watching the series.

A Twisted Tale of Power, Betrayal, and Shocking Character Evolutions

it started off slow but caught my attention within 20 minutes.
first of all, YERI!! she is meticulous with her work. her portrayal as BAEK JENA couldn’t have been done better by anyone else. she was a total b*tch in the first episode, but I was rooting for her, lmfao. baddie for real. I LOVE HER, I love her. she has this magnetic presence that makes you root for her, even when she's being ruthless. she completely owns the role, and I can’t imagine anyone else doing justice to it like she does.

kim hye in (fl), uhh, she was dumb asf at first, making the most nonsensical decisions, but the writers absolutely nailed her character development in the last two episodes. it’s almost like they were intentionally setting her up to frustrate us in the beginning, only to surprise us with her growth. I don’t know how she managed to top her tests and yet made the stupidest decisions in the early episodes. it was a bit hard to believe, but I guess they needed to show her transition from clueless to calculated.

no comments about do eun. that guy gives me the ick. I can tell he’s hiding something. he’s definitely no innocent, for all I can say.

SO MANG <333 i love him, he’s adorable. even though he had very little screen time, he stood out. I wish we had more of his character in season 2, hopefully exploring more of his backstory.

the mistress?? never expected her to be evil omg. that twist was crazy, and it made me feel so bad for jena. I totally get where she’s coming from now. she’s not just a villain; she’s someone who’s been deeply hurt.

i want to know more about yulhee. she’s so mysterious and interesting asf. they gave her just enough screen time to make us curious, but I need to know more.

si yeon is such a well-written character tbh. I hate her with a passion, but that’s what makes me respect the actress even more. she gave me weird vibes from the start, but I never imagined she would have instigated everything. her complexity makes me love how the writers built her. I’m dying to know more about her and jena’s shared history and why she acted the way she did.

and lastly, kim hye in, the root of all the causes. never in my life did I expect her to be evil as well. like what?????????? why would you do that? it completely flipped the narrative for me, and now I need season two even more.

SEASON TWO WILL BE SO MUCH BETTER I CAN NOT WAITTTTT.

Loved it!

The storyline overall was well written and it progressed at a moderate pace. I wasn't too overwhelmed by the story progression and didn't feel like it was rushed. I loved Je-Na's character as she represented a more honest character who spoke HER truth regardless of who was offended. I also admired how Hye-In, regardless of economic status, happened to be the type of person that Je-Na respected and expected people to act. In all, in a world of pretentious teens, Hye-In stood out to her for her honest and controversial actions.

This is to remind everyone, that not all characters need to be good. I loved that our FL wasn't and she was an opportunist who would do whatever it took to level up in life. One thing about the story though, that could get other viewers annoyed was the fact that they constantly withheld information from the audience which they revealed later with dramatic flare. However, the plot stood out and impressed me.

não tenho nem um titulo para dá, só alerta bomba

eu me enganei muito achando que seria uma high school clichezinha e boazinha de ver até porque é poucos episódios e pouca duração, mas acho que acabou virando o maior problema da serie...

nenhum personagem é legal ou interessante você fica bem 'tanto faz'' com o que vai acontecer e as coisas não tendo explicações ou só resolve e quando resolve não explica ou nem mostra direito e tudo muito porco

que roteiro porco e preguiçoso e o final pegando continuidade? zero motivos, espero que não tenha
não vale a pena atuações a baixo da media também.

confuso, mas bom

Gostei. Vi muita resenha negativa, talvez começaram o drama esperando muita coisa, daí caíram do cavalinho. É bem interessante, a cada episódio você está torcendo por alguém diferente ou xingando alguém diferente. Não tem essa de torcer pra mocinha e querer a morte da vilã, até porque nesse k-drama não tem nenhuma mocinha (talvez, só a amiga da prota) só tem personagem podre aqui. Enfim, espero que tenha uma 2° temporada porque o final terminou SUPER aberto, que foi um dos motivos pra eu não dar um 10 pro drama. P.s: dou 10 pra qualquer programa que me mantém entretida, então não acho que minha opinião valha para alguém que é bastante crítico kkkkkkkkkk

A premissa inicial de Bitch X Rich me lembrou um pouco Boys Over Flower. Uma garota pobre recebe uma bolsa de estudo em um colégio de elite após testemunhar um suicídio no colégio. Mas as semelhanças acabam por aí, pois Kim Hey In não tem nada a ver com a Jan Di. Aliás, na verdade, ela é uma personagem bem antipática ao primeiro olhar.

No colégio onde originalmente ela estuda, Hey In começa a mentir para seus colegas sobre ser rica postando fotos com objetos de luxo nas redes sociais. Para isso ela usa o quarto e objetos pessoais de uma garota rica para quem ela dá aulas de reforço. Porém, quando sua farsa é descoberta pela garota, esta passa a humilhá-la até que Hey In farta das humilhações decide se vingar jogando literalmente um balde de água fria nela na entrevista de admissão no prestigiado colégio Cheongdam. O que obviamente termina muito mal para Hey In. Depois ela tenta fazer com que o diretor admita a garota no colégio e é assim que ela acaba presenciando um aparente "suicídio", ela viu que tinha mais alguém na cena. Assim, o diretor oferece uma bolsa de estudos para calá-la.

Kim Hey In poderia ser a nova vítima perfeita, só que ela não é. Estou gostando desta nova tendência dos dramas escolares onde a mocinha não é tão altruísta e boazinha, mas também tem personalidade duvidosa, pois assim quando ela leva na cabeça, ela revida. Inicialmente não tinha gostado da protagonista, mas depois de ver ela enfrentando todos no colégio de igual para igual passei a simpatizar com ela e inesperadamente acabei gostando bem mais do drama do que achei que gostaria no início.

Os 10 episódios do drama solucionam em parte o mistério do "suicídio" e quem foi o responsável, porém termina num suspense que sugere uma segunda temporada. Gostaria muito que essa segunda temporada se tornasse realidade pois muitos subenredos ficaram em aberto e tiveram dois grandes ganchos para uma continuação. Torcendo para ver isso!
