I am at a loss for words. I feel like I need medication after watching this show. For my avid followers you know I hate starting anything that isn't already finished: books, movies, shows... ya know. But I have to admit, I'm not sure what it was about this show that sucked me in. When the first episode aired I was like "eh", not even sure how I landed on it or why I stayed on it instead of going to something else. I mean, I'm glad I didn't. The show turned out pretty well..... maybe just not for my sanity.
I have never followed a show so freaking close before and I used to shake my head at those who were always like "I have to be home at such-and-such time because I CAN'T miss my show!!" ..... That ended up being me. So, my apologies. LOL! Y'all have no idea how bad I wanted to do episode by episode reviews but I knew if I did that each episode review wouldn't have much except "WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?!" Don't get me wrong, this show ENDED with me screaming "What the hell was that?!"
Y'all know how Parasite won tons of awards? I wouldn't be shocked if 부부의 세계 won awards. I say this with full confidence because as I followed this show, I also followed news about it and I can honestly say these actors played their parts WAY to well. Lol From one actor getting death threats to one actress being called a whore, slut, homewrecker. You name it. Mind you, these people aren't calling the characters this - they are calling the actors themselves this. Which is so mind blowing to me. But, you know, I can't say anything because ... this show did ruin some actors for me. Lol even ones that I really loved before from previous shows. It's like when I see them, I'll always remember this show instead. Which sucks but is awesome at the same time because that just shows how good of actors they all are. If you can make people who are watching A SCREEN - forget that it is literally just a show, that is bad ass to me. But I also feel bad for the ones having to go through all of this mess right now. Hopefully people will stop and remember "this is just a show."
The storyline is so freaking basic too! I had someone ask me what this show was about and it kinda shook me because of how basic the ACTUAL storyline is but has so much (I really don't know what word I am looking for right now so PLEASE forgive me.) but there is just something there that makes it so much more in depth that it's like it reaches out and grabs you by the head and is like "lol you aren't going anywhere" even when there are times that commercials come on, you don't dare move because you don't want to miss anything.
I have screamed so much watching this show that it is almost embarrassing to admit. I can't remember the last time I was ever actually that angry and wanting justice. I also found myself unbothered by near deaths of some characters. Which is sad and kinda scary. So why am I putting this? Because if anyone reads this before or after the show and they feel that, they'll know they aren't alone. Helps to know you're not the only one.
Of all the characters, can I just put it out there that there is really only ONE likeable character? Go Ye-rim (박선영/Park Sun-young). If you really think about it, she is literally the ONLY innocent character. The one who was done so dirty and STILL maintained being the pure one. She didn't deserve what happened to her one bit and it freaking broke my heart into a million pieces.
As for the rest of the characters, they can kiss my ass. Do you know that by the end of this show I think the one character that annoyed me the most was their son Lee Joon-young (전진서/Jeon Jinseo)
**Side note here, 전진서 is literally just a kid and already under fire because of something he posted online LIKE ANY NORMAL KID WOULD DO!!! Also under fire that he was "smoking and drinking".... he kid is 13/15. Are.... are you kidding me? For one, I'm sure that is total bullshit and even if it's not, while I don't support that - do people not remember what it was like being a teenager? Holy hell teen years are so unnecessary Lol why must ANY of us have to go through that mess? So what I say is his CHARACTER, not him as a person**
When I say he was the most annoying, I do realize he was just a teenager. I remember what it was like. It was hell. You're trying to sort through your own mess, Lord knows what it does to someone to have to deal with being a yo-yo for adults to fight over. Its messed up. BUT... there were some parts in this show where all he really needed to do was sit the hell down and let the grownups do their thing.. but he decided to be a little asshole and cause MORE drama, even though it could have been handled quickly. And the sassing his mama all the time made me mad as hell. My mama would whoop my butt if I did half of what he did. Lol Close to the end I really started liking him again though... Only for it to end with me wanting to throttle him. DUDE! How can you do that to your mom?! I know you're upset, but did you have to do that?! FOR THAT LONG?! What... just.... UGH!!!! WHAT THE HELL?!?!
Don't get me wrong, I hate dang near all the characters. But the show was so good. Yet.... made me feel like I needed a xanax or something to just calm the hell down (I don't mean that in getting high, I mean like actually calming anxiety down medical meaning) I would still recommend this show. HAHA!! I don't know! OMG I don't know why I like it so much. It's like a freaking train wreck that you just can't look away from! All I can say is if you start if, I really hope you don't plan on sleeping anytime soon because you WILL get invested in it. I really hope you do. Even if the ending was anticlimactic. I feel like it could have ended so much better. It just built and built and built, it was driving me insane and then they just offered that little tibbit and I was sitting there looking at the screen like "oh hell no. That's all!?" so yeah, prepare for that Lol
I'm sure there is so much more I could talk about - but I feel like if I don't stop now, I really will keep going. Like for the friend that asked "What is it about?" I could have left it at "Cheating ass men and the women who fight like hell to keep their family together" but nooooo I had to keep going. Pretty sure I went on so long that they were probably thinking "I'm sorry I asked. Please shut up now." XD
Which I'm sure my readers are thinking the same. Lol But if you happen to watch this show, please let me know what you think!!
**Also, yes I know this is based off of Dr Foster, no I don't plan on watching that one. I think this one was enough for me. Lol**

Completely Mind Blowing!
**I watched and finished this back in 2019 and this review was taken from my blog, which has better formatting and images that go with the review. Please check it out: http://fearstreetzombiereviews.blogspot.com/2020/04/review.html **I'm coming out the gate here with a big 'ol: "HOLY SHIT!!!" If that offends you... I don't know what to tell you because this is a whole damn mood with this show! I wish I was kidding. Okay not really because this how was totally amazing and badass! Y'all, I have no idea how this show has been labeled as a flop! Whoever said that about this show is completely INSANE! There are only 10 episodes of this show and let me tell you, there wasn't a second of this show I was bored with. There wasn't a moment of "Oh I really need to go do this-this-or-this". Actually it was more of "If one more person interrupts me while I watch this, I might actually flip my lid." Pretty sure I looked like this by the ends of it all: O_O
Let's hope that's not what I really looked like though.. but let's face it, it probably was, because... what is sleep? Hahah And if you know me at all, you know this is the show I have been wanting to watch for MONTHS but could never get my hands on it, but I finally did and I DEVOURED it!! (Or did it devour me? ......?) And those that know me, know I hate mysteries/thrillers... of any kind. So for me to ̶l̶i̶k̶e̶LOVE something mystery/thriller, you know it HAS to be amazing, because I'm a purely horror kinda girl
Okay, back to the show, the acting was off the chart amazing. Y'all know me, there is always at least one person I tend to pick apart saying "Eh the acting could be better". That can't be said for this show! They ALL acted so well that I was constantly second guessing myself if I knew what the hell was going on or not. Even the most annoying character didn't get on my nerve as much as I thought he would because he was such a important character.
ougharwilughrwiuhgr UGHHH there is seriously so much I want to say but can't and that drives me nuts!!! hahah Because it was so freaking awesome!! I just want to go on and on about it. I mean EVEN THE SOUNDTRACK IS AMAZING!!! Please please if you get a chance, check out the soundtrack: H͇E͇R͇E͇. You won't regret it. The music fit the show so amazing. I admit there are a lot of movies and shows I have watched there i just roll my eyes and either say either some don't fit the show/movie, or I get mad because they add like 20 songs to the soundtrack that weren't even in the movie.
Every song here was in the show (least to my memory they were) and they all fit.
Everything about this show was such a freaking masterpiece that I'm like... WHY ISN'T THIS EVERYWHERE BY NOW?!!?! WHY IS THIS NOT TALKED ABOUT?!?!
The hype on this show is so low, it makes me want to cry.
This show is literally the KING of this genre! Fight meeeee if you think different! Lol Between the amazing actors and the setting, everything was complex and one of a kind yet... different. I'm not going to lie, shows and movies tend to have tons of "settings/locations/backgrounds" right? Kinda just... calls for it I guess? This show didn't have many setting locations, you can count them on your hands - Which brings me to this point, whoever set this up is a king. Because to be limited with places, they still knocked it out of the park while keeping ̶p̶e̶o̶p̶l̶e̶Me mind blown. I see these things. I can't help but notice and roll my eyes if someone constantly reuses a same setting through 60% of a show. Everything that usually makes me roll my eyes or kinda annoys me, didn't when it came to this show. Which is crazy to me. Sorry, I just can't hype this enough.
DUDE!!! The ending. Oh my gah the ending had me totally mind-fucked. Because I knew without a doubt that I knew how it would end. Lets face it, whether it's a book or show, when you read or what enough, you tend to just know how it will end by the middle. rhgilrghirugie That ending left me questioning my sanity because I was like "Oh! It's going to end hella different" then I was like "wait... maybe not" then back and forth.... I got tired trying to guess. hahaha That ending left me so mind-blown that I just looked at the screen like O______O 15 minutes after it was over. It's been longer now and my brain is still like: ekfjbgveirybvieuabvileuarbveiuvbfduivhbfdubvfdhyvbeiulvuqeibv
and me even writing this, I'm having to just pick words out of all this scramble and HOPE it all makes sense. If you EVER have the chance to watch this, I am actually BEGGING you to watch this. You might think I'm kidding but I'm not. This show has currently taken over my life to the point I want to keep it on repeat for the next few weeks to months. Lol Don't judge me. I can't help that I love it this much.

Disgusted and Horrified
It's not easy for me to drop a show. I hate dropping things but I honestly can NOT complete this show. If I do, I'd have to be medicated to get through it.This show looks scary, has the allure of a good story but honestly, 5 episodes in and I still don't even know the actual storyline. It feels like the story is "we're just going with it."
The first few episodes were hard to get into especially with the constant overlap of timelines which in all honesty was just annoying.... and pretty much gave away whatever happened next. So there is no mystery. But still it is one of those that you keep watching in hopes that you are wrong. Go with your gut. You're not wrong.
**Please not the following may have spoilers and also I will be talking about the assault that happened in the show**
I was already disgusted when the new teacher came on scene and was clearly grooming the MC, why I kept watching, I have no idea. Maybe in hopes the male lead or someone would put a stop to it? Of course it didn't just stop there, no. No the guy had to sexually assault her and then had the balls to smile in her face and force her to take pictures with him the next time they saw each other all because of that stupid ass poetry shit. WHICH SHE STATED OVER AND OVER SHE WANTED TO QUIT!!!!
I wanted to stop on episode 4 as soon as that happened but like a idiot, I kept watching in hopes that justice would be served. I mean come on.... something. Anything. But no. We get to episode 5 where there is the school board calling it a "misunderstanding" and blaming her mental illness saying she could have imagined it. (Are you fucking kidding me?!) Oh and him taking her to some place to be alone where he proceeds to grab her hands and pull that bullshit "can we please pretend this never happened?!" LIKE NO, YOU GROSS FUCK!!!
I just can't with this show. Everything about it is disgusting. The only horror here is grooming, assault, and victim blaming. There is no mystery, not when every scene shows a "flashback" of the ghost going through the same thing so you know what's about to happen. There's no justice, not when daddy is a higher up and can cover for your rapist ass.
Soooo yeahhhhh.... No. I won't be finishing this.

Trying so hard to control my inner dialog that is just constantly screaming at this point. Y'all.... I want to unwatch this and watch it again but... like... the process on repeat. Lol Omg I can't even cover how much I freaking loved this show! I started this show with not a lot of hope for it, honestly. But I have no idea what happened because as soon as I started it, I was stalking the dates, times, tv channel just WAITING for the newest episodes. It completely devoured my life and time -- AND I'M NOT EVEN MAD ABOUT IT!!!
If you were to ask me "okay, then what were the negative parts of the show" --literally the only thing I could say is "Kevin". Lol
I don't ... I don't understand his character. I mean I guess I get it, but why couldn't they get a better actor for him? Every time Kevin entered the view, I set the time speed to 2x because he made EVERY SINGLE scene so cringey. I also didn't understand how early in the show he didn't really know korean yet later he magicly learned a lot of words enough to keep up with everyone yet by the end, when he was talking to Myeol Mang, he didn't know half of what Myeol Mang was saying and just made shit so awkward. I don't understand the point of this. and I SWEAR Kevin's talk with Dong Kyung HAUNTS MY FUCKING NIGHTMARES!!!!! Oh mah GAH!!! I'm going to be on my deathbed and reliving that scene. I'll probably cringe myself to death at that moment. I just... man come on, don't cast this guy again. I beg you. I don't get the point. It was awful and I'm sure there were many others who could have been better.
That is really the only thing I hated about the show. I know my emotions were everywhere when I watched this and I thought half the time those feelings would be the death of me, but I love how everything worked out in the end. Even though I was pissed at Nyeo Shin through over 80% of this show by the end of it, I didn't hate her. Lol I know things had to happen the way they did for a reason but I still don't like how she made them forget each other just for them to remember each other not even a day later. It didn't make sense to me.... at the time but as I write this maybe that is what saved them in the end and made things happen the way they did. Like destiny .... as corny as that sounds lol
And I think I will stand by if you like Goblin, you'll love this show. If you loved this show, you'll love Goblin.

Don't come for me
As I am sure this review will have possible spoilers and will definitely contain unpopular thoughts, be wary.I wish I could be one of those that are so head over heels in love with this drama but I honestly feel like one of the rare ones that only finished it out for Jong-Suk. I hate I didn't love this show. It makes me feel weird. Haha But, I have to show support to one of my favorite actors, right?
Don't get me wrong, it started out pretty promising. But as it went on, it was like: stop. go. stop. go. stop. go. stop. go. It went from making me curious and keeping my attention to down right just pissing me off. I feel like I know how a cat feels now when you dangle a toy in front of them and snatch it back before they can get it.
I admit I already am not a big fan of time jumping things and I feel like this was kinda similar since they are bouncing between 2 worlds they give me headaches. But I had seen so many people talking about how amazing this show was and when people found out it was on my TBW list for soooo long, they tend to stay on me for it to be the next show I watch. Lol (I can't say anything, I do the same. Haha) but sadly this show just wasn't for me.
All of the actors were really amazing, I just feel like the storyline was a mess. Which is probably how it was meant to be but I just can't stand a messy storyline that seems like it has no idea where it wants to go so the writer makes a ton of unnecessary things happen instead of taking a break and figuring out where they want it to go. Lol
While the ending was cute, I felt like I was losing my damn mind so I couldn't enjoy it. Honestly. I haven't enjoyed a episode since maybe episode 8 or 9. Even though I felt zero connections through the whole thing. over 16 hours of screen-time and you'd think I'd feel even a slight connection to the characters. But sadly, nope. and if I had to pick a favorite character, it would probably be Do-Yoon. Weird right? Don't ask. He is the only character I could tolerate.
But also because I felt nothing; that means the parts that should have ripped my heart out either left me annoyed or "here we go again". It sucks feeling that way. There was even a part where he was dying and asking her to come get him and she was more worried as to why he didn't pick up his phone sooner... Are you kidding me? What should he say "I'm sorry I was busy getting shot and dying." Just stupid stuff like that though the show just made me want to put a fist through my screen.
Please don't come for me, I know there are a lot of people that love this show and I know how fans can get when someone talks bad about what you love. Lol This is just how I feel and I know not everyone will agree with me.

When I first heard about this movie and watched a preview, I was hooked. I have this odd obsession with 용마랜드 (Yongma Land), which I am guessing this movie is kinda based around? Not the story itself but the creepy "haunted" amusement park setting. But I mean... can we blame them?
I loved all the characters and I love how none of them were the same. It was literally a group of so many misfits that you would never guess would ever be friends. From the jock, most popular girl, the shy girl, the nerd, the guy everyone wants, the hyper kid. I loved seeing all of them together and being friends. It really wasn't expected and the charisma between them all was believable. It went against the typical nerds VS popular. I had no issues with any of the characters. Plus, you know it's a good movie when you even start liking the annoying preppy girl. Lol.
The only issues I had problems with - if you can even call it a "issue" if that.. I'm not sure who the surprise girl was and when she talked about the portal closing, it kinda threw me off and it didn't really explain what that meant. I mean given - when shes says it, of course you know but I was just kinda left with "how do you know and why is it closing *now*? ya know? I don't know. Hollywood logic I guess? Lol I look way to much into things like this.
While I didn't jump as much with this movie as I did some of the others, I still loved it and would recommend it to those looking for a scare. How can you not be? Some of the stuff that happens in this just made me want to "Kool-Aid Man" out my wall sometimes. haha
Can I talk about the ending for a second though? I didn't see that coming. From the start of the movie, I just KNEW I had it pegged. I just knew it was going to end like any other horror movie. Because they tend to end one of two ways... This one was like "lol bish, you THOUGHT!" So I give it hella props for making me go O_O at the end. Lol

Not sure what I was explaining but it wasn't that. Also not even sure what made me add this to my watch list, but me and my past self need to have a talk. For such a short show, it feels like it lasted forever. Even on mute and FF. whoever watches this any other way deserves a award or a padded room. Lmao (jk)
I don't understand why they dubbed it the way they did! It's like the hella old Chinese movies and dramas. Lol.
And I know it's not that one actors fault, but they did they keep giving him under shots of his nose? 😩 It feels like he is the only one they did that to.
I still don't know what the storyline was. The actors deserved better than this mess though. I get it's a comedy, but then the comedy lies in how the show was produced, it's not a comedy. It's a joke. 😬

Okay I might be going a little to generous with the 10 rating but everything about this show was so amazing to me. I wanted to watch this as it was airing but I knew I would drive myself nuts waiting for each episode every week. I know it took me a while to actually watch it when it was complete (don't ask why, I don't know. It just happened) lol
But once I started, I didn't want to move until it was complete. I devoured every second of this show and I thought I would know the outcome because lets face it... zombie movies and shows are pretty cut and dry when it comes to how it happens and how it ends.
Happiness took zombies to a whole new level and made them incredibly unique, which blew my mind completely. All through this show I really thought I knew where it was going only to be shocked. I mean come on, the government is never trustworthy in these shows and what happened there ... I didn't expect it. Lol but it was amazing none the less.
I still can't get over how different this show was. I mean don't get me wrong, the drama among humans were still there (as to be expected) -- I sometimes feel like the real enemies are the people. Lol usually never goes well in that area, least when "rich/power" people are involved.
I'm SO freaking glad they has Isaac Hong on this soundtrack!! I swear if he or The Vane are on the soundtrack of a show, it is guarantee for me that it will be a show that will be a roller-coaster but such a AMAZING hit that I won't be able to shut up about it for years. (I mean, I still talk about Strangers From Hell if that gives any idea how much of a fan I am. Lol) I haven't seen a show I didn't like when they were on the soundtrack. (dear life, that is not a challenge. Please don't pass me a show I will hate lol)
The actors all did a amazing job and I can't tell you how many times I wanted to reach through and slap so many of the characters. Lol Not to mention, a lot of times I forgot this was even a show, it felt like I was right there. They're all so talented and whoever casted them needs a raise because I doubt anyone could have played them better. Don't get me wrong, I hated 90% of the characters lol but lets face it, they were meant to be disliked. XD
I wish I could forget I watched this just so I can rewatch it again and experience everything like new again. I will settle for rewatching this at least 5 more times. Haha
If you have been eyeing this show curious if you should watch it, YOU SHOULD!!! This is your sign! Watch it nowwww!

Even for those who aren't Sci-Fi fans
I won't even sit here and pretend that I like Science Fiction stuff. It's one of my least favorite things ever. It is really rare that I ever like a Sci-Fi movie and I can count on my hands how many I like. LolThis movie will definitely be added to the love list though.
Space Sweepers seemed rare and unique to me. Though I'm sure active Sci-Fi fans will probably laugh at that and be like "Where?" -- that, I can't answer lol. I'm just saying for me, it's unique and I love it. I wasn't expecting to like it at all and I had seen about the show in passing but no one had actually told me I needed to watch it, (but to those that knew I was watching it was correct in saying I would love it. Lol) but I was still curious and I'm glad my curiosity won out. This show was captivating.
There were very few parts that seemed to make me zone out a bit but they didn't last very long and it was quick to suck me back in so I was glued to the screen the whole time. I loved all of the acting and I think my most favorite part about this movie was the multi-language but. This movie didn't have a single set language which totally blew my mind.
Can we just talk about how crazy it is though that there has been talk about living on Mars and then this comes out? XD
Props to the creators for being quick and hella talented to deliver such an amazing story.
If you have followed me long enough, you know I hate when movies have tons of side characters that names you may need to remember, Space Sweepers took me by surprise in having so many memorable side characters! How can so many people have such small parts but make you remember who they are?! If there was anything to say about this show, plain and simple it would be "PURE TALENT"! I can't not recommend this movie to everyone that will listen to me talk about it. Lol

I admit when I first started this show, I was not in to it -- at all. It just isn't my kind of thing, Never has been, but I had someone behind me, pushing me to keep watching and I'm so glad they did! I got hooked so fast, I felt like I was losing my mind waiting for new episodes. Lol I was so worried about this show and it's ending, I just wanted it to keep going forever.
If you have been eyeing this show, I'm telling you, YOU NEED TO WATCH IT!! There was never a dull episode (even if you're like me and it's not your thing, this show might actually change your mind). I always felt like I just got off a rollercoaster when a episode was over.
(honestly right now, my thoughts are scattered -- I just have constant screaming in my head since the last episode)
Everything about this show was unique for me and so intense! All of the characters were mastered perfectly by those who played them. It changed my views on so many actors. Like, they played their parts so well I know I need to step away and calm down for a bit. But I love that. I love when a actor plays the part so well. It just shows how talented they are!
I know some people have a issue with this har mafia guy suddenly teaming up with strangers and helping them (I questioned it at first two) but I loved seeing how cold he was at first, only for him to later really seem them as his family. I loved seeing this story progress the way it did. I get it's not for everyone, but it really made the whole show better that way. I loved that by the end, he really did pretty much have his own little mafia. Lol
I loved the comedy that was squeezed in some places to help lighten the mood when it really needed it, I don't think any of them were misplaced or pointless. I really feel like they were perfect and added more to the story. With everything going on I'm glad they had that or I think most of us would have either cried ourselves to death or had heart attacks. Hahah
THAT ENDING!! Omg. The last two episodes in general had me sobbing my eyes out. I don't even know what to say about them. There was so much raw emotion and it was .... brutal, honestly. But so worth it. I wouldn't change anything about them. But I really am curious if there will be a season 2 or not. They ended it in such a way that it could go either way. It's been a long time since I've seen a show like that. Usually it's pretty cut and dry about which way it could go but this one, they really were like "well... we might and we might not" and I can't even get mad at it because it's still a great ending. Lol All the tears were worth it!!
I'm sure I'll come back later to update this once my brain stops screaming. Haha

Yeah, let's not.
I physically and mentally can not bring myself to finish this shit show.I tried. I really tired. From the synopsis to the start of the show, I was hooked. Even with the ridiculous CGI, it was amazing. But as it went on -- the show just got worse and worse to the point it was like dragging my eyeballs across sand and broken glass. I would try multiple times to start a episode and end up cutting it off 5 minutes in (if even that)
Even then, I tried to give this show the benefit, I still tried to watch and I started noticing a pattern (mind you, i tried watching this as soon as it was airing) that any and every time views dipped, they would drop something BTS related and views would rocket again. So believe it or not, they really did use BTS and their fans for their own gain for a shitty show.
I honestly feel like this show would have tanked from the start if they hadn't seen the reaction that BTS poster gained.
-- and can we talk about that scene though?
Why would you use Spring Day? I'm disgusted they used a song for a tragedy in this show. (but the setting -- I don't care. Don't come at me. It's a show, fake. That tragedy was a real thing. And not only that, the actress didn't even know the song. I don't know what the hell she was humming/half-assed singing, but it wasn't what was playing. (Spring Day)
I'm sure to some, the show got bad ass after all the cringe, frankly, I guess I will never know. As much as I hate dropping shows, I just can't do this one. It makes me frustrated.

What was this? No... Really.... What the FUCK was this? I tried, okay. I TRIED! But I just....Say sike right now. SAY SIKE!! WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?! ROFL!!! Y'all this show was promised to have so many answers and be soooo "scary". I didn't jump once and I was more disgusted than anything. I swear the more JU-ON keeps going, the more it gets more fucking stupid and ridiculous.
*insert image of blacked out girl in window*
Lemme tell you, I rate this show ONE STAR! But for old time's sake, I gave it a 5. I think I am being to generous. I don't understand how everyone loves this show. I really feel alone with this one. Lol I get it though, everyone has their own likes and dislikes but I wish someone would make this show make sense. Nothing. And I mean NOTHING adds up. and I hate hate hate hate HAAAATE FUCKING HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE time jumping shit. With my whole chest and so much passion, I HATE THAT SHIT!! It's annoying and this made it even worse because it did this on top of no answers and gave us shitting weird things like ol blacked out girl in the previous picture. (yes, I know who it is and it still doesn't make sense.)
This show literally took the first movie and made it shitty. Made it seem like the house was "bad" and "cursed" before they even moved in which DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!! NOTHING ABOUT THIS MADE ANY SENSE!!
*possible spoiler warning*
I STG the part I hated the most was the rape scene. Who the fuck gets attacked and then decided to CLING to their attacker? NO FUCKING PERSON DOES THIS!! That one part made me hate this whole damn show and I only stuck around in hopes to get some answers that MAYBE there was justice, BUT THERE WASN'T!! She stuck with him THE WHOLE SHOW! It makes me want to vomit. And the little boy? "He was a gift to me from the house" Are.... are.... are you fucking insane? What are you talking about?
I feel so bad for that kid. I have no words.
I'm getting seriously pissed all over again. I'm sorry. Moving on--
There were so many characters. SO MANY that... had no reason to be a part of the show? And if they were, WHAT WAS THEIR REASON?! I don't get it. I'm confused, can you tell? Also edit, I can't give it 5 stars. 3. Three is the best I can do.

It's pretty much Gonjiam. The only likeable character was Jaemin (I think that was his name. The actual ghost hunter with brains)I still don't understand why they all came together? They seemed to not actually know each other but did? It's all a bit weird and up in the air for me.
While I did like the movie, them fighting at at each other's throats CONSTANTLY took so much away from the movie for me.. I would under if that happened out of fear but even from the beginning the main dude was a asshole and annoying as hell.
I don't understand the reasoning behind letting him outside to see the headstone and show no bars on the door either. That confused me..
I felt more sympathy towards all the trapped ghost. I really wonder if it would have made a difference if they attempted to unlock doors/cages. Cuz can you imagine having ghosts back you up against the main thing keeping you all there? Lol but I get it. It's just a movie and I'm looking waaayyyy to much into it. But still.
With Halloween coming up, this would be a great movie to add to your list.

I feel robbed of my time.
I've seen this movie pop up from time to time but never actually looked into it (smart). Until today when I was like "eh why not" (dumb). Saw Kim Bum was in it and instantly thought "Fuck yes! Horror AND Kim Bum, Why haven't I watched this sooner!?"*spoilers*
I felt zero connections to any of the characters. None. I mean the actors did great jobs and all, but I couldn't tell you anyone's names. I couldn't tell you shit about them other than, the females screamed. Non. Fucking. Stop. and the guys ran away.... a lot.
I didn't understand why they made it like Saw yet not. Because at least Jigsaw gave his victims time to actually save themselves or each other. This was completely pointless because as soon they were given a question to save their friend, the friend was killed. I don't understand.
I also don't understand why kill them. Even at the end, you find out they didn't have anything to do with it. but to punish(?) the parents? Are you fucking serious? And for what? They weren't even the problem.
When it showed her flashback, I feel like I was supposed to have sympathy? I didn't. I had sympathy for none of them to be honest. Except Kim Bum. Lol
No. for real, does this man ever get a happy ending? I'm officially about to be on the hunt for his happy ending in anything. X_X
I regret watching this, but hey, at least I got to see one of my favorite actors.

Holy shit this was the most toxic relationship I've seen in a while.
There was nothing cute, sweet, or happy about this in any way. I think the only thing i liked was her friendship with her best friend who didn't go to the same school. That was true friendship.
The girls she went to school with were nothing but trash. Mr "black prince" was just a scumbag.
I've never rooted so hard for a second lead before in my life and don't understand why she would pass up someone who would treat her well to be with a dude that calls you names and sees you as no more than an animal. (S&M, my ass. This is far from it)
FL wasn't likable either honestly. She had no spine and never grew one either. She was overly desperate and gosh damn this would go no where quick. Resentment in the future. Lol
Was so curious and excited to see this because the cover and plot sounded interesting........ mistakes were clearly made. Lol
