Hidden Gem
I became a fan of Nanon after watching Bad Buddy, the series. In one of the interviews, the director, P'Oaf said that Nanon is well-known for doing thriller and drama series which made me question his acting abilities and lead me to The Gifted, the series. Also, there is Gun, Sings, Victor, Fiat, and Jane here as well here so made me more intrigued to watch, and oh boy am I glad that I did.
The storyline is amazing. The plot twists at every turn were always keeping me on my toes. It was hard to not watch the next episode cause the story kept you engaged throughout. The first few episodes, where each main character had his/her own introduction were fascinating and then the end where it followed Pang was amazing too. Even though most schools are not divided by the class system like in this story the treatment however is the same. In many schools, the students who are already smart or talented are given priority and attention by the teachers whereas the average ones are left as they are. Sadly, schools do not give attention to the students that need that time. Every student has potential in some way or another but most are left to the dirt and we see only a few succeed. This is a very sad but true reality of the world and it is highly disappointing.
Honestly, am one of the people who was waiting on the storylines for the twins as well but they hardly had any lines in the series. I want to see a drama with both of them and both are the main actors. They are talented, funny, and good-looking. The acting was spectacular, especially Gun. He is a phenomenal actor. The way he acts and his facial expressions are mesmerizing. He is such a versatile actor. I am used to seeing him with Papi so this was refreshing to see him in a different light where has a girlfriend and is the protector instead of being protected. All around just adds to his personality and versatility.
Nanon is another brilliant actor. He is also really good with his facial expressions and getting the audience to feel what he feels and really relate to him. His character Pang is someone most of us can relate to as someone who is not good at their studies and just feels misunderstood most of our lives.
Jane (Clair) was super as well, especially in the scene in the theatre where her video was leaked and she was frantic to get everyone to stop watching. We all have something or the other that we do not want the world, especially our loved ones to know and the way she tried her best was commendable. I really didn't like her character till that scene and after that, I empathized with her and she got better and better after that.
Wave and Korn were also characters that I could relate to as well. Both of them just wanted someone to love them or be friends with them but they got betrayed by the 1 person they trusted the most. That is heartbreaking. All they want is love and they were the ones who were hurt the most.
Mon was another loveable character. She is the strongest of them all and her action scenes were beautiful to watch. I wish they could have shown her kick down that door when Wave locked them all in the auditorium. That would have been so cool.
Overall, this is an amazing series. Ful 10/10. Next is The Gifted: Graduation. Hope that is just as good too.
