Loved the cast, liked the music, later started to hate the script
My 100th drama completed.
I started this drama because I loved Wang Yuwen in Novaland 2 and I wanted to watch Xiao Zhan as a lead in one of his earlier dramas before watching The Untamed.
Music:
This drama started of really good. Gave me serious old (early 2000's) American (abc and Disney) drama/movies vibes, mostly because of the music, as well as Moorim School. But then after around 13 episodes it went downhill. The theme song changed first off all, and it no longer had good background music, if any background music at all. And the music was one of the best parts of this drama.
Acting:
The acting was great and I find it amazing how all the ML's were from X nine, the entire boy group is in this drama and they were all really good at acting. It also explained the really good chemistry between the male leads.
I've watched the FL before on Novaland so I know she's not a bad actress. And she wasn't. I just didn't like her role. Out of a school full of people with superpowers, why does this girl have no powers? Why is she the most useless and helpless character in the entire drama? I just didn't like this about her character. I thought that she, like in Novaland, would grow stronger as the series goes on, but she really doesn't.
Comedy:
The only other good thing about this drama was the comedy. The script wasn't that great, sometimes plain awful. But the comedy was consistent and made a really cringe scene, or serious scene funny. Some of the characters did some seriously stupid stuff, if it weren't for the whole comedy aspect, especially with the villains, then all the characters would have just been plain annoying. There's a line between being comedically stupid and being annoying stupid and this drama did great on the first.
Plot:
The plot started off really good and seemed like it would go somewhere. But at the end it didn't really go anywhere, at least where the FL was concerned. The plot completely changed directions less then halfway through the drama, it was going one way and then I lost the plot because they got some random plots out of nowhere. It wasn't that the plot was bad, it was just executed badly. Important events that should have taken more of the story, took about an episode or less.
Ending (Possible spoilers):
Somehow this drama was both too long and too short. The episodes are less then 20 minutes each (excluding the intro and bts), and yet it still felt too long because it got really boring. But it was short in the sense that the ending, when the story finally got somewhere in the last episode, wasn't really explained, it seemed out of nowhere and went against the entire plot of the show. Characters that had certain goals, especially the villains, suddenly just stopped.
