If you are looking for a simple drama with comedy and romance maybe this is for you, but i would recommend you to turn off your brain.

This story like someone wrote in the comments, didn't know what story it wanted to tell and ended things..weird, maybe that's because the directing -sorry Cha Tae Hyun-. At first i didn't know this was suposed to be like a sitcom for the amount of guest actors the had each episode. the comedy part was fine but the romance part felt so wrong.

There is no character development, the characters have no depth, so when the drama wanted to be more dramatic they failed, and i never figured it out whom were suposed to be the important characters untl the end -there were only 2 important characters-.

And that leads me to other problem, the casting, Yoon Shi Yoon acting like Yoon Shi Yoon he was quite enjoyable until the drama focused on him, then he was annoying and his acting was exagerated ,Lee Se Young is beautiful but she cant act and seriously she is not comedy material the girl was awkward to watch, thats why i coudnt like those characters. The rest of the cast is good especially the olders, i mean chae Tae Hyun, Yoon Son Ha,Lee Duk Hwa made me finished this drama because of how good they are in their roles that made me love their characters.

The music , they wasted the opportuny to show something memorable like in Repply 1997

Is not part of my plans to rewatch this drama, not even for some actors.

Overall this is far to be one of the best dramas of the year, really unrealistic in many aspects ... i mean Lee Ji Hoon is too good to be real.

I think this drama is acceptable in its own genre, certainly i was interested because the high raiting and the actors, but i think all is overrated about this drama, if you compare with other dramas their actors and their story, i mean the story is fine but slow and boring in some parts, even if you compare this with dramas like dream high, monstar o Shut up flower boyband those dramas of some of them are more attached to the reality of young people, the characters in school 2013 some of them are interesting, like Go Nam Soon, Park Heung Soo, Oh Jung Ho and his friends and Kang Se Chan, the other characters are kind of annoying, about the acting i only want to say that Lee Jong Suk is better in I Hear Your Voice,in my opinion the writers could develop the story and characters in a more realistic way but they failed, this isn't one of the worst dramas that I've seen, but isn't one of the best... is acceptable and only if you truly like the genre, the actors. like almost everyone here.

I started to watch this drama because of reviews that said it was the best medical drama out there, I don’t know if it’s the best, but it’s certainly entertaining , is fast paced and doesn´t get stuck in one point of the story.
The word "romantic" I think it suits the drama, the story is about the romantic ideas of what it is to be a doctor vs the reality, all this sounded very good and would have been better if the story had been better written, the Drama is full of clichés and inconsistencies and doesn’t go deep enough in all these emergency cases in which there are important issues like life and death as well as the ethics of a doctor that might have been important if it would have been treated in a more realistic way, it only mentioned these issues superficially and worse still ends up giving moral lessons, "family is the most thing important even if they despise you" "If you are ambitious, you have a very pure motivation or a very perverse one "and so many more lessons taken from makjang dramas. The romance in this story wasn’t really necessary, and it was only interesting in the first episode, the drama about Professor Kim’s past and the rivalry for power with Do Yoon Wan it was interesting at times but it was exactly the same as in other korean medical dramas. The best part was the medical part, really well done but it was a bit unrealistic since at one moment they had 2 patients and little staff and 5 episodes later they had 3 more doctors and 20 patients with very specific diagnoses (I mean…. How?)

I saw that everyone liked the performance of Han Seok Kyu as Professor Kim, but I was more surprised by Yoo Yeon Seok as Dr.Kang the only character I found to be more realistic who faces his ambition, his romantic ideas every now and then And his ethics during almost all the drama, the only character with a real development. Jin Kyung as the nurse Oh, Seo Eun Soo as the resident as well as Han Seok Kyu I thought their performances were good, the other supporting actors I think they also did a good role, my only problem was Seo Hyun Jin with her exaggerated acting in almost all episodes, her character had nothing interesting except her past but she could have done much better, the drama could have been better with another actress or without this character, I don’t know how she went from Another Miss Oh to this Lousy performance.

Kim Hye Soo was definitely the greatest actress of this drama, she only appears in the last episode, I don’t know how the producers didn’t hired her for the entire drama, she was the best thing that this drama had and o she only was in a few scenes, if you haven’t seen the special episode I recommend you to see it only for her.

Honestly, I don’t remember the music. I would rewatch this drama although maybe not all episodes, and just because I enjoyed almost all the medical stories.

If you are looking for an enterteiment drama, no matter ilogical situations and ridiculous characters, this is the right one.
The pacing in this drama is really good, some twists are good, and the characters are just the way they are, you can hate them or love them. (personally i just hated almost all, like detectives, especially Soo Ji).
The story is nothing new, is about revenge and justice, is full of cliches, full of plot holes, at the begining the main theme is revenge and justice, in the midle is corruption and politics, and at the end is about...*rolling eyes*...secondary characters their stupid desitions and the impact in the whole story, so don't expect nothing for the end, the writers/ director/producers complicated a story that could have had a much better conclusion.

The acting is not bad, but the cast could have been done better and i´m talking about Lee Shi Young, i feel like she wasn´t the right for the role the drama needed, a more complete actress capable of make her character simpathize with the viewers like Hwang Jung Eum in Secret or Lee Boo Young in I can hear your voice. The other actors i think they fit their roles Kim Young Kwang has an inusual character,but i really enjoyed Key, Kim Seul Gi and Shin Dong Wook, Kim Tae Hoon was a litlle bit disapoiment in this.

The music is diferent even if there are only two songs, i enjoyed them.

Someday maybe i will rewatch some episodes in the middle only because they were so enterteining.

Finally a well done BL comedy

For me this is the best BL drama of 2021 and i´ve watched a lot or at least the most popular ones (included Lovely Writer and ATOTS) , is a solid comedy bl, the script was okay, the acting is good so that means the directing is good too, there is no movie or series with a good acting and bad directing, both are conected, unless the cast included Meryl Streep.

Is a feel good comedy since the begining til the end, that consistence is rare to see in dramas these days even in korean ones.
The main characters have intersting personalites and they´re definitely not two dimensional, you can see their good and bad or flawed side, so when people said "GMMTV" ruined some character just sounds ridiculous to me because every character made mistakes and show humanity during the whole show, Pi being insecure, Mork being too insistent, Duean being inmature, Meen being naive. But it was cool to see that, there.

I feel taht this Show had a lot of references of popular culture, and even tought i couldn´t catch all, were used in a fun and interesting way.
About the editing for me it was okay, i mean, ther wasn´t unnecesary scenes, the pace wasn´t boring like in other dramas, and IDK so much in this field so for me the cut was fine.

The music is really good, fun and fresh here.

And finally i definetly could watch this any time, in a sad day ofor after being so busy just to feel good and change the mood.

If Cats Disappeared From The World is a movie about meaning of life and death, through the Sato Takeru´s character, who meets the devil and has the oportunity to change his sad destiny.

So based on that premise the movie is suposed to have a powerful story, and there is when the movie fails, the story have wonderful moments, but are only a few moments, so overall it feels too long and too slow and not really memorable.

The visual effects, the photography and the cast are really good, the characters are enjoyable i liked Sato Takeru, i think he is a great actor.

So if you really wanna cry with some story based on the same theme, life and death, i would recomend you to watch Boku No Ita Jikan (is a drama not a movie), but if actually you cry for everything, then maybe this movie is for you.

Un drama ligero, entretenido y sin pretensiones

Empecé a ver este drama por casualidad mientras estaba a mitad de este complicado semestre en la escuela, porque me apareció un clip en Instagram en donde Tine entra por primera vez en el dormitorio de Sarawat y lo encuentra durmiendo, ese clip me dio mucha risa y me motivó a ver este drama.

Cabe aclarar que no tenía expectativas y no sabia realmente como estaba conformado el cast ni tenia bien claro de que se trataba, a continuación explico mis impresiones.

Historia:

Teniendo en cuenta que la mayoría de historias BL que he visto o tienden a ser algo melodramáticas o que son demasiado fantasiosas, 2gether me parece que tiene una historia refrescante.
Un estudiante promedio universitario de primer año (Tine) que empieza a ser perseguido por un chico abiertamente gay (Green) busca ayuda en un estudiante popular (Sarawat) para que lo ayude haciéndose pasar por su novio y así deshacerse de Green.
Una premisa que puede sonar algo fuerte pero que haciendo uso del humor Tailandes logran sortear de buena manera ,aunque la historia está basada en una novela si se logra ver inspiración en elementos de drama coreano de comedia, como los momentos entretenidos y chistosos, un poco de melodrama, y un poco de clichés por aquí y por allá, lo suficiente .

Cast y Actuaciones:

Los actores principales me parecen que están bien, aunque si se nota la poca experiencia actuando en la pareja principal lo hacen decentemente, Win tiene muy buen timing como actor de comedia y Bright pues es lo suficientemente atractivo como para estarse fijando en su actuación, el resto del cast lo hacen muy bien, se nota la experiencia que tienen, el grupo de amigos de Tine se siente como un grupo real de amigos universitarios a esa edad, no por nada uno de ellos va a ser el rol principal en otro drama BL.

Musica:

Tiene un buen soundtrack , la música de Scrub y las referencias indies están bien integradas a la historia.

Rewatch Value:

Al ser un drama ligero y con momentos tan cómicos es muy MUY fácil de ver, mientras esperaba los últimos capítulos lo volví a ver y no es para nada tedioso como otros del mismo genero.

No tiene la calificación perfecta para mi, porque concuerdo en que la historia se cae en los últimos dos capítulos, se nota que o les faltaron grabar mas tomas y escenas o fue un problema de de dirección así como edición y no supieron seleccionar bien las escenas para cerrar la historia y no se perdiera el hilo en la historia.
Pero leyendo comparaciones dela novela y el drama, creo que el drama supera a la novela, en el drama logran representar la atracción entre dos personas del mismo sexo como algo natural y no como parte de un fetiche como en la novela.
