I’m not sure but here’s my take
I don’t think the boy was in love and I don’t think either man was gay. The boy didn’t want to be in the play to begin with. Then the man embarrassed him in front of everyone and wanted him replaced. The boy learned about the man’s method acting and decided to show the man how he could do the same thing and how well he could act. All the things he did seemed to tie in with his character. The hanging went a little far but he knew he wouldn’t die and really scared the man. The man got played. Unfortunately, the man, although he loved his wife, did fall for the boy somewhere along the way. Mid-life crisis I guess. Very clever story.Was this review helpful to you?
Really Good
I’m sorry but the reviews are just not accurate, for me at least. I really liked this short series. The actors all did an excellent job. They brought me to tears several times. And, the Grandmother! She was amazing. So kind and understanding.The story was very interesting and I didn’t feel bored at all.
Chin - he had a tough background and he didn’t know how to interact with people. Ohm was perfect for this role. And, so handsome!
Peach - was a ball of energy! Loved his interactions with his grandmother! He was the only person that could see exactly what Chin needed in his life.
Guy - watched this after My Stand In. That show is one of my top favorites. So, I loved him in this. He had some ups and downs but he came out good in the end.
Oab - what a great emotional actor.
Atom - I laughed my head off at him. He wasn’t afraid to speak his mind.
Tawan- lord, who is this cutie? Hope we see him around more.
I’m tempted to give this a 10 but will give it a 9 as I would have liked a little less drama and a little more fun and happiness.

Slow for me
Wow, what a beautiful cast of men. I loved their uniforms, hair, the sword fighting, and dancing! But their makeup was the worst I have ever seen in a series. The acting was good. The music was good. The story was a little lacking.First off, I’m not really a Park Seo Joon fan. I don’t know why. He’s handsome and talented but he just doesn’t appeal to me. I also did not like the female lead. Their scenes were boring.
I’m a huge Park Hyung Sik fan and he was just gorgeous (except for the makeup). And, wow, does he dress up nice! In some way, I felt like the script did him an injustice and made us doubt him at time when he was totally capable. But loved the ending!
Not a nail biter but not terribly bad either.

Cute
This was very typical GMMtv and I loved it. Nothing spectacular happened and no real drama but there were some cute couples and funny scenes. Pond and Phuwin are one of the cutest couples.This series actually had 4 couples and 3 friends. So, the series included 11 boys. That’s a lot! I never really felt much romantic chemistry (maybe from Pond and Phuwin) but the rest just came across as good friends. I was most surprised about Satang. His character was completely different than his character in My School President. He’s a good actor. And I couldn’t get enough of him saying “P’Q”!
Thailand is so beautiful and there were some gorgeous places they travelled to.
Watch this if you want fun and no drama.

Good but not Great
Well, it took me months to get through this. I think there are two reasons. 1) I saw the original early on when I first discovered K-Dramas. It’s old now but still can’t be beat. 2) The female lead, Gorya, was super annoying. She was screaming like every 5 minutes. I actually liked Lita so much better.As for the rest of the cast, I loved all of them. The F4 boys were perfect. Bright was great. He showed a huge range of acting skills. He was especially funny when he would get words wrong.
This was a great production by GMM-TV. They always put out great quality. I do recommend it.

Rollercoaster Ride
This started out interesting, slowed down, got emotionally disturbing, then downright insane.I ended up liking this and all of the effort the boys put into making this. My biggest problem with this was the confusion caused by constant flashbacks. I had a hard time keeping the timeline straight.
Let me say this made me cry so hard. I had strong emotions about each and every actor in this series. Whether it be love, hate, pity, or utter contempt. I usually cry pretty easily while watching emotional series but never have I been driving home from work and thought about what I had seen and burst out crying in the car.
I don’t know that I can recommend this to anyone. I’m still traumatized and don’t really wish this on anyone else. Maybe you are tough enough to handle it.

interesting concept
This series has an interesting concept. The actors were good. The story went a little slow for me. The ending was sad and happy. I thought too much time passed and he should have moved on. But I guess he was an introvert and had trouble meeting people. He just kept thinking about his robot and wouldn’t let him go. Glad he was happy in the end.Overall, the series is interesting enough to give it a watch. This concept was very interesting. If this was a possibility in real life, I’d order one today.

Pleasantly Surprised
I literally picked this to watch based on the picture. They were so cute I thought I’d give it a shot. I am so happy I did.Shibata has a heart of gold and just can’t help but do what she can to help the other person. Her downfall is that she is so kind that she can’t recognize when someone is trying to take advantage of her.
The story and the relationships that follow is one of the funniest I’ve seen. Laugh out loud funny. These actors are great. There was a love triangle but it all worked out.
I gave this a 9 only because I really wanted a little more romance. But totally worth your time.

One bad apple…
Wow, I was not expecting this from GMMTV.The quality was up to their typical standards but the script! Awful! It started out cute but then the main couple spent the rest of the series fighting with each other. There was misunderstanding after misunderstanding!
And neither one would talk. Ugh. Pawin was just depressing. When they finally got together there was zero chemistry and almost cringey to see them together.
The side couples were great. And I liked all the side stories. But that main story was just boring and depressing. I thought Marc’s acting was good and he did a great job with the storyline about his mother. I just really didn’t like Pawin. But looks like he may be out of a job anyway.

I loved this
Contrary to the low opinions, I loved this series! Was this perfect? No. Was all the acting great? No. Was I glued to it? YES!This series was like nothing I have ever seen before. It gave you a glimpse into the lives of actors and the acting industry. Lots of drama… friendships, hooking up, love, backstabbing, manipulation, murder, revenge, etc. The list goes on and on. I never knew what would happen next and I loved it.
Most of the actors were great. Too many to name them all but I especially liked Gun and Korn. Both are cute and good actors. Also, Weha and Wayu made such a cute couple.
I’m not exactly sure why they would cast Leo in the role of Pitch. He’s not that talented. Plus, he’s not attractive enough to have two men fighting over him. Maybe give him a cuter hairstyle?? He just wasn’t that believable to me. Then, strangely, he just disappeared in the whole last episode.
I don’t know why the reviews say it was confusing. I wasn’t confused. It was like any other mystery. It’s so good. Sin’s story had me in tears! There were many twists and turns with the relationships in the house and you never knew who could be trusted. The ending was surprising.

This was super cute
Some Japanese characters can be a little over the top which is what Toki is. But, instead of cringy, I thought he was super cute. Sahara was enamored with his cuteness.All the lead actors in this series are very pleasing to the eye! Sahara - oh my lord.
The story itself included lots of stories about their past which made their relationship work.
Even though Sahara was a teacher and Toki a student, they waited patiently for graduation.
This is very fun, light, and enjoyable. Good watch for a binge type of day.

Short and Sweet
I thought this was a cute and sweet little story. it was a quick and easy watch.The leads were both attractive and their opposite personalities made it interesting. Sometimes I have a hard time with opposites being believable but this time they just looked so natural and perfect for each other.
There was a little drama with an ex coming back and a demanding mother but it wasn’t overdone and drawn out. In fact, I loved seeing Liu Li’s sassiness come out!
This was worth the watch if you are looking for something light and sweet.

Cute but turned Confusing
This was so cute and I loved this until up to about episode 10. Then we went back in time to try to explain the curse. But, they scrambled up the flashbacks in a way that I didn’t know what was happening. You saw the same scene over and over but they were always in a different order. Left me dazed and confused.I guess it had a happy ending but it wasn’t satisfying. Left a lot open. The biggest thing was they never cleared up the misunderstanding. Not spoken anyways.
I couldn’t hate the villain because he wasn’t a mean person, just heartbroken.
Cha Eun Woo needs different roles. He’s so cute and talented but he always has that same sad face with no expression. I would think he’d get tired of that.

Extremely Confusing
12 stories. I liked some of them and said WTH on the rest. Some of the storylines and editing were so bad that I couldn’t even tell you what happened. As others have said, for only two episodes per story, they wasted a lot of time on flashbacks.These stories covered a wide range of human emotions and difficult situations. Some of the episodes I cried my eyes out. I think the writers were going for grabbing the viewer’s emotions but, honestly, they did not tell all the stories clearly. At the end of a few, I asked myself “what just happened?”. This series could have been so much better. The ideas behind the stories were good and nothing I have ever seen before. Just executed poorly.
Overall, I’m not mad that I watched it. It had a few good points. The actors did a good job.

Mostly Fun
I love these variety shows where you get to know the celebrities and their real personalities, not just what their agencies want you to see.All of these celebrities were very nice people deep down. They played the game but didn’t hold any grudges. Laughed through the pain!
SeungGi - variety show master
HeeChul - hilarious
BoAh - beautiful yet calculating
NaRae - smart but annoying
JiWon - Mr Cool
Kai - cute and sweet
Most of the games were fun. The real estate purchases stretched into two episodes and got really boring. Fast forwarded through this.
The island was just beautiful and it must have been a great place to spend a week.
The ending was really weird how they left separately and the whole ATM thing. Also left NaRae on the island and a strange person watching through the cameras. Maybe NaRae stays for another season? Hope not.
