Akin to Reality
What a good hit of reality. It accurately depicted the nature of competition in any field but specifically the Influencers one.PGY was totally fitted to the role, so much so that the line between reality and fiction blurred. Besides her almost all of the cast contributed equal in making the series true to its intention.
One could see that absence of any one of the character would have sunken the ship.
There were No plotholes to be found.
Despite those there were certain scenes with not much plot development, mostly scenes of Mr. Han with Ms.Yoon. The reason might be because we were being introduced to their past and while their story wasnt pivotal to the series it's existence did make the series whole.
All signs of a well produced, great screenplay Drama.

Intense war along the way but ending was tame
The script is extremely well written, most of its dialogues are very detailed and able to live up to its tension. The pacing is great and the storyline spreads out incredibly, the social media war was well thought out and it's quite informative on how the social media business works behind the scene, the main lead who starts from the bottom and eventually becomes a vigilante that purges everyone else stepping in her way. Every trick and stunt in the luxury market reflects on the current society where humans are divided into rankings or levels, it's all highlighted with contrasty cinematography like a wide spectrum of colors. It's just that the ending is a little tame and expected when the war was fought so intensely along the way, but overall it is already one of the better kdrama this year.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Comencé a ver Celebrity porque había visto muchos comentarios en Instagram y no sabía qué ver y decidí darle una oportunidad. La verdad es que comencé a ver este drama sin ninguna expectativa y me voló la cabeza…y prácticamente hice un maratón porque el drama está organizado para eso con los finales de capítulos tan impactantes que tiene…no puedes hacer otra cosa que darle a “Siguiente capítulo”.
La trama se basa en contar la parte “oscura” de las redes sociales y principalmente de las celebridades que se forman a partir de las redes sociales.
La verdad es que me gustaría comentar mucho más pero voy a contenerme por no dar ninguna pista sobre ella. Solo digo que si os apetece una serie de actualidad y con muchos giros, os animo a todos a ver Celebrity.

Something wrong somewhere
Not gonna lie, it got on netflix's top list made me watch the show and the trailer looked very exciting and good. so it looks promising. who doesn't like watching rich people fight over money and be pathetic about it lol.starting first ep, when the fl narrating how she got what she got, i was just gobsmacked. not at how good it is, but how awkward the whole scene is.
the fl acting was so robotic and it looks like she's having hard time to figure out what emotions she should show during that time.
i was quite surprised because the director is not a rookie, i know they directed some well known dramas before.
the the whole describing how influencer works about promoting stuff, the whole editing, showing public reaction, is so dizzying and all over the place. i got dizzy and overwhelmed.
the plot was interesting but the level of execution and idk like editing process? it just makes me stop watching it.

Ate It Up!
Celebrity was an excellent binge.Seo Ari was a rich girl who became a door to door cosmetics salesperson after her father went bankrupt. One day she ends up tangled in the world of instagram celebrities and finds herself gaining attention and lets her curiosity of the world get the better of her.
What I enjoyed:
- Every episode had a lot happening. Very fast paced which I love.
- The characters which may seem over the top but not unbelievable because I have actually come across such people.
- The production was clearly top notch on this.
- The intro (theme) is gorgeous.
- The story-telling is certainly intriguing and I am a sucker for mysterious hidden characters and trying to figure out who dun it.
- Having heard of a few friends turn into rivalries among celebs and youtubers, the plot was quite believable. The way people end up exposing each other. The following unfollowing drama. The rumours and the fans defending and trolling and the public reactions. It's all well known facts about these celebs. The plot was a good run-down of how some of these people act on and off-screen.
- Though there is no proper romance, there is some really fascinating chemistry between Seo Ari and Jun Kyung that made for a fun experience.
- I love me a bit of a revenge plot so this show was right up my alley!
What could have been better:
Although I have already rated this a 10, the one thing that was distracting was that a lot of the online comments and DMs were not being translated and so I would occasionally translate them myself since some of it was a huge part of the story. Obviously, this isn't an issue of the plot itself. Rather, for whatever reason, the subbing was lacking.
I would definitely recommend watching this show even if you are not fascinated by celebrities and influencers as it has a lot going for it.

Entertaining, glamorous and fun
I'm loving it. Never watched anything about influencers before. The story is fresh and feels current. There is a big mystery that hopefully will be solved in the end. And some romance added to the mix. I love fashion so watching them parading in those clothes is a treat, and the makeup, etc. are great too. Plus, I like the way they tell the story: the MC talks about a cheat code to make it to the top, but in the end she goes up thanks to random events happening and the right people noticing her, and I think that's close to reality...in the end, making it to the top as a celebrity is a lottery. Those who are talented and know how to position themselves have more tickets, but it guarantees nothing and in the end only a few lucky people are graced with the price.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Una grata sorpresa
Este drama te plantea la vida de una celebridad mediante las redes sociales, sus inicios, conflictos y todo sobre este mundo así que yo ya no podría pedir más.Me ha encantado como han llevado esta historia y sobre todo escogiendo a un buen reparto. El tema de los haters es tan real, es algo que vemos hoy día y que a veces obviamos. Esa obsesión por ser reconocido por un famoso, te conteste en sus directos, etcétera. Todo esto lo vemos con los pensamientos que tiene la protagonista, Seo Ari, no podrían ser más reales y me encanta que ella misma no se avergüence de decirlos. Los "Lacayos" realmente existen y es increíble como alguien que no aporta nada, como son los influencers, tienen ese poder con sus seguidores.
Las mentiras, engaños, montajes que perfectamente son una verdad para ganar fama y más dinero convirtiendo que en ese mundo no hay verdaderas amistades y siempre hay una gran competición entre ellos.
Ha sido completamente una locura. Hasta me ha encantado la química que tiene Ari con su interés amoroso, aunque este drama para nada se refleja en un romance. Ellos han creado en mí una necesidad y es que estoy deseando verlos juntos en algún drama romántico.
En conclusión, una serie corta, de poca duración, con plot twist y que vas a estar enganchado todo un día o un fin de semana, es Celebrity.

Best 2023 Netflix Series So Far
A good serie that would play with you mind and blow it. It was so addictive that I couldn't watch one episode only! The actors did the roles of their lives and don't forget the amazing work of the screenwriter. Simply, I think this is the best project of Netflix so far. If you want intrigue, suspense and plot twists, you need to watch Celebrity. Even the romance was good and it wasn't the main part. My praises to Kang Min Hyuk because I'm sure I'm going to watch every single of his drama! Also, Park Gyu Young did the acting of her life. If she doesn't win a award for this show, people don't know what good acting is.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Were You Not Entertained??
Watched it on a whim. I had it on my list on Netflix for a while and just had never been in the mood for it but then the other day I was just craving K-Dramas so I decided to watch it. I was watching a C-Drama I had paused for a while but then just needed to watch a K-drama for whatever reason and this helped to scratch the itch a little. Now I want to watch more K-dramas lol.I liked it. It kept me captivated enough to finish it in 2 days. Would have been quicker but I had to work lol.
The acting was a bit meh at times but not enough to ruin the story. I'm assuming that is what they were looking for for certain characters, a monotonous complicity with their lives.
I think the FL's character was pretty boring when she wasn't doing anything. It was weird like they would say she knows how to get people's attention and we'd see her smiling and laughing with random people but then in the scenes that drive the story forward, she seems to lack personality. I was thinking maybe they wanted you to not be able to guess what she was going to do next so she would just look blank at times, but I don't know.
My favorite part was definitely those crumbs of romance they threw to us. That man said "I like you, please like me back" and you expect me to not be sat for their scenes?? This rich, successful, unproblematic man who only wanted to protect the FL, you want me to lie and say it was lackluster because of the lack of facial expressions??? I will not stand for this slander lol. But seriously, I love Kang Min Hyuk. He was a supporting character in a few of my first K-dramas so I can't hate him. He's too adorable and I was so surprised to see him in this show. Let alone as the ML.
But honestly, I judge TV Shows and movies based on how much I like them. I am not someone who looks for an underlying message or needs some kind of huge complicated plot to be satisfied. I just watch things for their entertainment value. Was it fun? Did I get bored? Are the FL and ML characters I can empathize with? I really only binge-watch or read when the thing I am watching or reading gets me hooked to the point where I can't put it down. When a show constantly makes me want to keep going and finish it in one sitting, that's enough for me.
K-Dramas have been disappointing for a while now and while this was not a show focused on romance (my favorite genre) it was a very fun world to dive into. I would recommend this, it's short and sweet.

Very Enlightening
I’ve read some of the negative reviews and I guess I didn’t see what they saw.I was very impressed with the FL from start to finish. She showed all the emotions, all the attitude, all the despair, all the determination, never came across as too over the top, ever. Loved her.
Some characters were a little much at times, but those behaviors fit those characters.
I enjoyed the story, though it was often quite disheartening, and really enjoyed the well executed plot twists. Could have had a slightly better ending, but I’ve endured much worse ones - this was fine.
I would recommend and would watch again.

#O_mundo_em_que_vivemos
Que dorama sensacional!!!!Uma história incrível que te prende do começo ao fim. Uma crítica as redes sociais e o cyber bullying.
A atuação de todos os atores foram impecáveis, o roteiro, direção de imagem, música foi tudo incrível.
A gente assiste na ansiedade de ver o que a protagonista está passando e com o que ainda vai acontecer, já que tudo o que acontece é bem imprevisível.
Gostei bastante da história, da protagonista que vai do "lixo ao luxo" e tenta não perder sua dignidade no mundo da fama, em que tudo é manipulado.
Recomendo demaaaaais.

Mais ou menos...
Se esse drama fosse um café, seria um café morno.Começou com uma premissa interessante: falar sobre a vida nada discreta dos influencers ("celebridades"). Infelizmente, a medida que o drama progride, o potencial aparenta ser desperdiçado.
Apesar da atuação ser excelente, algumas cenas foram caricatas demais, o que fez que os personagens não tivessem muita profundidade.
Ainda sim, é um bom drama para assistir no tempo livre: Traz uma reflexão interessante, mesmo que não bem executada, sobre o lado falso da internet e sobre os haters.
Por fim, um salve para meu personagem preferido, JoonKyung. CEO podre de rico e egocêntrico que é obcecado pela protagonista pobre.
De todos os clichês desse drama, você foi o meu favorito.
