typical Japanese folktale ghost stories.

We all must have heard of told ghost stories during those sleepover nights with friends. This movie exactly fits into those ghost stories, inspired by Japanese folktales written nicely with a time loop. RE/MEMBER is the authentic, spine-chilling tale of Asuka's escape from a fatal time loop is well presented, exceptionally gory, with a heartwarming blooming friendship.

The movie was amazing for the first half when we had the red ghost chasing the students. But it got funny students are killed in a gory way but its just long shots and not scary with somber music. Apparently, students were more chill and enjoying their new friendship rather than scared to die a horrible bloody death. None of them was hysterical, if I would be there I would shout and scream a few times before going calm and thinking straight. Those guys should be applauded for not being traumatised for facing brutal deaths.

Lastly the ending credit scene theory
The missing child photo changes to Asuka, who is actually the female lead and survives until the last most of the nights. And the story is written from her POV, she also peeps into the well where she hallucinates about seeing bloody hands. So I went over to the start and there were Russian news articles of many missing children along with a body search summation. While people who participated did interviews or whatever they somehow went missing.
And the credit said “And then they become a substitute for her, becoming her sacrifice. And then they disappeared without a trace.” so I think Asuka might be the next target.
Also, a newspaper photo is of child Asuka and once Asuka said she kind of missed a swimming meet and nobody talked to her when she returned back, that was in freshman year. So it would be like taking her back to a time when she was a kid to create another time loop.
But for now, she is alive and well, maybe got a boyfriend, not stressing my mind over that she died.

Also she may be dead, but her soul hasn't disappeared, so she lingers in the school and helps out her classmates to find her own dismembered body. When she becomes whole and free from the time loop she is being visible to others.

once a watch

Most of the movies about killers/assassinators would be about the revenge of betrayal cause they lose something beloved. KILL BOK SON is different cause the rich have made killing into a business. Drama World can make anything into a high-profile business
and she is an ace worker who wants to quit and focus on parenting. But the company doesn't want to let her go. And the teenage daughter has her own story who eventually opens up and her insecurities, likes, and questions. It is nice to see the mother-daughter talking by the end.

It felt like watching a female replace John Wick, for its more action sequence and light family story. The many probabilities of the fight scene flowing in the head of Bok Son were nice but that created confusion in the end. She always thinks ahead which actually doesn't happen but it's represented in front of the camera so it feels real.

I don't like the minors kissing scene. was that necessary for to camera shoot, it could have been angled. maybe I am freaking out but yeah I am. This scene ruined my mood to rewatch it.

It is not boring but not excellent to make me want a rewatch it.

I started this movie thinking that it is inspired by classic Korean dramas but got highly disappointed. It had got a good story with excellent actors but the script felt flat. the execution and editing were the worst. This was a 2 hr long movie and the scene would transition was pathetic. it feels like I had skipped something, but NO THE SCENES WERE NOT MISSING, NEITHER I SKIPPED, IT WAS LIKE FILL IN THE BLANKS or read in between the lines.

I didn't get the ending also, why is the ML running it was so confusing. and the romance when did that happen to make such an ending? it vibed like incest although they were not related so I definitely didn't like it.

The acting was average nothing special.

I am literally laughing that Ifinally finished this. I had this drama on PTW for long cause I felt confused with the language cause I know basic mandarin but it was mixed with Cantonese with Mandarin mix, so it would distract me. This is my first Hong-Kong Cantonse language drama.

This is surely inspired by Twilight movie and even though it is low budget and has bad CGI, and has an average storyline, there is something good about the drama its fast-paced and has short episodes. And just 9ep was even more motivating to finish the drama. so until I get invested or get bored it already is ended
Vampires, fox, and humans interesting take but the supernatural part were less and human drama more.
Acting was great!!! ML Danson Tang and FL Micelle Wai were so believable.

dropped for 2 months

Started this drama cause I was charmed by JCW, but past 5 episodes it was really difficult to move forward. The story seemed all over the place with 3 couples from the city, who are doing a reality show interview.
Well, the drama concept and cinematography in the interview manner were quite good but it was extremely slow-paced.
Then watched ep 8 and was so annoyed that I dropped it for 2 months. I was so angry over Lee Eun Oh, she was a messed up character and didn’t know what she was doing. And ultimately the joke she played in the past is the core of the whole story that annoyed me even more. all the characters are into some misunderstanding which leads them to break up, but they DON'T TALK. a relationship is healthy when you clear misunderstanding if any of the partners are uncomfortable or have any issues. they have a silent breakup and the other person keeps on wondering where is the problem. WHY can't they have a healthy breakup, they are not kids, they are working adults but their behavior is so mehh
I picked it up again to finish this off my CW, because of JCW and Choi Min Ho. Yeah CMH was a surprise and helped in getting this through. and I liked that he also got his share of the story in the last episode.

Overall it is an OK watch, but I won't recommend it, cause all the characters don’t have an answer to why they are doing it. They were all messed up.

one time watch

The story unfolded in a very mysterious way that it intrigued me from beginning to end. The deja vu and amnesia were a well balanced that it was difficult to assume its a memory or dream. Everything seemed so real to be fake.

The cinematic beauty was amazing, colours gave a subtle touch to the thrilling and sad story which enhanced it beautifully.

The acting was top-notch by Seo Yea Ji, she was the soul and performed like a pro as ever. Each expression, of fear, anger, and confusion was amazing.
Kim Kang Woo was good, I watched him for the first time he has the aura of darkness.

Overall it is a good thriller.
But it won't be an option for rewatching because when the mystery is known then nothing remains to see.

One Time Watch

This drama was a typical lakron category showing slap/kiss, abusive ML, with a strong evil female, and lots of misunderstanding.

Well, it was a new story for me as one twin misuses the identity of the other and defames her. ML was a horrible person whether rich or poor. He was not likable even for a second, and I won't give in to the fact that he misunderstood. A person should not mistreat anyone just because they didn’t recognize him.
Also, I think the vamp was too strong for the demise that was given to her. She had a strong aura to destroy but the way she got hurt was just a joke.

Well, the acting was awesome TBH by everyone. FL Vill was awesome as twins Gandaowasee and Gandaomanee. I felt the negative and positive characters perfectly.
ML Toomtam was average maybe because I didn’t like his character. His toxicity was too much for me.

Music was forgetful
It is a drama to be rewatched.

If any1 wants to watch a typical lakron, this is one good choice in this genre. As a viewer it's good but the storyline is negative and I do not support the toxic relationship.

Avoid if you dont like indecent jokes

●When I searched bandit themed on MDL for Thai, Suparburoot Jorm Jon was the only drama. Interestingly the synopsis intrigued me and here I am writing the review after completing it.

●An over-the-top story that a bandit kidnaps women and then what happens is Stockholm syndrome IMO. But the story was well built with fantasy elements of supernatural, black magic, and ghosts along with lost family, hate to love, bandits and police fights were so well written it felt like I am in a storybook of some magical forest.
I enjoyed the epic banter of the leads, they both hated each other but came to understand how caring the other person is. I felt pity for the leads because they both were clutched in the hands of Seua Phan, who besides harvesting evil powers had only evil thoughts. He was a completely hollow person who can just go t to hell because forgiveness is not meant for some people. Also, the bad bandits who stole but also raped women are the worst, that was the most hateful thing and what could be expected from them.

●I like the main concept of drama that good wins over evil but for good to see clearly have to believe that evil powers exist. Yoga and meditation were correct, they can open great powers if humans have the will to gain them. The Seua Pha and the police officer showed that good deeds will bring you enlightenment.
The lead's funny and dark story is worth watching.

●If you like crime, thriller with supernatural mystery with a love story, give this drama a try, it deserves a chance.

●It also have lots of women abuse and some indecent jokes so If you don’t like that please avoid this drama.

Never have I ever though to see all of them together

●Where can we see a lot of stars together, the only one I could think of was AWARD shows, where they have minimal and formal interaction with each other.

●when the trailer of Youth MT was dropped, I gasped because I was still under the spell of THE SOUND OF MAGIC, I was so glad that would see those SAME ACTORS TOGETHER ONCE AGAIN.

●I have watched Itaewon Class and loved that as for love in Moonlight, it might become my next drama to watch. But I do the actors from the drama well and have seen them in different projects.

●It was so relaxing and brought millions of smiles to my face because
My favourite was of course TSOM team but I loved LIML team too, as for IC I missed Kim Dami. Every game was interesting the pranks were hilarious. The actors light conversation beside the games was nice to see, it felt like seeing some Behind the scenes footage.

●SPECIAL MENTION- Hwang In Yeop was truly hilarious, throughout the show he was so fun to see. He is effortlessly funny or saying fun strikes him. Who can forget him falling while picking up his slipper?
Kim Yoo Jung, Chae SooBin and Kwon Nara were others who were so much fun to see as girls. I couldn’t stop adoring the girls of the drama.

●Except wanting for more episodes I don’t have any complaints. But it was good that they kept it compacted and had maximum fun in a short time. BUT I STILL WANT MORE.
●Other drama variety shows only have 1 drama cast and they are all promoting drama with the interview. Also If you watch any other variety show there might be 1 or 2 favourite celebrities and skip like the rest of the cast. But YOUNG ACTORS RETREAT was a glimpse of the top actors, real self from 3hit dramas (and I hope they were not acting because the camera was rolling but were genuinely nice people.)

●I bow to the (PD) Kim Sung Yoon for bringing them together and giving such a nice show to the audience and a happy time to my favourite actors, everyone is busy and still came together for 3 days for the Retreat.

●Story- There wasn't any story but games were interesting.
●Acting/Cast- cant say if they were acting but the actors shad fun nd I had fun watching them. The comments were so fun to see like are normal people who fumble, make mistakes, get shy or scared.
●Music- the BGM was hilarious.
●Rewatch Value- it has become my go to happy show, which can be watched anytime.

Watch this during holiday season

The drama has an ensemble cast of actors who are not just visually pleasing but also great in emotional connection.

Although it has lots of stories going in the luxurious hotel the one that caught my attention was Kang ha Neul, who has failed in life and wants to give up on life but the hotel staff makes sure he is catered well and doesn't act wrongfully. It was also because almost all the staff were involved in his story.

Another one was the school story where four guys confess to one girl. This teen flirting was adorable to watch.

Han Ji Min as a hotel staff was efficient but lacks the courage to confess her childhood friend. HJM surely fits the role.
Kim Young Kwang playing her childhood friend was giving the feels of ‘On your Wedding day

The mother of the bride meets her first love in the hotel and gets to fulfill the long promise she made to him this story was really touching.

The blind date guy was finally able to approach his crush at the end of the year, were also so vibes of hope and I literally jumped to see them together.

Seo Kang Jun as a singer was cute, his story starts with his manager was heartwarming. the manager was so selfless and hardworking to him. this brotherly bonding was wow.
Lee Dong Wook is the CEO of the hotel but his role seemed the weakest, I was disappointed actually but was happy to see the happy ending for him.

Every story is a happy ending and sends in a message of new hope as the new year approaches and everyone looks forwards to the new opportunities. Although the movie is happy but was in a depressed mood and thought it could lift my mood up, but that didn’t happen. But if it might have been a holiday season it would have worked.

relatable to those who got homemade lunch box

●BENTO HARASSMENT reminds me of an Indian movie titled “The Lunch Box” which is about two strangers who bond together after it gets mis-delivered to a man, made by a wife for her husband. They both send the letter in the box.
In Bento Harassment mother crafts messages with food for her teen daughter.

●This movie is so relatable to me, and It might sound bad, but my mom just made one food for my lunchbox for almost 6years and when I reached my early teens I stopped taking lunchbox because I was bored and embarrassed to eat the same dish every day. I endured those 6hours with the breakfast I ate in the morning. My mother never asked the reason was sad though. I ain’t complaining but am super impressed how the mother in the movie cared so much for her daughter, also that single father who was a newbie at bento making was awesome.

●It was heartwarming to see a mother trying to bond with her rebellious daughter over food. And the messages of correct parenting were sent to the viewers. Do not pressurize your kid but try to talk with them, if not by mouth then with messages or any other way, when you put effort into parenting, Kids will surely feel your love and care.

●Story is comical and heartwarming simultaneously. It later becomes serious but maintains its warmth until the end.

●The acting is decent by everyone. No Complaints. I love the actress Playing the mother, the way she felt happy while making food was nice to see.

●My favorite scene is when both mom-daughter prepare the bento together.
●My favourite Bento Lunch Box was the last one, the graduation Bento.

Fantastic comedy!!! Highly Recommended

●We all have watched at least one movie/drama based on soul swapping or body swapping. so this movie has an identity swap while he suffers amnesia.

●All the fun elements happen action, romance, and comedy happens, when Choi Hyung Wook tries to do what he is good at, which is fighting and using knives in the new supposed life. This all has a great turn of events when he tries to become an actor which is even more hilarious.

●On the other side, after stealing the identity, Yoon Hye Sung Played by Lee Joon is the same as his past self. But he invites trouble without knowing the job of the person he is impersonating.

●Acting by everyone is top-notch, started it mainly because of Lee Joon and loved everyone while watching it. Yoo Hae Jin was an excellent choice to play the killer. Im Ji Yeon was really good, having a job as an emergency caregiver she had a warm heart and helped the ML in other aspects too

●I learned two things from this movie:
1>You cannot change the personality of the person. His inner self will be seen in his daily habits, that how he lives his life _ learned from Lee Joon
A2> person's outer self is not all that we see. It's highly possible that what he does for a living is different from what others see. _ learned from Yoo Hae Jin.

●my favorite scenes were the drama Choi Hyung Wook was shooting.

●Highly recommend for a dose of the comic.
If you don’t have anything to watch, then watch Luck-Key

who is innocent in this world ?

Innocent Witness is a wonderful movie with a beautiful message. I was overwhelmed at the end because it questions the human beings who think they are normal and every other human being with any shortcomings, diseases, or specialty is abnormal. But they forget one thing normal humans had the ability to lie and commit crimes.

The director, producer, and writer made a beautiful film and focused on the prejudice of society toward autism. Because they are always considered to be abnormal and not fit for the world.

Innocent Witness foretells that the prosecution arrested a housekeeper on the charges of murder, solely on the basis of a witness statement. The defense lawyer tries hard to get the correct information but he had his biased opinion that witnesses may have perceived the murder events wrongly because normal people also make mistakes. Maybe because he wanted to win the case but finally he realized the special skills of Kim Ji Woo and understood her statements. Becoming a man of justice and not just a winning lawyer.

Jung Woo Sung and Kim Hyang Gi nailed her character on the spot! The combined synergy between these two characters was just heart-warming and loved the pace and build-up to the solving of the case.

The only flaw for me was the prosecution part they didn’t really work hard to prove the guilty not just rely upon one witness. They should have gone to prove the motive and other basics. The writer may have left this to show the non-effort of the prosecution which contrasted with the defense attorney who gives time and effort to his cases.

typical celebrity-commoner love story

What happens when you fall in love with a Star(Celebrity), you come under the surveillance of the media and your quiet life might become chaotic. Either you continue the relationship hiding or break up to let the celebrity have his name and fame untainted.
Writers are so obsessed with sacrificing the love concept, I am leaving you for your own good and then suffer alone in the name of love. Pushing away the person you love is a really irritating premise.

Almost every star story has this typical storyline. you get to see typical banters and indifference of personality. The movie had a predictable ending and the leads have mediocre chemistry. For me, it was a waste of time.

ML, Yi Feng had good and effective acting. FL, Yang Mi was blank for me. She just didn’t have any facial expressions. If it's sad it ought to show on her face, eyes anywhere I just couldn’t find expressions on her. No offense to her fans please but sorry I didn’t like her.
Dilraba Dilmurat was the reason I watched the movie, but she had very less screen time. And being a newbie she was average.
