All it took was one flawed actor to sink this for me...
Must say...even though many are rankled by the age gap trope, it didn't bother me at all when the young girl crushed on the handsome soldier who bandaged her up and took her home on his bicycle. I wondered how they would tackle this storyline. However, now on episode three, I've reached my limit, all because of the female lead . Her talents as an actress fall way short of being able to pull off this storyline. Acting immature might be the writing or the director's coaching, but this 'lady' is overdoing it and keeps piling it on, in a most insincere way. Just doesn't have the acting chops to give us a layered performance and is too on the nose to be interesting. Apologies if I sound harsh, because I like the male lead, eversince "Queen In-Hyun's Man"...and there are many other seasoned professionals in this one too, BUT the pivotal role is way out of this 'Lady's' skillset.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Weird, but in a good way
I decided to give this show a shot die to its obvious similarities to one of my favorite dramas The School Nurse Files. I have only watched one episode so far, and as expected, its weird. But I like that. The characters do seem more normal and human than in The School Nurse Files (check out my review for that one to see what I mean), but it still has a similar unsetteling atmosphere. Im excited to keep watching, and will update my review in a couple days when I'm done binging it! I wasnt sure about Netflix making dramas, but if this one is as good as im expecting it to be, i cant wait to see what they do next. We need more straight up weird dramas.Update: after some thorough binging I have finished the show. It reallu took a huge turn about halfway though, without giving much information, it went from a The School Nurse Files vibe to a Save Me vibe. The humor let up in the later episodes, which is not surprising. I do wish it had kept that weirdness going, and involved more of the alien aspect, but it was still a good watch. Definitely worth giving a shot if you are into any sort of cult stories or aliens/scifi.

I HAVE TO GET THIS OUT OF MY CHEST!!!!!
This is really funny, i'm not even done with episode one and I'm already writing a review, I'm sorry but i just have to say thisWhy the hell is win angry at Korn, just because the father gave Korn 25%, seriously I mean with what ive watched so far, i think korn deserves it, i feel he has been working there for a very long time and he has helped out a lot, Win shouldn't behave like that. Although I'm not even done with episode one, i just had to say this.... Soooo...but the music is actually interesting, it has a country music vibe to it.. And i love the cast especially Lin. So let see....

Started off with a BANG(or should I say a Nail Him)
Yes, yes and yes. Already hooked from episode one. The clever Names being Nail and Him *insert sly emoji*. Absolutely here for the Nail character. When he finds out his partner cheated on him, he did finally what I wished most characters would do in dramas which is give absolutely no f*cks. He knows his worth and the way he handled the situation with the third party was absolutely HILARIOUS *insert laughing emoji *.Not going to lie I have absolutely no idea what is completely going on with the plot lol.

Honestly, it’s not that good
What more could we ask for other than a handsome vampire and a cute curious boy? That’s something I would say if the plot was good. Look I’m not angry just disappointed. Visually the show is appealing. Yes the scenery is pretty and so is the entire cast however, production wise, the shooting is done okay but there are some weird cuts and odd sound effects here and there. I did find myself giggling and cringing at the same time so I guess you can call that a healthy balance in a BL drama lol. Both MC are equally weird and I’m here for it but the show is slower in terms of pace and cringy which are never a good thing to have simultaneously.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Annoying comments in the subtitles should be forbidden
One episode in and I'm already annoyed AF. Someone called "Pinkmilk" provided English subtitles, which is obviously good, but insists on writing the most ridiculous comments, virtually sucking all the fun out of watching. Can people please just keep their idiotic fangirling comments to themselves? Don't you have some social media or other forum where you can do that sh*t? Some of us want to watch and discover the story, the characters and their development on our own. Nobody needs nor wants your "insights". So annoying!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
The worst
Ugh, I don't know how to say this nicely buuuut...In short, this was so awful and cringy and oh my god I couldn't finish even the first episode and I really tried. I don't know how this has such a high rating... the acting, the plot...everything was so cringe...the worst bl in my opinion and I watched a lot... I know that Thai bl knows to be over the top with style and acting but this was like over the top for me... I didn't want to judge until I see more but I just couldn't watch anymore...I was expecting more similar reviews and comments but I guess people vibe with this

I WATCHED 4 EPISODES, SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO!
You can say CGI doesn't matter as long as the story good.
No you are wrong. The CGI hurts my eyes! If I learn 3D animation my self, I believe I could create better CGI :)
I notice bad CGI from first episode, but I would like to give second chance as the story is quite unique.
Second issue with this series is the Male Lead character get his brain grow in reverse like Benjamin Button. The Male Lead first appearance as 20 years old something, a bit childish but mature enough to hold 2 jobs as con-magician-artist and inn-butler.
2 episodes later, the character turned into a 5 years old boy in an adult body!
Main story is still not clear at this point. What is the mission? Who are the villains? What need to be done?

Ainda é cedo, mas temos uma boa história!
A série vem com aquela pegada que já estamos familiarizados, uma alma que está presa em outro corpo. Acredito que ainda seja muito cedo para fazer qualquer julgamento quanto ao roteiro, mas já posso fazer uma ressalva aqui aos atores que de inicio já deram um show. Também vai um destaque para abertura, a forma transição e a ênfase nas fotos dos atores fizeram a diferença, saindo um pouco daquele formato de “quadrinhos” ou anime que alguns diretores preferem. Vamos aguardar pelas próximas surpresas.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
It’s got a plot
Honestly, it’s enjoyable. It doesn’t revolve completely around two characters forking, there’s a pretty solid plot that makes sense, and the leads have a lot of chemistry.No doubt, a lot of people find Pit Babe to be more interesting, but in a way this one feels more adult to me. Sure, there’s a reincarnation storyline that they managed to also wrap into a “they knew each other as children” plot line, but I didn’t find myself skipping a lot and with a lot of these Thai dramas a ton of it fills like filler just so you can see the two main characters bone.
I don’t know, it’s nice to see something that doesn’t hinge entirely on the sexual relationship between two men, and it actually throws danger at them.
What more can you ask for?

Not what I was expecting
Good to see parts of stories continued but confusing because the original story from season 1 was changed here in season 2. The original story could've remained unchanged, even though they lost Saint as Pete. The changes are annoying but I'm ignoring them to watch how things turn out for Can & Tin. By episode 3, I'll know if I'm sticking aroundLikelihood of rewatching this is already low for me despite the cuteness of Can & handsomeness of Tin. Too many changes *sigh* left me feeling disappointed

Not what you'd expect
The drama doesn't focus on the school violence but rather on the love triangles among the students. A lot of things don't make sense and they didn't depict the resolution well. I still don't get why Kang Ha fell in love with Jae-i, especially why he would go to such lengths for her. The more I try to wrap my head around what happened, the less I understand the point of the drama... Sad to say what a disappointment it was after watching the trailer.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Esta resenha pode conter spoilers
"Hierarchy" started with immense potential, boasting a gripping premise centered on power dynamics, hidden secrets, and the promise of revenge. The elite students, each with their distinct backgrounds and intertwined destinies, set the stage for a drama ripe with intrigue and conflict.Strengths:
Strong Beginning: The initial episodes of "Hierarchy" were captivating, introducing viewers to a world of privilege, power struggles, and the tantalizing secret of Kang Ha. The buildup was intense, creating high expectations for the unfolding drama.
Character Depth: The characters were well-crafted, each bringing their own complexities and backstories. The contrast between the elite students and the enigmatic Kang Ha added layers to the narrative.
Weaknesses:
Disappointing Ending: The conclusion of "Hierarchy" was its most significant letdown. Despite setting up a revenge arc, the storyline abruptly shifted to a happy resolution, negating the build-up of tension and conflict. This sudden change felt forced and unsatisfactory.
Lack of Consequences: The drama's resolution saw all characters turning out to be good, with no repercussions for the antagonists. This undermined the entire revenge theme and left viewers feeling that the narrative had lost its direction.
Unrealistic Turn of Events: The transition from a potential revenge drama to an overly optimistic ending lacked coherence. The characters' transformations and the lack of retribution for the wrongdoings felt unrealistic and disconnected from the story's initial premise.
Conclusion:
"Hierarchy" had all the ingredients for a compelling drama but faltered in its execution towards the end. The strong start and well-developed characters were overshadowed by an unsatisfying conclusion that failed to deliver on the initial promise of revenge and intrigue. The shift to an inexplicably happy ending without addressing the conflicts and wrongdoings left many viewers disappointed.
In summary, while "Hierarchy" began with the potential to be a standout drama, its ultimate failure to fulfill its revenge theme and provide a meaningful resolution makes it a frustrating watch for those who invested in its early episodes.

Revenge is a dish best served cold or in this case sizzling hot
I started this drama because I liked the trailer and premise of it and more so because I'm interested in seeing Yoon So Yi in a new drama and Yoon Hyun Min, of course. That said, I'm not sure how I feel about him as Cha Min Joon, a lawyer, who defends the rich despite their guilt, or even the man who feels guilty and compensates their victims with his own money for it. But seeing him at Hae Ra's book signing deepened my curiosity for him. There has to be a story there.The moment I saw Kim Hyun Sung at the train station, he gave me bad vibes. I knew he was staged and most likely by Hae Ra's husband. A coward of a man who uses his fists rather than his words, and as they say, violence is the last refuge of the incompetent. So, as I watched, I found myself thinking there didn't seem to be anything special about this revenge plot until I saw Yoon So Yi at the agency (I am already in love with her role in this) as the plotter, I found myself getting excited. There's an absolute satisfaction in watching the filthy rich and their equally amoral pawns get hoisted by the very people they dismiss as good for nothing. It's so wholly appealing; I'm all in with this drama, at least for now.
