PSA on the Dangers of Method Acting

The plot of this show seems complex and intriguing. I love dramas with politics, intrigue, and schemes galore. But this drama showed me I have a firm line on crazy. ***SPOILER**** I get acting like you've lost it when playing the long game. hell yeah. do you scheme it up. but my dude - it's too far. THOSE CRAZY EYES HAUNT ME. He didn't just dip his toe in crazy he did a full belly flop in the deep end of lunatic. There's absolutely no subltety or nuance to the performance. Just absolutely insane, creepy eyes. His unhinged acting takes me out of the story. I'm so distracted from the overacting I can't enjoy or focus on anything else than his one-dimensional portrayal. It's painful to watch.
I don't know if this was method acting gone wrong (the actor or the character) but fam this is not it.

You can’t expect worst than this drama

After watching 8 episodes I decided to drop out this drama but my worst fate make me continue to watch this thinking that it get better but oh my god, this becomes worst and worst, if you want to become sadistic you can try this drama.
I have watched till 21 episodes but what I found is the title of this drama and the story are completely opposite. Instead of that they could have named it as meaningless destiny or destinyless destiny. Whole 21 episodes same thing is repeating and repeating, in some drama in 21 episodes almost it comes to conclude of the story but in this drama even not 10% story moved, but I don’t know in the future episodes is there any story or not, or only repeating the same scenes again.
In 21 episodes ML confessed 3 times and he got rejected all the times, yet he shamelessly shows his face. FL is the most annoying one, more than annoying I must say psycho character because FL couldn’t accept his feelings and ML couldn’t maintain his distance from her, each time he says he will not disturb or annoy her with his presence but in the next scene he shows and again telling the same thing.
In this 21st century I really got shocked seeing this kind psycho annoying dramas.
I think only the Chinese director’s can show this much shameless, brainless jerky ML character. I think in all dramas except the title and few scripts everything they do copy paste of old dramas.
Same ML and FL characterization, cold shameless, dual personality ML and dumb brainless, courtesy less FL.
It is same in maximum all dramas, initially the ML is so mature with high IQ, EQ and dignified but when FL enters his IQ and EQ drops suddenly and he will become shameless, undignified jerk, and FL she is good to everyone but the ML. How much the FL insults, scolds and sometimes even slapped the ML publicly, in the next second the ML again ran into FL shameless.
I don’t know when these Chinese directors change their style or adopt different ML character.

I can see me getting obsessed with this

TW for MAMEness!

THE only real complain I have is the Music, but that's a problem with more than a few first episodes so I think next episode is probably gonna do better on that front.

Rain is cute AF, he is clueless and anxious and clearly has a little crush on Payu but the way he is portrayed is a lot less annoying than most clueless Leads. I can't wait to find out how his Character is gonna deal with a Guy like Payu.

I appreciate that Payu had actual Reasons to think that Rain is into him, of course his Behavior would still not be okay IRL but he's hot in the Show and just cocky enough to be fun to watch and not so arrogant to become unlikable.

(can't say much to our 2nd Couple yet!)

Uma história que flui na medida certa

Revolutionary sisters é um drama familiar de fim de semana, que pode parecer um pouco longo demais, mas que eu amei demais ter começado a assistir
O elenco é maravilhoso e a história não tem enrolação. A cada episódio a trama vai se desenrolando sem nos deixar entediados.
No inicio ficamos com raiva dessas irmãs, que maltratam o pai injustamente, mas ao longo da trama as coisas vão se acertando que passamos a gostar delas.
Há vários casais na história, mas quero destacar dois: Han Ye Sul r Lee Gwang Sik, pelos quais me apaixonei desde o primeiro momento e Bae Byun Ho e Lee Gwang Nam, que tiveram que superar as dificuldades para serem felizes por completo. Amei a atuacao desses quatro atores sensacionais.

The story did not lure me in after 8 episodes. Too bad it loaded with good stars.

Judge Dee's Mystery is a historical crime drama loaded with good stars (Elaine Zhong, Wang Li Kun, Zhang Ruo Yun, and Zhou Yi Wei). Still, it did not lure me in because the script was bad, and Zhou Yi Wei did not do well as the main character in this drama.

Zhou Yi Wei acted better in The Rebel Princess than in this drama.

The Synopsis:
It tells the legendary story of Di Renjie, known for his crime-solving abilities. Di Renjie has conquered the imperial examinations and awaits his official appointment in Chang'an. However, he was suddenly dispatched by Empress Wu Zetian to a border town where he encounters many mysteries. Di Renjie stands up to the challenge of upholding the duty of the higher judiciary to bring peace and prosperity to the people.

My Reviews:
1. I like Zhou Yi Wei's acting in The Rebel Princess than in this drama.
2. The script is so bad and disappointing when loaded with good stars.
3. I am dropping this drama after 8 episodes.

I give it a 5.0 rating for a horrible script. It is my opinion so don't get angry.

Wish it improves on next episodes

Ameiro Paradox is one of my favorite BL manga and one of Natsume Isaku's best works, I've reread this manga countless times already and was kinda dissapointed with the live action. I think the actors did not even bothered to read it and they were just given a script or whatever. The actor for Onoe is okay, but for Kaburagi 😖😥, was it his first drama? Aghh I can't find any trace of Kabu in his acting. There were important scenes from the manga that were either not included or not executed well on the drama. The plot is very good but that's a given because it was adapted from manga. Anyway, I hope it improves on the next episodes.

Es una serie con actores de talla nacional ya que han trabajado en producciones de gran importancia en el país lo cual recalca, lo profesional y talentosos que son en sus interpretaciones lo cual llevará a la serie a un nivel de actuación adecuado como los matices adecuados para trasmitir el mensaje de la historia sin temor a llegar hasta donde deban llegar ya que el profesionalismo está presente en una parte importante del elenco.

Hablando de la historia su matiz, que trasmite de drama coreano con shot film la hacen agradable de ver y serena, lo cual lleva a querer más y mas en cada capítulo porque te atrapa lo cariñoso, sublime y tranquilo que puede ser un amor adolescente no correspondido según cada parte, sus miradas pensamientos te atraviesan y te hacen gritar de emoción sus vidas no son fáciles pero se nota que tienen la fortaleza para superar eso que se les presenta al frente y ser mejores y estar juntos.

Son un dúo divino el cual solo debe darse cuenta que no quieren perder lo que siempre han amado y tenido, dejar los miedos atrás y darlo todo por lo que quieren y eso para mi es el punto porque debes ver la serie y sentir esa fuerza para lograr tus objetivos que aun no son tan claros pero deberán ir ordenándose.

Gangnam Style Crime Thriller

Set in the crime-ridden streets of Gangnam in the 1990s, “The Worst of Evil” promised power packed performances by its stellar casting which includes popular names like Ji Chang Wook, Wi Ha Joon, Im Se Mi. Probably one of the most anticipated releases this year, the show premiered to high expectations and the succinct storytelling is definitely worth the wait. With a three episode premiere and three episodes finale, the show will release two episodes henceforth. Starring Ji Chang Wook as local policeman Park Junmo, Wi Ha Joon as gang leader Jung Gicheul and I’m Se Mi as security officer Yu Euijeong, “The Worst of Evil” is a complicated love triangle set in the midst of a sprawling crime syndicate. Directed by Han Dong Wook, Park Geun Beom and written by Jang Min Seok, the compelling cinematography is resplendent of the 1990s era, which renders a melancholic feel to the melodrama transpiring on screen. The first three episodes do a decent job of introducing the characters and setting the stage for future confrontations. This show isn’t for the fainthearted and it depicts explicit violent scenes (so, drop it if you can’t stand watching fight scenes every 10 minutes, because that seems to be the norm for this show).

WOOWWWWWWWW.. .... SO AESTHETICALLY PLEASING!!! Beautifully done!!

Wowee what can i say about the drama... Just the first episode and I am soo in awe of it... I am totally in love with the drama....
Let's start off by the story..... The pace for the first episode was just soo perfect... They didn't give away too much but enough for u to get hooked and be mad impatient for the next episodes!!
The trailer and the teasers gave an idea that it would be more on the melancholy side.... Since it's about doom and death.... But I am pleasantly surprised with the new take the drama has taken on the idea of death....... The drama is definitely is more than just dying and sadness

Now coming to the characters...... Seo in guk's character is really something to root for... I really like how he is not shown as a deity but someone who beings doom... So basically he is not someone with the utmost power... He still has to comply with the actually deity...... What I really
Found very intriguing that he doesn't want to bring doom to the world because it's his job... Not because he has to do it but because he wants it.... I thought it would that he is just gonna complete the fml wish since that's his job.... But I was surprised as to how he wants it himself..... And about SIG acting... What can I say.... He won me over.... He is one of my favorite actors... I have watched all his dramas and I have to say this one is definitely one is his best... His demeanor, his actions, his style.... Oh my god... It was soo amazing.... The way he is all spooky nd serious and deadly when he on his ruin mode and how easily he switches to the cute boy trying to persuade the fml.......than also he maintains his style and his expression of how serious he is and how commanding he can be... His switching from cold myul mang to cute and smiling is sooo amazing to watch..... Sig is definitely owing this one.... His acting is flawless.....
The other characters are yet to be introduced... But the small little sneak peak of LSH has left me wanting for more....Also brillant scripting here as usually we see all the characters being introduced in the first epi...but here they didnt do that....keeping the hype nd curiosity alive as though even when LSH was there in one scene....he wasnt put into spotlight .....so all in all this is a brilliant way of starting a drama.....establishing the plot without giving too much!!!! Plus yess dawon as the brother is definitely a good start for him.... Hope he has more emotions to show. .....

Now now.... Let's talk about park bo young's character : Wow... She is just soo amazing.... I mean we already know how amazing of an actor she is.... Whats more interesting about her character is that when she gets to know that she is gonna die....it's so hard for to accept it in the first place... It's only slowly slowly she gets hang of it.... I like how they didn't show her all crying in the very beginning... I mean in reality it actually takes so much to accept such things in the first place.... Also the whole scene with affair thing it was handled in an amazing way..... And ofc SIG & PBY chemistry is soo amazing... They already have an amazing sizzling chemistry...

The scenery... The cinematography, the screenplay is all soo soothing and so beautiful..... They just bring so much calmness regardless of what the actually of doom is going around.... Special shoutout to the amazing graphics.... They were amazing.... And ofc we already know that the drama has an amazing line up of osts.....
So all in all a worth watch..... Just one episode down.... But I am already in Love with it .....
