Celebridad

Overall, Celebrity is typical in its format. We have the world of the rich which is filled to the brim with individuals who will stop at nothing to get their way, and then we have the main character who is different from the rest - determined to hold on to her morals and shield herself from the evil that awaits her.

If you're looking for a light thriller without much depth, then this is the show for you. It doesn't require you to think - instead, it allows you to sit back and watch events unfold as characters descend further into madness and others take advantage of that, securing their places on top.

Celebrity chronicles the journey of Seo A-ri (played by Park Gyu-young), who was born rich but is left to do part-time jobs after the family hits rock bottom. From not being on Instagram to becoming the numero uno 'e-celeb,' Seo A-ri's brush with success and the horrors of it is what makes 'Celebrity' such an intriguing watch.

The drama exposes that it is no secret that artificial intelligence and the virtual world are quickly dominating our lives, and will soon become the absolute reality for many, and the consequences that comes with it. Celebrity's' screenplay and writing are refreshing and honest. You can see that the writer is not taking a stand or lecturing you on how social media can become a horror story if you don't set boundaries. Instead, it tells you the very benefits of the platform which is not without its faults. The world can be condescending and conniving without any set rules. But your journey is a result of the choices you make. Right or wrong, is for you to choose.

Apart from standout performance by Park Gyu-young, the rest of the characters were perfectly blended as well. The climax of the show is very fast paced, with all the pieces suddenly solving the puzzle but it was thrilling nevertheless.

My Rating: 8/10.

Prepare to be swept away by the heart-stirring and eye-opening drama that will leave you yearning for more! This captivating story shatters the stereotype of celebrity life with every suspenseful mystery and plot twist that unfolds in each episode. As the intricate plot thickens, the gripping drama will keep you on the edge of your seat, intellectually stimulated and captivated with every scene. The powerhouse performances delivered by the cast will leave you breathless, while the costumes, realistic sets, and every detail of the production design are perfectly crafted, creating a true masterpiece of visual storytelling. This drama is a work of art that will leave you mesmerized, and it's not to be missed.

From the moment I started the first episode I was so captivated and could not stop watching. It was so entertaining watching the secrets and plot twist unfold. This has got to be one of the best K-dramas I've seen in a while! The storyline is different from the typical dramas on Netflix, so it was a breath of fresh air which I very much enjoyed. There was a lack of romance in the show, but it probably wouldn't have fit as the main character was constantly portrayed as a cold person. However, I do wish the main actress had more chemistry or development in her relationship. I'm so surprised the show doesn't have a higher rating, but hopefully with time it will change. I can't wait to see what else the writers and director comes out with next!

I actually enjoyed this one.

Started stronger that it ended but still was very good.

I think the craziness of the social media bullying and how fast opinions of people and fandom changes in korea only makes sense if you actually follow a bit of that world. If you haven't experienced how toxic those fanatics are, you will think this series is just exaggerating a lot, but trust me it isn't. In korea fandoms have ended whole careers just because their favorite idol have started a relationship with someone they didn't like or they have had rumors or bullying someone in school, it's a CRAZY conservative Society, and they act like mobs on social media.

So basically this super thrilling and fast paced drama depicts exactly this social media world in korea, where your can have everything given to you, or taken from you immediately, because unfortunately in these societies it doesn't really matter how talented you are, its all about how much you are liked.

I love the female lead, she has such feisty personality, she is so smart and she won't ever compromise her values. I also love her as actress, I absolutely love all her dramas, ( cant wait for sweet home 2!) and the tension and crazy electrifying attraction she has with the male lead in this drama is just ridiculous, without even speaking. Love them!!

I won't give it a 10 because towards the end they did a couple on nonsensical things that were a bit dumb with the mum and the best friend, I think it could have been a more polished and smart turn in that sense.
