Celebrity

This was nothing like I expected! It was about 10 times better than I could have expected! I was hooked halfway through the first episode and almost watched the entire season back to back which I've never done before! The characters were all great and actors all did a fantastic job and even though I watched it dubbed with the subtitles!

The main character did a really good job with the script and her "Leading ladies were fantastic!" They really showed how much social media can take over a person's life and how easily you can lose it all with just a click of a mouse button! What I didn't expect and really loved, was how they showed how they used their friends and people around them to get more likes which equals more followers which equals more money! I have always wondered how people make money off of social media and now I know how!

I was also afraid that it would be too "young" and more childish but it was just perfect. You could enjoyed this at pretty much any age!

If you've ever wanted to see how crazy it is behind the scenes of social media but with a mysterious and one of a kind twist that you know is coming but literally comes out of nowhere, then you need to watch this!

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.

This show was very different from what I was expecting, but still, pretty intresting and entertaining. The story is a bit confusing at the beginning, mainky because the story isn't told in cronological order but it kept me intrested enough to watch the whole show. I feel like last episode was a little bit rushed.. like not all of the reveals and twists were set up properly and it seemed like it was going a lot faster than the rest of the show... especially the identity of "bbbfamous", seemed like she came out of nowhere, i feel like the setup could have been better. Either way I think it's a great show.

Celebrity

This South Korean series delves into the world of the rich and the things they do to hold onto the wealth and prestige they have.

Celebrity starts strong, but by the last episodes plot holes become apparent and it begins to lose its steam. The side plots were mostly unnecessary, and it would have been better if the plot stuck to the celebrity world it began with.

The acting is mostly good save for the characters that express themselves by screaming and yelling. The romance between the lead and her partner was contrived.

The cinematography is rich, and the soundtrack is enjoyable.

6/10.

Park Guy-young plays Seo A-ri who's once rich family fell on hard times and she now earns a frugal living selling cosmetics door to door. Through circumstances she has the opportunity to become an online influencer, but she soon finds the world of influencers is full of jealousy and betrayal. It starts relatively slow and for the first few episodes we learn a little about the other e celebs and what a nasty backstabbing bunch they are. Then the story picks up with twists and turns and interesting observations about the fickleness of fame and how cruel and thoughtless internet trolls can be. Solid performances from the whole cast, especially the lead and observations which make you think about the nature of fame.
