Ask the Stars

Actor Lee Min-ho, what kind of person are you?? How perfectionist you are! OMG, I'm so proud of you, how from time to time you always choose amazing projects. After falling in love with the super excellent "Pachinko", I can't help myself from two timing this feeling because I'm falling in love like crazy with this new one.. the feeling of "Je t'aime passionnement a la folie".

Just like "Pachinko" that has unique opening, I also like the fresh opening of "When the Stars Gossip".

It's a rare series that we can't blink our eyes while watching it or we want to repeat some scenes we might not watch carefully because each scene is so well made.

It's the combination of delicate artistic surprises.. so beautiful like we were in an art exhibition feeling, and the promising intriguing story in which each character has their own sides of lives to understand and psychological layers to study. It's promising because I like to study the psychological layers of the characters while connecting them to the thread of their life backgrounds.

I believe it's gonna be a rich experience following this series to the end. I have a positive feeling it's a masterpiece.

I gather from the news accounts on line that GOSSIP is losing audience week by week. And I grant that, so far, at least, it does not compete with the highly popular romantic rollercoasters, such as LOVE NEXT DOOR and QUEEN OF TEARS. Also, the most engaging romantic entanglement thus far dramatized is between two supporting characters on the ground: Lee El and Kim Joo-hun. But cliffhangers there are: plot contrivances to be resolved, love stories that will develop, and a wicked, overbearing patriarch overdue for comeuppance. This series is reported to have been extremely costly to produce, even if, or because, so much of it takes place within the zero-gravity confines of a space station. Even though the orbit of the ratings is degrading and the suits who fronted the $30 million may be weeping bitter tears, I am invested enough in what might attract Lee Min-ho and Kong Hyo-jin to each other, and what might keep them apart, that I plan to hang in there.

Loved it from the beginning. I felt that the show has a level of international and more mature Kdramas. I mean the images, the colors, styles of people are very different, we don't feel the clichés and we see some issues that we face in space (even with some sci fi). That make it very immersive. From my side, I liked the chemistry between the two, Eve being kind of shy and Gong Ryong being more straight and spontaeous. He is also very funny and i like him being impulsive in space.

A show that I think we will love to continue, and take time to appreciate it, without having this addictive side.

I absolutely love it! I'm fully committed to keeping up with the series until the very last episode.

Initially, I had some doubts about the concept, thinking it seemed repetitive based on what was suggested in the trailer. However, as I delved further into the episodes, I discovered that the drama is remarkably unique and it unfolds a compelling narrative that keeps me engaged. The performances by the cast are nothing short of outstanding-each actor truly brings their character to life, incorporating depth and emotion that makes every scene impactful. Additionally, hats off to the film production team; they've done a stellar job with the editing, which enhances the overall viewing experience.

I genuinely believe you'll find immense enjoyment in it once you start watching.

What sets this K-drama apart from many others is the absence of the typical love triangle that we often see. Instead, the dynamics between the main characters are approached in a refreshing manner that's quite rare for the genre, making their interactions feel more genuine and relatable.

Moreover, the action and fight scenes are integrated seamlessly into the storyline. They don't just serve as mere spectacles; they actually contribute to character development and plot progression. The unique cartoonish graphic style adds a whimsical touch that contrasts with the high-stakes moments, infusing a delightful sense of humor that enhances the overall enjoyment of the show.drama.

I completely understand that space-themed shows aren't for everyone. Some people might find the concept too sci-fi or overwhelming, while others might simply not be interested in the adventures of astronauts and space explorers. But trust me, this series is out of this world (pun intended)! It's a game-changer, and I'm about to tell you why.

First and foremost, the writing is top-notch. The creators have done an excellent job of crafting a narrative that's both engaging and believable. The characters are well-developed, relatable, and flawed, making them easy to root for. The dialogue is witty, natural, and often hilarious, which adds a much-needed layer of humor to the show.

But what truly sets this series apart is its ability to balance action, drama, and comedy. One moment you're on the edge of your seat, watching the characters navigate a treacherous asteroid field. The next, you're laughing out loud at their banter and silly antics. It's a delicate balance to strike, but the show's creators have nailed it.

Now, let's talk about the visual effects. Oh. My. Gosh. They're breathtaking. The way the characters move around in zero gravity is so immersive, I feel like I'm right there with them. The special effects are seamless, and the attention to detail is impressive. From the intricate designs of the spaceships to the stunning vistas of the cosmos, every aspect of the show's visuals is top-notch.

But what really gets me excited is the show's ability to make me feel like I'm part of the crew. The characters' experiences, emotions, and relationships are all so expertly woven together that I find myself fully invested in their journey. I cheer when they succeed, I worry when they're in danger, and I mourn when they face setbacks. It's a true testament to the show's ability to craft compelling characters and storylines.

Another aspect of the show that I appreciate is its commitment to accuracy. The creators have clearly done their research on space travel, astronomy, and the challenges of living in space. It shows in the attention to detail, from the way the characters move in zero gravity to the realistic portrayals of spacewalks and spacecraft operations.

Of course, no show is perfect, and there are a few minor quibbles I have with this series. Some of the plot twists can be a bit predictable, and a few of the supporting characters feel a bit one-dimensional. But these are minor complaints in an otherwise excellent show.

In short, this series is an absolute delight. It's a must-watch for anyone who loves space, science fiction, or just great storytelling in general. The writing is superb, the visuals are stunning, and the characters are relatable and engaging. Even if you're not typically a fan of space-themed shows, I urge you to give this one a try. You won't regret it!
