Fujiie

Geks from downtown... BANG BANG!

Pudding

Ooo don't know what this show is at all, but Imma try watching it, looks interesting ~ this is what is nice about being subscribed to Studio Gek

Jimmy

Saw the word Hero thought we were getting a surprise MHA drop 😭😭😭

jrnoodles

Thanks Geks! I know nothing of this show, never heard of it. Let's see how it goes.

zaphyre

SO EXCITEDDDD This show is so good

maria⁷

i’ve only watched the first season so i’m excited!! 😋

Ozmoes Meta

We did recommend this a bunch. It’s so good

Anya

Y'all spoiling us!! 🫶 Disappointed that The Glory didn't win, but Weak Hero goes hard!

Anya

🤣 Your so funny! Y'all won! Well the K-drama fans won🙌

hollow soul

oh boy the neverending korea slop

Zipzzty

😭😭

Zipzzty

The Manhwa Clears

Ayoodude

Now I have to rewatch all this trauma with the Geks 🥲

Ladnon

PEAK

floo

Don't ever ask us "where's the teachers" we can't respond 🤣🤣

Lydia

THIS. I wish everyone would read it too 🥹 imma just try to separate the two in my head 😂

Mikkeai8908

Lord, y’all are in for a ride. I hope you guys react to season 2 immediately right after this season.

lau

HELL YES

E L

Park jihoon has come so far from being a wink boy. He’s such a good actor.

mina

for everyone that's watching for the first time with geks please go watch it by yourself because the subs here are not good.

floo

Only thing missing in this is Brig

icynub

Real

Betsy

I sure am!!! It feels unreal... They are about to witness so much peak. Lol

tanko97

yes it is! i don’t want to spoil anything but season 1 is actually a “flashback” of the actually webtoon story, so you can say this is semi-original stuff. but go check out webtoon, it is amazing

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Would s2 be the webtoon then? Also, was the webtoon popular and then it became live action? Or was it unknown.

Betsy

For real, Claire!!! I'm happy for us too. I'm pumped. They are going to go nuts. And yeah we did Anya! 🥰🤗

tanko97

IM SO EXCITED FOR YOU TO WATCH IT ALL. we have been fed well, AOURD last ep and now this? what a time to be alive lol

mina

as an og who recommended this a long time ago on discord i can't believe it's finally happening!!🤩🤩 excited for you guys to see the rest.

Betsy

I really wish they would use English not English (CC) It really distracts me some. It makes certain scenes come off so corny since it's not what they are actually saying. How can I get them to change it? Lol

mina

yeah i remember watching him in produce 101. one of my favorite contestants🥹. his signature wink and "i'll save you in my heart" is so iconic. he grew up so well

ether

this is what we were fighting for 🥳🤭

ether

we fought hard fr

Miitei

My brother is watching this, and I was passively watching an episode from S2 last weekend with him and it looks good. Will definitely give it a shot later tonight!

Betsy

It's was well worth the fight. 😏🥰

Chalène

Carter, to answer your question — South Korea is actually the country with the highest rate of school bullying in the world. In 2023, a survey by the Ministry of Education showed that more than 1 out of 30 students experienced bullying during the year. The main causes are academic pressure and the rigid social hierarchy. Bullying in general is also one of the main causes of suicide in Korea. There actually aren’t that many Korean shows that talk about it — very few, in fact — but you happened to come across some of the ones that do. So yeah, that’s a quick answer — I simplified it a bit, but there’s a lot to say about school bullying in Korea unfortunately… and honestly, about bullying in general too :(

mina

i think they're watching with right subtitles, but for some reason they edit it with english (cc).

Betsy

The geks finally witnessed Si-eun's secret weapon and their reaction was more than I could have hoped for as well as seeing my goat, Suho in action. I knew they would love this. Can't wait for episode 2 to drop!

Tami

I just screamed so freaking loud bro omg

maya

first time commenting but OH MY GOSH FINALLY i've been waiting for this one YAY

SpongeBob💗

Ahhhh mha and weak hero all in one day?!

Pudding

Lol I find it so funny when the subtitles literally say [bully 1], [bully 2]. Literally just some npcs

Zipzzty

Whole episode was entertaining

Oriem

It's peak 😭

Zipzzty

Vongola the manhwa is better and yes it was pretty known

Betsy

It gets me so confused haha

Emrataaa

OMMGGGGG YESSSS

Emrataaa

So so happy their watching more Kdrama now !!!

Judy

Welcome them down the Kdrama rabbit hole 😆

Welch

breaking bad is so dead

ether

I know u guys are watching the proper captions but it would be appreciated if you could screen record those instead of the cc’s lmaoo the translations on screen are so unnatural. Just thinking for first time watchers that wanna join u guys.

Nope

WTF WAS THAT CRASHOUT IM SHOOK BRUH

mane

OMG I WAS SO LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS the reaction is everything I hoped for so glad y'all loved the ep!!

mane

can't wait for ep2 omggg

mane

I finally have an excuse to rewatch the show ><

lissa

OMG YESSSSSS THIS SHOW IS SO GOOD

Ladnon

Are you guys watching it on Netflix? Idk if it's out anywhere else, just curious!

Pudding

What a shitty class to be in for the average person tho, I'm glad I never had anything like that, I never came across any bullies during all my school years. On another topic, camera work with drugged Si-Eun was very well-made! Really immersive

Saint

oh my gosh the gasp i just gasoed ... I CANT BELIEVE YALL ARE WATCHING THIS OMFHGJGJFF

Coen

hyped for this, but do we have different subs in the video compared to what the Geks are watching? I noticed them saying different things a few times or i might be going crazy

nocomprendo

i just finished the first ep as well, and its a banger

S Moonchild⁷

Guys give me motivation to watch it. Kdramas are hit or miss for me.

Chalène

Also guys please you should change the subtitles, cc is not accurate 😭😭

jay

been struggling to watch an episode that’s longer than 30 minutes so i’m glad you guys are watching this so i can watch it with you! (this has been on my watch list for a while)

mina

yes, idk why the bad ones are on the video

Ashley K

I guaranteed you guys would love this show haha. Korea has one of the highest education standards in the world. But that test Si-eun took was just a mock test (practice exam) of the college entrance exam so it doesn’t really count. Si-eun is just tweaking lol. But for real tho please turn off the Eng CC on the recordings. A lot of us can’t stand them 😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

mina

do it. just give it one episode and see how it goes. but watch it with right subtitles, cuz these ones are not good. (i'm starting to sound like a parrot😣)

I’m Tired

OMG?? I’m on my break rn, can’t believe I’m working and yall dropped peak 😭😭

lian

i think nowadays there’s lots of dramas about the bullying in south korea, i guess most just aren’t as popular and aren’t on netflix

Betsy

I'm a parrot too, Mina 🤣

T.Yaseen

First time watching this what a crazy first episode, i'm guessing the MC is cooked now and he might end up in a lower college with the athletic guy.

Cannon Andrus

This show is actually so freakin good

Cannon Andrus

We’ll get mckay to fix it for the future episodes

Pavlo

that was something, cant wait to watch more :))

Cannon Andrus

Believe it or not it’s my most complimented shirt

Elijah

Whens the next breaking bad ep

Poragami

SO HYPED FOR THIS also, can we get an updated schedule pwease?

Ayoodude

Ya that show is a low key banger

sil 🧸ྀི

I just finished watching this and OH MY GOD YESSSS im so hyped you guys are starting woooo

Chalène

Well, you might be right, but as you said, they’re probably not popular and therefore not accessible — which makes it harder to raise awareness about the issue.

mina

yes yes yes!!

vicc

OMGGG I WASN't EXPECTING IT TO BE THIS FAST

Betsy

Props to Park Jihoon's acting with that slap scene. It gets me everytime. That's actually insane he literally did that to his face for his role. Can't wait for you to see Si-eun's personal growth and budding friendship with Suho. I love their duo so much.

vicc

I never finish this kdrama, but I'm so hyped to watch it with you all!!!

Cat

Yes rewatched it recently! So good

Enma

Dont worry guys The Glory is not about bullying at all so you should be good 👍

lian

oh yea i meant not popular to international audiences since im pretty sure netflix is how a lot of people find kdramas

Judy

😂

Chalène

The fact that the slap was ad-lib bro

Betsy

I know, right? That makes it even crazier...

Betsy

I love how you guys were just vibing to the intro song because same, it's so good!! And with this being my fifth rewatch, it hits even harder. There's a lot of emotion and meaning just within that little tune.

McKay Carter

Oh was downloaded immediately

Betsy

You have exceptional taste.

I’m Tired

Just got off work, cant believe this prob the closest geks will get to kpop, wonder how they’d react to park jihoon’s famous emote

Joydan Bri’an

oh as a the glory fan i’m sick but this was actually really good!!! lemme go binge

Jack

Thank goodness lol

joursh

ATTABOY I KNEW YOU'D LIKE THIS CANNON

joursh

good theory good theory

joursh

strap in 😉

joursh

brig would absolutely love this show

joursh

honestly i just separated the two works from each other. love love love the manhwa, but the show takes a different approach and i respect it. still good either way

joursh

furthest thing from slop bruh

joursh

i promise its worth it bro

joursh

i knew your reaction to the crashout would be gold 🤣

joursh

both s1 and s2 are the manhwa, its just that the flashback doesnt happen first in the manhwa

joursh

YOOOOOO!!!!!

lian

park jihoon is such a good actor

HannieSims

they need to react to the glory next!! it's too good to pass up lol

joursh

100%

Imane

Omg this show I'm so excited thank you guys

beannie

park jihoon was robbed from every single award out there with this role, such an immaculate performance

Rebecca

Woah what the hell, now i gotta binge the whole thing

BipolarKitten

Soo Ho naps so much he’s basically Zoro without the swords. Just vibes, naps, and surprise violence when he wakes up.

I’m Tired

Yall in the comments finally getting the hype is making me so happy

Ron Jackson Jr

He deserved it would done the same but not that far

beannie

this reaction was amazing, i recommended this on youtube comments twice but i thought it would take some time for ya'll to watch it! this show is immaculate, the direction, the cinematography, the performances... oh you guys are in for a ride! our main guy park jihoon (sieun), became one of my favorite actors after seeing what he did with this role, he's insane. i'm sooooo excited!!!

Joydan Bri’an

lol them actually vibing with the intro song made me giggle

i-bel-n

i wish we could get a schedule for the episodes. i'm def ready for the next one.

Christian F

Wait a minute, what the fuck is this? Is this something that has gained popularity and is a good show? I've never heard of it but it looks like a K drama. Is it supposed to be good?

a_daichi

Well that was fun!!! Really had me at the edge of my seat. I’m very intrigued to see what happens with sad boy and my nonchalant goat

Sari-chan

Very promising K-drama! Thank to all of you who recommended this! <3

Tami

It’s been a really popular kdrama since it came out in 2022

Sari-chan

Yeah his records are not pristine anymore...

a_daichi

I always thought this was an anime for some reason haha

Pinkk

You guys going into this blind makes the reaction so much better, can’t wait for next episode !!

Pulse rifles suck in pve

speaking of the council of gek... surely they convene to executive decision steins gate as the next anime :sob:

Zess

You might be thinking of To Be Hero X anime wise

a_daichi

I’ve never heard of that one tbh. I’ve never seen any image of weak hero so I just assumed from the name it was an anime lol

HaNo0onat

It’s a WEBTOON I think

Goldyz

They dropped it

John Paul

6:58 bullying is South Korea is really really bad, it can seem a bit exaggerated at times but Kdrama’s are pretty accurate at depicting what actually happens.

jemmy

YASSSS. Resubbed even though Im broke

TY

Mind blown after learning he’s a Kpop idol. Such different personas… He’s acting —incredible!!! 🙌

E L

@TY he’s a child actor so he has foundation

E L

@mina he’s my top1 pick! I was so obsessed with him because he’s so cute and talented. but i lost interest when they became a group. and now he found success in acting. so so proud of him

E L

or ORB 😭

a_daichi

Yeah I’m not very educated on Korean media. First I’ve heard of webtoon

beannie

Loving the intro right away is such a green flag tbh, I can’t trust anyone who dislikes that song

Mr. John Kagurabachi

The portrayal of bullying in South Korea is in the same reality as Euphoria for American Highschools. It’s not really realistic but at the same time it kinda is.

Melizé

Orb 🥺❤️

maya

will do 🫡

mina

no they said it's on pause for a bit

mina

@El yeah same, i also never really ended up stanning wanna one, but i'm so happy for his acting career.

Betsy

I agree! He put his whole heart and soul into his character of Si-eun. It really shows throughout the series. He's so incredibly talented.

mina

did you end up watching the episode?👀

mina

yes, it's a kdrama and i recommend! give it a shot. at least one episode and then see how you feel about it!

Rebecca

To answer Carter's question, Koreans are pretty serious about their CSAT. They can only take it once a year so if you score badly, you have to wait 12 months to retake it. Lots of people take a gap year after graduating high school to retake their CSAT. Obviously not everyone's the same, but for high schoolers that view this as a make or break exam, in combination with the pressure of their parents, peers etc, it's pretty stressful. For example, if you want to be a doctor, there's no pre-med program and your entrance to a good medical school is determined by things like the CSAT. A friend of mine went to after school academies until 11pm and went home to study until like 2AM for months leading up to her exam and she said it was one of the worst periods of her life. On the day of the exam, planes have a no depart/land period during the English listening part of the exam, construction is paused, schools are closed, public offices open later so there's less traffic/people on the streets, police escort late students. It's kinda wild but I heard the influence of the CSAT has been fluctuating so i don't really know how much pull the exam has now, but I'm sure it's still super important

Rebecca

Solo leveling is also a webtoon if you want another example!

mina

yeah same idk if it's still like this but i remember reading somewhere that CSAT is THE test which dictates their future basically and that they pretty much spend their whole lives up to then preparing for it... crazy🤯🤯 going to cram school after the actual school would be the end of me istg

Rebecca

ill read it after i binge the show!!

Mr. John Kagurabachi

We are never getting orb it’s always the lowest in the popularity votes 🥀 😔

Rebecca

ikr, my mom said i would've never made it in korea lmaoo. But honestly, school is basically our 9-5 in high school, so why would i want to work overtime?? i could never

Ikky

Never seen Mckay so hyped 🤣

a_daichi

I see 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ thanks!

Mr. John Kagurabachi

What an absolutely amazing pilot episode. I’m actually so stunned. Call me a glazer but it’s reminiscent of Breaking Bad and GoT. Peak television.

Betsy

Cannon's comment, "Dude, like I just want to take him to Disneyland." It made me smile and chuckle. Yeah my hardworking boy deserves the whole world and a chance of pure happiness. I felt so bad for him at the beginning when I first watched this pilot episode back in 2022.

Betsy

Glad you loved it, Vongola. You're in for one heck of a ride! It gets even better from here on out :)

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Yeah it was amazing! The MC has such an intriguing personality, but I hope he isn’t edgy for the sake of it. I’m put off by webtoons because it’s usually a toxic power fantasy with Korean god complex vibes and no storyline. I don’t like how there is no nuance. It’s like Korea’s version of Japanese Isekai slop. Show has potential to be one of my favorites all time but I hope it doesn’t lean into that genre.

Mr. John Kagurabachi

NGL I was expecting slop but I came out with gold. It’s like buying bitcoin in 2016. I’m television blessed 💯

Betsy

A while back ago, I was watching a vlog on a Korean YouTuber that's also a student and it was very eye opening how serious they take their academics and studies there. I'm adopted from Seoul but I was always curious how school might of been had I of not lived in the U.S.A. but in Korea instead. It was absolutely insane. They engrave it in their heads early on to be the very best and to not falter even just the slightest. They put so much immense pressure on them and hold them to such a pedestal. Poor things, I would of been stressed and burnt out doing that day in and day out non-stop. I seriously can't imagine staying at school until 10 pm.... When do they sleep? :-(

Betsy

Couldn't agree more! He was locked in but so were the rest of them. It was very satisfying to watch. Haha

HaNo0onat

All of us are dead is webtoon too lol And no problem I’m not that knowledgeable about them too

Mr. John Kagurabachi

I’m in the USA and we did cram school after highschool haha.

Betsy

Oh wow really? Thankfully I never had to do that. How was it? Did your hard work pay off in the end? Haha

Mr. John Kagurabachi

My 2nd cousin who lives in Korea spent all his efforts studying. He got into a good school but was unable to land a job after graduating and he had a mental breakdown. He’s been hospitalized for two years. When your sole purpose is academics and you work hard to give your all, but then something inhibits your goal. It’s the most heart breaking/mentally devastating thing to happen. His parents are very supportive of him but Korea has hella comparison issues and cultural sense of shame. The MC being a perfectionist and crashing out felt so real to me.

ether

lmaooo TEACHER, IT WAS HOTDOGS AND KETCHUP DAY I PROMISEE

Mr. John Kagurabachi

It wasn’t that bad. Couple days a week for a hour or two. I only did it to fit in and hang out with my friends haha. It felt hella useless tbh. Just extra practice, not really learning anything. They all ended up going to hella prestigious colleges / ivy league. I’m a broke boy so I’d couldn’t go 🥀

Betsy

Aww I'm sorry you weren't able to go with your friends. But glad it wasn't too bad for you in general. That sucks that it was kind of pointless, though. 😞

Cryptcat

I haven't gotten to that part of my life yet but I've always been "gifted" in academics and have that kind of perfectionist mindset when it comes to school. Honestly it's scary, and sometimes does really suck, but I also can't complain.

lian

i watched weak hero in my first year of uni almost exactly 2 years ago which is around the time i started watching studio gek and now i can’t believe they’re watching it

tanko97

i just woke up and i still can’t believe you guys are watching this, im so hyped for you! this is an amazing kdrama. can you pull a netflix and drop all reactions to this on one day? ahahaha

Barb

weak hero class changed quite a lot with from the webtoon imo - and i mean that in a good way. i think you’ll enjoy it sieun is an incredibly compelling mc

Barb

absolutely not imo.

Saki 🏴‍☠️✨❤️‍🔥

love that we're here rn 🙏🏻 immediately knew cannon was talking about su-ho when he mentioned his goat from weak hero in another reaction lmao - also lk feel like this was one of the best reactions in awhile, obv i like em all, but the energy and commentary on this ep was 🤌🏻✨✨ and loved how yall immediately shifted to attention when the fight with the baseball team started 😂 cannon's "take him to disneyland" comment was so real and funny, and mckays "wish they recommended this to us" was hilarious, lmaooo cant wait for the next drop 🙏🏻🙏🏻 also- ik we're talking about eren, but carter's "i like someone who did genocide" is cray outta context sghdcvh

Alan

Cannon’s shirt kinda raw ngl

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Bro I was also skeptic but trust me give the first episode a try. This gotta be one of the best drops the geks reacted to

Mr. John Kagurabachi

This pilot episode is actually so freaking peak it’s crazy

JAN NARUTO

YESSSSSIIRRRR THANK YOU GEKS!!! LESSGOOO🖊🖊🖊

Saki 🏴‍☠️✨❤️‍🔥

@Floo In a literal sense I think this can be answered! In Korea (and several places in Asia) rather than the students moving from class to class its the teachers that move around, and a lot of the scenes tend to take place during breaks where the teachers are fully outta the classrooms - but if its in a more of a 'where are these teachers mentally to be missing so much of their class dynamics' well that's another thing...lol

TrafalgarMai

Si-eun is a menace 😭 He is the definition of don't mess with the quiet kid 💀

Barb

i watch your guys reactions on youtube all the time but this is the first drama to get me to buy your patreon i love it so much. other than the fact it has two of my fav actors at the moment (hyunwook who is suho and jihoon who is sieun) i love the story. the webtoon has very much a power scaling type of fandom but - even though the fighting is really good - i absolutely love the story and the characters and the friendships they have with each other

Saki 🏴‍☠️✨❤️‍🔥

@Vongola That's awful, I hope he's gradually able to recover and build back into a better mindset eventually! :(( Good to hear his parents are supportive at the very least

Rubyjane

omg, i have been obsessing with season 2 of weak hero this past week...love this 🫰🫰🫰

Frosty

When are we getting breaking bad back? Or honestly any new live action that’s not Korean ( no hate to the Korean shows, it’s just such different content compared to the hundreds of certified classic shows they haven’t seen yet ). Can’t even get hyped for the Andor drops cause they started with season 2 and I haven’t seen the show before 😔 Apes movies were a sick first watch though, but besides that Live actions felt so empty around here for the last month

Georgie

Dammit, this was so good. Now I have to resist watching more so I can watch along with you lads haha

James

Im just so happy bruh idk😭🔥love you guys

saida

I AM YET TO WATCH THIS BUT I AM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!! thank you guys for doing this!!!!

saida

i just woke up and i have a busy day today so i won’t be able to watch this until later but BETSY!!! we did it! they’re finally watching weak hero!

Rubyjane

just watched it and loved you mentioned Thorfinn

mina

15:53 i love how no one questioned the butt slap hahahahahahah

𝓓𝓪𝓷𝓪

I love this show so much. Just finished the reaction. Yeah s2 is all out now, I do love s1 much more than s2 but it was still a fun watch

mina

27:44 "how are they in here right now" rich kids activities lol

mina

to be honest, the guy literally drugged him, he committed a fucking crime. because what if si-eun reacted badly to the drugs? he literally could have died. so compared to that it wouldn't be fair if a little beating would ruin si-eun's chances for college

vicc

he loves kdrama 🤣🤣

dounia

Soon you will understand that those bullies deserve more than this just keep watching

Sasha (Yare Yare Daze)

Cannon and Jack beef with the seat change was crazy. So I think the seat arrangement for the test was decided beforehand because even the smart bully was not in his own seat. It just happened to be Bum-seok sitting behind him. And maybe that's why smart bully had even more reason to target Bum-seok.

Chivi Moon 🌙

When I was in high school and we had the SAT or final exams, we usually weren’t in our normal seats—my teacher would typically change them. I wonder if that was the case here.

mina

it was the same for me, our teacher used to change our seats to prevent us from cheating. never worked tho😂

T

I was Team The Glory because I'd never watched this but man that was a goood pilot episode. Now I want to binge

Miitei

What a good first episode, I kinda want to binge it now lol That Ben Affleck guy and his friends are a piece of crap, ngl I was glad Eun beat him up lol

Bella Putri

I was disappointed that it's not the Glory but after watching this, I might binge Weak Hero

Chalène

You know what we said buddy.The best for the end 😏

Betsy

Yaaaay Saida, it's here!!! Our long awaited day. And their reaction was more than I could have hoped for. Their commentary and theories are always the best! Gosh it feels like a dream... I've watched the reaction so many times now. Lol I have a problem. But I'm so glad they love it so far as you and I thought they would. I'm excited for you!!! Hehe 🥰

Betsy

Hey SAIDA! Wasn't it a great present to wake up to? :) Yes our dream came true of them watching our favorite kdrama!!! I had chills the whole time. It fely surreal. I'm being a bit dramatic lol I'm such a glazer and nerd for Weak Hero :) But yeah, it was so worth the wait!!! You're going to absolutely love their reaction! Gosh, I love them. They really are the best. 🤭 I'm in high anticipation for episode 2 now!!! It goes even harder. This show is a masterpiece.

Nico

If I was Si-eun, I would crash out part 2 too when Su-ho made it a laughing matter, even though he didnt know the circumstances of Si-euns crash out. Cant imagine spending so much time to study and then was targeted by the bullies for literally NO reason at all. To be fair, a part of reason why Su-ho stopped Si-eun was also cuz he knows deep inside hes a good guy and he doesnt want a good guy like that to make the situation worse. Im actually glad yall picked Weak Hero up LMAO. I watched it at some point but got lazy and never continued, now I have a new motivation to resume. I did hear they changed a lot of the events and character dynamics in s2 compared to the webtoon though. Cant say Im a fan of that....especially when my fav character was done dirty. Smh

SirCatelot

Was that hyukoh in the intro? love that band

Sasha (Yare Yare Daze)

It sounded just like them. I think this artist Meego is copying them like crazy. It sounds very good though so cannot even hate😂

E L

Rewatched the reaction and i love how Mckay is just so hyped 😂

Mia

When season 1 of this show first came out, it was my top kdrama of that year, which isn’t normal for me because i prefer romance over action/story. Now S2 Happened, and it has also became my favorite kdrama of 2025. Yall are in for a masterpiece of a show!! I’ll only say these 2 things without spoiling anything. 1.) Even though Sieun is my favorite character, Suho will forever be the GOAT. & 2.) When you’re watching this show, just remember that Sieun is a lunatic. I won’t explain further but that boy is CRAZY and i love every second of his shenanigans!! He’s my favorite character for a reason Excited to rewatch for the millionth time with yall!!

Rebecca

No yeah, it's kinda crazy. I'm Korean American, so I always thought about how different I would be if I grew up in an environment like Korea too (still happy to be in america ngl lol) but it's actually really interesting to learn about. I'm sure not all students study to the extent that this MC does since everyone's different, but I know there's a ton of societal pressure and stuff too that exacerbate the issue. My friend said she'd power nap all the time - on the subway, between classes, sometimes she'd sleep on her chair with the lights all on so she could start studying when she woke up. It was cute in the sense that her family would go to the temple and pray for her to do well. But honestly, it would've sucked the soul out of me. I think the only time I've ever been that stressed was when I took ochem 2 and that was one class, I can't imagine having to study for an 8 hour exam

Rebecca

my mom tried to put me in a weekend type of cram school too, but thankfully we decided it was a waste of money lol - still had a math tutor though, but i actually needed that

Betsy

Yeah Becca, it would be such a different life for both of us. That's cute but also kind of sad about your friend. She sacrificed so much for her family. But that makes me have a lot of respect for her, too. I definitely would be drained. Hope her hard work paid off in the end and she was able to achieve everything she wanted. It's very admirable of her to focus on her studies to that level. And I've been here all my life pretty much. Therefore, I'd definitely feel like a fish out of water in a foreign place. Since I'm not familar with the culture and all the customs. I started my Kdrama journey to help me learn more bout about it, though. I also started listening and watching Kpop too to help with it. Sorry to get off subject and for rambling about myself too much and made this way longer than intended. It's just nice to meet someone who I can relate to in that regard. And glad you realized early on cram school wasn't for you so, you didn't waste your precious time and energy on something that wasn't going benefit you long term. Also not going to lie, but I'm guilty of getting FOMO when I watch stuff about Korea. I get a little envious which I know isn't good. I'm thankful for the family, friends, and life I have here in America. It's just that I feel torn a bit at times. I guess I overshared a little and got a little too personal on here, my bad whoops lol

ohhh this reaction more than lived up to what i imagined!! i am SO HYPE for you to experience the absolute RIDE that weak hero is. I AM SO EXCITED!!!! si-eun and suho for the win broooo!

saida

IT'S HERE!! i started doubting we were even gonna get it, let alone so soon–I SHOULD HAVE BELIEVED!!! agreed on all points, i'm so excited for them to keep going, they're literally not ready! GIRL I DON'T BLAME YOU FOR REWATCHING! it still feels too good to be true! they're already calling suho their goat and I KNEW they were gonna be satisfied with si-eun getting his lick back, especially mckay. the cast is already getting compliments on their acting too?!?! sigh, i can genuinely die happy now :)

Betsy

Yes it's going to be epic! I knew you would love their reaction so much. And this might not be a popular opinion. But I really loved season 2. It felt like a masterpiece. I'm so hyped for the geks to see all the greatness of my favorite characters along with this compelling emotional story that stays with you long after you finish. I keep rewatching their reaction to the Intro song. It was so funny and wholesome. 🥰

Betsy

Yes I can die happy too. Suho is everyone's goat. I knew they would love him and Si-eun's acting is insane. But really, all the acting in this show is so good!!! Everyone did a phenomenial job. For real, I love how hyped McKay was as well as the rest of the guys. It was a literal dream to witness. It does feel too good to be true :) Nope they are in for a wild ride!!! They don't even know. RIP my ears haha There's so many hype moments and some twist and turns. However, I'm fully seated to join the ride. I wasn't sure if their reaction to Weak Hero would happen either but I was hopeful! And the glorious day came and it was very rewarding and worth the wait lol

saida

it was THE BEST present to wake up to! i was smiling from eat to ear the whole time too! GIRLIE I FEEL THE SAME ABOUT IT FEELING SURREAL!! there is no such thing as glazing for weak hero, any and all praise is DESERVED PRAISE! you were right, their reaction was everything i thought it would be and more, the geks truly are the best. we shall both be sat for the episode 2 drop (hopefully soon!!). MASTERPIECE IS CORRECT!

saida

i KNEW YOU WOULD LOVE SEASON 2 ONCE YOU KEPT GOING!! it was the perfect balance of nostalgia for what was in season 1 AND i was invested in the new friendships and dynamics and park freaking jihoon still made my heart hurt with his acting and those eyesssss! i'm very glad to hear you enjoyed season 2, now i REALLY need them to stop playing around and announce a season 3! AND YES, as soon as the intro song started playing, i knew they were gonna love it! they're ticking all the boxes with this one already it seems :)))

saida

i'd say continuing this show is definitely a shout, call me delusional but i'm confident you won't regret it by the end :)

Betsy

I fully agree! I loved the new characters even the villians, their crazy demon aura lol. The storyline, and his new friendships to help with all his pain and the hurdles he's faced was beautiful to watch. It felt refreshing but it still had moments where it reminded me of season 1. Indeed, Park Jihoon and his expressive eyes give off such much damn emotion and feeling, it's actually insane! His acting continues to amaze me.... wow. I love him. He was made to play Si-eun's character. I couldn't imagine anyone else doing it. I'm ready for sesson 3 too!!! They definitely left an opening for there to possibly be one. That's for sure! So, I guess we'll have to wait and see. Fingers crossed :)

Rebecca

Yeah, she works at Samsung, and she’s way happier now! She said it was horrible, but she had fun studying with her friends and was really proud of herself after. I guess it’s kinda like trauma bonding in a way lmao. And no of course, I totally get it Betsy - no need to apologize. It’s kind of hard growing up when you feel torn between two different identities. When I was younger, I felt FOMO since I'm from the south and went to a majority white school. My parents didn't teach me how to properly speak Korean or how to use chopsticks since they didn’t want me to get bullied, and I felt a lot of disconnect to my Korean side. When I was younger, I dived into Kpop, K-dramas, and anime to feel some sort of link and I think a lot of Asian Americans used tv and music to do that, so I’m happy there’s more diversity in media now. I still remember the first time I saw BoA and my mind kinda collapsed on itself lol. I don’t know how old you are but for me, I really re-connected to my Asian side when I started college. I meet more people, eat different foods, and it’s a fun experience getting outside your bubble! As I get older, I kind of feel more relaxed about my identity, and the things I used to be insecure about are actually funny to talk about now. I used to feel so awkward around “real” Koreans and other asians since I felt like I wasn’t asian enough but now it’s super fun! And I’m happy that you have family and friends, but I understand the FOMO feeling and the insecurities since it’s kind of hard to get over, but I’m sure that you’ll get to a point where it doesn’t bother you! There’s no need to feel guilty about feeling left out or even envious, it’s totally a normal experience! and oversharing is a bonding experience haha so no worries!

babystarcandy

ngl I keep refreshing your page for a new episode LMAO. watched this a few times because it is so good with your reactions, did not disappoint

Tami

Season 2 was so good and fun😩

Betsy

Aww, I'm glad she's much happier and content working at Samsung. And yeah that's good that she felt proud of her accomplishment. It was well deserved. Aww it is like trauma bonding in a way I guess lol. Thank you, it's fun to bond and connect with others. Sometimes I just feel like I'm too open to people at times. However, I like to be social and meet new people. For sure, college is a great way to meet more Koreans/Asians. I met a few when I was in college. It was fun. Also, I used to go to adoption meetings to meet the adoptees and connect with them every so often. I can totally understand feeling out of place in school growing up. Some of the students could be a little racist and just not the nicest in the world. I do feel torn between two worlds/cultures where sometimes I feel like an alien not completely fitting in anywhere, 100%. I'm in 30s but I have some health issues. So, I've been focused on that. I'm glad it's better for you now and you learned to get past it over time. I'm trying to but it's hard. It kind of feels like trauma in a way since I can't meet my biological parents. I think about them a lot. I always hope they're safe, happy and in good health. I watched a movie called Seoul Searching when it was on Netflix and it hit close to home. I felt connected to the characters. Aww that's awesome! I love listening to Kpop to relieve stress bit lately I've been more into Kdramas and Anime. I've always loved Anime since I was a kid. I've watched so much content. But yeah that makes you use that to help connect more with your roots. But yeah, I understand. I would be starstrucked seeing Boa in real-life too. She's such a legend and is one of the Queens of Vocals. She's definitely a veteran artist. I've listened to a few of her songs and enjoyed them. As much as I love Kpop, I've really been into Korean-Indie lately. However, this artist isn't in that cateogory but instead is considering a Kpop singer. It's HEIZE. She's my favorite. I could listen to her singing all day. Goodness I made that long. Yikes lol :)

Betsy

Sorry not trying to be pushy or anything, but I wonder if we'll get episode 2 today. I must confess I've watched ya'lls reaction an unhealthy amount of times now. It's just too freaking good!!! The enthusiasm, facial expressions, the hype, the energy, humor, overall commentary/discussion at the end. Everything was so enjoyable. Thank you guys! You all are truly the goats!!

Barb

i think most people that didn’t like s2 are webtoon fans that were unhappy about the changes/things and characters they cut. personally i was fine with it. i know some people thought it was rushed but i think if you just go based off the show only and not the webtoon it wasn’t. them removing and changing things doesn’t mean they rushed it. overall i like s1 more but s2 was amazing imo

Rebecca

No yeah, I get it - it was a weird feeling of not really being an American growing up but also not Korean enough. It’s an interesting dynamic for sure, and sometimes the insecurities can pop up when I meet rude people, but thankfully there’s not many that I meet. I think it’s great that you’re open! I love when people are more open since it makes conversation way easier haha. But that’s so cool that you had adoption meetings. I feel like it would be fun talking with people who understand you, comparing your thoughts and what your lives are like, and just talking in general. I’m sure it was hard, and I can’t really comprehend the feelings you felt, especially about your biological parents. I know that it has to come with a lot of complicated feelings that you probably know way more about than me, but I hope your biological parents are healthy and doing well too. It sucks that you feel that way about not completely fitting in, but I know I’ve felt that way a lot and it’s totally valid but still sucks if that makes sense. I’m sure it’s a more intense feeling too, especially as an adoptee since there’s kind of a feeling of loss with that. I’m not the most emotionally intelligent person, so let me know if anything I say anything wrong but I hope you know that I hope you feel better and that your health gets better!! I’ll make sure to watch Seoul Searching too, I just looked it up and saw it was on Amazon Prime! Honestly, sometimes media is such a good way to have a cathartic release or just connect with a side of yourself, besides it just being fun. Personally, I love anything that can make me cry lol. And yes, I loved BoA and Kpop growing up. I kinda fall in and out of it, there are times where I really like it and other times where I wanna listen to anything else haha - I think part of it is the nostalgia, so I don’t really listen to new songs unless I personally think they’re good. But good music is good music and I love a lot of Heize’s songs! I’m also more into K-indie and Krnb too haha. Have you heard of Penomeco and slchld? I’ve been really into them lately!

Chivi Moon 🌙

This is my fourth time watching this reaction! Honestly, you guys have been my favorite reactors by far compared to other reaction channels who have watched episode 1.

Betsy

Aww it's so fun to talk with you, Becca and build a connection like this. The human connection is a very powerful thing. But yeah, it is really painful at times. It's that constant feeling of not knowing.... And wondered what it? And I've always been a very honest open person. My Korean name is Yoo Hye Jung. It means honest and true. I guess it fits me. My birth mother was a teenager when she had me so, she couldn't take of me properly and wanted me to have a better life. She was doing what she thought was best at the time. Oh, that's cool Seoul Searching is on Amazon Prime. I think you would love it. It kind of reminded me of Breakfast Club in a way just because of the quirky characters. I'm not sure if you've seen that movie before but I'm big fan of John Hughes movies. And I am sucker for sad emotionally driven stories as well. Also to help get my mind off things, I love listening to jazz music, writing and reading poetry as well as going antiquing. I think I'm an old soul... I've been told I'm a kindred spirit. I also enioy reading manhwa webtoons and manga sometimes manhua. I totally agree media is a great escape to go into another world. Aw I'm relieved. I was worried I was rambling or not making much sense with what I was saying. I think what you said sounded perfect. But thank you for being so thoughtful and considerate. It's really fun getting to know you. How neat! We have similar taste in music as well. I go in and out of my kpop phase too. I'm more of a casual listener. Sometimes, it gets too repetitive. Oh cool, I do like Penomeco and I think I've heard of slchld. I've only checked out a few of the songs of Penomeco. Sorry, you'll have to remind me of a few of their songs lol And I just really love the chill vibes of K-Indie music the most. It's very calming and healing to the mind. I highly recommend checking out Rio and Ripley. Their voices are so heavenly like Heize's :)

Johnny

We need a “rat” counter at the corner of the screen for this entire watch through, I’m serious

Rebecca

I'm glad your mom did what's best for you even if it was very complicated! And that's a beautiful name too - I know we’re just talking but I agree that it’s very fitting! And yes, I love the Breakfast Club - I only know a few John Hughes movies, but I've watched all the big ones like Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Sixteen Candles. I had a 80s/90s movies phase in high school haha so I'm sure I'll enjoy Seoul Searching! Do you have any other movie recommendations? I can handle anything but horror lol. And RIGHT!! There’s nothing else like watching something and bawling my eyes out haha. My brother’s the same way - he loves a good tear jerker lol. I tried getting into poetry, but it just wasn’t for me. It’s something I try every couple of years just to see if I’ll like it but it never works lol. I’m more into the fantasy stories - anything fantasy and I’ll eat it up. But I’ve never really listened to jazz music before, if you could give me some recommendations? And antiquing sounds super cool - it’s always fun when people have hobbies that I never think about! What are your favorite things to antique? I go thrift shopping, but I’ve never done antiquing before - it sounds interesting! Yeah of course, I’m happy that you’re relieved! And don’t be worried about rambling, I’m the same way and have to edit myself lmao. But it’s cool that people can get to know each other this way, under the Studio Gek’s patreon comments lol! And no yeah, I’m the same about Kpop - it was really fun listening to growing up, but nowadays Kpop is a little too loud for me and I like more mellow stuff. I still do run to Twice though, ngl, it gets my energy up. I feel a little too old for it sometimes, but some of my closest friends still enjoy it so I’ll hear something I like every once in a while. Yes! I’m more into slchld, but his songs are super good - very chill! You might like: you won’t be there for me, pieces, huge mood, my stargirl etc. He sings in a lot of English but if you want a some good Korean songs, oceanfromtheblue is really good too! I like his songs like: hope you do, Sherlock, Scent, etc. For Penomeco, I really like Actually Pt. 2, Aurora, ICN, etc. Honestly, I love music - Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, etc. I listen to basically anything as long as it sounds good haha. You’ll have to recommend me some good songs by Rio and Ripley - I’ve never heard of them before but I’ll listen to them on my drive tomorrow!

Betsy

Why thank you :) I do like the name for its uniqueness. I wish I could speak Korean fluently and read hangul. But it's kind of tricky since I'm not used to it. And yeah, I know it must have been a hard decision for her to make. But ultimately, she wanted a better life for me in the long run. She was being responsible and self-less. Sometimes I wonder if she thinks of me though. Yes, the Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, and Sixteen Candles are classics. Out of the 3, Sixteen Candles is my favorite. I always forget about Ferris Bueller's Day off. I think I've only watched it once. 80's and 90's movies are fun to watch. I love the music in both. And since I was born 1990, I really love the 90s. It almost feels euphoric when I watch movies, show and listen to music from that era lol Yeah you probably will. I liked a lot of the actors in it too. I recognized some from Kdramas I've watched in the past. Hmm... a good movie? Let me think a minute. I recommend 20th Century Girl on Netflix. I love Kim Yoo Jung Byeon Woo-seok. They're two of my favorite actors. The movie has a lot of emotional depth. Haha, I love horror. I used to eat it up. I still watch some horror movies but nearly as much as I did when I was younger. I have to pace myself. However, that doesn't count for zombie related things/dystopian movies. That's my jam! Yeah I'm the same way. I feel so moved yet at the same time wrecked when it comes to sad films... Aww that's okay. Poetry isn't for everyone. That's good you've given it a try every so often. I've just always loved word play and creating imagery through my thoughts. I've always had a passion for the art and also writing in general. It's very healing/ freeing. I love fantasy stories as well. I've always been a fan of mermaids, fairies, dragons, fantasy folklore, etc. Speaking of fantasy, I've been into Chinese Xianxas lately. I get so lost in the imaginative worlds/elaborate stories. I recommend Love Game:Eastern Fantasy and Love Between Fairy and Devil if you can get past the lead actresse's voice. It's kind of baby coded. Lol I've always loved Chinese, Japanese, and Korean Dramas. I've watched more Korean Dramas out of the rest. I've watched a lot. I love the storyline, emotionally driven characters, and the creative plots. It feels vastly different than western media. With Jazz, I recommend looking up on Youtube, where you get the daily jazz songs on loop. I listened to it everyday. Antiquing is where you look at all vintage furniture, home goods, jewelry, various decorative pieces, books, vintage toys, sometimes even clothes depending on the shop. There's a little bit of everything. Also I've never been real lucky with thrift shopping but I do enjoy that too on occasion. My favorite thing to antique... That's a tough question. I guess it would have to be jewelry and home decor. I agree, I've met so many amazing wonderful people on this platform that I wouldn't otherwise because I'm a homebody and can't go out as much due to my health problems. I have a hearing disease called Hyperacusis as well as Tinnitus. I got them both from a bad ear infection back in 2020 during COVID. So, I'm more social on here than I am in my everyday life. I'm thankful for Studio Gek's Patreon. And with Kpop, I started getting into it back in 2017 when I discovered BTS, Blackpink, EXO, Twice, etc. I was a big BTS fan until I outgrew their music. Now I'm more into NCT which is my favorite Kpop group but I also love Stray Kids and ATEEZ. I'm a multistan. I like to check up new songs each year and see if I like it. It's a hit or miss honestly. But lately K- Indie has resonated more with me. For Ripley, I recommend her album: Dawn Diary and for Rio, I recommend her album: Perennial Green. Sometimes, I feel to old for Kpop. That's why K-Indie is a good balance for me. I love slow ballad songs the most ones that evoke so much emotion and yearning... I'll have to check out your music recommendations too. I love R&B but Hip Hop is cool too for a nice twist. Sorry it takes me a while to type up my long comments lol Goodness, that was way longer than I initially intended it to be. Oops lol

Rebecca

I’m sure she thinks of you, I mean who wouldn’t. I feel like such a big decision would be something I’d think of often, how you grew up, who you became, what your personality’s like - I’m sure she thinks of you. And yeah, I feel like I understand Korean better than I can speak it. Same way with reading, I can read it better than I can write it lol - my mom says that I'm at a 3rd grade level but I'm okay with that at this point haha. It's hard to really learn it unless you're using it every day. Yes! There’s a different vibe with movies pre-2000, and a lot of them stand the test of time haha. I don’t know why they’re so enjoyable, but I agree about the music - I really love the soundtrack to pulp fiction! Honestly don’t know how you do horror, so many people love it but I can only watch the bad ones so I don’t freak out lol. I’m okay with zombie and dystopian movies, but they kind of get repetitive so there’s really nothing that catches my attention with them. Oh, I loved Kim Yoo-jung in the Moon Embracing the Sun so I’ll definitely check out 20th century girl. To be honest, I kinda of fell out of love with K-dramas a few years ago, even though I grew up on them. My friends love them and try to get me to watch them, so I’ve recently decided to try so hopefully I’ll love them again! I’ll try 20th century girl after I finish binging weak hero haha. I’ve heard about a lot of good ones like moving, when life gives you tangerines, and etc. So I really need to watch them! I’m happy poetry is healing for you! But yeah, poetry is kind of like sports or coconut water to me - you either love it or you don’t haha. And same, I love learning about the different folklore, mythology, and legends from different countries and seeing how the past thought about the world. I’ve heard of Chinese Xianxas, especially about the MoDaoZuShi series so I’ll definitely check them out! Love game in Eastern Fantasy kind of reminds me of an otome isekai so that’ll be fun to watch! And Love Between Fairy and Devil kind of gives me a My Girlfriend is a Gumiho vibe lol. Thanks for the recommendations! No yeah, I listen to a lot of music compilations to help me sleep or study, so I’ll definitely try them! And yeah, thrifting takes so much time to find a good piece, but it’s super enjoyable - but I’ll check out some vintage shops near me, thrifting and antiquing sound kind of similar! I’m sorry about your hearing problems, that really sucks that covid can do something like that. I remember my friend had altered taste and smell for a year and a half after she got covid. She had to throw away her shampoo and conditioner and everything she ate tasted metallic and sour - the only thing she could eat was spicy food for some reason. It was my first time learning that covid can affect you for such a long time, but I do hope it gets better or that treatment gets better. It sounds really hard and disruptive to live with and that really sucks but I’m happy that you have people both online and offline. Same, I think I first listened to BoA, BAP, 2NE1, TVZQ - I was a really big 2nd gen fan and then got into EXO and BTS, but nowadays I don’t really Stan anyone, just listen to songs and see if I like them. My friend used to be a big SVT stan, and got me into them, but I don’t really enjoy their new music unfortunately. I like a couple of NCT dream songs, but their group is a little complicated for me to get into lol. And no yeah, I totally get it - I used to be a big fan, like streaming, twitter, etc I did all of it except buy merch bc I didn’t have money. But now, I just listen to the music if I’m in the mood. And yeah, I have a 2 hour drive tomorrow so it’ll be fun listening to new music - thank you! And no you’re totally good, I’m the same way lol. I write way more than I expect too so you’re totally good lol.

Betsy

Aww yeah you're right. I'm sure does too. I always wonder what she looks like, sounds like, what her favorite things are. And you seem like such a bright lovely person. It's neat learning about all your different interests. It's fun learning about someone new. And yeah pre-eaely 2000s was such a vibe and magical time. So much nostalgia. I've only seen bits and pieces of Pulp Fiction. I know it's a cult classic though. So, I'll have to check it out. And I was so desentized to blood and gore back then. It didn't bother me much. Then later on, it started to affect me more where I felt sick with too much copious amounts of endless violence, torture, and gore. I stick with more suspenseful and psychological thrillers now mostly. Aww that's understandable. A lot of blends into the next when it comes to horror. Lol Yes Kim Yoo-Jung is so talented. I loved her in Love in the Moonlight. I know Moon Embracing the Sun is a classic too but it was a bit too melodramatic for me. Anyway, I think you would really enjoy 20th Century Girl. I love the setting is in the 90s. I had a kdrama burnout where I lost interests but it could be because, I've watched so many. Study Group got into them again. I watched some of When Life Gives You Tangerines but haven't finished it yet. And yeah mythology and folkfore is cool to watch with Chinese Dramas. But my favorite Chinese Drama is Meteor Garden. Wish Netflix didn't remove it. Antiquing is a lot like thrifting kind of a similar theme. Thank you, COVID didn't cause it but it certainly didn't help either. I've tried some treatments but they hurt. I'm so embarrassed and ashamed to say I still love at home due to my debilating conditon and can't work anywhere. It feels scary and it's tiring too. Also, I never was good at sports much more the artsy type. I love poetry and looking at art. I recommend the illustration artbooks on ebay. A new one comes out every year. I love looking at all the different art mediums/styles. That's cool about your friend with Kpop. If I love a group, I'll order their album and order the concert on bluray. But yeah Kpop is such a mixed bag. Either you love the song or you don't. I like more of the dark edgy style songs instead of the cutesy pop and NCT is complicated especially after the addition with NCT Wish. I could remember the group members before that. Now I struggle. And I like a lot of the different groups and artists you mentioned but more in a casual way. Yeah I had COVID back in 2022 and it was not pleasant especially since I have asthma. I couldn't smell hardly anything at all and my food tasted like metal too. It felt very bizarre. Hope your friend is better now and thank you. I'm trying to be strong. However, it's very challenging and sometimes I just want to give up.

Anya

Honestly! I don't know how many times I rewatched 41:00 & on. It's unhealthy lmao Best reaction & commentary! The vibes from them & this community definitely made it a better rewatch. It was soo good that The Glory's loss doesn't hurt as much 😂😂 We need a schedule!!

Rebecca

Thank you! And it's so fun talking to you too and I love how you can really connect with people because of the internet haha No yeah, I like a lot of older films but I have a list of movies, tv shows, and anime that I still need to watch and pulp fiction was one of them that I crossed off a couple months ago and I loved the sound track - I’d definitely look it up! I’m okay with violence and gore, but it is def easier if it’s animated, live action can get too real. I haven’t seen love in the moonlight - I think I stopped watching kdramas around 2015 (my first re-entry was Squid Games and even then, I didn’t watch S2, and now Weak Hero. I’m thinking about watching S2 of squid games and all of us are dead with studio gek soon though). I think part of it was the melodramatics you mentioned, including the Moon Embracing the Sun haha, and sometimes I couldn’t get into the acting or certain plot devices ngl. But I had a phase like that with anime too, where I stopped watching it, but got back into it, so Im gonna keep my mind open and try again. I just watched the trailer to Study Group and it seems fun! I’ll add it to my list too! I don’t think you should feel embarrassed or ashamed, honestly everyone goes at different paces and have different circumstances so I hope you don’t worry about it too much. I’m finishing college late since I had to take 2 and a half years off for mental health and other reasons, so I totally understand how you feel. I sometimes get embarrassed, but I try to keep myself positive and I feel that as long as I keep going, there’s nothing to be ashamed of. I’m lucky that my friends and family are supportive. But I'm sorry though that you feel that way, it does suck, especially when you compare yourself or expect judgement from others, but I hope you’re not too hard on yourself. And I’m sorry the treatments are painful, it seems really difficult. Even if it’s scary and tiring with everything going on, I hope you’re doing well! I’ve tried coloring books, and I’ve been thinking about doing water coloring. But my brother’s more into art than me since he grew up drawing and he’s really into art museums and stuff like that. But no yeah, every once in a while I’m really into the darker styles of Kpop but I usually like the more cutesy and high energy stuff haha. I used to get more invested into the idols but now, I don’t really pay attention unless my friend tells me about it. I feel like that's normal, but I always have a soft spot for the people I used to stan haha.

Betsy

Hi, Anya yeah it's so good! It's now one of their top reactions for me. It's probably number 1. It checks all the boxes. Now, I can only imagine what they'll think of episode 2 when they love episode 1 this much. It makes me very excited. The geks loving Weak Hero makes my heart feel so warm along with all the overflowing love and appreciation from the fans and even the new ones. And glad your Glory loss doesn't hurt as much now. 😂 I've probably rewatched this video more than 10 times.... Haha Yes! I couldn't agree more. This amazing drama deserves a schedule. Please guys 🥰🙏🤗

Imagine how much of the things in these shows that could be prevented if the teachers just did their job 😭

Bro watch bloodhound it’s a much better show

Keeka 🍰

I keep rewatching this. SOS

It's bad like them going undercover in a bright American sports car which stands out amongst the dark Korean cars.

Just watched this and it’s such a good episode. What’s the schedule for this show? if there’s one

Irie

I just watched S1 & S2 this past week and it’s TOP TIER! So… to see my fav reactors start this show too, truly made my day! Excited to rewatch it with you guys while the show’s greatness is still fresh in my mind.

Betsy

Sorry girl, I was tired last night and end up falling asleep. I'm glad you have a good support system and lots of love around you. That makes a huge difference. I truly appreciate your kind and supporting words. Thank you, Becca. It means a lot you saying that. I try to keep my head up but I feel a lot of things, mentally, emotionally, and physically. Sounds bother me and even hurt when I'm around too much noise and loudness such as everyday sounds. I get depressed and sad a lot. But yeah it is amazing how the internet enables us to get out of our comfort zone. It's been such a joy talking with you. And I have a list of movies and tv shows I want to watch, too. I'll have to check out Pulp Fiction. I've heard a lot of good things about the movie. There's just too many good ones out there as well as anime. It's hard to choose. You do better than me. Live action gore is more real and can be more disturbing but somehow anime is easier to watch when it comes to all that. I've watched a lot of horror anime in the past. But now, I like to mostly stick with fantasy, slice of life, romance, comedy, action type anime. Yeah Love in the Moonlight was really good. I'm also a big fan of Park Bo-Gum. I really loved Kim Yoo-Jung in My Demon. She was adorable with my other favorite actor, Song Kang. I have a lot of favorites, though such Lee Do-Hyun and Go Minsi as well as Park Jihoon and Choi Hyunwook I got burnt out from watching too many kdramas. Sometimes there's a lot of tropes, repetitve storylines. It feels like they use the same formula and come off a bit corny at times. I really hate aegyo and find it cringy. Therefore, I go in and out of kdramas. It made me switched to some Chinese fantasy Dramas. However, I feel like Korean ones have better acting overall. But what got me back into kdramas was Study Group, rewatching Weak Hero and then watching the second season. I was blown away. I finished All of Us of Are Dead With the guys as well as Squid Games a while back ago. They make every watch so much better. I definitely recommend you watching it with them. It's so fun. You're very sweet. Reading your comments have helped me to feel a little better about my situation. Just with my age, I feel alienated, isolated, and I get a deep feeling of shame, regret. It feels like I'm behind everyone else who have life long goals and steady careers at this stage of their life. Aww I wish you the best of luck in your college endeavors! That's great. It's okay to start late. You're right, everyone goes at their own pace since we're all different. I try to remember that but I'm not good at staying mindful. I have a lot of self-doubt, low confidence, low self-esteem. And unfortunately, I had to stop at the beginning of the treatments because, it hurt too much. I'm scared if I go back that it'll only make things worse. Sorry this was heavy. Hope I didn't weigh you down. Aww watercolors are pretty neat. I'm not that good at art anymore. Aww that's cool your brother is good at it though. You should try watercolors if that's what you really want to do and are passionate about. I'm better with making up words and rhyming with poetry. But painting can be very therapeutic as well. I was always more into sketching when I would dabble in art. And with Kpop, my favorites are NCT, Stray Kids and ATEEZ but I don't always like the music. I get bored a lot. I love the experimental sound of NCT but my favorite style is R&B. That's why I stick with more softer music a lot. Aww that's good they you still go back to older groups you used to stan. I feel too old for Kpop at times, too. Also, I feel like a fake Korean at times like an imposter. Hope I didn't talk about myself too much or get too personal with the details. I try to be careful with what I share on the internet. But I feel more comfortable discussing stuff on here. I made this too long again. I tried to edit some but it still was too lengthy and all over the place. Haha

I’m Tired

rewatching for my sanity

Betsy

I'm really hoping for episode 2 today. It's so good!! Can't wait to see yalls reaction. Also hope there will be a schedule and we get an episode two times a week possibly or two episodes per drop :)

ether

McKay said it will probably be the same schedule as all of us are dead, but council gek have to decide😭I would love another episode this weekend…

Betsy

Same! I'm craving for another episode. Aww when did be say that? Darn without a schedule, It gets so spaced out and takes a while. And true they have to decide 😢

ether

He said it on discord that they’ll let us know the schedule when they get to discuss it!

Betsy

I understand. Sorry I'm not trying to be pushy. I just really love this show and their reaction was sooo good! Thank you ☺️

Anya

Your excitement is so contagious! It makes me excited lol I'm sure they clicked next episode right after because how could you not?! & I'm positive they're loving it so far! Ignore my The Glory comments I'm just being dramatic haha This was definitely better to start with! It's just so funny how surprised they are at how good it is. Like yes, welcome to Kdramas! Soo many hidden gems!!

Betsy

Aww thanks girl! I just really love this show. It's my favorite kdrama of all time. Glad I got you pumped up lol I bet they did too. I wouldn't of been able to resist. Yeah I know they're loving it. Agreed! There are way too many hidden treasures in the Kdrama world. I still feel like I'm dreaming. I'm excited for them to see even more masterpieces. Aww it's okay. And yeah I think they picked the perfect choice to start with. I also can't wait for them to see all the epicness of season 2. I've been kind of obsessed with it lately. Whoaah I can't contain my excitement :)

akirasuzuki

Yup there goes the, "where's the teacher??" question 😂 there is none in these korean dramas lol and if there is, usually they come last min or ignore the problem since the bully is usually some rich kid or something. Yall gonna see a different way of bullying in korean dramas. They def rile you up "He always looks like he's about to cry" felt that comment 🥺 his eyes rly show emotion

def

😭💀

def

Goldyz

"Pause" cope

Evelyn

Feels nice rewatching the first season after so long, I just finished season two.

wally

this show is so peak 🙏

Rebecca

Nah you’re good don’t worry about it - we all have different schedules so rlly ur good! It sucks that the every day stuff hurts - especially when you’re able to compare the before and after. Even though it’s like that, I’m happy that you can focus on your health and get more adjusted to everything. It makes sense to get depressed and sad, especially when it feels like things or even your own body is working against you, but I hope you can find a good level of new normal and find a way that makes things hurt less. And same, I enjoy talking to you too! And yes, I love my parents and my friends - I’m a big homebody too, but spending time with them makes me realize how much I love people haha. I usually drive to meet everyone in the middle every Sunday and/or Saturday, when I don’t work, so it’s really nice to see them when I can! I really enjoyed Pulp Fiction, but I can see why it wouldn’t be for everyone though. I watched it with no expectations and it was a super enjoyable to watch it that way, and the dialogue was so good - I loved the writing. The acting was great and it was funnier than I expected. But I really loved the music - I sound like a broken record, but it’s a great soundtrack. No yeah, I love the fantasy, romance, comedy, and action too. I really like the psychological stuff too. To be honest, my brother likes the slice of life stuff more than me, but I still enjoy it - I just prefer the more plot based stories. I think the only thing I can’t get into is horror which you’re better than me haha. I liked Park Bogum in Reply 1988 - but I have a soft spot for reply 1988 in general, and I heard good things about Record of Youth. My friend really liked a lot of the actors you mentioned in Sweet Home, and I actually have that on my list too. Idk if you’ve seen this one, but she recommended me Beyond Evil - I don’t know anything about it but she says the acting is good and really liked Yeo Jin goo in it. But no yeah, there are a lot of tropes I dislike - especially in the romance genre like the love triangles, unnecessary miscommunication, rich/mean guy with naive/hardworking girl, etc - hopefully it’s changed so I’ll keep an open mind! I’m actually okay with aegyo if it’s played as a joke or not too much, but when it’s excessive, it just takes me out. No I understand how you feel - it does feel awkward - especially when you compare yourself or talk to your peers but I hope you don’t worry about it too much! I know it’s easier said than done, and it’s pretty easy to spiral too - I journal when I’m having issues but a friend of mine meditates and says it really helps. Have you thought about doing work at home? My friend works at a non profit after school tutoring program and her program has an online department with tutors, lesson planners, and other behind the scene stuff. It might be a stretch, but there might be something like that in your general area! I think it’s good to do what you can, and even if you don’t think it’s a lot - it’s always more than you think! And really, health is the most important thing, so focus on what you need! I’m sorry that you feel that way about yourself. You’re always your worst enemy and it sucks it has to be that way. I struggle with major depression so I get it and it took a lot of time and effort to get myself out of that, and I know it’s something I’m going to have to struggle with my whole life. I take medication, run, and spend time with friends to alleviate it, but I know that the self-healing process is a long one and it’s not linear. I hope that you can focus on your mental and physical health and that you do feel better! Just from our conversation, I know that you’re a very kind, lovely, and creative person! No you’re totally fine - I like connecting with people and part of that is listening and hearing their experiences. Everyone has different difficulties and to be honest, it’s always easier to be vulnerable with people online than people you just meet in person. Yeah, I’ve been thinking about watercoloring but I’m worried I might not like it after I spend the money to get the initial supplies haha. But a friend of mine and I are gonna try fishing out even though I don’t know if I’ll like it either lol. It’s good to try things out even if you don’t end up enjoying it so I just want to try a bunch of stuff - I think I’d really enjoy doing pottery but I’m waiting to graduate and have a steady income to try it. Have you tried the Color By numbers books? I enjoy those since I don’t have the greatest imagination haha. I think it’s cool that you can do poetry - not everyone can do it and it takes a lot of creativity! Have you thought about publishing? That would be a fun experience! No yeah my friend used to be a big NCT fan so I like some of their songs like life is still going on (as you can see i'm very into the bright songs lol), but don’t know enough about their discography in general sadly. I’ve heard of some of Stray Kids and ATEEZ’s songs, but to be honest, I’m not a fan of experimental music haha. I’m a normie in that way but I’m happy that they’re all doing well! If I do like an experimental song, it's mostly because of nostalgia like Shinee's Ring Ding Dong or Am I too Easy by Ukiss lmaoo. If you have some songs you’d like to recommend, I’ll be sure to listen to them while I’m driving! I do like the members of Stray Kids and Ateez though - they seem like pretty good people, but it’s kind of hard for me to get invested in idols just because there’s been so many cases of them not being the greatest, which sadly makes me hesitant. I do like some of the Boyz songs like Merry Bad Ending, but I don’t know too much about them as a group or their discography though I feel like everyone compares themselves at one point or another, it’s pretty rough in general with media and society’s expectations of beauty. I feel bad for the younger generation since they have more of it shoved into their faces, but no yeah it sucks that it does put this self imposed pressure on everyone and makes everyone think they have to look a certain way to be considered beautiful. It’s easy to criticize yourself since you can misjudge your own positive and negative qualities. But at least it’s a shared experience lol. And it's worse that certain “fans” or just people online are also very judgmental of idols or even celebrities in general, anything regarding their weight or looks or if they act a certain way - it makes it seem like everyone’s horrible but I feel like some people just behave as the worst versions of themselves online. I know people in real life aren’t horrible, but it sucks to see a lot of negative and rude discourse online and it can easily affect anyone who reads that stuff and sees it multiple times a day. Don’t feel like a fake, I promise that there’s no wrong or right way to be Korean and most people don’t care about that! But again, easier said than done Nah you’re totally good - I promise I’m a long writer too (as you can see lol)! Also I listened to Rio and Ripley and loved Rain&Apple, Shibuya, and Saturn from Rio and Promise, Like a Star Like the Moon by Ripley!

mina

ayy enjoy the journey, you're in for a ride🤭!!

mina

it's definitely after this dw

❣️ Vladlena ❣️

Can you stop writing these type of comments? I know, I also want to get next episode quicker, but is not really nice every time hurry up them. I mean it doesn't even help. Theey will upload the next reaction when they can. So what's the point of these begging?

❣️ Vladlena ❣️

Finally this day has come! Korean Ben Affleck killed me 😂😂😂😂 I never saw this, but this was ludicrous! 43:05 “I wish they recommended this” - you are a funny guy McKay! And I like how every reactor loooooves Suno and names him their goat!

❣️ Vladlena ❣️

“In the worst way this was satisfying” — say it LOUDER McKay!! It’s perfect comment to this

Betsy

Dang, I wasn't trying to beg or be rude. I was just expressing how much I loved their reaction and how excited I was. I didn't mean any offense by it at all. Sorry 😭

❣️ Vladlena ❣️

How I said I understand the urge. I also often check in to see if there are new updates of my favorite shows, but I try to control myself from comment like "where is the new episode etc." I think it's a sign of respect.

Mr. John Kagurabachi

Season 1 was amazing. I binged it. But IMO s2 fell into that edgy manhwa trap. Really hating s2 tbh. Feels a little corny and I’m not invested in any of the characters. This show is my game of thrones :( I’d rate s1: 9.5/10 and s2 5/10.

Betsy

Hey girl, sorry again, I haven't been feeling good the past few days just really depressed, tired, and kind of out of it. I don't always sleep much. All your encouraging kind words really warm my heart, though. I'm so glad I met you on here. You're a wonderful and sweet person. I can tell from talking with you, too. And yeah it feels surreal like my body and mind is rejecting me. I get so scared and am full of uncertainty a lot. However, I try to stay strong by keep holding on to hope. I realize people deal with far worse everyday. I try to remember that as well. But still, this feels like a nightmare I can't wake up from no matter how hard I try. Aww that's great you have a loving and caring family and that you can see your family and friends often. That's important. My friends are always busy so, I don't see them much which makes it harder because I miss them but I try to give them space and not be selfish. And it's cool we're both homebodies. I enjoy interacting and meeting new people. But with too much, I feel drained and have to recharge with how things are now. Sometimes people talk a bit loud and it gets to be a lot to take in. I try to balance it like you said but it's difficult. And yeah I compare myself to other girls way too much. Because, I don't love myself but I'm trying to learn to. Aww you're right the Idol life isn't all glitz and glamor. Nothing is black and white. They only show what they want you to see. You don't get to see what's beneath the surface. Everyone has scars. I forget that at times. And I agree, society puts so much pressure on us to look and act a certain way where eventually we all mold together. I always wish I looked better and was taller. I'm petite and only 5'1. But people say I look young for my age. Lol So, I guess that's a plus. Mhm, it is sad that some Kpop Idols aren't what you see and can harbor some dark secrets. I like to think most of them are good honest kind people but you never know. Since we don't actually know them on a personal level, that makes it impossible to know for sure. Still, I always try to see the good in others by giving them a benefit of the doubt. And this is dumb but also, I have a crush on Juyeon and Hyunjin. It's silly at my age, though Haha I feel like an old lady compared to them. They're so young and in their prime. I love Kpop but some of it is rather toxic with guys selling that "boyfriend image." as well as the girls selling the "girlfriend image" Some guys and girls take it literally at heart and it creates that parasocial relationship/dynamic. I also dislike how some fans are extremely controlling and don't let the artists have a life or any ounce of happiness. It makes me very sad. And yeah I probably will check out Pulp Fiction at some point because, I've heard so many good things about it and I like a lot of the actors in it and I love a nice comedy. It's okay I can be a broken record with things I feel strongly about, too. That's cool, I like more psychological anime too and action but slice of life is a warm comfort to decompress. Plot based stories are more interesting. My favorite anime is Mob Psycho 100. I can relate a lot to Mob and how he feels in a way. I fell in love the characters, story, visuals, humor, overall message, and the coming of age story in general. I found it endearing and it really made me ponder about life. As you can see, I'm a deep thinker. And those are all great Kdramas. I've been meaning to watch Reply 1988 because, I love the 80's decade and I'm a fan of quite a few of the actors in it. Yeah I'm on season 2 of Sweet Home but haven't finished it yet. I keep putting it off. I liked season 1 way more. It feels like an entirely different show. Overall, I liked the vibe more with season 1. Beyond Evil is a very popular drama I've heard. I like crime dramas but sometimes ut can be too heavy with all the violence, disturbing subject matter abd more emotional. But with Kdramas, it just hits differently. The acting is always top notch! Haha you know what's funny? I actually like those tropes but they overuse them a lot where it feels lazy. Yeah too much aegyo is offputting. Aww that's a smart idea to write in a journal. Yeah I'm too insecure around my relatives and am not as social as I am with you right now which I know is crazy. It's just easier and feels more natural. But yeah, I write poetry when my emotions feel too heavy and I need an outlet while listening to Korean OST'S on my phone or soft soothing jazz music. It really cleanses my soul. And I would love to work from home but being on the phone too long hurts and all the beeping, dialing, pressing, it all brings discomfort. I don't put my phone on speaker hardly ever. Aww glad your friend found a good job that fits her. A tutoring job sounds nice. Thank you. But really even that would be hard with all the environmental everyday sounds. Very true, you can be a different person online more confident and let you guard down more. And that makes sense with not being sure with all the work it takes with watercolors and supplies, it adds up. But that's a good mindset to try things out to see if you like it. I understand about the steady income part first. I've never tried Color By Numbers Books but have heard of it and that it's relaxing for a lot of people. I've thought about publishing but it scares me for the whole world to see my writing because it's like I'm baring my soul to them and I fear all the criticism and that my words wouldn't be enough to them and they wouldn't like it. Plus once I publish my work, it's no longer completely mind. You know? I wish there was a private message on here so I could show you. I don't have social media except this and I have YouTube. I wasn't mindful with the rest of it. Awww with NCT 127, I recommend: Magic Carpet Ride, Gold Dust, Rainy Night, Focus, White Night, and Cant Help Myself I love SHINee too and EXO. Because, As you know, love that R&B the most. Aww so glad you loved both albums. Rio and Ripley's voices are so soothing and lovely. I knew you would enjoy the albums. Gosh I told myself I wouldn't make this long. I wanted to do a short and sweet one down to the point post. Lol Yet again, I had a lot to say. Oh well :)

Betsy

Becca, by any chance do you have Instagram? Because if so, I was thinking I might just get it to exchange numbers with you. Then I would delete it right afterwards. That way, we can talk more but on a more personal level. Honestly, I feel bad with posting such long messages on the geks comment section. Even though, I enjoy talking with you on here, it makes me feel a little weird with it being where everyone can see all the messages Haha But I understand if you don't want to or if you don't have an Instagram account. It was just a thought, no pressure :)

Saphira

Btw the teacher was not there when they were getting the answers. Most probably it was the class prez. During stuff like these, teachers are never actually there, the job gets delegated to the class president(s).

Rebecca

Yes I have an insta if you wanna connect there! But I’m not 100% comfortable giving out my phone number but I agree about wishing we could DM on here I'm sorry that the past couple days have been rough, it's really not fun to deal with and I'm sorry that it's happening to you. It's good you try to stay positive, but it can be hard. It makes complete sense though, but I hope it only goes up from here. No yeah I don’t know - I hope that they’re all good people but I know that there are some really bad eggs in there, just like everywhere. I like to assume every celebrity is neutral/positive unless they prove me wrong but I’m not as invested in idols as I used to be, unfortunately. Also Juyeon and Hyunjin are very cute!! I can see why you like them haha. Yeah, it sucks with the parasocial relationship - I feel bad for both the fans and the idols. Like, the industry obviously encourages it since it makes them money but it’s a whole mess for everyone involved. I love Mob Pyscho!!! I just love Mob so much, he’s the dang cutest. I can see why it’s your favorite - I think it’s in my top 5. Aw that sucks about Sweet Home, hopefully I’ll enjoy the 2nd season but maybe I’ll see what you mean. LOL - I can see why you like those tropes, but I just can’t and it’s not just kdramas, I dislike them in most media but I just roll my eyes and continue haha. I wish I enjoyed them more, but I lowkey die a little when I see them coming LMAO. No I understand about publishing - it does seem scary and I can see it being hard because you work so hard on your art. If someone didn’t like anything that I put out, I’d be devastated too. It kind of reminds me of the scene in IASIP with Charlie and Dennis singing dayman and they boo him. Lol, I’d crash out

Betsy

Sorry that was probably a weird question. I just meant exchanging numbers in a direct message on intstagram. Then I would delete my account afterwards because, I don't really do Instagram, Facebook anymore, etc. I used to have both but it made me to addicted to always getting on and feeding into likes and and I would get depressed looking at everyone's fulfilling lives. It made me feel even more insecure, envious, and doubtful. But I understand since we don't know each other that well other than talking on here. Hope I didn't make you too uncomfortable by asking. And yeah Mob Psycho 100 is my comfort anime. He's so freaking precious and sweet and it's such a beautiful touching story. I love Mob and Regan's friendship as well as the other quirky characters. That's neat we both like it a lot. It has a wonderful message that really speaks to the heart. Aww hopefully, you will like Sweet Home more than me. I need to push on through and continue with the rest of the series since I love Song Kang's acting so much and the fantasy action horror genre in general. I'm just struggling with it keeping my interest. Yeah some tropes are fun while other times, it just gets old. And I agree, I hope most Idols are nice and good honest people. But I was sad finding out some that were not, unfortunately. I think most are though. Aww yeah Juyeon and Hyunjin are cute, handsome, kind charming, charismatic, funny, and seem to be warmhearted. Plus, I love watching them perform. They're a such all rounders. But for sure, the parasocial aspect of K-pop is crazy and sad. Also, I love Hyunjin's solo songs such as "Quill Pen" "Long For You" and "Contradicting." They're really good but "Quill Pen" is my favorite. It's such a deep moving song. I love the melody. And yeah my poetry is such a personal thing. It's hard for me to share it with the world, confidently. I'm hesistant and scared to. Truth is, I created a new poem on here to show you but then quickly deleted it because, I didn't like it all that much. Anyway, another one of my favorite movies is the Dead Poet's Society for obvious reasons lol I've never heard of that show, IASIP? Aww but that's cool. Oh wait, I have... Oops. Haha I had to look it up. I've seen parts of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia randomly a few times while casually browsing :)

Rebecca

No it’s not a weird question! And you’re totally good but yeah - I just don’t feel comfortable giving my phone number out in general because I’ve had an old coworker try to use it to do stuff but you didn’t make me uncomfortable - there’s no harm in asking! But I rlly do wish we had access to DM system on patreon. I understand the no social media - a friend of mine deleted her insta for the same reason and I haven’t posted on mine since covid, I just have it to keep up with friends and acquaintances but it does make a difference on mental health and it’s really easy to compare yourself so I get it. If patreon ever creates private messages, we should totally do that! I really like mob psycho, but it’s hard for me to rewatch things unless it’s with someone else since it feels like im experiencing my first watch again through them lol. I think the only comfort shows I can rewatch are like sitcoms and comedies like B99, the office, what we do in the shadows, Saiki K, etc. But I agree - I loved mob’s character growth and the ending was my favorite arc - he’s just so wholesome and I kept wanting the best for him. I think it’s okay if you never finish sweet home since there’s no point in spending time and energy on something unless you actually enjoy it I’ll be sure to listen to Hyunjin’s songs when I head to work and it’s great that you care so much about Juyeon and Hyunjin! I’m sure they’re lovely! I used to be a big stan of Key from SHINee and I remember having the biggest crush on L from Infinite when I was younger haha. But I just hope idols actually enjoy what they’re doing and that the pressure or the negatives of their jobs don’t outweigh the whole experience. I’m happy fans and idols can connect to each other, but I just wish there was more balance No yeah I totally understand - I think my email keeps the unedited version if you want me to read it! I usually just click to go straight to the source but if you’re not comfortable with that, I understand but I’m sure I’d love it! Yeah I really enjoyed the dead poet’s society too, man what a classic! I remember liking the coming of age aspect and robin williams really shined! I related to Neil a lot when I watched it so I remember feeling a lot of emotions with his character I don’t know if you’d like always sunny since the characters are rlly are bad people lol but they’re so funny to me because they’re horrible

Mari

Everyone, not just any reactors, can't help but love Ahn Su Ho and his pink pillow. I'm already dreading the finale.

Kite

quoting Hermann Hesse 🧐

~Mercedeez Lee~

I honestly thought it was gonna be the next Kdrama for sure after Squid Game season 2 wrapped up with it already being recommended a lot for a bit and even being on a poll but then AOUAD reactions started out of nowhere, now Weak Hero ? Kinda disappointed but hopefully it doesn’t get pushed back again

Betsy

Sorry, I've been going through some personal things. So, I'm bad at responding right away. Aww I wouldn't do that but I understand the concern. So sorry that happened to you. That's messed up. I'm sure you were really scared and shocked. I was just going to show you my poems and chat some more lol I wish we had DM on Patreon, too. Maybe one day there will be. Yeah I felt better after I deleted my account for good. It was a relief. My family still has it though. I'm trying not to compare but I do it way too much. It's my insecurity peaking out. Yeah I understanding not wanting to rewatch certain shows. I used to be that way but I've started to rewatch more when I really love a show and want a experience it for a second time. For real, Mob is such a precious little bean that has such a big heart and always sees the best in others. Him and Regan are my favorite anime characters of all time. I loved the ending too. It was my favorite arc as well. That makes sense about rewatching something if it's with someone else. I rewatch Seinfeld and Friends but they're more sitcoms like you said so, it's just for fun. Oh, true I still might finish Sweet Home sometime. And I think you'll like Hyunjin's songs. There's so much emotion and feeling with them. Aww I love Key but Minho is my bias :) I liked L in Angel's Last Mission. Robin Williams was one of favorite actors and I loved his role in it. He did it flawlessly. I haven't watched Dead Poet's Society in a long time. I might have to. There were so many memorable quotes and scenes in it. But yeah, I hope Idols enjoy what they're doing as well and it's worth it in the end for them. They sacrifice so much for their career. There needs to be more balance on both ends. And sure if you want to check out the poem but it's not that good really. Ahh right, I might not like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia then. I usually like shows with more kind hearted likable characters haha

Honestly, don't worry about it at all. I hope things are going better, and I dont enjoy how ppl can be pressured to respond so take ur time - no need to apologize - and nah, i was more weirded out by that person than anything else lmao. No yeah, I should watch Seinfeld bc so many people say it’s good or their favorite sitcom, but I just never pull the trigger. But usually the best shows are the ones I had to force myself to start lol. But no yeah, if you enjoy likable characters, you’d probably hate IASIP haha. You might like Derry girls, it’s a sitcom about high school girls in Ireland and has Nicola Coughlan (I still need to watch Bridgerton S3) and What we do in the shadows, S2 is actually so funny but if you’d like a weird show about vampires, it’s actually so fun I don’t know much about poetry, but I could see the imagery tell a story if that makes sense. I really like the line about the moon and the sky, it’s a pretty cool way of describing night fall and I could really imagine it in my head. It makes it seem scarier than a normal night and really expressive. I really liked reading it so no need to downplay your talents! Also, I totally forgot L acted haha, but Minho is great - I loved their dynamic when he got out of the military, but I think Taemin would be my favorite now!

2026-10-08 00:00 Thanks for the reaction. but Weak Hero and All of us are dead were not a big hit in Korea, actually. The Glory is much more structured drama with a great story written by a very famous writer. can't wait..🥲

Oh I see. Well, I'm still sorry that happened to you. It's hard to know who to trust these sometimes. Thank you. I am a little bit. It comes and goes. I'm trying to take it one day at a time. Yeah Seinfeld is an old time classic. I've watched it so many times. The characters aren't always likable but they're funny and I love the shenigans they got themselves into all the time. It never gets old rewatching all the episodes. Friends is good too but I personally prefer Seinfeld more. Agreed, the ones you don't think you'll like at all are usually the ones you enjoy the most lol Oh, I've heard of Derry Girls. It sounds interesting and I never really got into Bridgerton even though, it's super popular. I've never heard of What We Do in the Shadows. That sounds like another good one. Yeah I love creating lots of imagery, symbolism, and emotion in my writing. I want to make it feel like the reader is there and also I hope it resonates with them so they can feel less alone. Aww thank you, glad you enjoyed it. Yeah I like L's acting. I never listened to much of Infinity but I know they're an older group, second generation, right? And yeah Minho is handsome and has smooth vocals but Taemin's style and music is my favorite. He holds the card of being like a Korean Michael Jackson perfectly. I love his vocals and creative mindset. His solo stuff is so good. I love the whole group though. They're so funny, goofy, lovable, and beyond talented. Some of my favorite songs by them is one of the OST songs in Boys Over Flowers, Stand By Me, An Encore, Good Evening, Kind, Replay, Marry You, Married to the Music, etc. Their music and harmonious voices make me feel so many things :)

2026-10-08 00:00 actually weak hero was absolutely a hit in korea. it was nominated in some serious award shows, and the director and main actor park jihoon received awards for their performances! and the rest of the cast and stuff also received a lot of praise. i know you like the glory a lot and i agree, but let's not discredit

OMG YESSSSSSSS

EK

Then it would not be a "drama."

~Mercedeez Lee~

Honestly they ain’t wrong, The Glory is one of the rare non-romance Kdrama in the new era that has managed to win multiple awards on the same level as like Crash Landing On You, Queen of Tears, Lovely Runner etc. Kdrama’s like AOUAD and Weak Hero may have got some recognition and nominations in SK but that’s nothing compared to romance Kdrama’s that always steal the spotlight and bag awards every year. The Glory managed to get to that level of recognition because of its writing, story & characters

kumamon

Yessssssss

yeyy! you’re finally reacting to one of my favorite shows🤗

HUH??

y'all think this bullying is bad? Wait until The Glory...

21:53 Suho showing up at Sieun’s place while making deliveries feels like a classic Suho move—disguised concern. He isn’t the type to openly say “I’m checking on you,” especially so early in their dynamic, but his actions speak volumes. He's already clocked Sieun as someone different - quiet, closed-off, but intense. Seeing him take on bullies solo might have sparked a mix of admiration and concern. So yeah, while the show doesn’t spell it out, it’s very likely intentional. Suho was scoping out a potential ally, but more than that—this pink pillow charmer was already starting to care.
