Fabulos (2022)

It's worth the 8 episodes and worth ur time trust me ?

For those people who know how to appreciate every kdrama no matter the plot and the fact that ur favourite actress and actor are in it this kdrama it's worth someones time it teaches about the fashion industry how u should strive n work towards ur dreams no matter the hardships it comes with it ..it also shows that u should surround urself with people who ur gonna support each other throughout every step the plot was also beautiful teaches a lot n the friendship they had it made me wish to have close friends who we lift each other up rather than hangout in groups n all we do is party but when it comes to our dreams nobody is genuinely there for u it's such an amazing kdrama teaches a lot I really learnt a lot from my perspective trust me it's worth ur time if ur a person who appreciates the plot twist of every kdrama no matter the genre of course we smiled with them n also cried with them but throughout it...its worth watching but of course everyone has there own opinion I wrote my review based on what I liked about the kdrama why don't u watch n see if it's really worth ur time 😉 I mean if u liked Now We Are Breaking Up why wouldn't u like this one although the plot twist is almost.... almost similar but each kdrama always has it own story to tell

It was tough to get through this drama

I watch and finish this drama for Minho. I'm a shawol and to support SHINee members work I gave it a try.
At first I didn't really expect anything about this drama. But after all the delay of the release date I became very excited to be able to watch the drama for Minho and my expectation rises because of all the waiting. They promote this drama as young people trying to succeed in the fashion industry and all. So me thinking maybe I can learn something about fashion, even though I'm not into fashion myself. I also thought to be able to see some character development or growth of these professionals in their workfield. No......... It was just disappointing. You will see tons of brand names passing by for the scenes and some basic or you couldn't even call it basic marketing/PR things.
Then I switch my focus, to see this more as a romance rom-com. Can I see it like that??
I don't know . Personally for me a rom-com has to be sweet, beautiful or have a meaningful love-relationship, but the couple in this drama doesn't has that. It involves cheating, with no regrets. Being a best-friend with your still in love ex-boyfriend. I have know problem for people being friends with their exes, but if you still have feelings for each other don't date other people and stay in contact with this so called "ex" (boy)friend.
Story: If you ask me what the story is.... I will say there is NO Story or a thing call plot. A lot of people say it's a drama with good friendship relationships. I agree but this should not be the main point of the drama, if this is not your selling and promotion point from the start.

The producers and writers could make this whole story less boring by adding more dept to the background of each of these main characters and maybe add more families to turn it into a Sitcom kinda drama. The FL and ML lead relationship could have been a second couple in another drama.

Acting: the story of this drama is so lost, that I could not even care who the casts are. As I said before I watch this drama for Minho. Even though I'm a Shawol I still want to be rational about the acting skills of these actors. Nobody has leave a big impact for me. The FL just acted like any other actresses that act a bubbly, hardworking girl. Minho should polish his acting skills. Even though his character is someone that doesn't show his feeling to others, it still lacks a lot of expressions compare to a normal shy- introverted guy. He basically acted himself with a lot less passion.

Music: Did they have an ost or any music?? I didn't catch any.

Rewatch Value: I will rewatch it as a drama playing in the background for some sound, but will not actively watch it for the story or acting.

A cute romantic comedy about passionate people

I’m binged watched the drama because I really loved it. The drama shows the hardship of people working in fashion industry and beautiful friendship among the main characters. I feel the drama did great justice to all the characters not just the 4 main characters.

I am a shawol but regardless of that I feel like Minho portrayed Ji Woomin perfectly as a person who has hard time expressing his feelings but his character develops to overcome that! I really loved his chemistry with Soobin too. Sangwoon and Heejung did a great job too!

A fun, cute drama showing everyone’s passion and hardwork. Specially healing to watch this holiday season!

Definitely the fabulous

It is the best. I love it. Our Choi Minho and Chae Soobin is really good. Not only the main leads but also the whole cast is really good. Perfect , Gorgeous ,Elegant, Brilliant. You can feel the chemistry of the characters just by one look. They teach you how to get close with your ex if you want. I love this and the scenes are really bright. It really shows how the fashion industry is.
The facial imotions are good. The cast have worked hard. The story of this drama is clearly flooding away without any hesitation. It has good beginning well prepared middle and turning points and happy ending.
The OST's are also really good. They 're really matching with the drama well and they have chosen the right singers and bands for OST s. The couple is super cute and pretty together.

Friendship, Love and Career!

Watched the series in one go! With the fam.. parents and all.. My mother seemed like a mom watching his son (m talking sbout you Choi Minho).. 😅
The drama length was enough to convey the story, no unnecessary scenes/fillers just to have that 16 ep length. Love that there'so no ultra over the top evil witch/villain.. just enough tension to spice it all up.
The fashion show events were so entertaining to watch!
Also love how it showed the story of each of the 4 friends, and how they interact together, as friends talking about life and work. It's relatable.

Your slice of life drama with a strong acting cast!

The drama has been marketed as a HYPER REALISTIC romance genre focusing on the struggles of youths in the fashion industry and the strong friendship between the 4 main cast. So, I expect realistic potrayals of the cast with character developments that are more authentic to real life. Also, the pacing and development of the story to be closer to reality.

After binge watching the series, I truly enjoyed the drama and it was well executed. Firstly, I appreciate that they did not drag out the stories and it flowed smoothly. You can sympathise and feel the togetherness and companionability of the 4 four friends. They never fail to turn up for each others despite their bad days. The stories for each character were well developed and i love that they let each and every character shine on their own right. No actors were left behind, even the supporting cast were very well portrayed. I must say, the cast is one of the drama's strength. All of them held their own. Their acting were on point. Also, I love that each of the 4 main characters were distinctly different yet they mesh together well. There were notoverlaps in the writing so you are kept engaged. The writing was solid and it had enough depth to the stories as well as humor and quirky moments!

Out of all the cast members, I am the most familiar with minho and soobin. I personally love their chemistry onscreen and offscreen. You can tell that they mesh well so I am invested in the pairing. Their flashback scenes are one of my favourites since I love romanticism. I do hope they have more opportunities to work together again in the future.

Overall a great watch and definitely recommended! As per their tagline, let the fabulous be your ride or die!

A really nice drama to end the year with

This show was really nice to watch! Original, with endearing characters, a realistic plotline... I learned new things about the fashion industry, which I didn't know at all.

The drama is about the characters' struggles with their works within a demanding industry. I loved the fact that it was not entirely focused on the romance. It is what makes the plot realistic: seeing the friendship between the different characters and their relationships, I could somehow relate to them. While facing hardships, having friends to hang out with is a must!

It was nice to witness the characters' development, both emotionally and professionally! Ji Woo-Min's development was the most impressive of course - Choi Minho did well with this character!

The four main actors and actresses did really well! It's a good team: two actors, one actor and idol and a model! What a multi-talented team!

The Fabulous

I personally loved it, the story is fun, the love conflict is well posed, the story begins with great impact and takes us into a critical point in history, where it begins to break. Pyo Ji-eun and Ji Woo-min are the leading couple, the entanglements, back and forth, even the romantic scenes look very natural and real, sometimes the kdrama sins of being too rescued and having kiss scenes washed out but in The Fabulous that does not happen. The couple of friends of Esther and Joseph is super fun and lightens the series a lot but the best character is without a doubt Ye Seon Ho, a strong woman, with character and super endearing, in short I loved the series

The fabulous is a positive and sweet drama, such an endearing story! Gonna watch again and again, it got me smiling like an idiot so many times! The cast is really bright, I loved the natural acting. Also the story is very interesting and even if I don't generally like romantic dramas, this one was really cute. Also the outfits and style of all the actors is very remarkable! Also kissing scenes are so sweet! I loved it overall it made me happy~ can't wait to see more shinee minho acting in the future but also I loved Soobin character, the four protagonists are lovely.

Fabulous is so fab!

The show is so good! Choi Minho, Chae Soo Bin and all casts nailed it. I wish it's more than 8 episodes though. But overall, I was really impressed with the plot, characters, ootds and ost. The drama hits the modern struggle of young professionals which every working class can relate on top of the modern situationship that the young adults experience being with a complicate label. Minho flexed his actor side which is as good as he is being a tenured idol, I'm so glad and proud of him as a Shawol seeing him displayed his acting . You really did well Choi Minho!
