Cheongdam International High School (2023)

Point of the point is...

...that there is no point.
Food analogy: Underbaked lasagna
It literally had everything at it's disposable to make it a very gripping story and a great cast. What it lacked was execution. Shifting attention from one point to another without any real reason making the script feel loose.

I love stories that explore human beings as grey because, no one makes right decisions all the time, but still the bonds were poorly developed. It felt like they were keeping materials to themselves, so that they can make a second season purposefully.
Now, there really is genuine need of a second season because trust me when i say, none, not a single thread has been tied. It's a inconclusive loose end pro max ultra.

But nevertheless, the series is really short, watch if you have nothing else to do and want to tickle your mind slightly.

I don't know why many people don't like this drama?

After watching 9th and 10th ep i feel the writer is not that bad. Everyone know, Woo jin's GF is the real culprit .
Park woo jins Girlfriend is the one who try to kill Hye in because her boyfriend cheated on her and slept with Hye in ?, even Hye in is not innocent she is blackmailing Woo jin and Ji Naa because she wanted to become rich ?
So easy to understand ✌️

The best things i like about this drama is the bond between Ji Na and Hye in ❤... they just played their character very well . I love that scene in which Hye in crying on road and Ji na stop her car . The conversations between them are like best friends who support and try to help each other?.

I only have sympathy with Do Eon because He is the one who think his Girlfriend Hye in is victim and innocent one but She Is NOT ? ..Poor Do Eon ?

The storyline, filled with thriller, mystery, youth, and drama elements, had me hooked from the first episode. The plot was intriguing, keeping me on the edge of my seat as I tried to unravel the mysteries surrounding the characters.

The drama's fast-paced nature and unpredictable twists made it an enjoyable and engaging watch. I particularly appreciated the way it delved into the lives of the young protagonists, showcasing their struggles and growth throughout the series. The main cast did a commendable job in portraying their characters, making them relatable and genuine.

However, I must admit that I felt slightly let down by the last episode. It seemed to lack the same intensity and satisfaction as the rest of the drama. The conclusion felt rushed and left some loose ends untied, leaving me with unanswered questions. I wished for a more satisfying resolution to the captivating storyline that had been built up so well throughout the series.

Despite the somewhat disappointing ending, "Bitch X Rich" is still a worthwhile watch. The earlier episodes are packed with excitement and suspense, easily overshadowing the slight shortcomings of the final episode. If you're a fan of thrilling and mysterious dramas with a touch of youth and drama, this series might just be the perfect fit for you.

A show about a teen girl who constantly makes bad decisions against her own judgement

It was interesting in the beginning, but it took a downward turn for the worst and the story was being rushed. There were plot twists, but not real character development or lessons to be learned.

They could've made a great ending, but they left it open for possibly another season. I believe the writers got lazy when it came to arguments and bringing the story to a close. No hate towards the cast, they seem like they could've played out a better written plot and script.

The music was weird, like some songs seemed random for the outro or off theme for the show. I was honestly trying to get to the next episode to finish off this Kdrama.

If you watch this, think of it as something to watch while you wait for other anticipated Dramas.

Bitch x Rich (2023) – this drama is pointless, at first I can see a lot of clips on my tiktok and got curious because most of the viewers are rooting for the villain, more likely the so called villain in the series. The actors playing the characters are also not that strong in terms of acting skills, maybe because they are new faces in drama world. The series that ends with a cliffhanger didn’t really justify the whole process of what happened throughout the entire drama. This drama is not my type but I finished it since its short. I don’t know if I should watch the next season but I don’t have the drive to go through the next season if ever there is any.

Not Good Enough

Korean Drama " Bitch X Rich " is a school melodrama with an edgy plot. However, it gets more makjang than a mystery solving series.

The drama has a relaxing pace, which was okay at first, but didn't serve it well in the end. When things were starting to wrap up, the drama rushed things and gave the story a questionably open ending.

Also, the drama was too melodramatic at times. The twists were predictable as well and most of the characters were annoying, even the main one, though one should appreciate her brutal honesty when it came to her situation and her fighting spirit. But you could see that her choices turned into unavoidable disasters one by one.

Finally, the performances were enjoyable enough.

So, overall, three out of ten.

Main character have 2 braincells sometimes more

The main character just frustrates me so much and the rich kids even more. Do people act like this in real life?
The main character does the dumbest things imaginable and then acts like it is because she is poor and not because she literally doesn't think before acting. The best example of this is when she attacks the main antagonist rich girl. The main character left expensive shoes in a public bathroom and then is surprised that somebody stole them. Instead of going to the shopping center security she just attacks Jena because sure the thief would just stay around and wait for someone to find them (sarcasm).
AlsoThere are so many plot holes that don't make any sense. For example, in the last episode (10) girls are fighting on the rooftop and the main character doesn't hear a thing. Excuse me but is she deaf or something? The building is like 10 stories high so she would have definitely heard the girls screaming in the dead of the night at about 2-3 A.M. Also how are students allowed to stay in school during the night?
Long story short don't waste your time except if you like to cringe and feel like your brain cells are dying.
P.S. I finished it because I always finish the show no matter how bad it is ;|

Nothing special

It was mediocre. Nothing really creative; it's just a copy of other series out there. The acting was also not the best. Although I did love Lee Eun Saem's acting in All Of Us Are Dead, her acting here as the main character was less than average, or maybe it's just Hye In's unbearable personality that made the acting seem a little off. I didn't find myself rooting for any of the characters; they're all insufferable, especially Hye In. Seriously though, how stupid can you be? Leaving the expensive shoes she got in the bathroom, starting a fight with everyone around her, trying other people's clothes and playing with their stuff without their permission, thinking that everyone owes her something just because she's poor, and the list goes on. There must be some kind of limit to this stupidity. The drama overall is not that bad though, it's watchable if you have nothing else to do, and it's also short so you won't regret wasting too much time on it if you end up not liking it.

Entertaining start but went downhill quick

Came for Yeri and stayed cause this seemed like an ok watch. First few episodes were entertaining but went downhill pretty quickly. I should've known they wouldn't be able to create a satisfactory finale within 10 eps. I think this drama's theme shoulda purely focused on class and got rid of all the half baked mystery stuff.

Also why were the writers tryna make Baek Jena likeable when she's been so nasty from the beginning?I didn't find the FL annoying but I did grow tired of her antics as well as the rest of Jena's clique. Do Eon had potential but he just wasn't giving what he needed to give.

Class of lies is a murder mystery school drama with way better writing and more intrigue. Watch that instead.
