10 years difference

Bom Thanawat Uthaikitwanit is 27 and gonna play the one who is bullied, and Tar Atiwat Saengtien is 17 and gonna play the bully???
Bom must look very young as it's his first time.
I can't wait to see how the show is going to be. Hopefully it will be a mix a fun, love and of course, some drama.
1 week to go...
love y'all

"Hierarchy" started with immense potential, boasting a gripping premise centered on power dynamics, hidden secrets, and the promise of revenge. The elite students, each with their distinct backgrounds and intertwined destinies, set the stage for a drama ripe with intrigue and conflict.

Strengths:

Strong Beginning: The initial episodes of "Hierarchy" were captivating, introducing viewers to a world of privilege, power struggles, and the tantalizing secret of Kang Ha. The buildup was intense, creating high expectations for the unfolding drama.
Character Depth: The characters were well-crafted, each bringing their own complexities and backstories. The contrast between the elite students and the enigmatic Kang Ha added layers to the narrative.

Weaknesses:

Disappointing Ending: The conclusion of "Hierarchy" was its most significant letdown. Despite setting up a revenge arc, the storyline abruptly shifted to a happy resolution, negating the build-up of tension and conflict. This sudden change felt forced and unsatisfactory.
Lack of Consequences: The drama's resolution saw all characters turning out to be good, with no repercussions for the antagonists. This undermined the entire revenge theme and left viewers feeling that the narrative had lost its direction.
Unrealistic Turn of Events: The transition from a potential revenge drama to an overly optimistic ending lacked coherence. The characters' transformations and the lack of retribution for the wrongdoings felt unrealistic and disconnected from the story's initial premise.
Conclusion:
"Hierarchy" had all the ingredients for a compelling drama but faltered in its execution towards the end. The strong start and well-developed characters were overshadowed by an unsatisfying conclusion that failed to deliver on the initial promise of revenge and intrigue. The shift to an inexplicably happy ending without addressing the conflicts and wrongdoings left many viewers disappointed.

In summary, while "Hierarchy" began with the potential to be a standout drama, its ultimate failure to fulfill its revenge theme and provide a meaningful resolution makes it a frustrating watch for those who invested in its early episodes.

After first two episodes, DRAMA went on Slow mo....

It most amazing show which is taking 9/10 from me
now leads have become sort of villains, in current timeline both of ji won and her boyfriend are cheating ,,EP10

cheater husband isn't good at acting he look more of cartoon then a cruel man as shown in webtoon
wrong casting this man look like a poor cartoon character against ML

MLs sister isn't casted right, her acting isn't that great i hope she improve in upcoming episodes

Park Min Young is amazing as always,
her dedication and skills are way above all her cast members including ML
Until now this is one woman show carried by amazing performance of PMY

i am investment banker so this stock market touch is great about time travel, but they miss the thing about Her being 10 year from future she should at least know what are current stock price of major business like she can invest in
kakoo and Samsung stocks or her own company she is working,

Ep3
Starting why she is that shocked to see her husband naked when she has been watching him for last 10 years
I get it if she don't want to do it with him anymore but why she is acting like its her FIRST time... ?
(And Random chicken delivery guy come to protect her) our creepy ML was behind it, he knows she don't want his penis
he just knows ...
ML Goes and ask for a love rivel himself because her bf wasn't enough.

It become so slow in ep 3 they wasted whole time for that reunion where ML(CREEPY) Invited a guy to fight him for FL...
I don't like that weird accent that sound like north korean.


I get it he did everything to help PMY
BUT he stalk her, he invaded her privacy
He investigate her background. (I get his reason after ep5)

This first love dude just said he has a Girlfriend ( wearing ring means serious) but want to play with PMY ,👍
i am still on ML side because even if all that is still best between her worst suitors
After watching till ep 4 and preview of Ep5, i get it ML isn't Creepy because he is also from past and is a gift object given to FL from her father
whatever he is doing is to protect her because he know she was killed by her husband and bestie

AFTER watching Ep 6 this look like Our FL is main villian of story
Because she is cheating on her boyfriend with two man, while trying to push him and best friend together
They haven't done anything wrong in this timeline so her getting revenge is only justified in her own mind not to others
I am sure sister in middle of couple is Fls half sister and MLs half sister

Tolerable - one time watch

I am watching this just for the ML - Xing Zhao Lin , big fan of him ,he is good but not sure why is selecting such stories , he can do better .Have watched him in "Eternal Love" he can do better, please next time pick a better storyline.
The story is okayish and I have no idea how can someone allow an Ex-Girlfriend just take her Man away, this is just too much, watching I still feel we are in the ancient China where women were despised and thought as lowly people.
The Female Lead has beautiful eyes.Overall just a one time watch, neither found any songs catchy, at least in "you are my destiny" there was one song which I really loved was by Della "Dont fall in love yet" not sure the Title of it.

Great action

This is a great series so far as it starts off with a bang and keeps going with lots of action. It's a good storyline. I've enjoyed it's fast pace. I m not crazy about the FL as she s a bit of a nut and is a bit trying but there are so many other great characters I manage to keep interest. I think she s a good actor but not crazy about her role. Otherwise it's all very good and well done. I like that it doesn't get too heavy on any one character or direction. It keeps me wanting to get to the next episode. The love interests get a bit of too much bickering which isn't cool or sophisticated but it's not a lot. I look forward to seeing more and how it will end. The filming is good, locations, etc.

Not what I was expecting

Good to see parts of stories continued but confusing because the original story from season 1 was changed here in season 2. The original story could've remained unchanged, even though they lost Saint as Pete. The changes are annoying but I'm ignoring them to watch how things turn out for Can & Tin. By episode 3, I'll know if I'm sticking around
Likelihood of rewatching this is already low for me despite the cuteness of Can & handsomeness of Tin. Too many changes *sigh* left me feeling disappointed

First impression(watched the first episode)

Pooh has done a really good job even though its his first series. I felt Pavel and Nut's acting has also improved since 2moon2 and Oxygen respectively. It took me some time to realize it was Pavel. What a transformation of his looks. I just loved it. Talking about the series, there were too many characters so it might take me some time to understand whats going on. But, for sure ill continue watching it since my first impression was pretty good. I'll come back to this review to add in any details that i notice. Else I'll come back at the end to share my overall review and opinion on the series.

Note: this is just my impression of the series and characters. Doesn't impose anything on anyone. What I like, you might not like and viceversa

really annoying (sorry vengo)

edit: i made it 14 episodes in and i can’t do it anymore lol, i sensed myself starting to hate watch the show because i was seething with frustration at the mc. how can an mc be twenty nine whole years old and make such stupid, selfish decisions? i hear that rulu is a good actress so i’m gonna blame the direction for this. i found rulu’s portrayal of xiong dun utterly ingratiating. most of all it was her lying lmao. i know it was supposed to make her seem sympathetic but i felt no sympathy for seeing her actually hurt and endanger people around her. her voice was hard on the ears too?? i know she was supposed to sound cute and outgoing but she sounded like a woman in her mid thirties oncoming forties trying to sound like a baby. idk. gao weiguang i love the man but phew his presence wasn’t enough to save this shit. i really hope i can enjoy rulu jiang in another drama some day because this was really disappointing. not to mention her and viola mi’s styling was really unflattering here. i have no clue what these directors were thinking lmao. maybe i’ll return to finish watching for vengo but he’s the kind of actor that doesn’t carry a show as much as he depends on his costars and seeing as i hate everyone in the main cast that isn’t amy or xiong dun’s parents it’s not happening lol. the supporting stories, subplots, and cast are great though. it makes up for how unwatchable everything else is.

original review:

i think i’m not a big fan of viola mi or rulu jiang… the way they were styled in this drama was unflattering to say the least, and while i liked the character concept of xiong dun, i don’t really like her character? i always find myself more drawn to the characters around her—dr lin, aimi, her parents, the patients she befriends, etc. many ppl have commended rulu’s acting here, so maybe you’ll enjoy it. i personally didn’t, and the way they’ve styled her makes her already hard to watch. viola’s character xia meng has been a lot of shades of dislikable so far too, though i guess that’s on purpose.

gao weiguang is nice as usual. his short hair here makes him seem a little strange?? but you know, he has a nice face. those turtlenecks make him look a lot older and also cozy lol. and i love aimi’s actress and character so much i almost wish she was the main character. aimi and xiong dun are so close they’ve even made jokes about how they would marry each other if one of them were a man. to which i have to say, well why don’t you guys just get together regardless lol, it’s more realistic than being terminally ill and getting with your doctor. that’s another thing. i’m not sure how much of this is completely true seeing as it was based on xiong dun’s real life but it seems fairly disrespectful to sneak in such a weirdly unbalanced romantic plotline. what would the real xiong dun herself think?? it’s so weird!

there are a lot of other things in the show that i enjoy though. sub plots about sketchy doctors, about choosing love over all else including the pressures of work, the selfishness of children who don’t want to care for their parents but also the selflessness that many people are also capable of when seeing their loved ones are sick. it’s very much a touching show when it elaborates on these points. i’m looking forward to more of these side stories as i watch.

Personal opnion on generally the cast and acting:

I dont know how to feel about the new cast or the repeating story line, I honestly thought this was going to be a "season" 2 and not a "version" 2, something like, the extended side story of Knock and Korn from "Together with me" & "together with me chapter 2", though the actors are cute, they aren't as appealing as the original cast but, as I keep watching they do get more attractive.

The acting skills aren't up to par with the original cast, and need alot of brushing up on, there are also alot and I mean ALOT, of unnecessary pauses inbetween dialogues and the "awkward" pauses too are abit dragged out and it seriously gives me second hand awkwardness, and the characters do give off a more "hey this is the first time im acting/ met you" vibe on screen, as if they never ACTUALLY met before they filmed on set, so be aware if little things like this put you off, but all in all,

Actors 8/10

Acting skills 5/10
*mediocre, but I've only seen the first episode, I'll keep hope that they'll get better

Story line 4/10
*because its a repeat/ remake

I will keep watching even if some things dont progress since i really do love "2moons the series", so ill give this a try
Side note* fourth still hot and Kit still cute
