Not moving forward with “Island”

Hi! Just a quick update.

I watched the first episode of Island (with Cha Eunwoo) and I didn’t really vibe with where it’s going. I know sometimes it takes a couple episodes or so for a drama to pick up but that’s just not something that works with reaction videos. I was already skeptical about the premise since this is not usually the type of show/genre I like but I really wanted to give it a go since it’s Cha Eunwoo (he looks INCREDIBLE in it) but yea, I still have my reservations.

So that leaves me to my other 3 options (The Fabulous, Reborn Rich and Weak Hero Class 1). The first two, I love the premise but we’ll see about the execution. Weak Hero is very intriguing since a lot of people are raving about it - I’m a little cautious about how triggering it can be but I’m willing to give it a chance!

We’ll keep you guys posted! ☺️

You Should watch the glory, it’s also about bullying but revenge it’s really good but a little sad but you should give it a try 🤗

I hope you end up watching the rest of island on your own, bc it's fantastic! Has some good humor mixed in with the rest of the storyline. 🙂

Kathy N

I agree! this one's good too!

Tabinda Shamaoon

lily

Jeff I recommend alchemy of souls. I truly believe you will love it

valeria castillo

Reacting to DO’s Bad Prosecutor would be a great way to Celebrate EXO’s First OT8 comeback in abt 5 years since Tempo (4 yrs since Obession)

Christine Nguyen

I highly highly recommend Weak Hero Class 1, it’s so good and Park Jihoon’s acting was phenomenal. I also recommend Under the Queen’s Umbrella, it’s a really good show as well.

Blue Bleu

please weak hero is a must the amount of the talent of actors there is incredible

jinkichimchim

bad prosecutor is hilarious and the writing is great. obviously kyung so is amazing in it. i recommend you watch!!!

apple crumble

idk why but the fabulous did nothing for me. i though i’d enjoy it more

apple crumble

i didn’t like the fabulous. the writing was meh and the story wasn’t that interesting to me. i really liked reborn rich!

apple crumble

i would like to recommend the drama alchemy of soul hehe i find it quite interesting!!!

heh

I think you will really like fabulous. Its one of my fav kdramas. The best way to describe this drama is Minhos abs that's all I'm gonna say lol.

Astroid

Weak hero class one definitely can be triggering because of the amount of violence in it but it was probably one of the best kdramas I've seen.

Victoria

reborn rich was a pretty good show!

Soff

Reborn Rich is so good! I highly recommend!

hc0311

oh and wjsn’s bona, and the guy from new jeans ditto mv both lead in it! (twenty five twenty one)

madi

ok i say either 2521, ik it’s not an option but it’s such an amazing show, and i feel like with the way you analyze shows it’s the PERFECT one for you, or weak hero class 1, also amazing, it does have a lot of violence, but it’s still so so good, and the acting is incredible in both

madi

Honestly all the options are so good so I’m fine with any of them. Also, I’m not gonna stop recommending 2521 I think you’re really gonna like it🫶🏻

gigi

i really liked both reborn rich and the fabulous! i would also recommend twenty five twenty one in case you haven't seen that one yet. based on the dramas you've reacted to before i feel like you'd really like that one!

scarlett

I definitely recommend reborn rich!

Brianna

I would like to also highly recommend Under the Queen's Umbrella on Netflix. It stars SF9s Chani and PDS2's Yoo Seon-ho

dylightfullygeeky

I totally recommend reborn rich

vega

Just watched the fabulous and it was very mediocre for me. The romance was pretty dull and the plot got boring after the first couple of episodes. Don’t think I would have finished it had it been a full 16 ep drama honestly.

Malin Stalheim

Happy new year Jeff🎉 I like all the content here, and I'm ready for a new year with your reactions! Let's spend a great year together with fun and joy! Island and Weak Hero Class 1 are more my genre of kdrama so I will be happy to watch your reactions!

Kelly B B D

This one is super good too. If intense physical bullying isn't triggering to him , he should definitely give it a shot 👌🏻

Sara

How many dramas have you watched in three days? 😭

Galice

I really liked the webtoon of weak hero so I think it would be a good series. And my 4th option, there is a recently released drama on Netflix called "The Glory" and it's REALLY good

Virtual TimeLine

Weak hero is the best drama I’ve watched this year

Gigi

There is a channel called Core4VT reacts, their reactions are so fun to watch, i recommend 👌🏻

Sara

Honestly had the same thoughts about Island as soon as I commented on your other post and watched the pilot 😂 as much as I love seeing Eunwoo’s face I just wasn’t able to get into it as well lol Reborn Rich was really good too although it’s double the episode count compared to the other two — you can’t go wrong with any of the 3 imo!

mac

I agree with The Fabulous 👍🏻❤

eve_ss

There's a new series right now in Netflix called "The Glory". They already released all 8 episodes for their Season 1. Season 2 will only be available on March 2023 tho. I hope you could try this one too in the future! It's a melodrama and might be triggering (since this about bullying and revenge) but this is a good one! and all actors are top-notch! Almost everyone on my tl been saying that they binged watch this series in one sitting. I did the same! So good 👍🏻

eve_ss

Just a suggestion but if you want a good laugh definitely give one dollar lawyer a go. The storyline and acting are all great with amazing cast 🔥

salegacyjr

That’s alright. I watched the fabulous and I’m not sure if it really reaction worthy but if you like to watch it with us I would love it either way. I have heard so many good things about reborn rich but I haven’t started it yet. However, you NEED to watch weak class hero 1, it’s sooooo interesting. It’s not the happiest show out there and could be very triggering to some but it is totally worth the watch. I saw so many reaction channels watch it and love it so much. I’m sure you will like it too.

Sara

That’s exactly what happened to me since I’m more of a romance k drama viewer I just didn’t vibe with it but weak hero class 1 although it wasn’t the type of drama I usually watch I decided to give it a try since park jihoon is in it but ended up actually really enjoyed it!

Anna

Bad prosecutor please 😭

Marksubak

Yeah had a feeling you wouldn’t really vibe with Island, I tried as well but for some reason couldn’t really get into it. The Fabulous tho, I think you’d really like for sure…..you mentioned Bad Prosecutor before, is that one not up for consideration anymore?
