The Fabulous

Could be the name of this lil' K-Drama 8 episode series. It's very similar to, "Emily in Paris", with Chae Soo-bin playing the lead character. It's the reason we watched this series after seeing her in, "Where Stars Land", a highly recommended series and plays a similar character. Surprised it was only 8 episodes, thought it could have gone on for the usual 16 episodes, especially with 4 main characters, it could have explored their backgrounds in much more detail, but it revolved mainly around Chae Soon-bin character, who has the customary more than one suitor, trying to juggle her work life with her love lives and they intertwined on a regular basis.

This show has lots of potential. The casting and acting are both great. I also really liked the pacing, it wasn't too slow. The concept of this series is also something really interesting. Watching this show was quite relaxing, it was nice seeing something new and fresh for the first time in a while. I did also like the chemistry and the friendship between the characters.

Even though the concept itself is interesting, the plot is weak in my opinion. I was relaxed while watching this, but I was left wanting more excitement. Something that would have really pulled me in. For me, that spark was just missing.

Its really a fun drama to binge. Something light hearted, great to relax while watching after work. It focuses on four individual young professionals facing problems in their personal and professional life. It is extremely relatable with all the curve balls life throw at them unexpectedly.

The romantic sub plots were also very sweet and heart warming but more realistic than regular kdramas. I also like that one of the main characters is LQBTQ+.

The only thing I wish they had improved on was reducing the number of side characters. Main characters were great and I wish they were the only focus of the show.

I loved watching this drama. Acting is good from almost everyone. It has elements of great friendship, love, fashion and slice of life. No unnecessary filler episode to disappoint me . You can easily binge-watch. Personally I would love to see more. Both Woo-min and Seonho are really beautiful characters. And, both the artist did an amazing job portraying those characters. I also loved the chemistry of leads. I would definitely watch this drama again and recommend it to others. This drama is perfect for holiday season though it hasn't any holiday elements in it. Happy watching The Fabulous people.

I loved this show for the same reason that I loved Hospital Playlist. It's so real without it being over dramatic with villains and bunch of unnecessary obstacles for the hero and heroine. It does justice for showing the unseen hard work behind the fashion industry not just the model or the fashion designer. The duration of 8 episodes are perfect for the plot and the characteristics being shown. It's a relaxing show, where you can just enjoy the characters, acting and the vibe of the plot. No intense emotions or criticality. The good thing is every character was given their own important screen time without being overshadowed by a particular "hero" or "heroine". It was just like what happens in real life. Happy ending for some, not so happy ending for some, beginning of new journey for some and uncertainties in life for some.
