When the Stars Gossip

I gather from the news accounts on line that GOSSIP is losing audience week by week. And I grant that, so far, at least, it does not compete with the highly popular romantic rollercoasters, such as LOVE NEXT DOOR and QUEEN OF TEARS. Also, the most engaging romantic entanglement thus far dramatized is between two supporting characters on the ground: Lee El and Kim Joo-hun. But cliffhangers there are: plot contrivances to be resolved, love stories that will develop, and a wicked, overbearing patriarch overdue for comeuppance. This series is reported to have been extremely costly to produce, even if, or because, so much of it takes place within the zero-gravity confines of a space station. Even though the orbit of the ratings is degrading and the suits who fronted the $30 million may be weeping bitter tears, I am invested enough in what might attract Lee Min-ho and Kong Hyo-jin to each other, and what might keep them apart, that I plan to hang in there.

I absolutely love it! I'm fully committed to keeping up with the series until the very last episode.

Initially, I had some doubts about the concept, thinking it seemed repetitive based on what was suggested in the trailer. However, as I delved further into the episodes, I discovered that the drama is remarkably unique and it unfolds a compelling narrative that keeps me engaged. The performances by the cast are nothing short of outstanding-each actor truly brings their character to life, incorporating depth and emotion that makes every scene impactful. Additionally, hats off to the film production team; they've done a stellar job with the editing, which enhances the overall viewing experience.

I genuinely believe you'll find immense enjoyment in it once you start watching.

What sets this K-drama apart from many others is the absence of the typical love triangle that we often see. Instead, the dynamics between the main characters are approached in a refreshing manner that's quite rare for the genre, making their interactions feel more genuine and relatable.

Moreover, the action and fight scenes are integrated seamlessly into the storyline. They don't just serve as mere spectacles; they actually contribute to character development and plot progression. The unique cartoonish graphic style adds a whimsical touch that contrasts with the high-stakes moments, infusing a delightful sense of humor that enhances the overall enjoyment of the show.drama.

Lee Minho, after his top-notch performance in Pachinko as a rich, hot, and ruthless yakuza, makes a stellar comeback to the K-drama industry with the science-fiction rom-com When the Stars Gossip. The drama offers a refreshing change of pace, blending a fast-paced storyline with stunning visuals that are a treat for the eyes.

Known for exploring love in unconventional settings-be it under the sea (The Legend of the Blue Sea) or in a parallel universe (The King: Eternal Monarch)-Lee Minho takes romance to new heights, quite literally, as he searches for love in space this time. His impeccable comedic timing in this drama will leave you in stitches, proving once again why he's called the Romance King.

From the very first episode, When the Stars Gossip hooks viewers with its unique premise, captivating storyline, and Minho's undeniable charm. It's a must-watch for fans of romance, comedy, and science fiction!

The show brings a refreshing new concept to the screen, and the acting done by Lee Min Ho is nothing short of exceptional. Although the storyline could have delved deeper into mystery, the stellar performances by the entire cast manage to keep the viewers hooked throughout. Lee Min Ho's portrayal is particularly captivating, and it leaves me eagerly anticipating the day we get to see him in a full-time medical drama as a doctor.

Additionally, the lead actress who played Eve deserves special mention for her remarkable acting skills. Her performance is powerful and leaves a lasting impression. Overall, despite minor narrative gaps, the show is engaging and a must-watch for fans of strong performances.

Loved it from the beginning. I felt that the show has a level of international and more mature Kdramas. I mean the images, the colors, styles of people are very different, we don't feel the clichés and we see some issues that we face in space (even with some sci fi). That make it very immersive. From my side, I liked the chemistry between the two, Eve being kind of shy and Gong Ryong being more straight and spontaeous. He is also very funny and i like him being impulsive in space.

A show that I think we will love to continue, and take time to appreciate it, without having this addictive side.
