The Fabulous

When a Korean drama aspire to become American-Koran fusion drama = not good.

The actors played very well even though the writing was basic.

If you already watched American drama's before in your life, you've already seen this plot. Nothing new.

Wasn't boring, but definitely basic and predictable. Like many many others American series.

Even though the production was extremely good and wealthy, Netflix failed at the end.

In my opinion, when I want to see Korean drama, I don't want to see American basic one. K-drama is so different, unique, with romance and great characters, If I wanted to watch this kind of plot, I would choose "The bold type".

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.

This is easy-mode version of a Kdrama. Nothing too sophisticated nor tense. Just a gentle view thru the eyes of 4 friends since college: one a Super Model, one a rising designer, one a photographer and one working for a luxury fashion PR firm.

I had issues with the first half of the series...it wasn't bad just not very engaging. It just plodded along with the lives of these 4 friends. The romance threads were minimal, there was no mystery to solve or suspense thread being developed...just the lives of the main characters.

But finally, ep 4 introduces a new character that seems to kick start the series. Various interesting storylines are kicked off and the character development finally shifts out of neutral.... I could finally start caring about the main characters.

One thing I really liked about the series was that it was not filled with toxic side-characters. While there were certainly a few self-absorbed characters to dislike, most of the characters in power positions were actually decent people that would recognize talent and provide opportunities for newcomers to demonstrate what they could do.

Makes a decent palate cleanse between more sophisticated or intense Kdramas.

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.

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.
