Bitch X Rich

I watched both seasons together and whilst I loved season 1 what in the helly happened with season 2. Season 1 was soooooo good, I love high school k-dramas and season 1 didn't disappoint depicting powerful hierarchy and class clashes. Season 2 picks up from season 1 but some of the characters seemed to have personality transplants because they're doing things completely opposite to what I liked about their characters in season 1. By episode 6 I was getting so frustrated with all the characters and I'm surprised at my willlpower because I committed to watch this until the end. I actually got bored and was glad when it ended. Also the new guy in season 2 looks so much like Jin from BTS!

There aren't really any "good guys" here, and the story is fairly tight, but I don't like the editing. They tend to tease an event in one episode, then only give you the full picture in the next - which, to me, feels like they're stretching the runtime a bit.

Another small hurdle was recognizing the cast. Aside from the female lead and Yeri, I didn't know any of the new faces. But after a few episodes, I ended up recognizing all of them.

The pity is, although the female lead's acting is decent, her visuals are just... very average. I remember she used to only get small supporting roles, and now she's leading. As for Yeri, this was my first time seeing her act - she's passable, but I kept getting distracted by her lips because they're so pouty.

Loved it very much. It instantly hooked me with its amazing story, powerful acting, and nonstop thrill. The plot is sharp, mixing mystery, high school politics, and social class conflict in a bold way. I loved how fearless and smart the lead character was, and every episode kept me on edge. The suspense, the twists, and the intense atmosphere made it a gripping watch from start to finish. It's short but leaves a lasting impact - definitely one of the most gripping teen thrillers I've seen in a while. The characters are interesting too and one can feel the emotions of these characters. Highly recommended!

Korean Drama " B***h X Rich " is a school melodrama with an edgy plot. However, it gets more makjang than a mystery solving series.

The drama has a relaxing pace, which was okay at first, but didn't serve it well in the end. When things were starting to wrap up, the drama rushed things and gave the story a questionably open ending.

Also, the drama was too melodramatic at times. The twists were predictable as well and most of the characters were annoying, even the main one, though one should appreciate her brutal honesty when it came to her situation and her fighting spirit. But you could see that her choices turned into unavoidable disasters one by one.

Finally, the performances were enjoyable enough.

So, overall, three out of ten.

Watched this in the hope it might be similar to The Glory, which I really enjoyed.

Sadly, I didn't enjoy this. The writing wasn't very good, and the acting was pretty mediocre.

Good writing can make us sympathize and understand characters, but due to the poor writing here we end up becoming frustrated with characters naivety and bad decisions.

There were a number of times I thought to myself "No semi-intelligent person would act like that".

It ended up becoming irritating.

It wasn't the worst drama I've seen, and is about on par with most of the tat coming out of the USA, but I hoped for better.

I wouldn't recommend watching this.
