Aishat Aiki

Yessssss 25-21 is the only right answer if I were to pick between the two

A Person Who Likes Cats

aww noo I wanted flower of evil here :(( I'll be back soon

Snax

The only point of you commenting is to add animosity to a conversation that was ended on a good note. Why did you feel the need to say anything here? The discussion is over. Move on and enjoy your show.

thing is other people pay too, and the voting clearly shows that the majority of ppl voted for 2521. People who pay voted for it.

Noo... I was really excited for Itaewon Class :(

kemia Robinson

Yeah it’s romantic and sort of coming of age??

kemia Robinson

2521 omg

Helen H

then don't watch

Katia Gaona

Personally I don’t think itaewon class was bad or anything. I just prefer reacting to a show I haven’t seen everyone react to. I felt the same with crash landing on you. It was the first kdrama I ever watched and I really like it but I’ve seen so many people react to it that I hoped for something else. But the guys still gave a great reaction.

J Knight

only the people who like 25 21 and itaeowon class are allowed to have an opinion shut up

tika

ur mad bc they didn’t pick a drama YOU wanted? childish asf 😭

Sami

this was low-key wholesome

Ashley K

Seriously, this isn't the last drama they're watching. Why can't ppl simply vote for what they want without trashing the other options? I think ppl have misconceptions about it and missed the whole point of the show and hate on it bc of the fml or the racism scene. The whole point of the show was to shed light on the complex characters and what the Korean society would consider their traits as "flaws" and unacceptable in their society. It's about overcoming them and their growth. I thought it was very inspirational.

Yas

25, 21 SUCKS a waste of time

Dallgi

*everyone chillax and just vote :)*

Snax

People get defensive over those they care about and when they feel their ideals or morals are being attacked. I understand. I think everyone, including myself, could use with taking a step back and taking a deep breath. Jumping down everyone's throat for one reason or another will only spread more negativity than there ever needs to be. I'm sorry for also getting worked up and overly defensive with you as well. Hopefully cooler heads will prevail in the future. Happy streaming.

Fiyin Cole

With either one that wins ppl are acting like it will be the last one they will watch fr😭like even if they watch iteawon class, it’s gonna finish in 16 episodes and another one will come along💀

Fiyin Cole

Frrr, like the amount of “no please not itaewon noo” I saw in the last poll was insane, some of the reasons were low key dumb too💀

Anette Lanette

oh yes I totally agree that you do not need to like everything someone does just because you support them, I should’ve clarified and been more careful with my words when it came to that. everyone has a right to feel what they want, I just didn’t like all the arguments back and forth between people who are supposed to be coming together to support this group of men who we all paid for. I just don’t like negativity and I guess I added to that, which is hypocritical. thank you for clarifying what you meant Snax 🤍

Snax

Fair enough. I'll take it with a grain of salt. Just understand that people are allowed to be annoyed, angry, disappointed, and bored with the content that someone they're paying is creating. Being a fan doesn't mean you need to support everything they do. That's ok. Doesn't make you any less of a fan than someone who loves everything they do. I'm happy you see value in continuing to spend your money on them. You don't get to judge people who don't. You clearly don't like people judging you on how much money you have or how you spend it either. So accept that not everyone is going to be happy and will and can find other ways to support their faves. Just like how you can express your annoyance with people being upset, they're also allowed to express their opinions on what they do and don't like.

Cocalita

Exactly.

Anette Lanette

if there is hypocrisy in my statement, then I apologize. im genuinely not trying to come off any way.

Snax

The hypocrisy in your statement though...But sure. Lol. Love and respect.

Anette Lanette

I don’t have money lying around to spend on anything and I decided to use some of my money to support them through Patreon. but that has nothing to do with what I said. I don’t like that people are in the comments having petty arguments about a reactor reacting to a show they may not want to watch. it is not the end of the world and we should be here to support the reel reacts (no matter if it’s through here or YouTube) and support each other and encourage one another. you assuming i have the money to feeling spend on whatever I want is not okay for you to assume. I’m sorry if offended you or anyone else with my comment Snax, please let’s keep the love and respect

Anette Lanette

I never brought up having to support them through monetary reasons. I support them through YouTube as well. and I never said anyone was guilt tripping. if you aren’t the people I’m talking about then you don’t need to feel a way about what I said.

Desirae

Didn’t think Itaewon Class was that bad. Y’all make it seem like it’s the worst drama out there lol. Even if it doesn’t win it’s still gonna be an option later on. Ppl too crazy sometimes.

Snax

There's nothing wrong with not wanting to watch a show you don't like. And you and others like you don't get to gatekeep how someone likes or supports others. Not everyone wants to spend or has the extra money to spend on things that don't benefit them. I watch reactors who I connect with, whether in taste for games and shows or mentally with how they analyze or touch on difficult topics. I don't unfortunately have money just floating around for me to drop on things though, that I don't get that connection from. But just because some people don't support them monetarily doesn't mean that they aren't going to continue to support them. There's still youtube, and many, including myself, have said they'll come back when something has changed. You people need to understand that you can be a fan without monetary support. Congrats on others for being able to freely afford spending money however they want or loving all the shows they watch and finding that connection. Not everyone is like you, and that's ok. And it's ok to express that as well. No one is guilt tripping them. Saying 'you've lost fans' or 'I'm never coming back again' or 'I'm leaving unless you change your mind', that can be considered guilt tripping. Saying 'I'm going to leave for now and check back later for a different show' is not guilt tripping.

I don't understand why everyone is getting so mad in the comments . This int the Las kdrama here gonna watch chill. Besides let's be fr i couldn't finish it but 2521 is better than itaewon class. Anything is tbh. The movie is ass and boring

Faye Comments

**grabbing popcorn knowing the comments will be all drama 🤣**

Ashley K

I think those are reason enough to say it’s similar. Yes 2521 has a more inspirational vibe in a different time setting but it’s still similar to the coming of age, falling in love, sports/school aspects. Just wanted to introduce something totally different to them this time. Don’t misunderstand, I like this show a lot. Like it a lot better than WBFKBJ.

Anette Lanette

if you are here watching these 3 guys because you want them to watch YOUR favorite show or movie, then you are here for the wrong reasons. I come to watch The Reel Reacts because I genuinely like these guys and love their reactions, I don’t care what show or movie the decide to react to because I’m not here for that. you guys in the comments complaining and getting upset over something this small just shows what you are really here for.

Anette Lanette

2521 is not a romcom, it’s more about the main character focusing on pursuing her dreams and growing. i cried to this drama and honestly decided to pick up fencing because of it. the OST is this on my playlist after watching the drama. you should check it out before making an assumption like that

Anette Lanette

weightlifting fairy was funny very modern in how most romantic kdramas go. but 2521 is inspirational, keeps you on your toes, and has you connecting with the characters. they feel more real than the characters in Weightlifting fairy (don’t get me wrong, it’s still one of my favorite kdramas)

zizijoonie

Uhh the endding . Cannot go through it again 🥲

Fiyin Cole

Exactly, ppl are forgetting or just choosing to ignore the fact that they themselves said they picked the shows that looked interesting to THEM out all the ones suggested.

Cocalita

Romcom = romantic comedy. 2521 (which I haven't seen) is not a romcom. It is a romantic drama. It is not the same thing. Also, have you heard the guys say they don't like romantic movies? But better yet, it seems to me that the guys picked these selections themselves for us to vote on. This wasn't done the old way.

Cocalita

LOL. oh? So the sports thing locks it up? Do you know how many sport centered, romantic dramas there are? Are they all similar?

Cocalita

That's what I said. I don't think they know what the word "similar" means.

Katia Gaona

I honestly don’t see why people say WFKBJ is similar to 2521 just because of the male lead and that’s it’s a sports drama. Other than those 2 details the show in itself is really different. And definitely not as romcom as WFKBJ

olka

um its also a sport drama

coney

I think you should make the polls for ppl to vote by genres next time so that you don't end up getting only the romcom 😂

Marián

It always wins the sport drama for some reason hahaha

Nakia Smith

Childish

Cocalita

How is it similar to WFKBJ besides the same male actor and it being romance centered?

Katie

Yeah, I mean both are receiving some bad reviews and good ones so it was hard to tell. Though I looked up both plots and Itaewon might not be perfect but it has a plot that interests me more. I think i'm voting for it too

madi

yall are tripping in these comments its never that serious i assure u😭

Ashley K

I voted for Itaewon bc they recently watched WFKBJ which is very similar to 2521 (even the male lead is the same actor)

Katie

I never watched either show but the way people talk about them both certainly doesn't help narrow down which one would be best to vote for...

cindiiii

There are a lot of whiners in the comments 😒 if you’re not happy, make your own reaction channel

Rubie

I voted for Itaewon Class because between the two of them it has the best story but it seems by looking at the poll that it's gonna be a sport romance again...

Briana J

My dramas (Flower of Evil and Sweet Home) didn't get picked from the last poll but I'm pretty sure this poll is because these two dramas had the highest number of votes so I'm not sure why there's confusion. These two dramas were tied. PS. For future references please watch BEYOND EVIL and VINCENZO.

Helen H

and vincenzo

Yoona

Really hope you gonna watch goblin too

Ashley K

Splitting them into genres may or may not work. It's been proven numerously on this channel that if a comedy or some other genre wins, we'd end up watching a romcom or a romance with a hint of that other genre. It'd be especially harder since Korean dramas and movies tend to jam-pack all the various genres into one show/movie lol

dragonflyingash

Oh my goodness, why do these Kdrama posts always bring the most drama. Perhaps someone can clear this up for me: weren't the shows in the last poll the shows the guys chose themselves to be in the poll based on their new system of choosing (not based on popular vote)? It seeemed to be a mix of shows from the last poll and other shows that have come up in suggestions. I just assumed there were already making decisions on their own on what to include in polls like they were doing in the movie polls.

Snax

What would be an interesting shake up is if they took the most voted for and the least voted for in the polls and watched those each time. Also separating the polls in to genres would be a great idea as well.

Ashley K

Hence me saying I harped about Itaewon since January. If you’re that worried, you can always go binge your good taste penthouse before the sun explodes 👍🏻

Jen

frrrr its not that serious i bet eventually they'll both be watched anyways even though I want one more than the other its honestly chillll

J Knight

how do you know other shows are going to get their turn? the sun could explode right now and i would have died without my penthouse reaction because y'all have bad taste 😢

jadespademarmalade

Lot of animosity in these comments over a tv show…

Ashley K

Some people are so feral and need to chill. It's really not that big of a deal. Some people patiently waited months for either of these shows to make it up this high in a poll. I harped about Itaewon since January like others have harped about 2521. So the other shows will eventually get their turn. No need to be disrespectful towards the guys' selections and everyone else's votes by being hateful in the comments just because your favorite didn't win this time around. These are both great shows in their own aspect and rightfully this high up in the polls for those reasons. In blunt terms, STOP SHITTING ON THEM.

emily ღ

exactly!! right now, i don't like either of these two options, but i'm voting with the one i would rather them do slightly over the other one. but i'm not thrilled those are the only two options. i'd rather them toss up some others as well just to see how they rank. sky castle for example, or a thriller/mystery. to me, a problem with the recent k-dramas that get the netflix hype is that they all seem very, very much the same. i'm crossing my fingers for something different the next go-around

Leelee

I really wish you create one more tie breaker poll including 3rd and 4th. I feel like people are voting not for what they want but for what they would rather not watch at this point. If Goblin and Flower of Evil are in the poll, I think it might bring different results. To me those two are far superior than the current two in vote, in terms of quality and writing :(

Bie Rosales

2521....(Goblin)

Jane Thomas

I actually couldn’t finish either of those dramas. I hope you guys will enjoy it though

Jai

I am park seojoons #1 fan but literally couldn’t finish itaewon class. The racism aspects are handled so horribly

Kay

forever wishing one ordinary day, mouse, come and huge me, the smile has left your eyes, vagabond and even flower of evil to win polls but some of these kdrama watchers haven’t even seen them so they’ll never win 😭

Mamo

Where’s hometown cha cha cha

Libby

2521 puh-leeeeeeese!!!! 😘

Alzu

2521 😁

Surrey96

Itaewon Class !!! 25/21 is a little similar to weightlifting Kim Bok Joo?

janinpala

Come on guys vote for itaewon class!

Cecilie

I have been translating itaewon class at university... I would much rather it being 2521 so I don't think about studying lmaoo Still wish flower of evil had a chance on the poll tho 😭😭
