I will introduce an American TV series, Gossip Girl. Gossip Girl is the genre of romance. It started in 2007 and ended in 2012. The original story is a novel by Cecily von Ziegesar. It is a very long series that has 6 parts in total, but every part is interesting and makes us feel tension. Human relationships are complicated, and each character is unique and attractive with some good points. Blake Lively played Serena, Leighton Meester played Blair, Penn Badgley played Dan, Chace Crawfoed played Nate, and Ed Westwick played Chuuk. There are a total of 5 people who are main characters.
The setting of this TV series is in the Upper East Side of New York City. It is a city where rich people live in America. This story starts from high school. A site called Gossip Girl became popular in their high school life. This site spreads information about student’s secrets, so there are a lot of accidents and trouble. Some students decided to look for the maker of Gossip Girl who afflicted them.
The spirit and humanity of people grow by having various experiences, so I can sometimes empathize with their situation when I watch it. I stopped to watch it many times, so I took 3 months to watch it. However I really wanted to know about Gossip Girl, so I never gave up, and I finished watching. I can’t imagine this TV series is over.
