can you feel my heartbeat ?

Comecei a assistir pelo Taecyeon e me apaixonei pelo drama . Achei o cast muito bom e os personagens são bem trabalhados durante a série .
Minha nota só não foi mais alta pelo final triste do protagonista , eu achei injusto o Woo Hyul ter morrido e se sacrificado pela In Hae quando ela quem bagunçou tudo abrindo o caixão dele . Eu acho que dava pra fazer um final feliz com tudo se resolvendo melhor , até o Do Sik teve um final melhor que o protagonista rs .

Sobre os personagens em si eu achei o Min hwi um ótimo vilão . O ator tinha expressões muito boas e eu adorei a perfomance dele nesse drama , espero ver ele mais vezes !!

A história do drama em si é boa , porém , curta , não tinha necessidade de todas aquelas cenas chatinhas envolvendo a açougueira e a vizinhança , achei repetitivo .

Em sumo é um drama legal com um bom elenco porém com um final inesperado , não sei se reassistiria , porém recomendo .

The wind that blows me into your love

A happy-to-cried-with kind of drama. For subjective reasoning, they literally made me into tears ever since the pilot episode. I just love it when I find myself indulging in a series that talks about the romance between two individuals with sincerity and a little bit of tension roaming between them. The main couple’s love story may have taken too slow to progress but one thing is guaranteed; they became each other’s person of support.

Im Han Tae is another Oppa that added to my favorite list. He got the masculine vibes of a teenager who is both hot and cute. His smiles and positivity are so breathtaking. People can literally be their best version of themselves when they are wearing a smile on their faces. I want someone like Im Han Tae who will always be on your side.

On the contrary, Han Baram’s soft personality led other people to take advantage of him. He is so fragile that I even dislike him for letting his old music teacher plagiarize his song. These episodes were an eye sore to me. His first love actually wins my irritation and frustration. Good thing that they actually had a nice closure to settle the past and the present issues between them.

Light BLs with no dramatic plot twists and toxic characters are easily been tagged as my favorite genres nowadays. Sing My Crush is another drama that gives me butterflies that are solid and demure. There may be some flaws in the show but the critical thing is that I enjoyed the overall outcome. Thank you for bringing a genuine and appealing love story that made me once again, fall in love with the concept of love.

PLS GIVE ME ALSO THAT MUSIC GLASS BALL THING !

By the way, let me say that I am really really glad that it was Gawin who's chosen to play the lead here ! like I am really really glad coz, Gawin is my super crush eversince like since kiss me again the series ! and my god ! he did great acting here and super handsome and really a green flag !!
I am obsessed with this drama, for me it is more than a BL series, it's a story that is rich of lessons in life. I was really moved by the part where Kawii tried to avoid his Dad's death coz of sickness l, in the end kawi is not able to prevent it and I thought, when it comes to life and death, there is nothing we can do about it even if there's a magic music glass ball, I don't know what it's called-- if it is the persons time to die it will be ..
How I wish I could also have a chance like kawi to go back and fort to the past and present to see what will it be there and see if I could change anything coz , Man ! i have so much that I wanted to change and avoid and correct in my life.
Kawi tried to choose the path of being famous and having the girl of his dream, but in his story, I thought that nothing in this world can make your life the way you wanted it to be, sometimes you have to expect the worst, you cannot get everything you want and you cannot make every people have their favor on you, well, at least Kawi is able to experience being famous and later found out that no matter how famous and influential you are, when you are alone and in times of trial, none of those things matters, but what matter is the person who will be by our side. But still, I still want to be famous ! lol
About the Chemistry of Kawi and Pisaeng, I am obsessed ! they are so cute and funny, I am really glad on this couple and this love story will be one of my all time favorite from now on! I like pear, GMMTV is done with the mean pretty girls in their dramas, let me say !
I understood the story easily, the progression is great and on the final part , it was so exciting specially when Pisaeng also tried to go back in the past, I kinda thought that when another person uses the magic music ball there will be some errors or like some consequences, but I realized if it is that so, the producers should add more episode to elaborate it, And on the story there's nothing happened like that.. like maybe on the writers thought , they just want to show that the ball is only to correct and make the life of Kawi better, like no complicated things and that's what makes this drama light ! this is a phenomenal drama ! lucky Kawi is ! he's got a chance.
Later the couple didn't want to change anything even when they knew the future, they just wanted to hold on to their choices of each other like it is their right thing .. I love that so much , Just to add, I liked the, is it prologue ? like the scene is shown after the episode like as an additional POV of the scene or a character there, I liked that so much, making my watching so much fun !
Lastly, the signature beach ending and kissing scene ! like my mind is blowing, together with playing Gawin's song while all the sweet moments of the couple is on a flash back .. like I am obsessed.
this will be my one of the most recommended drama,
surely gonna re watch many times in my life !

The best way I can describe this is that it is a fanfiction remake of the first season. You can't really call this a sequel because it did not continue the story from the previous season and while it did have mild mentions and references to the first season you could watch this without ever watching the first. This took the basic premise of the first season and just redid it, albeit they did it better but its still just a remake.

Things to note going into this from the first is that the characters all have a dramatic change to them. These will not be the characters you got familiar with previously. The personalities are all very different, again to me it felt so much like watching a fanfiction. In comparison to the last season this season had better cinematography, wardrobe, and story line. It executed the story in a more straight forward way this time and focused a lot on the relationship growth.

That being said it was almost too fluffy for my taste. You can't take any of it serious, including the antagonists as they are so over the top and silly. The romances, this focuses on two romances this time, do progress fairly naturally and have their cute moments throughout. But there isn't anything about this series that makes it great. If you just want something that you can turn your brain off for and will make you smile occasionally then this will be it for you. If you want something that will hit your emotions or leave a lasting impression then you won't find that here.

A remake but has the Korean flare and acting top class

It is an adaptation but it can stand on its own. The Korean flavor is added to make it appealing to your standard kdrama audience. The OST, cinematography and acting are perfect especially the lead actress who showcased the different characters and in different timeline

A lot will compare this to the original drama thus OG watchers will have certain expectations and may not be happy about it - but this version has its own DNA and should be watched on its own.


Love it so much and would highly recommend!

Had so much potential

FL did it for me. Just horrible acting. She did better here than The journey of Chong Zi. But even then, she just got more and more annoying with each episode and everything looks force which makes you not able to connect to the character.

Ryan Ding did a great job and I tried to keep going because of him but just couldn’t. A strong actor that tries to carry this series because of weak FL, i feel bad for him.

They could have used other better actress that in my opinion is very pretty as well like Zhao Lusi who ready shows great chemistry with Ryan Ding in Romance of Tiger and Rose.

Music, costumes and cinematography were great, however FL just didn’t cut it.

Those who want to watch a cute FL that can’t act, go for it but not for me.

don’t watch if you like satisfying/happy endings

don’t waste your time on this drama unless you like sad, unsatisfactory endings… I literally finished it and sat for 5min staring at the screen saying “W. T. F. …” like forreal what was that ending!?! even during the show like it was amazing and hilarious first couple of episodes I was SO excited but then it kept declining more and more and it was the same thing every episode from like 9-16 no progress at all and all for it to end sad and unsatisfying… this could’ve been an amazing drama I don’t understand why they went this route… if you like sad endings then watch it but I on the other hand like watching happy/funny shows with satisfying endings to make me happy and distract me from how stressful real life is… so if you’re like that—skip this one! :(

BWH&H 2: That One

As the first sequel in this series, this one is a bit of a mixed bag. It wasn't what I had expected it to be the first time I saw it, and I was initially a little let down. Instead of following Hirono Shozo this time, we have a new main character and Shozo only makes appearances here and there. Given how things all play out, I actually enjoyed this movie much more on my second watch of it. Once you have the proper expectations, it flows better. That said, it is still my least favorite of the 5 main films.

This was the last film to follow a true story too, so it's kind of cool to see the other side of things. I think the reason I don't like it as much is because the new main lead for this one doesn't have ANY redeeming qualities, and so we're just watching him screw things up everywhere he goes.

I don't have much else to say about this one. It's still a must-see if you plan to watch this series, even though it often feels more like a side story or spin off than a true sequel. You will miss important details if you skip it.

Could have been better

This pacing of this show was so weird/wild and all over the place especially in regards to the timelines. With a better script, better pacing and longer run time, this would have been one of the best KBLs because the chemistry of our leads was just ?. The leads with the 2 SMLs and the 3 female characters acting was really good. Some of the side characters or extras were over acting but over all pretty decent acting. The actor that played the director was such a whole damn mood. He was the shining star of this drama hands down. He’s facial expressions were incredible and they were giving hunnnyyyy.
I don’t think I will necessarily rewatch this but I do recommend if you are looking for something fast/easy with good chemistry.

Touching and Romantic

A classic 2000s drama with all the dramtics and romance. Yes there are a lot of cliques like the amnesia plot line and with as second leads fighting to break the main couple apart. Why I gave this drama a high rating is simply because I love the main leads their story was beautiful and at times heartbreaking. It really gives you all the feels and the OST for this drama is still stuck in my head. If you love romance and a nostalgic vibe I highly recommend this drama. There will be times when the story drags I recommend skipping forward some scenes to lessen the unimportant scenes.

A step in the right direction!

Netflix has being trying to adapt to live action manga/anime stories for a while and after the incredibly mild version they released of cult classic Cowboy Bebop, I was unsure if I should give One Piece a chance.

Based on the long-running story by Japanese mangaka Oda Eiichiro, the first season is a somewhat faithful version of the first 100 chapters of the original work. We meet most of the main characters, their backgrounds and motivations, as they come together to become the Straw Hat Crew.

This “new” version of the beloved series is primed to be a commercial success, make fans happy and bring a new audience. The story is entertaining, the characters incredibly charming, their chemistry off charts, and the world building super interesting.

The show it’s not perfect but you can see they did their darnest to make it fun for everyone. Overall, I think it‘s a step in the right direction of live action adaptations.

Obviously not a thriller

It started out promising with the serial killer mystery then it was poorly executed on so many levels.

1. Plot was predictable and there was no mystery even before midway.
2. "Romance" Why bother with the romance if you are not even go build the connection . That "I like you" came out of left field
3. No stand out likeable characters .... well there was 1 and he was killed.
4. Excessive yelling - ML cop character's yelling didn't make the drama feel more intense but rather it was just noise.
5. Mounting evidence ..... That's how they wrapped the obvious crime.
Do you admit your crime? no? here is a recording
Do you admit your crime? no? here is a video
Do you admit your crime? no? here is a witness
Do you admit your crime? no? here is a video of you ... in the act .............................

Just watch "Children of Nobody" instead

the story is not boring

I’m really into retro aesthetics, especially the Japanese ones! this movie shows the simplicity and naturally and focus on the characters rather than fancy scenarios and super chic outfits and places! I like the story and it’s not boring, its the kind of drama that makes you remember of someone special, it’s my second time watching so it was very nice! I recommend this movie to people who are into Japanese style movies I can feel that everything about the drama is natural and it’s just the closest to reality back then in japan!

Another Search: WWW

This is one of the better dramas I’ve seen in a long, long time. The acting was superb and the storyline was just so darn good. I related as a professional woman with all she went through in her career. It brought back my own pursuit of a man whom so many women were attracted to. I loved the chase and the dance between two people meant for each other. Elvis acted to perfection the part of a man who any woman would be attracted to. The game they played with each other kept me completely entertained, counting the days until the next episode. 10 stars! Her sister was also so real and so interesting a character. No cliches here. It was just a good story about life. Watch this one.

A pleasant Filipino comedy with a slightly less realistic story at the end made me happy, mainly because of the fine exaggeration and above all the very good acting performances of Ron (Albert Martinez) and Nick (Erik Quizon, one of the two directors of this film), which mainly make the film funny .

I do not recommend this older pinoy feel good movie to those who are eternally pessimistic, bitter and look for only faults and deep stories in every picture ...
