Unfollow

Too short and a bit creepy....

Sukfilm is obviously the master of cliché plots. It's not like all clichés are bad, but when the story centers around it, it makes things a bit akward. "if you make me upset I need to punish you" - WTF? - and then forcing a kiss. That's a red flag for me - kissing without consent is really not ok, even when the other person does like it. But with only three episodes roughly six minutes each, there is not a lot of time to tell a comprehenisve story.

I can't fault the actors who did a really good job and look appealing. But as usual it's the same fake locations which do not feel very convincing. So, it's a cliché centered story with not much depth because there was no time to tell it in a good way. Bonus points are awarded for the visuals which were really on point. But besides that it's more or less medicore.

episode 1 was cute, episodes 2 and 3 not so much

Overall: the episode was adorable, but sadly the taller protagonist became a creep. 3 episodes aired on Sukfilm YouTube channel https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYfaogVGCvwRyiN_T-FGdRCUj9cxgr0Gn&si=hrdtTjcl9etN7ACD

Content Warnings: there is borderline/is emotional partner abuse/lovebombing, non con kissing seemed to turn consensual

What I Liked
- episode 1
- mostly centered on 2 characters
- visuals

Room For Improvement
- the taller guy was giving creepy/ignoring boundary vibes, when he said "if you keep making me upset, you have to be punished", "don't even think about running away" in episode 2 and "do you think I'll just let him run away" in episode 3 the lines came across as very threatening, it's like he thought the shorter guy was an object that he deserved instead of a person with their own agency
- stupid plan in episode 3
- a character said he wasn't into guys in episode 2
- background music is too loud and constant

SUCKING THIS BITCHES SHIT WHILE STANDING UP.

I am realizing that this show is called Unfollow because he unfollowed him at the start, lmao. Sorry, I'm dumb as fuck lmao. I thought this show was okay; I would give it like a 6.5 or a 7, but I will give it a 7 because I am going to be nice. Yeah, the way I organized my notes is really throwing me off right now because I was being very netural on everything, so I am going to group things into two groups, slightly more postive and slightly less postive and then be done with this lmao (so a little differently then I normally do my reviews but you know what thats fine).

Slightly More Positive:

1. I like their height difference (hence why my headline for this is the way it is)
Relating to their height difference, the shorter guy looks so fucking young- oh my god- so I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing, but it is something I pointed out.
The guy who is a fucking giant lowkey looks like the Korean version of the Thai actor Tay Tawan if you squint hard enough and do like five circles.
2. The plot is fun
So he is in a study group with this guy, and he is stalking his Instagram one day, and he accidentally follows him and likes his first picture; very relatable, I feel that on a molecular level. But then he embarrasses himself further by unfollowing him, and I think Korean Tay Tawan, aka Big Daddy, lowkey has that app that tells you when people unfollow you because how did he find out immediately, bitch NEXT.
3. They kissed...yay?
4. And finally, for slightly positive things, on part of the show someone was belting on the god damn back track, and I say hell yeah to that. Give that person a raise right now, please, and thank you.

Slightly Less Positive:

1. (I am actually gonna go look at what the characters' names were because god, I can't be bothered to remember). Kang Tae Jun (tall nigga) is a fucking fan, my lord.
One, why do we know that he unfollowed you? Two, why are we waiting on his DM like it's your beck and fucking call? We actually need to back off, my lord; I'm begging you. You are a god damn fan, bro, like shit; that was just irritating me.
2. Choi Hyejin (if that is even her name, I am not going back to check because fuck her)
We are almost done with this show, but no. We desperately need another one-off pointless character in this god damn 30 minute show, because for some reason we can't write plots better than that. She comes in with her wispy ass bangs, talking about oh oppa, oppa this, oppa that, OPPA HOW ABOUT YOU SUCK MY FUCKING BALLS, HUH? GIRL, RENT CANNOT BE THIS HIGH, PLEASE STOP. I said: "Talking about some oppa, bitch; you should be worrying about your bangs NEXT."
3. And following that, because all we want to do is sit here and hold our balls as we get off, is the misunderstanding that came with oppa girl. LIKE WE DIDN'T NEED THAT, BYE!
4. Finally, for my not-so-positive things, I think the chem was a little off and not really anything special (I am reading other people's reviews, and I think that's because the tall guy's character was creepy at the end; I just didn't realize it lmao). But what could have saved this dumb ass show? Really didn't, so fuck me, fuck them, and fuck this show for that matter.

But yeah, I would say I am pretty neutral about this show, leaning more towards negativity because I'm a hater, but yeah. It was pretty short and very to the point, which is nice. There were some pretty pointless characters, which I feel like the show could have done without, but you know what, that's fine. Okay bye!

Acting was okay & the OST was fine.

This is a very short series, so I didn't expect much in the way of plot, which was good, because we got very little outside of a walking red flag. Tae Jun creeped me out from the very first episode & he only seemed to get creepier with each passing minute. Who gets so obsessed with someone for following and unfollowing them and then leaving them on read? I'm not saying this isn't possible; I'm sure it's happened, but Tae Jun takes it into psycho territory. I'm sure if this had had a longer run time, we could have gotten something very interesting.

The only other thing that was annoying was the very abrupt transitions. Some of them also happen at the worst moments, and it cuts the flow of the story.

Atores foram bem, em uma história um pouco bleh..

Sempre que eu vejo que haverá um novo lançamento da Sukfilm eu já fico atenta no Telegram, nem sempre a produtora consegue dar ao BL a história que ele merece, a impressão que eu tenho é que a Sukfilm produz histórias rasas e muitas vezes desconexas apenas por lançar e para impulsionar atores, e a produtora Flying Penguin produz histórias malucas com ênfase no hot/sexo.
Enfim...
O primeiro episódio foi bom, apesar de eu ficar extremamente incomodada com o excesso de filtro que colocaram. Até o cabelo dos atores pareciam desenhados invés de reais, uma pele tão lisa que era bizarra kkkkk Lá pelo terceiro episódio eu, que já não estava mais nem ai pra história e confusão que o personagem alto estava fazendo, só foquei quando finalmente vi uma espinha na cara do ator kkkkkkk
Os atores mandaram bem em seus papéis, mas realmente com episódios tão curtos e uma história um pouco dark demais - com um protagonista que fala igual aos dramas chineses verticais: "se você continuar me chateando, vou ter que te punir" kkkk - não dá para ter uma opinião um pouco melhor.
