This is a very interesting drama, I didn't really expect a game storyline but I really enjoyed it. I waited until a few days after it finished, so I could watch it all in one go. It was very enjoyable to watch - it may be short but I think the duration is just right, if it was any longer, I think it may have dragged a bit. I think this series is great to watch for those who want to get into Korean BL series. I liked the chemistry of the main leads and would possibly watch again in the future.

Love this
At first I kinda hesitant to watch this. But as I don't have anything to watch, I give this a try. And I am not sorry to give this a try,And so should you!
Throughout the drama, I keep thinking, what would be the end, and then BAM! They give you that kind of ending. Girrrrlllllll........
Go, watch it! Go now

Masterful!
I loved this BL series from start to finish. I didn't want it to end. I cried on the last episode, it was so emotional!
I absolutely need a second season. or maybe a new project with the same cast.
All the characters are loveable, except for that blond guy for sure, hah
Lee Tae Vin is such a brilliant actor, he has natural charisma and talent! Myung Ha is my favorite character, and I fell in love with him!
Cha Joo Wan is an excellent actor too, he is gorgeous; the way he portrays his character with all this vulnerability, and fondness toward Myung Ha is too adorable/ cute.
Their chemistry is 100% believable and out of this world, I never noticed a cringe or awkward moment between them. Their kisses scenes make me melt. Goosebumps!!! What a marvelous and perfect BL couple!
Min Su and Woongki did a fantastic job as well. Kudos to the whole cast, production, and directing.
I highly recommend this series, it's worth rewatching it a thousand times because it's too good. It certainly is at the top 1 on my list of all-time faves KBLS and at the top 5 of my favorites BLs in general.
Love for Love's Sake is one of the best KBLS of all time. It's a masterpiece, it's a gem, period.

Best Drama
I absolutely love this show. The chemistry between the two leads was amazing. I haven't seen this type of story done in a BL before and it was executed so well. I can't find any faults with the series myself as I felt it was done so brilliantly. I've rewatched this series so many times since it finished airing. It's the best BL I've ever seen. I highly recommend watching it to see for yourself but it's truly a work of art.The people behind the scenes from the script writer(s), director and all the other people responsible for this show did a great job. It's not a surprise how many people live this show as it is truly magical.

Best Korean BL
I honestly like the cast of this drama especially the main cast, with a good story and chemistry from them is also good. Maybe if you can hold a second season because you are still curious about the next story. For 2024, maybe this is KBL with a good rating. And So far for the world of Korean Boys Love Drama is very good and maybe a little desire from us as KBL viewers that there is a need for an increase in the time or duration of airing and the number of episodes in each KBL. Success for love for love’s sake.Was this review helpful to you?
Amazing, well acted, soft but angsty drama
Not much that I can rave about without spoiling but if you’re a fan of Korean BL you really need to watch this as in my opinion it really tops a lot of them and stands up there with all the best. The acting and writing is natural and real, and the scenes come across emotional and not flat. You feel for every character and what they’re going through. The plot is also very unique and not something you usually see. Since the main character is in a “video game” all of his actions might have consequences or are done to avoid a certain consequence which was a unique element that added urgency. Anyways, the main couple also has amazing chemistry which is also important so you don’t need to worry about that. Just watch Love for Love’s sake you will NOT regret!! It’s super short and gets interesting near the end!!Was this review helpful to you?

Best drama I’ve seen in months
I absolutely LOVED this drama- the story way amazing- I never got bored- ugh it was just amazing.The premise of being stuck in a game is such a cool idea and I loved how in the later half of the drama they changed it up with the world getting corrupted and all the errors- kept the drama from getting boring and had me hooked till the end.
I’m not sure if I interpreted the ending correctly (please tell me your thoughts) but I loved what they did with it. In my head I saw the ending as he was dead and the whole time the „game world“ was heaven/a dream? And the senior he kept thinking about was god or an angel. I’m not religious by any means but that’s how I took the ending and I really did love it.
The romance was so adorable and the scene where they broke up had me in SHAMBLES. The actors were amazing, the story was amazing, everything was just amazing- I can’t praise this show enough.
If you are reading this I’m assuming you have seen the show (if not stop spoiling yourself) and I wonder if you enjoyed it as much as I did !!

Fondness: Level Infinity
I don't know if what I would write would contain spoilers but here goes everything!Myung-ha is such a lovely character, it embodies love and gentleness. It is such a great memorabilia to witness a character of his, it makes me realize that a character would exist to make me believe that somehow there is a person out there who would be just like him in many other ways.
Yeo-woon, a vulnerable yet strong character. What a sight to see, where he embodies the characteristics of a person who experiences life in a shocking way, losing someone and somehow everything you have been doing for so long becomes something you do because you have to continue and that almost everything feels forced upon you. Such a realistic character.
Both characters evolved and improved individually and as one. I love how they blended to fit each other's missing piece ❤️
I'm such a romantic when it comes to my reviews (and bad at it as well 😆) but it is such a nice refreshment (also for my tears 🥲) after a while of hardcore series that I've been watching!! ❤️

i love everything about this drama.
the ost: geez, its so catchy!
the acting: i love how every actor is acting with their whole body. the nuances were great. don't let you fool you from the first kiss. ;)
the plot - how it's unfolding episode per episode.
the humour: i am a sucker for sarcasm and goddamn, myung ha serves really well.
the characters - i hate love triangles, but love for loves sake serves from this day on my favourite love triangle, because all the characters are just absolutely likeable and endless adorable. loved myung has self-talks. but also yeo woon has such a golden personality. they all have their flaws, but it doesnt make them less likeable. at most even more relateable. i clicked with all the characters a lot and thats also the reason why i am that much emotionally connected to the drama. my eyes got teary all the time towards the ending.
the pacing: i wasnt bored at all. not a single second. i devoured every scene and rewinded all the time, to see some parts multiple times (it took me 14 hours to finish this show lmao)
the depth: yeah, you will realize pretty quickly that this show serves absolutely nice humour, but is also capeable of way more than just being funny.
the emotions.
everything.
i expected a light, fluffy, funny drama. i loved the game theme! i like transmigration and it sounded fun. but this drama is really not compareable to any other bl out there. its refreshing, new, innovative. it had me seated and i was so overwhelmed, because i got really excited and thrilled in a short time.
the ending was absolutely satisfying. for me, it wasnt predictable at all. i was so stunned multiple times through the show and that got me even more excited, because most of the dramas today are a bit boring, when it comes to this. they use the same old tropes over and over again and you already know what will happen. but love for loves sake surprised me multiple times and that made me sooo excited. its thrilling. and i couldnt imagine a better ending for this show. 0.5 stars reduced, because there are things about the plot, where i am not fully sure if i understood them correctly. if they would have made them more clear, it would be an easy 10/10
The wait was ABSOLUTELY worth it and i dont miss any second of the 14 hours, that it took me, to finish this drama.
