Thank you for the response. I'm glad some agrees with the topics. I JUST wanted to start watching unforgetten…
I did warn you though π
Also, Cherry the vamp is hilarious. "If u didn't love you, you would have let the car hit me". Like bitch, are u gonna make him regret that forever? Even God forgives the first mistake. The guy wont stop the car next time, okay?

As long as u dont mind the dead fish lipsmacking and frankly hilarious sex scenes, it's a good watch. For a show centered around bdsm, the sexual chemistry is pretty nonexistent. I quite like the uke, Kim, as a reluctant mob-wife but I'm not sold on Yoon (Kamol) as the badass mafia boss. He is good enough for your typical uni bl seme, but he really sucks at any other facial expressions. They could have cast a better actor as Kamol.
As usual, my fav are the bodyguard side characters and 4 eps in Kamol is a much much better boss than Kinn would even wish to be.
Also, Kamol IS a stalker... But it's more along the line of following Kim around and saying "Date me... Move in with me" type of persistent annoyance than anything dangerous.
And all sex scenes are completely consensual though the scene in the latest ep was slightly dub-cony, but not enough to raise a flag. Kim comes off as a tsundere more than someone with a Stockholm syndrome.
Thanks for this... This is one of the most honest reviews I have seen of this show so far. I actually commend you for finishing the whole series. I folded in ep. 3. All those points you raised, I had same issues.
I was told by show watchers and even novel readers that it would improve a lot, but then Kinn r-ped Porsche and well, nope. I can forgive a lot of things but r-pe without consequences and falling in love with your r-pist isnt one of them. As someone who is been into BL since early-2000s, r-pe to love stories have no place in 2022.
On a different note, have you checked out Unforgetten Night yet? It's also a mafia-civilian love story with actually consensual BDSM (like whaaaaa--), I think u might enjoy it more.
No, FL. he is a medieval vampire hunting pastor transmigrated into a bodybof a rookie idol. No women in his life
His singing skills** Rembary the priest has a miraculous healing voice. So when becomes the idol, he changes from dance-liner to a main vocal, later known as Healing Idol (kinda reminded me of BTOB coz they are called Healing idols lmao)
Fan casting for the ACTUAL mains till we get any new info?
Personally, I like Pentagon Wooseok for Gerard Jin. He is freaking tall, good with his legs, has a natural RBF and can carry off Blue/Green hair like a boss. Also if u look their Live performances, esp darker songs, his expressions are amazing. He doesn't have much acting experience but he would totally shine here, IMHO.
maybe they'll add them later when we are going to know more information? I mean, we really don't have any main…
I hope so... But Grey's backstory doesn't deserve a full season... Maybe 3 episodes at most... Also both new actors are credited as "main role" for both seasons and the PD himself said (it's in the article) that the main cast is complete... Like what??
I feel like I shouldn't have celebrated too early.
What?? They cast Stephen Ahn and that suck up-turned-bully who had like a 15 mins runtime in the actual story as main characters. They are important for Grey's backstory, but where are the ACTUAL main characters... Ben, Alex, Gerard, Eugene and Rowan?
These two are minor characters at best... Hell, even Helmet has more inportance to the story than stupid Bryce. Stephen I can understand, coz he is the reason Grey started fighting, but that's about it. He literally has no other role in the ongoing story....
Currently the content rating listed here is "18+ Restricted (violence & profanity)" so I'm hopeful. I did read…
It's harder to find shorter actors/idols than taller ones, so i don't mind if Grey actor doesn't match his height as long as he gets his innocence ans violence across.
For Gerard, I guess there are quite a few tall actors, but his unique feature is his extra long legs, so I hope they cast someone like TXT Soobin (not him, obviously, he doesn't fit, but someone similar)
I am more interested in who they cast as my bae/bias Big Ben than the others.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuu I feel I'm gonna have a mental breakdown waiting for this. Thank the adaptation Gods for picking up this masterpiece. I can't wait to see the rest of the cast.
I really hope they go all out with the fights and not all half-ass it for the rating. Also hope they get real leggy bastard for Gerard.
I agree with u. I am not an ACE fan, just ur typical fujoshi. J-pop has started this trend of having idols do BLs and I'm glad K-pop is catching up.
Tinted with you is one of the better bls I have watched in a while. The chemistry between the leads is pure fire (as it should be). The cinematography is to die for. As a fan of nature photography and scenery paintings, it was a nature porn for me.
Also, the subtle hints of 3P... Eunho understanding that Geum also has feelings for Heon, the sleeping scene and finally the last scene. I hope there is a 2nd season with same leads which explores it. Probably the first time in a very very long time, I want a love triangle to be "tri"angle hehe.
nthusiast and
I checked out ACE afterwards and was kinda surprised that Eunho who plays a bubby highschooler is actually a serious 28-yr old with heavenly voice. I am more into vocals than rap or dance (Seo Eunkwang is my ukt bias), so him being a singer was a definite plus for me. I am glad I found ACE through this.
Anyways, thanks for the recs π

The translation has only 13 chaps so far, so it's AMAZING.
11/12th century European vampire hunting priest gets isekai'd into a body of 4th gen a rookie kpop idol.
He is a Christian priest, then a kpop idol lmao. No romance in both lives ππ
He has a female demon sidekick in past life, idk if she also made it in modern times. But it's not a romance afaik.
I CANT BELIEVE HOLY IDOL IS GETTING ADAPTED. WITH KIM MINGUE !!!
Well, I did. At ep 3, lmao.

Are there ANY OTHER FAN CASTS you can think of?
