There is no substance to this drama. It wants to be many things, but nothing lands. It basically had all the necessary ingredients to be good but became one big cliché. I am aware it was made for young teens, but script feels like it was written by 40yo who pretends to know what it like to be today 20yo.
Give this director more series - he definitely has talent for it. Screenwriters too, I am surprised by all the changes from the source material. At this point i won't even call this an adaptation because it was inspiration at most.
In Episode Two, my brain suffered a dignified short-circuit. An unconscious body delivered to an actual hospital rather than the Male Lead’s suspicious large bed? Common sense in a BL drama? Unthinkable. Until it was revealed that our noble protagonist had elected to transport the comatose soul on a motorbike.. Which restored BL world natural order
Like the idea, but the cast is not for me. Fifa looks like 20 yo, while Hem looks like 40yo divorcee. Was really suprised when i checked the cast real age.
Typical gmmtv BL - nothing special, it just have this feel of paying bills and not having passion for the project from the Director. Joss and Gawin give me a nice surprise at least.
Give up on 3 episodes - its one of those shows where MC ( he is alien so at least we have some explanation) acts as if he run away from a mental asylum - all 3 episodes 45m each could have been one - and we would not lose any plot point at all. Show definitely not for me, and aimed for middle schoolers from what I can tell from storytelling.
I really like the realistic vibe and the way it shows what kind of power social media has in everyday life. Its probably the best use of social media I've seen in BL ever. Really like Bua and Baabin, but Fou4Mod? Not so much. He literally make everyone around him miserable - in all 7 episodes, I don't think his presence made any positive difference. You can see it in Bua , Baabin, and others - the further away they are from him, the happier they are. Chain is not much better but he have some positive sides to him the longer we get to know him. Chain and Fou4Mod is like saying - misery love company that come to life. So after episode 4, I was rooting for Chain and Fou4Mod to end up together, only to spare the rest from their company.
Just finished it and it's a good mystery drama. But they introduced the doctor and the congresswoman too soon, so we as viewers get too much additional information compared to the main character. It would be beneficial if we gathered information at the same time as the protagonist. While I really didn't like Gyeom storyline. Couldn't they just give MC one decent human ? While true predators are given screen time to showcase their human decency.
Plotwise - messy. Plolthole or bad writing no idea. At episode 2 or 3 i was pretty sure the alternative universe plot was a scam, and we are dealing with a stalker. While all scenes from the alternative timeline were Cirrus imagination of what if. That was also show conclusion. But it don't explain why Cirrus have scar in the alternative self and in this universe he doesn't, like is freaking disappearing the moment he switches and Phu is aware of that. So not sure how he could get behind a simple stalker plotline where his BF have magical scar...
He is a good director when his heart is on it. UWMA and My Only 12% are very well directed. I think this kind…
He have 3 show to do from 2025 lineup , backlog from last one, additionally one waiting for Domundi and who know what else he himself for Wabi-Sabi is cooking. He is stretching himself to thin to give any show his heart
Honestly I don't want a second season.....why ? Because it's going to be fucked up I know that !!! They'll probably…
If they follow soup opera rules... its should be Joker who was saved by some hot man who he gets into relationship into during his memory loss. So even when he gets his memory back he will feel like he can't break up because he have debt of gratitude... With that as main setting they can stir a lot of drama
No idea how you even found this comment after 3 years but YES - MEDICORE. They both improved a lot in acting department over the last 3 years - especially SEA. But smart camerawork and editing of Director X or Aof can't totally cover their stiffness. Just watch when they are paired with girls and you will notice notable difference.
Another of these typical university love dramas were protogonist is so cringy you start to think his love affair is some kind of divine punishment for male lead.
This show have terrible pacing, on minute 26 of show our lead get drunk - hauling his ass to room is takes more than 2 minutes of show. Then wiping him down, changing clothes ( because that what you do to total stranger you just meet) and then falling asleep on sofa in the room last till minute 42... I watch it on speed 2x and it still feel super slow
