I kinda agree.

Lmao glad to know that I'm not the only one who is secretly shipping them. It would be amazing if K is a real person indeed but I highly doubt it since he appears in front of others but they don't see him and only see Soo Yeol.

Then you can check it out if you want. Like on YouTube people even say that it should be the blueprint of teen dramas or whatever so I guess I have no choice but to check it out lol

Exactly! Glad to know they are happy and thank you! I really love Qiling's character and Xiao Yuliang was the best at playing the role in my opinion. Even his looks is perfect for the character. I'm also a big fan of The Lost Tomb series.

Well, I'm used to Japanese plots being slow, deep and whatever since at this point I finished more than 150 Japanese movies and 50 dramas so I have good experience when it comes to their way of telling stories, filming and all that but god damn this movie was boring as fuck! It totally didn't need to be more than two hours long. I get the plot is supposed to be meaningful and dark but after finishing 30 minutes, I literally stopped caring about what was going on. I only finished it cause I wanted to know the "big secret" of that Hiasa dude and worried that skipping straight to the end would make me unable to understand the ending well yet I still couldn't understand jack shit. I hated how they would waste minutes on random scenery like flowers, waterfalls...etc when the plot was already slow and boring to death.
Also Konno gave me depression, he was such a dull, gloomy ass character like damn! Yeah gloomy characters can be interesting at times but in his case, he was unbearable. Hiasa wasn't as interesting and cool as I expected him to be. He was kinda creepy in the beginning of the movie and became dull as well afterwards. To cut it short, I didn't 100% hate the movie but it was one of worst in my list. The festival scene at the end was great though, I loved it. They should delete the BL tag by the way since there was no BL in this movie to begin with, like where is the BL???

Same here!

I don't only watch BL stuff, especially when it comes to anime, I watch all genres even straight romance, ecchi, harem and hentai sometimes if they got a decent plot. My top anime genres are actually fantasy, music, historical, horror, adventure, comedy, yaoi and sports. I do dig slice of life as well.
For dramas and movies I prefer BL, historical, thriller, psychology, comedy and crime.
I did hear of a Swedish (I guess it's Swedish?) BL drama called Young Royals and everyone praises it so I guess I might check it out.

I guess I will check it out but probably wouldn't really get hooked, the thing is, American shows have a certain vibe, way of telling stories and stereotypes that I can't enjoy at all. Idk how to describe it but even if the show is actually good with decent plot, I still can't bring myself to watch more than 10 episodes maximum and I will switch back to an Asian drama or an anime. I did highly enjoy some western animation though like Totally Spies, Martin Mystery, galactic football, Monster High, Ever After High, Grove High, Slugterra, Winx Club, W.I.T.C.H, Gumball, The Simpsons...etc They made some really good animation. But I still prefer watching anime though lol

You can recommend as much as you want. Watching stuff is my favorite hobby and basically one of the few things I can do for fun in my shit country. It also helps distract my mind from non cheerful thoughts. I will check everything you recommend.

That's the point. Most people watch dramas, anime and play games cause all these things allow us to discover new worlds, see something different and in games case be whatever we want since we can control how our characters look like and what they do. In fiction world everything is possible and colorful unlike depressing and boring reality. That's why odd plots are addictive.

Yeah I admit most Korean and Chinese romance dramas tend to be draggy, repetitive, boring and cringe as hell. That's why I try my best to avoid them lately. I never bothered with American shows that much, I have zero interest in them. Only American shows I watched few episodes of were Supernatural, Friends, How I Met Your Mother and How To Get Away With Murder and that's it.
At least Thai dramas aren't that long and they create BL stuff all the time which I appreciate. They are also not worried about making steamy scenes which gives mature vibe even in non that mature plots.

Well this is a bit dark (For some people it's awfully dark but for me it's not really that dark. Basically the only kinda startling scene was the overly cruel and violent one that happened after 50 minutes. I never seen something like that before. People who already watched the movie will know which one I mean. Apart from that, everything else was meh). I kinda wish it explored the prostitution / host world more along with the reasons which lead people to do these kind of jobs and the whole psychological and physical trauma they might have to deal with afterwards. I think I expected the plot to be more deep and meaningful than just a bunch of dudes fucking every 3 minutes. Sex scenes were repetitive and not really that amazing nor believable honestly.
Also the ML was so bland and boring I barely cared about him. Even the teacher was more interesting. Like I still don't get what made the ML become a host and whatever happened afterwards. The romance wasn't that believable as well. Overall the plot, characters and sex scenes were weak as heck.

Got it, I will check them out and yeah I do know that many famous Japanese actors got well known thanks to the Kamen Rider franchise. They are obviously very popular in Japan since there are about 20+ movies out there lol
Fun fact I didn't watch NiF yet, I watched 2 episodes and almost fell sleep during it so I ended up turning my attention to other dramas. I keep thinking about watching another 2 or 3 episodes but I always find new dramas that catch my interest too much I end forgetting about it again.
About Re:Follow, not all the time the plot need to be flawless. I did watch many dramas / animes with messy, silly or hard to understand plots but for some reason I was addicted and I highly enjoyed them.

I do consider Bad Buddy as one of the best Thai / BL dramas out there actually but personally I'm more into dark plots and genres like Psychology, thriller, horror, crime. I already watched more than 30 Thai dramas which focus mostly on humor and fluff so having a change makes me pleased. Besides since I already graduated from college, I kind off got sick of the typical high school / college focused cute romance stories. I like adult revolved plots the most now cause as an adult I can relate to them more.

I understand, same here. Sometimes when I'm really depressed I also prefer to watch something humorous and a bit silly to lift my mood but I overall enjoy serious / dark plots way more.

Thank you!

I'm glad that mature, dark and serious plots are becoming a thing in Thailand. Manner of Death, The Stranded, KinnPorsche, Not Me, Long Khong, The Effect and now this drama. I prefer these types of plots way more than the typical cringe, comedic ones.

From which drama is your profile picture?

Just watch it on YouTube for free, the first episode is already out with subs (Just divided into multiple videos). Here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKoQVR3OT_w if it's airing in my shit country then it should in yours too.

I have a list for dramas and a list for movies which include all stuff I watched (the ones which I already rated) and ones I'm planning to watch (ones without my rating or haven't aired / finished airing yet). You can check them out if you want.
I didn't watch the Rise of Phoenixes and Ashite Tatte Himitsu Wa Aru ones yet. I did hear of the Japanese one but didn't think about watching it and didn't hear about the phoenixes one. Kamen Rider is supposed to be like Power Rangers, right? I did enjoy watching Power Rangers every now and then back when I was a kid but I don't think I can watch similar stuff now lmao
I might also check the Re: Follower one.
