It tests your patience lol

I'll start with, I do love the ending. It has a lovely closure for everyone and ever element involved. But, the execution could be better. It feel really rushed in last 3 episodes or so. So, its not pleasant to watch towards the end,. The only saving grace is the good ending, otherwise, I'd be real pissed lol

It started out really great until it starts testing your patience. I mean, EVERYONE knows they like each other, but they don't?! Oh, cmon! lol...If only they stop dragging the confession, the last 3 episodes wouldn't have been rushed, then it'd be a nicer drama from audience pov.

Otherwise, I love both the ML, and both of them is hot af! Like, face, body, and everything. They are my favorite shipped couple now. Also, this is one of BLs where they finally cast all handsome male actors together. Honestly it shouldnt be that hard right? If other drams could put more effort in this, it'd be nicer for our eyes lol

Now, is this show perfect? No.

But, it isn't as bad as what everyone makes it out to be either.

I hope to see this couple again, but probably in a better drama next time

New Take On Kdrama

I was immediately intrigued by the poster and boy, it delivered!

If you're Kdrama fans like me, you probably have watched way too many of cliche Kdrama that sometimes, we could use a break with something different.

This show is perfect for that! It's interesting topic and new flavor to Kdrama basically.

Also, it is interesting to learn more about neuroscience (although its not entirely 100% based on facts), but its just cute little moments that made the show funny yet thrilling

Definitely love the FL here, her transformation is savage!

Give it a try, and you might just love it!

Villain of the year!!!

Now, I don't think Dong Soo even deserve this title. He is a monster, not even a villain! While catching monster, he became the biggest monster of all. Ugh, it's frustrating, although I'm not surprised since he does have the most evil look among them lol..

I'm not happy with the ending. I'm disappointed that the storyline had his brother asked Dong Soo to let go when he died instead of asking him to turn himself in. SO unfair ending.

Now, I understand the story is as such that Dong Soo turned evil because of his circumstances, bla bla.. But, it's a fact that he has a choice. He chose to be evil, and for that, there's no excuse of any of his behaviors.

I want a Season 2 just to watch Han Dong Soo put into justice.!!!

I'd rather Dong Soo died instead of Seo Do Young.

He is the one who I believe deserve the villain of the year!!! At least, Seo Do Young is consistent in his evilness. He has boundary such as not to mess with police. While he's on alert, he hasn't been plotting to betray Dong Soo, until he had to. That, he has my respect. Plus, he is the MOST CHARMING VILLAIN of the year!

I mean, that jacket and baggy trouser and sandal, boy, only he can carry it (that's the only jacket he wear for first 5 episodes lol)

Oh mo, I'm SO impressed by his acting. From his built, his gaze, his look, his walk, his talk, he is the gangsta of the year. I want another series just featuring him as sexy mafia head!

And our poor baby Agi...the brother who get caught in the war of villains. My heart breaks for him everytime he is in pain. His acting also impressed me a lot. There was even a scene where his voice shook so much when he cried. He is SOOO good and he has grown so much in his acting since I last saw him on Taxi Driver.

This is how thriller should be done guys. Rarely, we have 3 great actors put into one show, this is top notch!

It nailed it in casting, acting, pacing, timing, storyline, plot. everything, EXCEPT the ending

Still, it keeps me entertained throughout, worth a watch!

Alien + Time Travel = Why not?

I really love this one- it's so much better than the 1st part, although we kinda need the 1st part to build up to where we are.

This one is more lighthearted, funny, action packed and faster pacing. I love the combination of sorcery and science, past and future, young and old, and everything in between

More than one plot twists and its real good. It's also touching in the end, got me in tears.

I love the casts too- like everyone of them did really well and play very important part

I become a fan of Kim Woo Bin after this too! Highly recommend part 2!

A good "filler" show

Teacher-student story has been around for a long time, but it might be my 1st time watching it in BL and I kinda love it.

I mean the age gap isn't that big and it's not like they do anything "saucy" during those times together. I wouldn't say much to avoid spoilers. Let's say, it isn't as bad as comments section make it out to be. the comments section make it sound like an 18 yo got raped by 70 yo, not even close! LOL.

Anyway, this show isn't really for binge-ing. It's a great episode fo filler when you want sth lighthearted, good laugh and times when you don't want to think or cry or get angry over show

It has a Jap manga vibes, in terms of exaggerated acting and expressions. So, the vibes are different from the typical Jdrama romance. That's why lots of people say they don't feel the chemistry, but I feel it's more of the style of the drama. It isn't designed to be those romantic kind. Although, of course having a better chemistry would definitely help.

I personally feel it's cute to watch, nothing much to expect. Honestly, I watch it because I run out of show to watch, but it's good enough that I don't drop it.

Beautiful Hidden Message

I first chanced upon similar concept of entering a game in "Memories of the Alhambra" which I totally dropped due to the intensity. So, I'm SOOO glad that we have KBL version of similar concept of sort.

I really love their chemistry, they are such a sweet couple, especially the innocence of Yeo Woon. In meanwhile, Myung Ha' voice brings so much calming and assuring effect, I can listen to him talk all day long.

As usual from Korean show (BL or not), 1st 2 episodes are a bit slow and once it picks up, it's really engaging!

I love the hidden message about self-love towards the end, where it's indirectly teaching us to love ourselves first before making others happy, which is an important message. Often times, people misunderstand meaning of love because of how it is depicted as needing to sacrifice for others, etc in typical drama. So, it's beautiful to watch this KBL takes a lead in this.

Plus, I'm happy to see Geon Han entering BL scenes, showing more people are open to BL!

Overall, I love this show a lot, esp the couples. I really want seaso 2, or special, just to see this couple having their lovey dovey moments pls!

Darker than it looks

Gist, it's more twisted than the poster made it out to be, but it gets you clicking "next" regardless. Also, it's my bad for not reading the tag properly. It does have "slight horror" tagged on it lol

The acting is top notch, crazy action-packed adventured filled with plot twists. It's SO good! If you're looking for a thrill, you're in for a ride!

The only thing that bothered me is how the father turned out in the end. I am not a fan of the father taking revenge because he lost the bigger perspective of life. While chasing for murderer, he is losing the only family he is left with now. I mean...what if the son ends up having a murderer as a father? That is even more cruel than what had already happened.

For that reason, I really get quite disappointed towards the end, despite the murderer being a real psycho.

Also, if you're not into dark story, you could skip the parts where the murderer is retelling his story. After this storytelling, the action gets real good. I didn't regret watching it, I just wished I had skipped those dark story, because it's not really necessary to understand the whole drama.

Overall, I think the show is very well done and is probably the best thriller I've watched in terms of the excitement it gives you, though not necessarily my personal favorite for the reason above (about the father)

Watch it and judge it for yourself!

It carries so much depth, meaning & joy!

He is a true embodiment of what it means by "When you shine your light, you allow others to shine theirs too"

I love to see more dramas with such a unique profession. I actually enjoyed the animal knowledge shared here in a fun way. I mean we have enough of police, lawyer or doctor in drama, lol. His profession alone makes it a very interesting watch!

I enjoy watching Aikawa at every moment because his eyes is sparkling with awe, wonder, curiosity, passion and beaming with light. l also love the way this character is portrayed.

Although he is in a way weird, but he still has EQ in the sense that he does know when someone is upset, and the fact he is direct, means he speak up and clear stuff up. He probably has way better communication skills than other "normal" people who just assumed things! Also, he is sensitive and smart and pick up lots of things.

What I love the most is how he inspires and imparts wisdom to people around him without trying hard. He is simply being himself, and letting his light becomes bigger and it ripples!

My favorite part is when he explained why we are made out of miracles, nicely putting a wrap to the show. Plus, I never think of it that way, so he totally shows me a new paradigm there!

Oh, my heart is so full and my soul so nourished after watching him. Plus, he challenges me to think big too! I mean, this dude goes to space (which I totally would love S2 on that, thou unlikely)

The only thing is the FL is hard to watch, esp at 1st few episodes, I almost dropped the show because of her but glad I stayed on. Thanks God she got better towards the end

I love how each cast is given their final "ending", giving them the spotlight and let the show wraps up in very holistic way

This drama carries so much depth, meaning & joy!

BL or not, it's a fricking gd show!

This is one of the best BL I've watched. Well, kinda implied BL. If you're expecting kisses and all, there's none. But, if you're expecting chemistry and love, I'm pretty sure it's there. In fact, its probably even the healthiest kind of love here!

I love this show a lot, especially after watching so many school setting BL lol. It's nice to watch sth that's thrilling with some actions. Also,the storyline is pretty good. It kinda keeps me guessting till the end

Its easy watch, no drag.

I really love the 2 MLs and I'd be lying to say I want some kisses here and tehre or more...or at least a hug, coz they are so clearly in love!

Overall, enjoyable and refreshing watch. and SHiro is SO sexy, I died.

11/10 kinda good!

I can't believe I put this off for so long. This is like 11/10 kinda good!

Oh my, there are parts where it hurts like mad, but it's overalll really sweet, romantic and cute

I love the acting, especially the actor who plays Risei. Even when he cries, I can feel it. It's not forced or fake.

Really good acting, this is why I appreciate Jap BL.

I still dunno why its called Jack O frost though. I know he draw Jack in the drama, but thats the only reference. I don't see a linked/context to it? Am I missing sth? lol

Anyway the drama....It's short, so its not draggy. It ends beautifully as a show, I won't ask for more. Sometimes, what makes a great series is exactly knowing when to end too!

Except that I do want more, like special episode just because I love the couple so much!

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL

Oh my, the movie is the highlight of the entire series! Finally, the toxicity from the previous seasons are dissolved

The acting is good too, despite it being Kiyou's earlier works. We don't get those cringey moments where you get exactly only one expression for entire show. Yes, if you watch enough BL, you'll know what im talking about haha

Blessed us that we have great visuals, good acting and sparkling chemistry here.

really enjoy the show!

We have 2 mature men, loving, supporting and growing together in their imperfect perfect love

Kiyou is really the beautiful man, omg. It fits the title so well. I love their chemistry and their bond. The intimate scenes get better too, I can feel they really desire each other.

Also, love seeing how they are both pursuing their dreams and a beautul life awaiting our beautiful men

As much as I would love to see them more, I feel this movie is such a great wrap that it's perfect as it is

I wouldn't mind a special episode thou, say....a wedding episode or sth? :P

Healing show!

the first 2 episodes might seem blant or slow, but once it took off, it is really good.

I am happy that Yul not only rekindled his passion, he found new love and most importantly, found back himself.

It's a lighthearted, heartwarming yet meaningful show. It carries room for reflection and lessons for our daily life

I also love the village setting where it's a community style living, we can use reminder to care a little more about people around us. It's also healing just looking at the scenery

Overall, it's way better than I thought, even better than some of the more popular BL.

It seriously deserves more hype! Not to mention Chan is SO funny, a perfect himbo to add some fun to the show! I also love the song in the ending!

SEASON 2 PLEASE!!!

This is SO good, deserves way more limelight!!! Since I am timid, I mostly skip fantasy show as it is usually scary for me. But, this one is surprisingly okay! There is about 5% of scary scenes but that's about it

Finally, get to enjoy this genre without being scared LOL...

It's well-balanced! We need more show like this!

It's funny but deep at same time. Lots of life lessons in each episode and beautiful family and friendships.

While this isn't BL, I feel the bromance has a little bit of the BL vibes, so I am totally enjoying that too..lol

The ending is so well done. Everything is answered and wrapped up nicely.

Most importantly, it doesn't drag!!! Initially, I wished that it has more episodes, but after I finished watching, I am happy at how it ends. The only thing is I wish there is second season coz I want MORE!!!!

Really Entertaining!!

I really love it! It's entertaining right from the start till the end. It's lighthearted and fun with great comedy, yet it brings a story of redemption towards the end. very well done.

How the ML got fired might sound a bit exaggerating, because I was shocked myself, but I'm thinking there might be some subtitle or subtext lost in translation. More importantly, it's the message they try to bring across about message on how women should not be objectified. It also has other social issues being touched on really nicely.

Very well rounded show with great entertainment value and meaningful message!
