The end makes all the pain worth it!
I dropped this drama after 1 or 2 episodes, the guy protagonist kind of annoyed me and it felt a little slow moving. For some reason (I think I just wanted it gone from my Netflix "Continue Watching" queue, I picked it back up. Long story short, the end is so so so worth it. The beginning is kind of grueling and put you through a lot, but the end is so sweet and the guy protagonist gets a bit of what he deserves at the end hehe (#newfirstlove), so I'd give it a strong 8.75. If you can wait until the end I recommend!!Was this review helpful to you?
That was hot...and informative
A very compassionate and sexy introduction to BDSM + a cute love story. Time flies when you're having fun they say, and it very much did as I watched Love and Leashes. Hot actors for a hot story and it even had time to add in some valuable lessons in self love and self acceptance. Plenty of steam but there's also moments that are touching, cruel, and sweet. A quite refreshing love story, and we love when a both the man and woman can take the lead (you'll see what I mean at the end). You might want to have headphones for some scenes but otherwise, WATCH IT NOW...or else ;)Was this review helpful to you?
A drama that demands an obsessive watch
this drama did something to me that no drama ever has...it made me feel things and think about it over and over after I completed watching. It's a drama that even months after watching, I find myself coming back to and looking at different scenes for the feels they give. Outside of my personal love for WHIB, for starters, it is M E S S Y from start to finish, but in a way that compels you to keep watching. You're not ready for what it'll do to you.In any case, let's get to a review, I'm a sucker for a male lead that gives the female lead very big "you're mine" energy. This drama has the epitome of that. If you want to see a man actually go crazy over a woman this is truly the drama for you. The passion from the male lead had me in a grip. Before you (or he) even know it, he's deeply in love (obsessed, fated, ???) with the female lead. And yet somehow makes room for a love square whose end cannot be easily predicted (although after watching for a bit, my gut starting telling me what direction things were heading...I hope you watch and see if you get similar premonitions...). I want to say it's a beautiful story, but honestly it is nice. It has very well considered sentiments that include, finding what's truly important in one's life, the pain of being too rich and the pain of being too poor, and the heart wanting what it wants. I could truly talk about this drama for ages (like formal, if you watch and wanna talk PLEASE message me) but I highly recommend you watch and see how it treats you.
Story: Interesting and not predictable, a bit dark and some moments are a little dated makes beautiful commentaries on society
Acting: Major shoutout to Jo In Sung because he did his f*cking thing with his acting in this O M G!!! Even still, the cast all had strong acting did well together- everyone made you believe they were the characters they portrayed.
Music: OST is a littleeeee repetitive but in my opinion the songs capture the emotions of scenes perfectly
Rewatch Value: hard to say, I've found myself watching the nice moments between the two leads quite often, but as a whole, potentially a little too depressing to rewatch
Thanks for reading <3 Happy (or in this case, not so happy) watching!
