It's over. It's over. It's over. Ah... I just repeated that after watching the final episode. But in fact I didn't want it to be over. Right from the first second of the first episode I was interested and intrigued, and there was never a boring part of this drama. The story drew me in and kept me interested and the casting was brilliant. The relationship between all the characters was unique and special, especially the relationship between the two brothers. I loved everything about this drama, apart from 1 thing. I just wish it was longer! Maybe 20 episodes? Although, I'm not too bothered and the ending was brilliant just like the beginning was. I will definitely be rewatching this drama and it has become my favourite drama of all times! The chemistry between Seo In Guk & Jang Na-Ra was written beautifully and I hope to see them in a future drama together again! I also feel like this drama has given Park Bo Gum a time to shine, and I will definitely be watching him in the near future! It may be obvious but if I had to reccommend a drama to anyone, it would definitely be this drama!

I absolutely loved this drama and would definitely recommend it to anyone! I started watching this drama expecting it to be a comedy, and even though it was a comedy, it also had serious storylines to it which was shocking yet amazing! This drama has a very good balance of comedy, drama, romance and friendship!

The acting and casting was brilliant and I will definitely be watching more dramas with Lee Seunggi in! The chemistry between all the cast was definitely beautiful! The acting was very good and I enjoyed all the cast!

I also loved the music to this drama and I will definitely rewatch this again! I just wished there was more episodes! :)

I was so excited to watch this drama and I started watching as each episode came out. I thought the plot was really good and the episodes were all exciting to watch and I couldn't wait for the week after to watch the next episode. However, half way into the drama, it started to drag. It started to drag and I got quite bored but I decided to carry on watching till the end and I was right. It did drag and the storyline went off the scale and it wasn't what I expected. I would have preferred a shorter drama (maybe 16 episodes) with a better planned out plot.

However! The casting was brilliant and the music I completely loved. Aaron Yan and Tia were brilliant as leads and they acted their characters well. I just wish this drama was better thought out and the plot started to confuse me slightly.

One thing I would say to anyone who is thinking of watching this drama - 'Prepare for a rollercoaster of emotions', because this drama sure made a mix of emotions. In some parts I was angry, others happy, and some more I was sad. I decided to watch this drama after reading the plot and also Park Min Young is my favourite actress. Also, I had never seen a drama with Yoo Seung Ho in and boy! Now I am going to hunt through all of his past dramas and watch them all!

Story: The story wasn't written, it was crafted. And it was crafted beautifully. The staff of this drama did a fantastic job and it was everything which I had expected plus more. A large part of this drama actually gave me goosebumps. It was so beautiful and I was even on the edge of my seat in parts. It is a beautiful but sad story and it was made perfectly. The only bad thing I have to say is I wish there was slightly more romance involved but with such a crafted storyline, they managed to fit a lot of things in 20 episodes so it didn't bother me too much.

Acting: What can I say about the acting in this drama? The acting of this drama was one of the best I have seen in a while. Yoo Seung Ho and Park Min Young portrayed their roles perfectly. The chemistry between them and the other characters were also amazing. But I would have to give my award to the villian/bad guy. Nam Goong Min (Nam Gyu Man). When I hear of a villian/bad guy, Nam Goong Min played everything I would expect. He gave me goosebumps and his acting was absolutely amazing (I am sorry poor laptop for me screaming at you during his scenes). I also really enjoyed a lot of the extra characters apart from those who were the leads. That's why I gave the acting 10/10.

Recommend/Rewatch: I would DEFINITELY recommend this drama to anyone who loves dramas with some mystery, romance, thriller and drama. This is the perfect drama for you. Rewatch value... hm. I think I would still have to prepare myself for everything which is going to happen, even though I have already watched it! It was an amazing drama and I enjoyed every single part of it. I really do not think I was bored at any parts of this drama. So watch it! You will DEFINITELY not be disappointed!

I can honestly say I loved every single part of this drama and whilst it was airing, it was the only thing that kept me going until Wednesday and Thursday nights. :)

Prepare your heart

I messed up… I somehow got into my head that this was going to be a light-hearted comedy (yes, I was lucky to not see any spoilers!) but how wrong was I… you definitely need to prepare your heart and feelings for a drama like this. The plot kind of threw me off slightly, I don’t think we saw Young’s love journey through the eyes of Mi Ae, I think we saw his love journey through his own eyes - his trauma, his love and his heartbreak. He really had it all and we had to witness it all. I do think some of his actions weren’t the right actions to take but he really did go through so much. I definitely think the saying of ‘You don’t realise something until it’s gone.’ Is definitely true for Young and the drama. I really loved this drama from start to finish and it’s definitely on the shelf for one of the best Korean BL dramas in my opinion. Yoon Soo did such a great job acting as Young, in fact all of the actors did a good job. Would I like to see a little bit more? Maybe with the two reuniting? Yes. I don’t think it will happen but to keep my mind at peace, it will happen someday.

The greenest of green flags?

I truly loved this drama from start to finish. Out of many BL dramas I’ve watched, I’m sure God is one of the greenest green flags. The way he cares for Diew, the little things, the way he listens, how much he loves him. It’s extremely adorable. This drama just shows that you shouldn’t change the way you are for anyone and there’s someone out there who will love you for who you are. It also shows how people have different ways of caring for people, God likes to show it whereas Diew’s mum seems strict but she genuinely cares for Diew. The second couple is also cute, and I wanted to see more of them. We also got a hint of a third couple… but we didn’t see much of them. I could possibly see this as one of those series which continues but with the other couples (like Until We Meet Again and Between Us).

Being an ISFJ like Diew, I could see the things which made him uncomfortable and reasons he acted that way, so it was nice to be able to connect with the drama too. I just wish he opened up a bit sooner which he definitely started to at the end of the drama.

I’m sad this drama has ended because I enjoyed it so much. God has definitely popped up on my list of green flags and favourite characters, he’s a big fluffy cutie and definitely a golden retriever!! I would definitely recommend this drama!

Also, yes… I am also worried about Khun Shy… please give that turtle a whole entire pond.

good, not great but didn’t regret watching

Before watching this drama, although I never like to read reviews and make up my mind for myself, I did see mixed reviews and ratings without reading them too much. It was my first Tutor and Yim BL after seeing them in Cutie Pie and Naughty Babe (I tried to watch Middleman’s Love but… I just couldn’t…). I genuinely liked this drama! Although the writing was a bit hit and miss sometimes and the storyline was a little confusing, I did enjoy it and I’m in awe by Tutor. Although I was a bit confused at first, when I understood it, my favourite thing about the drama has to be when the 5 writers are all sat together around the table, looking adorable in their pyjamas, animal outfits and their hairs styled cutely. I loved the fact they’re actually just chatting in their chat room but it shows them as sat around the table talking.
I wish the story had a bit more of a rhythm, maybe a bit more leading up to Shan and Oab-aun’s relationship, but I felt like it rushed too much into it and suddenly they were in love and didn’t develop much from then. However, Tutor… TUTOR!! He genuinely distracted me from the episodes a few times, that man is extremely beautiful. And the kissing scenes with him and Yim, I felt like they both put their heart and souls into those kissing scenes, they were amazing! (Tutor ain’t got those lips for nothing! ?) Especially Episode 7! The amount of squeals that I did, I couldn’t. Overall, this drama was good! I felt like the writing could be a little better but I definitely don’t regret watching it and I would recommend it.

Happy times… unhappy times… happy times!

I had so many thoughts and feelings whilst watching Love Mechanics and I still do even after finishing. Some of the characters’ actions were definitely questionable. Vee can be a bit impulsive and not think things through fully but he’s definitely not a bad person at all, if he thought about things, was a bit more honest from the very beginning, I think things would go a lot more smoothly. Mark, honestly at the beginning and kind of throughout, I feel like he sets himself up for heartbreak. But the two of them went through a lot… A LOT… and they learnt to love each other more and respect each other more, would I still worry about the characters in the future? Yes… and because of this, I would LOVE to see a second season of Love Mechanics. We got happy moments but they were soon ruined by bad things that happened. So I want to see more of Vee and Mark having happier moments and memories. Also, Vee’s parents… BL parent goals. His father’s advice, his mother’s support. What a great family! I really loved this drama but I do wish we can have another season of them! Because War and Yin are such GREAT actors!!

Just needs a plot change to make sense!

Just change the plot and it would make more sense! Reading the plot before watching, I thought I knew what the story would be like… but it didn’t follow… I think it makes more sense to change the plot to match the story! Could it be a little better and things to improve it? Yes. But was it bad? Definitely not! I genuinely really enjoyed this drama! The main thing I wished was that we had more background of Uea and King, a bit more information into when they first met and why Uea thinks all those things about King at the beginning. A few more flashbacks of those two would have been nice.

King is such a beautiful kind soul, he genuinely cares for Uea and I’m sure he did from the very beginning, but Uea is a little bit of a closed book, which isn’t surprising with a mother like that and all the trauma he has. It’s clear King had feelings for him since the start, Uea just needed to trust him more and open up to him a bit sooner. I honestly think Uea’s mother is probably the worst mother I’ve ever seen on a BL drama, her character is awful! There was definitely chemistry between them and when that particular music began, you knew they’d be a steamy scene coming!

Also, don’t even get me started on that move King did in episode 1! Doing a 180 turn off the floor and straight onto Uea. What in the magic was that!! I couldn’t believe it, I had to watch it more than once. I’ll definitely be following Net’s next projects for sure!!

Watch to make up your own mind without reading bad reviews!

I definitely believe Sunset x Vibes is one of those BLs which is often rated lower than it should be. And I never tend to follow the reviews or ratings, I like to find out if it’s good or bad myself. I really enjoyed this drama, but yes a few times I did get confused, especially with the dreams that Salin was having, I didn’t quite understand them at first until the end, and I’m not sure I fully did understand them. But it did make me want to see Mos as a merman in a drama in the future!! The chemistry between the two is definitely fully alive! Sunset x Vibes was actually my first MosBank BL, even before Big Dragon which I did go and watch straight afterwards but honestly… out of the two I preferred Sunset x Vibes.

The settings and the visuals were beautiful, and some of the steamy scenes were very… very… steamy indeed. I also loved how they played Dancing With The Devil in a later episode! I liked the second couple too (Pete and Tenon) and I hope they can have their own drama later too. I’m definitely looking forward to watching more BLs with MosBank. I just hope the next one they have, the story makes a little more sense and it can get the review ratings they deserve!

A heartwarming prequel

I came straight from watching Unintentional Love Story to watching The Time Of Fever, literally a day later. Luckily I was late watching Unintentional Love Story so The Time Of Fever was already all out and finished by the time I watched it! I absolutely loved this movie/drama, a movie split into episodes (it’s how I watched it). I knew it was a prequel so I knew it was Donghee and Hotae’s story beforehand, and what a beautiful story it was, with all the emotions combined. I love how they supported each other, Donghee was always there to aid Hotae’s wounds from being hit by girls and how Hotae was there for Donghee after his father. I just wish we could have seen a little more, maybe some more back story of Donghee with his family.

But overall, I really did enjoy this, I was in awe with the visuals, the emotions and the connection between the two characters. But I do wish it wasn’t a movie and it had multiple episodes like Unintentional Love Story, and I really hope in the future there’s another spin off with them in the future and we can get a full story of their future with multiple episodes!

A cute sweet love story

I would say this drama is worth a watch! It’s just a cute sweet love story, although the plot threw me off a little. I was expecting Takara to be a bit meaner and colder at the beginning towards Taishin but actually I didn’t think he was… only a little. It’s a story between two people who are a little unsure and learning how to love each other. Taishin is definitely very innocent even at the end and I would also say Takara is slightly too, they are both learning how to love each other.

I also liked how there was no interruptions from any annoying characters, it was mainly focused on Takara and Taishin’s story, except from the creepy old man.

I actually would have preferred it if there was more episodes, maybe 12 or even 16. I felt like their relationship was beginning to develop but then it ended with 10 episodes. I saw there may be a spin off episode or two, so I’ll definitely be watching that!

Deep, dark and emotional

This drama was truly heartbreaking and powerful at the same time. I would definitely give a trigger warning to it but if you can watch dark and deep BL dramas like this one, I definitely recommend it. Everything that Chihiro and Haoren went through, especially Haoren made me just want to scoop them up and give them such a big hug. This drama was so powerful and the feelings I felt whilst watching it. Two people who have been through so much, find each other and realise there’s a possibility they can be happy in the end, but it’s going to be a long and tough journey to get there first. All the emotions in the drama, it definitely hit me at the end. The actors did an amazing job of portraying their characters. Would I have liked to see more of their happiness at the end? Probably. But was I satisfied by the ending? Yes. This drama will definitely be one I’ll remember for sure.
