If Netflix can't cast anyone with a past like that, they would never cast anyone. Every country k-lled millions…
The more you write, the dumber you seem. Anyone who can't spell out the word "kill" or "killing" is not to be taken seriously. Let me guess, you spell sex as "s-x," rape as "r-pe," etc, correct?
lol Do you spell "yell" and "yelling" as y-ll and y_lling, to protect the fee-fees of people who have been yelled at?

"Involved in any war..." You seem to be making no distinction between aggressors and victims. Surely you're not that dense...but maybe you are. Do you equate Ukraine's "involvement" in the current war with that of Russia in the same conflict?
Likely the best Filipino, gay short film I've seen. Naturalistic, believable acting from both leads. If the version I saw had subtitles, it would have helped to tie the story and the song together for me. Oh well...
For two men 20 years apart in age, the chemistry was right there from the beginning, even though things started out rough. Age gap relationships can work, but the massive changes in technology we've seen over the last 25 years can put a lot of strain on things, as we see in this story.
This.Oh, you asked "why."For clicks, that's why.I hate that I had to give Lily Alice, the MDL Trash Article…
Lily Alice doesn't "write" in the sense that most people think of it. She lazily slaps her name at the top of some pre-written piece of trash from Dispatch, or chops together parts of four or five articles from equally bogus sources in a blender, and slaps her name on whatever oozes out at the end.
Lily is what is known in the journalistic world as a "hack."
I respect the struggle and hardship the people of South Korea especially women have gone through in the hands…
Correct. The historical past absolutely must be remembered for the lessons it teaches. But choosing to live the present in one's anger and resentment is an unhealthy choice, especially after 80 years have passed.
You make a great point about Korea's willingness to interact with Japan in so many other ways that benefit it financially. Yes, somehow, when one JP actor is cast in a freaking drama, it's a bridge too far. There was nothing wrong with what he said about his grandfather. It was not the time or place for a history lecture.
I live in the US. My dad fought in WW2 and spent 18 months in a German POW camp. Given the traitorous attack on Pearl Harbor, the atrocities committed against American POWs held by Japan, and a hundred other realities of that brutal war, America had plenty cause to treat JP with vengeance and hatred after it surrendered. It is true vengeance was wreaked in the firebombings of 67 JP cities and the incineration of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Which JP enabled by its refusal to surrender.
However, I am talking about AFTER the war, when the US occupied Japan and could have chosen to impose harsh, retaliatory conditions on JP and its people. Hell, the Allies could have broken up Japan into smaller political entitities to make it less dangerous, had they chosen to. Instead, the US generally treated JP ex-military and civilians with decency, investing billions of dollars to set JP up as the powerful, economic powerhouse and democracy it is today. Both sides benefit from that approach.
Korea would do well to never forget the past, but learn to pick and choose its battles in dealing with Japan. Boycotting some drama over a sentence not quite properly worded by the grandchild of a JP soldier, is absurd. Grow up.
Though the film tried my patience with unnecessarily long scenes and others that seemed pointless, I got more out of it and enjoyed it more on second watch.
Dreadful. Terrible. Boring. The last third, where all the sex is located, was apparently meant as an anti-Japanese political/military statement, lol. Whatever the message, it came off as both ham-handed and lame. It's difficult to take such lofty propaganda seriously when fake cum is spraying in the face of one of the MCs.
Likewise, the pouting and general disgust expressed by the MCs at that point struck me as silly, given what they had agreed to and were there to do. Also, the male lead certainly took to butt sex easily, given that his character had never had it before. :)
Finally, it's interesting that so many young, male Pinoy actors don't bother to get into decent physical shape before filming movies that require extensive nudity, as does this one. I often see Fillipino actors who are slim, but also jiggly and lacking tone. Strange to see cellulite and stretch marks on a young guy's butt. I'm not talking about getting gym-built for every role, I find that look annoying and superficial. I'm talking about a basic, casually athletic look that I'd expect a young man like this one to have.
That's a little much. They're second-years in HS which makes them like 16 or 17? First-time in love and with the…
As an adult, you should know better.
Wait, you've never been a teen boy, or obviously, bothered to educate yourself about the sex drive and emotional/hormonal state of teen boys. Thus, you have no idea what you're talking about.
Fluff-Munching Little Girl BL fans come in all ages, sexes, and ethnicities. It's a state of mind.
Too bad, because some of the actors are attractive.
Dropped at 29:00.

Quite possibly, the worst BL ever made outside Thailand.

Got lots of money.

Glad to know my comment hit a nerve.
