How is she a mediocre talent nepo baby?? You must not know her talent has been since the early 90s...Do you even…
lol What a tool.
The lame "you can't criticize a professional actor unless you are a BETTER professional actor" BS is hilarious.
Bae Doona is homely, always has been, has one sour expression in all her movies, and can't act her way out of a paper bag. The only reason she is in the biz is her family and her family's professional connections. We have lots of these same nepo baby types in Hollywood. It's an old story.
This hollymoviehd.cc is a site I stumbled across only recently, and it's great. It has had almost every Asian film I have searched for there, all with subs and a good picture.
Another one I've been frequenting is onetouchtv.xyz Between the two sites, I've found a lot of films that have been on my PTW list for as long as three years. Let me know if there's anything else you haven't been able to find that you'd like to.
I didn't understand the ending, why he killed him, he just help him from getting in trouble, I feel like the main…
I just now saw this comment. I'll have to rewatch it to remember. I watch so many films that precise recall can leave my tiny mind pretty quickly. However, given the 9.5 rating I gave this , it's something I don't mind doing. I'll get back to you afterwards.
I gave it the same rating. The problem is that the filmmaker wasted time on things like a boy brushing his teeth…
Concise and eye-opening, as per usual. :)
I love that you provide context regarding genre and schools/periods/types of film-making that I otherwise lack the knowledge/words to describe. Thus, I come up with "frustrating and cliche." :D

Kiss my a*s. You must not know what you're talking about. Either that, or you're some poorly-paid underling from her PR dept. trying to shut down anyone who dares to speak truth about her.
Doona has "always been a familiar face, blah blah blah" because she's a nepo baby who got into the business through connections, not talent. She's not beautiful whatsoever. Look at those droopy nostrils and tiny, sour, drooping lips. ugh. Beautiful? Please.
I have seen five or six of Doona's lame flicks and I'm sick of her. See that expression on her homely face in the above photo? That is the expression she wears most of the time in ALL her work. She's not the least bit versatile, seeming to drag the same characterization with her from film to film. Her lack of acting talent reminds me of IU, who also wears the same blank expression in all her work, but at least IU is pretty.
Be sure to include my reply in your summary to your boss at Doona's PR dept. so they'll know your lame retort was entirely ineffectual.
Please get a life. lol (What a lame, dorky finishing line.)
This show is exceeding my hopes with every new episode. It feels like a privilege to be watching three different BLs in which the magic moments of self-realization and emerging love between the MCs are so beautifully portrayed, with complete commitment by the actors, that they bring me to tears.
The other two shows are "See Your Love," out of Taiwan; and "Blue Canvas of Youthful Days" out of China, which I just finished. The latter had some major problems, the largest one being the distracting/useless side couple, but the relationship between the MC was well-acted and thus touching.
It's Miseinen that's captivating me though, because almost all supporting actors are doing a fine job, and the writing is exceptional. The slow but steady development of the MC relationship has been believable and real; and Haruki's personal struggles are deeply touching but not maudlin or melodramatic. I like Haruki a lot. He has lived under such extreme pressures and been unfairly treated over and over, yet his inner, better angels yearn to be free. Minase is turning the key.
How many "let's play in the sea" have we seen through the years in each and every BL (yes, Thailand, I'm mostly…
Wow...I thought exactly the same thing when it happened. It's such a cliche but the fine acting of the MLs made the sea-splash seem spontaneous and real. I think I started to roll my eyes and then stopped and melted. :)
It helped that the bit with first Haruki and then Minase splashing their own heads was a new-ish thing. It was as though Haruki was baptizing himself, washing himself clean of his past, poor self-image and deeds, inspired to do so by Minase's affection.
Also, I loved how, after Haruki pulled them both into the water, Minase kept looking at him with that excited, expectant face, waiting for him to say what was on his mind. He knew something important was happening, but he didn't demand to know, he just waited with an encouraging, happy look on his face, for Haruki to share it with him.
Naturally, that depends on the quality of your performance in said vids, as well as the boundary-pushing nature of the acts portrayed. I have high standards and many years of experience consuming such material, so I know good work when I see it.
Let me know if you need an email address for submission.
Oh look, another posthumously-released film/drama/album/whatever from a performer killed by the Korean Fan/Netizen/Media/Public/Law Enforcement Suicide Machine. What a surprise.
In nine days we mark the seventh anniversary of the 2024 suicide of Kim Jonghyun, the greatest Kpop singer of all time. A new, posthumously released album followed in January. In 18 days we mark the first anniversary of the suicide of one of Korea's greatest actors, Lee Sun Kyun. Several films have been released posthumously. It's a Korean tradition.
Oh my gosh! I had no idea SJR passed away. I loved him in Moon Embracing the Sun, Surplus Princess, Thumping Spike…
He did not "pass away." He deliberately and intentionally killed himself to escape the insanely torturous life of being a Korean actor/celebrity. A mad stalker was hounding him and the Korean scum media was about to pounce. He made a quick exit.

She sucks. So do you.
On the up side, I find actor Huang Xiao Ming "insanely" hot. Talented too.
6.5/10
In case you haven't already finished "Hopeless," it too is on the same site:

Strange film. Most felt first-rate and professional, but major segments were tv drama quality. Acting was spotty, but mostly good.
The sex stuff and the organ stuff were not melded well into one narrative. Most of the former segments felt patched in from some other film.
Tough content but handled well.
6.5/10
"spend less time on here and unplug..."
And yet here YOU are...
I got bored with the other two.
lol When I read "...where Haruki wet himself at school..." I thought "Haruki wet his pants at school? wtf?" :D

Good job, Korea! Keep it up. Fighting!
Good job, Korea!
