I love the original so much and I rewatched it just long enough ago so that I can't remember the order of everything that happens, so that means I wont constantly be comparing the 2 versions when this kdrama is released, but if summer doesn't hurry up I'm going to break and end up rewatching the OG version! It's not my fault that Greg Hsu is the best ML ever in this role(s) and Alice Ke and his chemistry is just insane and their love story in this is...! If JYB and AHS have even a fraction of what they did this will be a seriously special kdrama.
so many people didn’t like this, but personally it’s in my top 5 BLs ever - it’s just got the best characters - they’re all so interesting and different and real. I can’t wait to see them come back! we hardly ever get second seasons for Japanese BLs but we got one for my favourite! I’m so happy!
My dream of seeing Jang Dong Yoon and Nana playing a couple is sadly diminishing... this probably isn't happening - JDY has a couple dramas coming up- one of them is even a romcom
JCY isn't always my favourite, but hopefully in this she'll be good - of course HIY will be great. Still hoping one day he'll be in a drama starring opposite Kim Yoo Jung!
this is just really really good and I’m so happy when watching it! The 2 romances are amazing! Watching Gun and Cher fall in love with each other has been so easy, comfortable and sweet - no crazy drama! And Thee and Zo’s relationship is just so beautiful- the way they love and support each other! BUT almost even better than the romantic relationships is the friendships! The beach trip was a lovely opportunity to just see the group have fun together. I loved Zo’s chat with Cher! but one of my favourite moments of the whole episode has to be at the end when Jack said to Cher “Let me know whenever you need me here. Hm?” - it such a simple sentence, but so so powerful - really got me in my feelings! Also Mike is just doing an amazing job - Jack is such a real and multifaceted character -definitely one of the most interesting side characters I’ve maybe ever seen in a BL - I really want to spend more time with his character. It’s not my favourite series ever, but I just really really like it!
I really loved this - it had a predictable storyline, but the acting, warm chemistry and wonderful characters made this such an enjoyable watch. I really got swept up in how comforting and romantic the leads relationship felt. Their kisses may not have been the best, but they get my vote for the best and most hugs in a KBL. Also (like everyone else) I loved the side couple - their dynamic was so fun and I'd actually love a whole series just about their story. Anyway this is my healing KBL I didn't know I needed - I can definitely see myself rewatching this often.
Even though I finished this back at the start of February, I still look back on this drama with so much fondness - I definitely started it and didn't really get it, but for some reason I kept tuning into it week after week and eventually, without even realising fell in love with these characters and this series. It's not the most progressive or current drama, but in so many ways its so unlike any other BL out there, truly unique - which is why at the start I think I struggled to get into it, but it's very special to me now.
2023 is clearly Jo Joon Young’s year! He’s starring in 3 ‘romance, youth’ dramas! AND I’m really excited about all of them - ‘Spirit Fingers’ sounds so sweet and healing, then Heesu in Class 2 has been one of my most anticipated BLs for ages - it’s even apparently even got that Netflix money, and then this!
Lee do Hyun is one of those expressive actors out there, I've only seen him in three dramas so far and his acting…
Yes! And he is consistently in really really good dramas - like he only has one drama he stars in that’s rated below an 8.5 on his MDL page! And they’re all so different - like he’s basically unrecognisable between his hilarious performance in Eighteen Again and then to compare that to him in The Glory! Truly so talented!
I was going to start this today, but I’ve been so busy that I haven’t been spoiled anything about it, except now that it’s amazing and one of them is probably gonna die…so I think I’ll wait until after it’s finished airing so that if one of them does die I’ll be able to try to emotionally prepare myself before I get too invested in these characters. see you later guys!
I actually love this drama so so much, but I just have to warn people who may be just starting it, this is one of the slowest slowburns I’ve maybe ever seen in a Kdrama - the leads share so many beautifully heart fluttering and deep emotional moments throughout which I loved, but as someone who loves slowburn…this was almost too slowburn for me - but still this is still such a brilliant drama.
how are the side couple in this? I keep seeing so many gifs of them and they’re making me want to watch this series even more than the lead couple is already making me want to.
