Perfect!

Literally sooo good! I loved it so much. Perfect acting, Perfect Romance, Perfect Revenge! Ahhhh so good! Never a dull moment. So worth the watch!

Sung Hoon finally landed himself a perfect role! He did so good. I'm so proud of him haha. Such a great ML. FL did so well too, especially for being a not so seasoned actress. She's so pretty.

I think it's safe to say I loved everything about it and I'll definitely be rewatchung. I love that it's only 12 Episodes, otherwise I feel like it would have dragged, but it was literally perfect:)

Highly recommend 10/10

Yan Zi Xian el actor guapísimo

Solo la vi por el actor, la historia es bastante predecible,pero esos clichés es lo que aveces buscamos nada complicado y que todo acabe bien . Pero advertencia ⚠ , el capítulo 24 es una total basuara te quedas 🤡 no entiendo si es una miniserie porque les gusta meter tanto drama si hasta el 23 todo estaba perfecto.🙄, lo bueno que si dejas de ver el capítulo final pues te quedas feliz pero si quieres acabar odiando al director pues ve el 24 😡🤬, en fin el protagonista es un papucho hermoso guapo y los besos y escenas románticas me encantaron parecían el gato y el ratón pero una vez que salieron por fin fueron muy tiernos y románticos . La parte del yate es muy romántica 🔥🧨. Ortea cosa que note que aveces la protagonista se comportaba como una niña y nadie la entendía pero el protagonista era todo un amor con ella , la actriz no me gusta tanto , En general y mi mas sincera opinión y reitero solo la vi por el actor por el merece ser vista . 🤭

First thing I noticed is that it's very well color-graded, like it's giving off that magically summer warmth feeling. Of course, you probably have to, it's very short so it wouldn't consume that much of your time when rendering it. The dynamic of the characters are great, they bounce off each other well enough, the chemistry is not there yet, but I can somewhat feel it, and the acting is good as well. The last bit kinda confused me a little bit with all the symbolism and stuff, I don't know if I understand it, but I'd like to believe that I somewhat understand what was shown.

vague title

so, yeah. this show did a thing.

tbis show made me realize i have a fetish for blonde twinks with mustaches so i think thats an automatic 10/10. I also love the addition of schizophrenic representation. love to see it, i feel seen and heard.

Not only did this show diagnose me with schizophrenia and possibly HIV, it also diagnosed me with very serious homophobia and i never wanna see a gay person ever again after this. It will be on sight. If i see fucking korn outside on the hood streets of bangkok i will not hesitate to whip out a glock and pop his ass straight back into his mamas womb.

9.0 cause i would love to see the entite cast have one giant orgy but whatever. a man could dram.

I FUCKING LOVE DFF

i fucking LOVE dff. great ass show.

it is a good show because i love jjfuaiz :) jjfuaiz is dominating the bl industry with their passionate acting and overwhelming chemistry that exceeds the limits of language and culture. They are truly a revolutionary pair and exactly what we needed after builds fatass left boc and we lost soldiers (biblebuild)

Jjfuaiz is singlehandedly saving us from the trenches and dragging our asses to freedom and victory. God bless jjfuaiz. 🙏 Jjfuaiz is the napoleon and josephine of our time, absolute true heroes.

Jjfuaiz are BEASTS when it comes to acting. they are cooking up a storm everytime the camera is on those two. “let daddy cook”? no. let jjfuaiz cook. theyre the goats of the industry for REAL and nothing will ever top their absolute W A+ tier acting.

i FUCKING love dff.

Funny female lead character with a sassy attitude that I enjoy in cross-genre roles

The drama in question comprises 31 episodes, each of which is only 10 minutes long. Despite the brevity of each episode, the storyline is impressively well-crafted, leaving no gaps in terms of plot and character development. I found myself constantly amazed by this feat, as the series manages to pack in all the necessary elements of a compelling love story within such a short timeframe.

One of the things that stood out to me about this drama was the excellent portrayal of the female lead. She was not only physically believable in both genres, but also displayed a remarkable level of sassiness and maturity, avoiding the typical childish character tropes that can be so annoying. The chemistry between the two leads was palpable, and they made for a great match on screen. The plot was engaging and kept me hooked from start to finish, with a few laugh-out-loud moments thrown in for good measure. Overall, I thought this drama was very well done and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quick yet satisfying watch.

The show was aired in December 2022 with an explicit mention of a second season. I am eagerly awaiting its release and hope it arrives soon.

Kinda forgettable not gonna lie

I didn't feel the chemistry between the characters. The acting is somewhat decent, except for the Male actor, though he only had a bit part.

The whole setup of hinting at each other's feelings, like a tug of war who will slip up and confess was okay I guess, it was kinda cute.

There's not much cinematography, but that's understandable. Lastly, there's no background music at all even though music is the half of heavy lifting to make a scene more impactful.

I know it's a very short film, but I've seen some tiktoks where in a span of a minute, it'll be able to tickle your heart, so there's no excuse.

Concrete Utopia is a great movie

Quote: Concerning the totals disaster surrounding them, “Honestly, there is no difference between a murderer and a Pastor.” From Concrete Utopia.

Whenever there is a total disaster with little possibility of relief forth coming, the first thing to go is humanity. Looking out for only self rises to a heightened level in many people. When resources are at a minimum, and vital resources like food, clothing and shelter are limited, the “have nots” get most fierce.

Concrete Utopia looks at such a situation, created by a disaster which leveled most all of the country, and how people react to this situation. Disaster uncovers an unbalance of power, with people seizing authority. Decisions are made as to who to help and why. Distribution of resources is usually uneven. In Concrete Utopia, people try to make order out of disorder. Society breaks down, as the unworthy try to seize control. This movie did a great job depicting the stress and duress of living in a total disaster situation. Right or wrong, the hard decisions they chose to make called for hypocritical resolutions. When some of your resources are outside of your controlled area, this also should govern the decisions you make. There are a lot of lessons to learn from this movie. You will have lots of head talk after viewing it.

This disaster takes place in a country which does not promote gun ownership. The outcome would have been so totally different in any of the 24 states in the U S which allows concealed carry of guns. I am not saying that this would be a good thing, to own a gun. Frankly, the mess created would have just been bigger.

The best show i've ever watch

LostYouForever conveys women independent & strong view of love. And the CP relationship in lost you forever drama is just a superficial expression of real women’s emotional demands. Unlike large scale costume drama who’s creating tempting scene of spectacle & use the narrative method to enter, LostYouForever down to earth worldview structure, live shooting is the most suitable for actor & actress to complement each other&everything in the story becoming real. And YangZi acting skill in this show is superb, she can switch character from man, women and between identitidentities.

Love Endures, It's a beautiful tale of childhood friendships

It's a beautiful tale of childhood friendships and how they evolve over time. The journey from playful teens to complex adults is portrayed with emotional depth and relatable twists.
A must-watch for those who cherish stories about enduring bonds and the rollercoaster of life.

My favorite line from the opening ost,
“From then on we had our own stories”
“The small universe in our respective orbits”
“Maybe in a city where dreams shine too bright”
“You will forget and lose those carefree day”

Didn't watch first season? NO PROBLEM!!

BETTER THAN SEASON ONE!

Although this does have romance, the main focus isn't about it!

From the beginning of the first episode, it is filled with action, amazing humor, and amazing cast of characters!!

Really goes into details about the brotherly bond, friendships, and overall integrity of the whole theme!!

Great storyline as well, really could watch this season on its own~ But really makes you fall more in love with the mains from the last season. All the sides stories were heart wrenching and even the villians were entertaining and really played their part!

Also the music + songs were top tier !! Really got you in the moments of justice, sadness, and excitement!

A very enjoyable drama - whether you watched the first season or NOT! Recommend!

This is a very well done second chance romance and seeking justice miniseries. The main characters did a good job bringing their characters to life and the leading couple has great chemistry. There were unlikeable characters that did not act so well and a bit of incoherence due to the nature of the fact that many miniseries lack fluid transition between episodes. The male lead acknowledges that he wronged the female lead at the beginning but the drama is more about how he spent the 6 years separation period, her return seeking justice for herself, working together to unravel the mystery behind her grandfather’s death, and finding a way to reconciliation. Even though there are some times that keeping the antagonist around when they knew she was rotten and going on solo “missions” did not make sense, one must remember that that is the way the plot was written. : ( Overall, the drama is entertaining, enjoy it!

"The wind breezes through without a trace"

House of Flying Daggers was a movie where style over substance wasn’t a failing. Zhang Yi Mou pulled out his magical color palette and bathed the screen with gorgeous deep hues. Beautiful people wore luxurious costumes as they danced, fought, and loved in the kaleidoscope background. This director knows how to hit all my film watching pleasure spots through sight and sound.

The plot is fairly simple. With a failing and corrupt government, the underground House of Daggers grew into being. Stealing from the rich and helping the poor while fighting against the crooked officials they’ve earned a target on their backs. Jin and Liu are tasked with bringing down the Daggers’ leader. They suspect the new blind dancer at the Peony Pavilion is the daughter of the recently deceased leader and seek to use her to guide them to the alliance through subterfuge. Jin goes undercover as someone taken with her beauty and breaks her out of jail. The only problem is, “who’s zoomin’ who?”

The thin storyline worked largely due to the commitment of Zhang Zi Yi and Kaneshiro Takeshi in playing adversaries pretending to have fallen for each other, especially when their true feelings begin to trip them up. Their relationship evolves from brutal possession to erotic whispering caresses. Treachery and zealous devotion played out both personally and professionally for a number of people. The twists and turns may not have been earthshattering but they were entertaining. They also showed how little value was put on the lives of the pawns in the game between two powerful forces.

Tony Ching choreographed numerous wire-fu fights with swords and speeding daggers. The battle in the bamboo forest was stunning. Soldiers crawling up and down the verdant trees while also using them as weapons was enthralling. For the most part people were shown full body length in order to observe the intensity of the fights. When the bamboo shatters or impales it was both beautiful and shocking. The singing daggers could bend in flight and bank off of objects to land their targets. While not a fight, Zhang Zi Yi’s dance with the drums was breathtaking and quite memorable. Zhang Jianmin’s dance choreography flowed with power equal to any fight in the film. The percussion ballet was as magnificent as the bamboo one.

Umebayashi Shigeru’s score could be wistful one moment and heart pounding the next. Romantic, playful, traditional and modern, the music enhanced every scene. Zhang’s use of color never ceases to amaze me. Whether in the feminine Peony Pavilion with pink dresses and butterflies or the autumnal trees and falling leaves of the forest, he never neglects the important visual aspects of his films. As mentioned before, the emerald bamboo battle was one of the most iconic scenes from his films.

Mei and Jin’s life and death decisions were made in the sheer elegance and poetry of Zhang’s visual style accompanied by a haunting score. The plot involving both personal and national passions played out in the forests, fields of flowers, and snow. It’s hard to say which was more captivating, I tend to lose my sense of perspective when immersed in Zhang Yi Mou’s world.
