Early BL series, with all the flaws of a starting industry and a cult status today.

I am very torn about this one, and I cannot really make up my mind.

First let me give you some background about me (in order to present you with some context). When this came out I watched it and I liked it very much, since (believe it or not) this was my first asian BL series. In reality I became infatuated, probably because I had just broken up with my Chinese bf. I got so hooked up, that I read the book in Chinese (which, given my language level at the time, was quite a struggle). In fact, I even started reading the second book (yes there is a continuation), but the story was so ridiculous that I gave up halfway through. The bottom line is that for personal reasons I somehow relayed more than expected to the characters, probably trying to make sense of my life at the time. This led to my adoring the series, and I suppose that a series or film that can succeed in connecting to its viewers can be regarded as successful. However, it is not always straightforward to cleanly separate successful and good.

After rewatching it (mostly in fast forward this time) a few years later, I realized that if I have to be honest the series is amateurish, the actors have little to no chemistry (at least not compared with modern series), and that the plot sucks (to put it mildly). The episodes are often logically disconnected and without the knowledge of the book plot (which per se is already wanting), the viewer is left confused.

Does this suffice for a bad rating? Well yes and no. Yes, since (at least for today's standards) this is a badly made series, but then again no, because when it was made it was quite revolutionary (especially it being a Chinese production). And everyone involved did their best (for that time). Obviously, same as with every type of art, judging old movies today is completely unfair. A Buster Keaton or the SanMao movie would be complete flops today... Furthermore, the series made quite a stir, to the point that people legally suffered because of it (google to see what happened to the main leads), which gives many plus points in my eyes.

Be it as it may, the series has definitely acquired a cult value among Asian-BL lovers like myself. If you want to watch a modern high-level production of a BL series, then this is probably not the best choice. If you want to understand what the early steps of the industry were, then this is definitely a must.

A SWEET TREAT FOR BABIS

If you follow OffGun for a while, you would have known that OffGun is not the type to take such cute and light hearted series like this and we always were impressed with their amazing series like NotMe, Theory Of Love but this series are fluff and comedy which is a sweet treat for Babis. Some will like it but some will not but for me, as a long time Babis, I LOVE IT!!! I feel like Gun shows a different side of him because usually we will see how defensive he is being towards Off but in this series, as Prem, he is being 100% honest with his feelings and there is no stupid conflict like him always crying for stupid shit. I like Prem's character, he is being straight forward though, he doesn't deny his feelings towards Ten. AND CAN I JUST SAY HOW ADORABLE THEIR KISS IN EP 5????? LIKE UM HELLO??? THEY BOTH LEAN FOR THE KISS WHICH SHOWS THEY BOTH LIKES EACH OTHER??!!!!!

UGHHHHH!!! MY GOODNESS!!!! SO ADORABLE! OFF'S CHARACTER THOUGH, i found it cute. Ten's character is someone who just do it without thinking for the outcome and he prioritize love over logic which is opposite of Off lol. He usually takes the character of being aggressive and tense but again, Ten is someone sweet, quite naive but sometimes could be sexy too LOL. If you watch the series, you will know what Im talking about LMAOOO. But to be honest, I dont have any much complain except that I found Neo be in this series is somewhat a little bit... off? He usually takes such a strong character but this character is too soft and too... how do I say this... too passive. I feel like he is being dishonest LMAO. IM SORRY. AND Okay, i understand that Aungpao is a good actor but still, something lacking and UGH I CANNOT SHRUG THE FACT THAT HIS CHARACTER WERE SUPPOSE TO BE PLAY BY MARK PAKIN!!! UGH he would have play that character like it's his life!!

Other than that, I still feel that new actor in this series still need more workshop and more room of improvement to do. Anyway, I still love this series since im a Babi. SO - now im waiting for the trainee series to be release so MORE OFFGUN!!! JYEAHHHHH!!! If you are a fan of light hearted comedy fluff series, please go ahead and watch this naaa <3

Sizzling chemistry is the only selling point of this drama

Every time I searched for a modern c drama, this popped up. With a high rating of 8.something, it's worth a try.

But be prepared for girls in tiny, crotch revealing skirts/ shorts. Thank God the squeaky baby voice was discarded.
The villain lady with straight black hair and red lipstick.
The clichéd car accidents
The cringey share holders meetings
The jealous and greedy family of the millionaires

Just be ready to crawl under a blanket with all these silly creatures
BECAUSE
The ML is worth every minute of it.......

He's a dish, carries his role well, underplayed, macho.....Hmmmm mmmmm
The FL does a good job too. She adds the sizzle to their chemistry and does not shy away from the intimate scenes.
Sticks to her role and is kind of underplayed.

Most others need an award for overacting, especially that FL ' s friend.

So yeah, keep your remote close, skip through the rubbish and enjoy the steamy romance.

The most disappointing Kdrama

I've never been this disappointed about a kdrama.
This one had so much potential and it only got worse half way. What a way to show women are weak and often go for the wrong guy.
How can anyone who was ignored, mistreated, belittle, and even humiliated in front of others decides to go with the guy who did all of that to her.
This guy was all about himself and winning and what bad friend specially to a guy who was supposed to be such a nice guy.
Forget the part about the best friend having more money and is more handsome and taller, but he is kind, thoughtful, mature, selfless, and stands up to the mother who wants to marry him to just another rich girl.
Lee Hwa Shin, should have been a better friend a better man and stand to the side and let go of the girl he ignored for 3 years.
Pyo Na Ri, drove me crazy with her weak personality, always crying and not standing up to herself when anyone was mean to hear. Once can only take so much.
They really need to write better female characters that stand for themselves and have more respect for themselves.
I have no clue why they dragged this drama to 24 episodes, I actually stop at 19, because it was ridiculous.
This story should have been done in 12 episodes!

absolutely terrible

this is one of those genuinely unenjoyable dramas that make me baffled to find out that people actually enjoy this steaming hot pile of garbage????? maybe my personal bias against both rich people and marriage as an institution is affecting my objectiveness but i hated every second of this extremely unrelatably written plot and i hated jiwon's character immensely. dongyeon's role, soohyun crying were the only highlights imo it's boththe main leads WORST work that appeals to uncritical straights

Everything wasn’t so predictable like some K dramas could be, I love the action I love the actors the cast was just amazing the direction of each scene it was just great. Female Lead was just awesome ?. I wish it was more episodes , but no issues .. eagerly waiting for season 2.

Nothing Wrong, Could Be More Right

I. Introduction
This is a solid rebirth-themed short-length drama, with few plot holes. The drama follows the FL in her rebirth life, as she seeks revenge on the people who did her wrong. Each revenge scene has a convenient flashback to explain what went wrong in her previous life, before bringing the audience back to the current timeline whereupon the FL promptly dispenses justice. The drama tiptoes around the plot hole where the villains have not actually done the FL wrong yet by hinting that they would have, if it weren't for the FL going on defensive offense. I was hooked throughout the 3.5 hours, and I have rewatched this twice. And yes, it has a satisfying ending.

II. Storyline/ Plot
Episode 1 opens with the FL, a decorated war general, in labour, whereupon she is betrayed by her husband the 2nd prince (the main villain), her sister (who is also sister wife), and her closest personal maid. They murder her child, then her. She awakens to find herself on the night of her marriage to the 7th prince (ML). She proposes to the disbelieving ML to work together to defeat the villain. After the FL proves herself, the ML cautiously agrees to cooperate. In the beginning, the FL takes action on her own, based on her recollection of past events and the ML astutely steps up to support the FL in her play. The FL is willing to hurt herself, just to seek retribution; her plan being to lure the main villain into destroying himself. Witnessing her resolve, the ML begins to fall in love with the FL and refuses to let her leave him. Every time the ML enquires how the villains had hurt her, the FL refuses to answer. Halfway through the drama, the ML expresses his frustrations at how the FL does not trust the ML enough to include him in her plans. The FL appears oblivious to the ML's feelings, but the ML persistently expresses his feelings. Finally, the FL trusts the ML enough to disclose that her premonitions were her experiences from her past life. At the end, all villains face their just desserts: her evil stepmother is forced to commit suicide for her crimes, her sister is driven mad, her ex-husband the 2nd prince is killed (by the ML no less!). The final scene is of the ML supporting the FL in returning to the frontlines when the country faces a crisis, because she is first Murong Qiuyu the person, then the General Pingxiang as appointed, before she is the 7th prince's wife (which I thought was bloody romantic).

The overall plot is solid, with few plot holes that you'd only notice if you really thought about it. The retribution plan is not particularly ingenious and merely required the FL's previous experience as background knowledge, but the plan was plausible and did not require full suspension of disbelief and outrageous miraculous resources. Nothing in the storyline jumps out to slap you in the face with a smelly tuna or leaves you hanging at the end as everything is tied up neatly.

III. Characters
I enjoyed the chemistry between WMJ (FL) and CB (ML). They didn't have the fiery passion of a young romance, but the companionship of an old couple or mature people who've been through the worst in life and found solace and comfort in each other. The romance between the two developed at a good, believable pace, and WMJ and CB performed their roles remarkably well. I'd like to see both together or individually in more dramas. LSY (main villain) and MLE (villain sister) surprisingly did really well as villains; LSY had me believing he's truly obnoxious and vile and MLE, as a spoilt, conniving woman.

IV. Production Aspects
I watched the drama as a full-length movie, so most of the theme songs were cut out. But if you search YouTube, you will find that there were 4 and all 4 are fantastic and would have definitely augmented the drama to full-length drama quality. The costumes and set weren't bad but nothing particularly stood out to me; both were designed to reflect a more sombre drama (think LLTG) than happy bright themes (e.g., AB).

V. Conclusion
This is worth watching, especially if you have a predilection for clever leads, satisfying comeuppance for evildoers, and complete endings.

The ending ruined it!

OK.........first off good for them to try and bring the whole Omegaverse to the TV screen, however there were a few areas of it that they didn't really go that far into, and thats why some people (i know personally) seemed to be so confused as to why Babe became so obsessed with Charlie so quickly. The show did mention that Babe doesn't like Alpha scents and Charlie doesn't have one, but other than that it kinda skipped over it and lots of people didn't see that as a reason for their relationship. The whole Way being an Enigma thing was the same. Some people didn't understand it, and it was only partially explained in the show.

Personally I loved it, I loved the way they didn't follow the stereotypes of 'tops' and 'bottoms' in gay relationships.........with Babe being perfectly comfortable being the 'bottom' in their relationship, and not one even raising an eyebrow at it. That was great. Pavel and Pooh had great onscreen chemistry, and really worked together well. It's the first time I had seen either of them on screen and i'm glad I did.
Babe was really well written and Pavel knocked it out the park. Charlie was a little less understandable, but that was his character, still Pooh did well with it. Even Nut in playing Way.......you know an actor is doing brilliantly when you want to reach into the screen and strangle their character!

This show was seriously going to be one of the best shows i'd seen in a while with its new Omegverse plot, cinematography, actors and interesting plot..........until about episode 9...........then it fell off a cliff!

I have no idea what happened after that but YIKES!
There was no reason to 'kill' Charlie except for to devastate Babe and separate our two leads for a while...........and it was WAY too long! But even then, while Charlie was 'dead' how they handled it was seriously messy. After Babe had had a breakdown weeping for the loss of his partner, Charlie was never mentioned again by anyone, except once when Charlie himself asked Jeff how Babe was dealing with his death.......it was almost like the show was going 'ok he died, and now we move on'. It didn't work right.
Then you had the Kenta/Kim/Pete/Way mess. They were setting up Way and Pete only to then set up Pete with Kenta, who they had kinda set up with Kim......they couldn't decide what they were doing. And I'm sorry but turning Kim into basically the third stooge with North and Sonic was just a waste of that character after its great introduction.
Babe's father and his magic 'antidote'.........they spent so much time on that.........but in the end nothing happened. That was pointless and just wasted time.
Charlie's 'plan' to save Babe by dying.......again nothing came of it, and it just wated time the writers could have used better by forwarding the plot, character relationships and development.
The end episodes where a mess and really let the show down!

Still I liked the show and would watch it again, simply for the chemistry of the cast and because those first episodes were well written.

An Odd but Fun One

Initially, I gave it a 9.5 instead of 10. But after thinking for awhile and got the conclusion that there might not be another C-drama of similar type in the near future (a year or two), I gave it a 10. That being said, this drama is not flawless for me, but definitely worth a watch if you are up for some stories featuring adventures, mysteries and horror (slight, not a lot). It's best if you get into the drama blind (i.e. without knowing any spoilers), spoilers would really kill the fun watching this!

To put it simply, watching this is like watching Great Escape, the tv show, but in drama format. Or it's like another similar drama, 19th Floor (p.s. but way better ?). Or if you didn't know about both mentioned shows, it's like watching a group of people playing multiple levels of escape rooms, but in this drama, they are escaping worlds (or what they called Doors in the drama) instead of rooms.

I really like how the characters were written in this, especially Ruan Lan Zhu. Easily one of my most favourite MLs of all time.

Castings were very well done too! I didn't know about Xia Zhi Guang before watching this, but he portrayed Ruan Lan Zhu perfectly. Lu Meng Lin as well, perfectly fits her role as Tan Zao Zao. And many other side characters, be it the players (Liu Xiao Bei as Li Dong Yuan) or the NPCs (Jia Xiao Han as Lu Zuo Zi, Jessie Yan as the nurse, Chen Xu as Lady in the Rain) just to name a few, they are all very memorable to me. The only minor complaint I have is that I wished Huang Jun Jie's acting was better. He wasn't too bad, but could be a little better.

Music and OSTs in this drama are good too, especially "I Know", the theme song that they play in almost every sad scenes. And the song in Zuo Zi's story.

I would definitely rewatch this again, but I think rewatching won't bring me as much surprises as when I first watched it. Hence, its score being the lowest among the 4 categories.

Thank you for reading this review. And lastly, if you haven't watch this, what are you waiting for? ?

Several attempts needed to not drop it

Finally completed. It was actually a mediocre drama. I needed several attempts to not drop it after watching the first couple episodes. It was hard to imagine the ML as a prince- he looks way too young with that baby face and too skinny. Fortunately he has a deep smooth voice which indicated that he was a grown-up in the drama and not a little boy... His and the FL's acting was decent and both were a good match although I didn't feel much chemistry. The kissing scenes were awkward.

The FL was a brave and intelligent young woman but her harsh voice is seriously hard to listen. It destroyed just every romantic mood. I wouldn't watch another drama with her as the main lead. Also the motives of the villain were confusing and not consistent, many steps seemed just like to fill the 16 episodes. Therefore the pace felt from the 9th episodes really off and the story got draggy. The timeline was also really messed up. The FL is apparently 28 ys old and ten years ago she was 18 ys old- so why was she still a little girl in the memories of the prince? The ten years gap was mentioned multiple times... not sure if the subtitles were just bad.

The good things: the comedy is fine, the OST is not outstanding but still nice and I enjoyed the life of the prince during his time in the village (though it was way too long). But the best cast was the brother (such pretty eyes!)- he played his role as an assassin very well and was the most interesting person, unfortunately he didn't got more screen time to know more about him and his past.

Mixed feelings

I have mixed feelings for this drama. The beginning was good- I binge watched the first couple of episodes. The daily life between city and countryside was realistic and as someone who also has to commute (though I live in a city) and who is just like the FL an introvert I could relate to many things.

But around the 11th epsiode I started to skip many scenes, especially related to the siblings. The (poetic) dialogues got heavier, seemed to be forced, the order of the scenes didn't seem coherent and it was hard to follow. Also I couldn't stand the toxic behaviour of some characters. I made me mad how the brother treated his chummy friend. It was also such a disappointment that we didn't get more romantic scenes between FL and ML. I was rooting so much for them and when they finally kissed the camera immediately zoomed out. It was a huge let down... therefore the rating in Netflix doesn't make any sense (in my country it is from age 16, same like squid game).

Also the huge alcohol abuse was irritating. They were basically drinking all the time and even if you are just drinking daily an after work pint you can be considered as an alcoholic. There wasn't a big difference between Mr Gu and them. I know alcohol is rooted into Korean culture but it was shocking that the consequences of alcohol consumption were so much played down and not carefully painted.

Review I Ceco K

This is my short Review for Money Heist Korea.
Very important, my rating is for both seasons together. It would be slightly better, if I would rate season 2 by itself, but for me both parts are one. So this will be my final rating.
If you want to see a more precise Review, please visit my video. Of course my review will be without any spoilers :)

Cyrano 'au contraire'

I guess you all know the plot of Cyrano de Bergerac, one of the most iconic love stories ever written in history...
The beauty of that romantic novel - model for a thousand of love stories written afterwards, looking at it as an inspiration- resides in one simple concept: the pure, true, unselfish, generous love of Cyrano at the end is recognised by the woman he loves and it's , somehow, rewarded.
Well, turn it upside-down and you get the plot of 'Start-up'.
Here, instead, the selfish, aggressive, deceitful, serial-liar male character gets the too-good-for-him-girl and the generous boy gets nothing but a slap on his face.
I don't know what's the personal problem of the writer, or if the director has gone through a difficult relationship , but it looks like their intent is to destroy an otherwise potentially beautiful love story about two people who were ment to be together, bound by destiny; I bet most of the K-drama fans who were watching the first episodes expected that natural outcome. But, no:, the director and writers went the other way: nstead of giving us a story with a meaningful message (honesty and generosity will be rewarded) and an happy ending, they decided to ruin our mood by giving us an ugly ending (dishonesty and lies win the heart of the Beauty).
Personally, I'm a huge fan on Bae Suzy because I find her possibly the most attractive and cute Korean actress ever. Therefore, I am pissed off by seeing again and again that the film-makers in korean indusrty keep on giving her 'cinderella' roles, where she plays always the role of a fragile young woman who has to be saved by the Prince. And it's not just any ordinary Cinderella, she depicts a stupid one, at that: in this serie's plot, just tell me please how can an intelligent person accept to be together with such a liar? How can't she recognise where real love comes from? So disturbing!
It's not the first serie where Bae Suzy ends up with the wrong guy; in 'While you were sleeping' she gives herself away too easily to a dull, narcissistic and childish male lead (in that case it was the always boring, boysh, one-expression-only-in-the-whole-film, Lee Jong-suk; he's probably like that in real life, I guess) .
Please, give her a better male lead next time, some real, grown-up man.

Surprisingly quite good

The synopsis is so ridiculous that I've to watch it lol...This is epic manga style cringe. So, it's not for everyone, but if you're used to manga, you can kinda close one eyes for it.

I did find some episodes really cringey, yet it's surprisingly nice to watch. There's an actual storyline that keeps me clicking next. It's also such an old-school scifi style of storyline which we haven't seen for a while, so I kinda like it really

I have not read the manga, but it felt like it might be a close adaptation, at least image wise, because, seriously i've never seen such ridiculous scenes in drama before

Overall, I quite enjoy it, had good laughs at some point and the indirect reference to BTS is pretty cool

It's not the kind of show I'll put on top of my list but would be a nice break from the usual drama, kind of to watch something different and shake things up a little.
