Você Me Faz Dançar (2021)

A classic Kdrama

I have mixed feelings about this drama. I think leads did a fantastic job in acting. I think plot was more or less okay. And even though it did not bring anything new on the table, I liked it.

The problem for me is the usage of the same kind of plot development over and over again. This was a very short series with 15 min long episodes and still writers manage to include a very unnecessary break-up and very expected making up scene just as the leads got together. I do not understand the logic behind this.

I was hard to watch the struggles of a very talented young dancer to begin with. He was really alone. His relationship with his mother was heartbreaking. What was the point of that last part? I kinda thought, If he left like that I would not want him back to be honest.

And although I am a sucker for happy endings, this time it was just an okay ending for me.

Something light, that made me want to dance

A short drama that caught my attention for the dance theme and the aesthetics as well.

Basic summary.... A good drama, touching and engaging like every Korean drama. The actors are good, have good chemistry and I recommend it for those who like a light romance without much catching. If you want a short story, without much believable development and with a cute love, this drama can please you as it pleased me.

Now the whole review:
First you need to start watching knowing that the story is not meant to give you great conflicts and surprising twists, it is a light and relaxed cliché, which yes, could be better if it had another purpose. I believe that for what the program announces there is a very satisfactory delivery. You Make Me Dance was one of the dramas on my list that took me the longest to watch, but as I recently saw that it was shorter, I decided to end my procrastination soon. And what an experience my friends, really heartwarming and making him dance to the beat of every dance, dialog and scene. As I said the actors have chemistry and I follow a classic drama script, very light and without those hot kisses - except for the first one in the office, which for me was the best.
I think it was the only thing that left me with a taste of wanting more, I wanted a little more intensity - it's not chemistry, because it has plenty in the looks and conversations. I loved the soundtrack and I already have some songs saved on my Spotify cof cof hahaha.

No Spoiler:
Unlike other small series I've seen, I believe this one had a round end and left me satisfied, without that feeling of "Oh my God, why did it end if there could still be more?". Because it didn't need more and if it had maybe it would spoil - unlike the last review you wrote about Semantic Error, YMMD is a treat with a nice and cute ending.
I really enjoyed the moments I spent with this drama and I really hope more people can be influenced to watch it by my review.

Spoiler:
I liked the way they developed Shi On, a boy who was forced to grow up and mature on his own after a regretful abandonment, and who still trusts people and wants them around, even if he is rejected. He tries hard and puts effort into everything he does and that's why he doesn't lose their love. As for Hong Seok, I have to admit that I was angry with him at the end for hurting my baby Shi On, but he ended up making the right decision and leaving the boss going back to his beloved. The end even made me like the chief collector, who released him from his promise. The legend of the red thread might be a beaten and overused one, but here it works and makes everything even cuter - the first scene made me smile like a little girl in love hahaha. The two needed to find each other and really form a couple that can't be separated and when a novel manages to leave this feeling in the viewer, ladies and gentlemen, this is a good novel. When you believe that nothing can stop them and that no matter the difficulty, they will get through it together.

You make my heart dance *cries*

As I had heard about it and was excited about it before I finally had time to watch it and it was what I was expecting tbh.

It's not bad or extremely life changing, it's lighthearted with its heartfelt moments but with its flaws.

I was pretty invested in it since the beginning, having the story in mind made me interested in it, however having a close look into the story some characters could've been developed better and I was also hoping that they'll show more after the discussion they had on the 7th episode.

The ending felt pretty rushed, the writers could've paced the story better having in mind how short it was gonna be, they had a solid idea that just had to be closed quickly because of the lack of time, the ending felt very fairytale like and didn't make much sense tbh. Especially with the reaction from the main loan shark.. If you don't think about it, it may be fine but it was just kinda out of character.

The music is cute and if you connect with the story from the beginning there won't be many issues or they won't be that big of a deal. Personally I liked it and throughly enjoyed it, the main characters have pretty good chemistry and they had their cute and absurd moments.

It's an enjoyable watch when having time to spare and if seen light heartedly it's a pretty fun watch as well.

was a good fun time... but felt like missed potential

You make me dance is one of the best kbls out there, the only reason it being the best is because there's not many options to choose from here. I liked the characters and their chemistry and I thought it worked really well. The plot felt evenly paced, excluding the dramatic plot line in the last episode. But the only problem I have here is with the dynamic between the two characters. There constantly feels like there's a power imbalance between the two characters. Just think about the emotional burden of a debt collector on your back constantly... loan sharks are terrifying LMAO. What I feel like they could've done was focus more on Jin Hong Seok reconnecting with his piano roots and rediscovering his dream through song shi on. That way they both could've grown and gone through character development together. Instead of making him a loan shark, they could have made him be in some sort of low paying job such as a cashier which still honestly represents Hong seok's broken dreams.
This could have been such a motivational and inspiring love story between a passionate guy who encourages the other to follow his dreams.

magical chemistry, but the story could've been better

the pacing is so rushed and the ending feels so forced(i like it anyway, who doesn't want a happy ending?)

even so, they were both so cute. i also like how there weren't homophobia nor characters who "just got confused" with their sexuality. they're also an unusual pair, which makes it interesting. i just wish it was longer and the direction was better. great acting and performance anyway.

could've been easily one of the greatest bl plots if it was just executed well by the director. weirdass sudden character development by the boss lol. thanks for letting the boys be together, i guess? lmao

It made me cry!

Breaking news, this is actually NOT a bromance! Please have in mind that you still have the rated 18 but you know what? I’m happy how they did it. The most incredible work (besides the acting) is the incredible camera angles. Honestly, been a low budget BL series always brings many difficulties, but, they really had a great team on this show.

The story was incredible and heart breaking. I really thought that it was going to have the horrible and typical ending from the Korean side. So far, they are 50-50 on the BL’s ending and at the very end, it looked like it was going to be another heartbreaking story. I was so moved by the ending that it had me clapping and crying. Yes, I admitted, I cried a little bit…lol.

The acting got me so bad that I killed the series in 4hrs. To bad it’s already 11pm because if it was the weekend or earlier, I would have benched the movie as well.

Incredible story and acting!

I Came for the Dance and Stayed for the Performance

This series is great because of the uniqueness of the storyline. It doesn’t spend much time on character introduction but immediately slips into the central storyline. Some might feel that as a disadvantage since we don't get much understanding of the characters and certainly no backstories, but with the main plot being so entertaining and the performances so exceptional, we can overlook those faults.

The story revolves around Song Shi-On, a talented dancer, and Jin Hong Seok, a debt collector. Their paths cross because Shi-On fails to pay off his debts, and Hong Seok forces himself into Shi-On’s life, taking control of his dance practices to ensure that he wins the competition and pays off his debts. This leads to a unique and captivating relationship.

One of the strengths of the series is the performances by the two main characters. Won Tae Min portrays Jin Hong Seok, a cold and stoic debt collector who slowly starts to have feelings for Shi-On. Tae Min fully embodies the character of Hong Seok, making us feel his belief in Shi-On’s dreams and his unwavering support. Choo Young Woo brings Shi-On to life, exploring the complexities of his journey and delving into themes such as self-discovery, pursuing one's passion, and overcoming personal obstacles.

One potential weakness of the series is its short episode duration, which might leave some wanting more in terms of character development and plot exploration. However, the engaging performances and captivating chemistry between the leads compensate for this to a large extent.

In conclusion, 'You Make Me Dance' is a delightful and uplifting series that offers a fresh take on romance. The brilliant performances by the actors, the well-executed dance sequences, and the fitting choice of background score make this truly entertaining.
