Cried like a baby

Where to even start? First and foremost the amount of times that I cried in this show is actually horrendous. Like babes I’m not even joking with you right now (actually tearing up rn). The acting: the acting was really good. Natural chemistry between all the actors.
The characters: Kuhn Yai. Oh that sweet talking handsome man. Kuhn Yai will forever hold a special place in my heart. Jom was okay. The amount of times his character gave me anxiety in this show was too many. Actually the amount of anxiety Yai and Jom gave me throughout the show was WAY TOO MANY.
I loved the lesbian side story because we don’t get much WLW representation in general so THANK YOU for even just this side story. But the KISS! That’s was so unexpected but gladly appreciated. In BLs WLW relationships are terribly represented so I was so shocked at the good scenes with the side GL storyline.
The plot. This is where I have some unanswered questions. Throughout the story we are introduced to a bunch of things that you would think by the end would be of importance or have a role to play later on but a lot of things did in fact not mean anything. We are introduced to a ring that didn’t mean anything, a gift from Yai to Jom that looks like a time turner from Harry Potter and dreams that Jom had but never touched on. I definitely feel like the director could’ve done better. Jom found pictures in a chest from a new house project he took on in the beginning. Later we find out he drew them himself but when he rediscovers them after he comes back from the past it’s like they lose their value to us as a watcher because we’ve already seen Jom digging through the chest finding the drawings and gift.
Having Jom see “ghost” of himself and Yai from the past while being in the future and vice versa was confusing. Also the ending with there being some kind of threshold that allows past Yai and future Jom meet? Like I like a happy ending but wtf is that?
Why introduce a possible season two with some weird warrior timeline with a RIDICULOUS mustache for Yai and have him not know remember Jom but Jom remember him? Is Jom the same in every timeline but not Yai. Why not have The same Yai and Jom because that would make them feel like actual soulmates?
They could have easily made Jom wake up from a coma and had Yai as a doctor and they meet again like that. Or Yai could’ve been the new house owner of Joms new house project and had that as the ending. Would have been so much better.
Anyways rant over lol. It was a good show and highly underrated and ofc I’m hoping for a season two.

LESBIANS WE FINALLY WON

Forever grateful for GMM tv to FINALLY give us a GL!!!! MilkLove are finally able to shine and girl we’ve been waiting for this since Bad Buddy*insert ugh emoji*.
Super stoked that ViewJune also took the place of GeminiFourth(much love for them) because this is how we have a first healthy authentic GL!
The show is hilarious and fun and not cringy (thankfully). Between Milk doing such a good job at showcasing the feelings of a love stricken teenage girl and Aylin (views character and my personal fave) I cannot get enough.
I hope GMMTV can see all the potential for other GL shows that they could produce that 23.5 has showcased.
Hopefully this is the start of a beautiful era of more GLs to come and finally giving Lesbians the same representation and love as they do for BLs.

Really GAY

Yes this is technically a bromance but there is nothing bromance about this show. This show just screams GAY in all the BEST ways. I haven’t read the novel that it was adapted from but I’m loving the show!
The acting is amazing and keeps you engaged. The show script itself is funny, sad, infuriating and all in between! I really feel the need to reiterate how GAY this show is*insert crying emotions*. I wished China didn’t have such strong censorship laws but if they didn’t then this show would’ve ended me.
I think it’s amazing though how great the chemistry main leads have. They can just look at each other and I feel like that did more than a passionate kiss.
Props to the writers and directors of the show with the sublet hints to all the gayness that couldn’t be openly displayed. There were so many times where I was pausing the show because I was squealing at how GAY the show was*insert laughing emoji*. Overall the show has a darker tone then most BLs but it’s also warm and fuzzy. The whole cast did a great job. Overall the show has many heartfelt, sad, hilarious, and tearjerker moments. One of the best dramas this year.

A cozy little story with natural chemistry

Yes you should watch this drama. It’s been a minute since I sat and binged watched a whole ass drama while smiling and kicking my feet and giggling.
There was some parts where I wanted to punch my screen because the actors were playing their role too well but for the majority I was just vibing with the show.
I don’t understand why I saw some people complain about the main leads not having chemistry? This is one of the more natural dramas I’ve watched with great amazing chemistry. Anyways it’s a quick watch that will make you feel warm and cozy so watch it!!!

A train wreck with bad time pacing but at least there’s Chot!

Step by step or few steps backwards? I genuinely need to speak to the people in charge of this show. This was like a really terrible car wreck where you want to look away but just cannot. Time is seemingly up to one’s imagination in this story. It’s nonexistent apparently. Ae literally just getting pregnant and then miraculously being 30+ weeks and then randomly giving birth on the street. Then cut to her wedding day with no baby weight. It makes no sense but I guess they just want us to accept it. If time gaps weren’t enough of a problem well the acting is definitely something also. The main leads.. Acting wise both main leads could’ve done more but I will say the actor who plays Jeng made Pats character slightly believable. Pats character is a big crybaby and I know he cannot control the script but he can control his acting. Pat cries when he’s happy and when he’s sad and it wouldn’t be bad if he actually shedded some tears. Gave me war flashbacks to Pete (much love though) when he did love in the air.
Character wise. From the beginning Pat irked my nerves and he just got worst throughout. Even with a 2year time leap he has no growth and still thinks the world revolves around himself. He needs to grow a backbone.
Ae and her friend prem. They’re some of the most selfish people in the show so it makes sense they’re best friends. She knew he was in love with her and basically kept stringing him along and he told her he liked her on her WEDDING day. I have no words.
I also have experienced my first distasteful comment in an Asian drama when referencing a western drama. Ae makes a comment about lily in Paris and body sizes. She talks about how even though she’s pregnant she’s still smaller than the MC (Lilly Collins). Lilly Collins has been very vocal on her anorexic and bulimia past. With it being 2023 you would think or at least hope the jokes about body sizes would’ve done ran out.
The Jaab and Jen storyline makes no absolute fucking sense. The writers of this show should receive an award for pulling off the impossible. I truly did not think they could make their storyline even more frustrating but they did up until the very end. I’m in disbelief that they made their storyline even more confusing and nonsensical. Genuinely baffled. The way their storyline goes makes you feel like you missed several chapters with them. I felt like I was watching another show and just started midway through. Jaab liked Jen but Jen had a boyfriend and then they kissed then avoided each other. Jen left and Jaab got a partner but is still pining over Jen? And they’re both sad and for what? Jen moved back home and months pass and hasn’t spoken to Jaab. Jaab spontaneously goes to visit Jen only to find Jen went to Japan. The writers give us absolutely nothing with them other than us seeing Jaab leave for Japan.
In the beginning I could not stand Put because he was manipulative but he’s one of the only characters that seemingly got a growth arc and I actually like him better in the end.
The Pat and Jengs storyline is another frustrating one. Jeng likes Pat but Pat is a big crybaby. Them getting together but being careless even though they have a boss/subordinate relationship.
And do not even get me started the Pat/Jen pity party scene. They had no reason to be acting that way.
Aside from that hot mess the love scenes were top tier and Jeng speaking English. Oooh boy it was getting hot in here. And Jeng working out. Yesssss ma’am I need to be cooled. Chot being the iconic character he is and giving me reasons to stay. Anyways watch it for Chot and Jeng and if you’re bored. Even the cute ass montage at the end is not enough to distract you from the train wreck this show was. Do not expect much between the filler episodes, plot holes and weird pacing of time.

Just Beautiful

This is going to be a rant while simultaneously convincing you to watch this beautiful movie.
The movie at first is seemingly about a young boy named Minato who is being “bullied” by his homeroom teacher. The homeroom teacher is convinced the boy Minato is bullying his classmate Yori. We come to see different perspectives on different situations throughout the movie that truly just make your heart ache.
This movie is not only outstanding with the cinematography and breathtaking acting but the overall ending to the story.
At first you’re left with an “open-ended” feeling being to what was such a beautiful movie but to me there was nothing open ended about it.
To me the ending symbolized the end of suffering for both Minato and Yori for just being who they were as humans.
This movie does a great job at showing the subtle behavior of someone who is questioning their sexuality at such a young age.
I saw many people say they haven't watched it yet because “they’re children” and were afraid that this movie was grooming them.
First, if you’re worried about them being “groomed” then congratulations because you are part of the problem in the world with such negative lighting towards the queer community. What does it matter how old they are? If you think people don’t already know or experience their queerness before becoming an “adult” then maybe you should seek out more queer stories from the queer community.
People who clearly think other wise only watch queer films to further fetishize the gay community.
Overall I just can’t simply talk about how beautiful this movie was and will still be years to come.
You should watch it because it’s a 10/10.

Yes, Yes and YES

This season was definitely better than season one. All couples were splendid but you’ll definitely like two of three the best. The kisses were delicious and well done except for one of the main couple (who has the dude that looks just like seungmin from stray kids) who gave stiff kisses but where they lacked in kissing they had some of the sweetest moments giving us everything else.
The show itself had good plots but I will say there was too much screen time for a certain character and it wouldn’t have been bad if only the writers and directors divulged and explored that certain storyline further. I still have many unanswered questions.
The actual editing of the show could have been a lot better. There were several scenes where you could see the boom mic and choppy editing with certain scenes where you can tell they were from several different takes.
Other than that everything else was well done. Especially the casting! So glad they got to explore and do more with the storyline and script this time around. Hopefully we’ll get more in the future!!!

There were some choices made.

Let’s be honest. This mini series left me quite disappointed. As someone who is a big fan of OnlyOneOf and specifically Nine and Mill well…
What I liked: obviously I was super excited about Nine and Mill. They have always caught my attention. They have such natural chemistry and they always have me on the edge of my seat. The soundtrack was obviously 10/10.
What I didn’t like: Not a huge fan on the writing. I’ve seen many people say they didn’t like the acting when tbh it wasn’t even that bad. I’ve seen worse acting trust and believe. I liked how they incorporated the band mates but my god could the writing not have been just a little better?
Honestly we could've scrapped the angst storyline they wanted to give and just gave us more bonding moments and scenes between our two male leads.
I really hope this mini series won’t deter people away from this amazing group and for the future projects they will give us. There was a kiss scene and I wished it was placed differently with different circumstances revolved around the kiss but I’ll take what I can get. I’m not sure what budget they were running on but the main few issues I had with this mini is for the exact fact that it was a mini series and not long enough episode. If it was longer than most of the problems could’ve been fully fleshed and I’m sure the show would’ve had a better outcome with the watchers.
Overall, it’s a very short mini series with an amazing cast so it won’t kill you if you do or don’t watch the show. Anyways regardless stream OnlyOneOf music!

Definitely a watch one time kinda show.

To say that this drama was a let down would be too easy. It’s been a hot minute before we had good back to back consecutive kbls since blueming, to my star and semantic error. I had some expectations considering we’ve gotten some of my favorite kbls in 2023 with our dating sim, the eight sense, and unconditional love. This is my fault I guess for thinking this drama would also make the same ranks.
The acting. Nothing wrong with the acting in fact it is some of the best in BLs that I’ve watched. The only reason this show wasn’t a complete bust was because of the decent acting.
The plot. Classic plot with best friend falls in love with other friend and then they disconnect but we all know they’ll reconnect and the roles of who is falling in love will shift. This could’ve have been the only plot of the series and it would’ve crept on by being an average typical bl story. But ofcourse in the last two episodes they throw in the “drama.” I was expecting one of the parties to miss the date because it’s the most obvious conflict for this type of plot but I really hate how they decided to add all this extra fluff of conflict with one of the protagonists mother. The writers really thought “hey lefts give this single mother a sickness in the last episode and have her not tell her son she moved and was running away from debtors.” The issue I had with this was because we never even heard why she needed surgery. Most people might be okay with this but I actually watch a lot of these dramas for the plot. Not just for some lovey dovey gay moments. Which by the way we barely got that in this drama anyways. Why even introduce this women’s struggles and not elaborate on it in even the slightest bit. You have slated this show for 8 episodes and 15 minutes long. WHAT WAS THE REASON?
Don’t even get me started on the chocolate scene. So one of our protagonist has a single mother who does her best to provide for her son. The son feels the struggle and does what he can to save his money which even means skipping meals. His best friend knows this and during the love confession takes the box of expensive chocolates that the poor friend used his money on and threw it down like it was garbage. He was mad his friend bought expensive chocolates on him when he knew he skips meals. This part really irked me because the writers wanted us to move on from this given the fact that when the guys reconcile they have us see the friend who bought the chocolates originally kept the broken box of chocolates in his room. When both guys met up again the douche bag dude who broke the chocolates ended up throwing the same box of chocolates that he broke originally away in the garbage in front of his friend. LIKE CMON. You know this dude skips meals but wanted to buy you something and you showed gratitude by throwing it away knowing he used his money on you. A simple thank you would’ve been sufficient. This part was hella triggering and thinking about it again is making me angry.
I don’t even want to talk about the kiss scene. You know what though let’s actually talk about it.
The first kiss well Can we even call it a kiss? I guess I’ve just gotten use to being spoiled with decent kiss scenes for this year with our dating sim and the 8th sense but damn if we’re going to get a cheap ass kiss the rule is to have a minimum of two cheap ass kisses. The perfect set up for kiss #2 was the chapstick scene. I’m really confused as to why they even had that as a gift from one of the guys to his partner for an anniversary gift if he didn’t mean for him to use it on the spot for convenient reasons such as getting your lips ready for a smooch. I for sure thought anyone with a knack for dramas in general would’ve wrote and directed that scene as after he puts on the chapstick that his partner gave him he would ask him if he would also like some. Or to also try it. No? Like anyone who watches dramas would’ve thought that’s what was going to happen.
If you didn’t want another direct kiss scene you could’ve easily slid by with an indirect kiss scene by having one of the protagonist apply the chapstick to his partners lips then use it on his. It’s giving the directing lacks effort.
The ring part after that was cute so I’ll say those two moments cancel each other out.
Most of the show was more intense and angsty. Honestly would’ve been okay but the last two episodes really threw me off.
I did like how after they both finally got their shit together they went head first into the couple thing and we’re cute or whatever.
Overall it’s a quick watch nothing more nothing less. It’s definitely not making the top 8 BLs of this year list but I wouldn’t rank it with others like Check out or what the duck so I guess it’s just meh. Go in with no expectations and you’ll be okay. If you don’t mind useless last minute conflicts that make no sense then this is for you. I didn’t waste my time but I wouldn’t rewatch it again.
Honestly people these days think they can have a good looking cast and slide on by nowadays with some nonsense writing and directing. Anyways I’m done ranting. Happy watching and pride month^ - ^

Just watch it my guy

Let’s talk about the obvious first. The cinematography is beautiful, Thea acting is superior and the storyline is not your usual run in the mill bl trope. I found this on the day it was released and I’m so excited because I had heard nothing about the series before hand. To my pleasant surprise the episodes were almost 40 minutes long. This was perfect for this story in particular because one of our main leads has unresolved trauma. We get to have snippets of his therapy sessions which gives us an insight of what he’s feeling and what he’s been through. The length of the drama is perfect because normally traumatic events in BLs are usually rushed to push foreword the story. Having the “conflict”start with our two main leads and then resolving it in the second to last episode is perfect because we get the last episode as a fluff. More dramas should do this in general because it’s obviously more satisfying to have the last episode with them being secure and loving than just say the last 10 minutes. Now the actors as individually. Oh Jun Taek did great ofcourse. He really played Ji Hyun perfectly. Im Ji Sub now is just wow. The way he was able to capture Jae Won and display a character with trauma and depression is top tier acting. Not once did his performance fall flat. And together their chemistry!?!?!?!?! Yea overall it’s something new and fresh and you should watch it because I have superior taste when it comes to dramas and if I say it’s good then the source is trust me bro. Watch it.

Watch it DUH

I was in fact completely consumed by this show. The scenery, the acting, the storyline is just giving. I remember the agony of waiting for the next episode and when there was the last episode left and how I felt unhinged. I feel like this series probably should have been at least a 7 or 8 episode series to fully flesh out their problems but nevertheless I wasn’t disappointed. You know though what they say “ all good things must come to an end.” What heartlessness person ever came up with that? Nah I say we continue until we can’t no more. Anyways I love a good ole quiet BL. I still can’t get over how good looking Suzuki Kosuke has gotten since Takara-kun to Amagi-Kun

Quick watch you should watch.

Honestly people are being way too harsh on this drama. The acting was really good compared to many dramas I watched. Yes the recaps could’ve been shorter and yes it felt a little fast paced but when the budget is only so much then that means the drama is also gonna be so much. Many people didn’t like the ending which honestly I’m not sure why. Yes there could’ve been maybe one more scene to solidify it but the ending left us feeling optimistic. It is insinuating that they’ll restart their story over but with more of a solid future. Overall the main leads were great and so was their chemistry. You can’t please everyone.
