Lost in Dramaland
Good general plot and leads chemistry but poor editing
Subjective Gut Rating - 7.75
I quite like this more mature plot in a BL drama. Our leads both have a hidden identity yet they couldn't help falling in love with each other while being suck in between two gangs' rivalry.
The leads have good chemistry and their acting is pretty good for a low budget, web drama. Both actors have gone on to more mainstream dramas but this is one of their first earlier projects. Considering they were not very experienced then, I am quite happy with their acting. It's also nice to see a Korean BL with decent kisses and skin ship. Since the drama is so short, the romance develops rather quickly and their one big conflict is resolved very quickly as well. It also has one of the funniest first make out session I've seen in a drama.
Unfortunately, the drama consists of 5 very short episodes and the editing comes off as disjointed. If this is a movie, the editing might be a little better. However, even scenes within the same episode are weird and the transitions are not well done. Additionally, I am still a little confused about the gang rivalry. Aren't they fighting for a club? Why did the bald guy suddenly remove himself at the end when he wanted to kill the Flying Dagger? On a positive not, there are a few really good fight scenes, better than some I've seen in a regular TV production.
The relationship between the Flying Dagger and his father is quite tragic. It's unfortunate that an abused kid was fostered by such a predator. A few of these scenes could be triggering for some. But in contrast, viewers are comforted by the warmth of Gi Tae's sister.
