Sweet and goofy

Lovely, sweet and warm short film :)

Can be made into a full length series :)
Need more of them :)

Their acting is very natural.
Their characters are so goofy and are playful lovers in their early 20s .

Guess, some of the famous KDrama actors, did act in a BL, in their younger years.
Recently found Nam Gil's and surprised 😂

Cunty sweet gay musical/short film

I don’t have much to say about this since its so short but this movie is so far ahead of its time and I know i’m not the first one to say that about this short film.

I knew Lee Jehoon was in this movie but I didn’t know Yeon Woojin was in it. Two popular Kdrama actors in an LGBT movie.

I understand how much significance their small roles could’ve made for a conservative Korea at the time, and this made me view the actors differently. I genuinely hope they start opening up to lgbt shows with popular kdrama actors from now on.

Even in 2025 they keep censoring gay relationships (especially lesbian). Can’t believe they haven’t progressed much even after this banger dropped!

Though it was lowkey surreal lol I didn’t know what was happening during those singing montages but it was sweet. I’m glad the couple ended up together despite being caught. Very cute and quick watch.

Currently, out of all the BL films that I've watched. This one is the best and realest of them all. I don't know but maybe it's rather a Gay film than BL cause it's seriously just about the struggles of gay relationship that is closeted then gaining confidence to go out. It's a simple film theme but the MLs performance were so *chefs kiss* good that it made it better, the interactions and passionate scenes felt so real, like a gay couple is doing things on their daily life and I get to watch it.
It also touches on relationships clashing with sexuality :( like if you're late into finding out about it and you're in a relationship, that's gotta hurt for the other one. So lesson learned, don't be in a relationship until you find out about your sexuality.

Very open korean film

A solid and for 2009 very open Korean film with physical contact between two young men making love. The film was made with a sense of perspective and sometimes even comically, and it will certainly attract the viewer. Even around the 23 minute mark, the next CO song wasn't too bad and made me smile at the cute Asian naivety. But every viewer will surely understand why the filmmakers made this film, and for that they deserve a lot of thanks.

surpreendente bom

estou fascinado na maneira que esse daqui se desenrolou. 30 minutos foram suficientes para se apegar ao casal principal e torcer para que tudo dê certo com eles. muito bonita a forma como o afeto entre os dois é construída, com toques simbólicos, olhares demorado e lindos (lindos) beijos.

queria muito entender o que aconteceu de 2009 pra cá que essa ferocidade praticamente se perdeu nos bls.

p.s. a parte das músicas me pegou total de surpresa, completamente aleatório mas mto funny
