i have some spoilers
okay so i did like itspoilerssss
though the ending was not really good.....like yk the guy just dies at the end because he didn't want to drink choi's blood for the fear of hurting him...but mannnn Choi coul have used something to make a tiny cut on his finger then he could have offered his blood to junho this way junho wouldn't actually harm him right...but no Choi didn't do that i mean if it were me i would have at least tried something....but still I didn't like the ending but it's not like it was not suitable...I'm giving this a 9 but not because of the ending but because I think that everything was a little fast paced....like it it was not so fast paced i definitely would've given it a 10..

Watch only if you are die hard fan of vampires
Will contain slight spoilers.Never had I expected a vampire series to be so full of...light. Like literally. The amount of dreamy light this series have idk how it the vampires are even immune to it.
There are plot holes, enough for you to trip and fall.
The storyline is just a cutesy BL series with a vampire trope. I skipped to episode 8 straight from episode 4.
The acting is sweet, they did their best.
The story had potential. The script needed to be a bit more tight and strong.

Good chem, mid story
The two leads are charming and have good chemistry, as I've also seen them with the same level of chemistry in "Roommates of Poongduck 304". The story is very expected, cliche however the series isn't very long so I'd say it's still an enjoyable watch purely off of the actors performances. If you want a better BL with the same level of acting but a more fleshed out storyline I'd definitely say watch Roomates of Poongduck, however Kissable lips is still a nice bite size drama.Was this review helpful to you?

Kim Ji Woong blowing his back out in Braille
How did they even get freaky if he can’t see? Genuine question. Uh, anyway, this show was okay, and the ending was mid but more of a lesson learned kind of thing. Yeah, I would give it a 7.5 (8.06) out of 10. Now I am going to say what I liked, what I didn’t, and then an episode overview.Kim Ji Woong might be one of the SEXIEST MEN TO EVER WALK THE PLANET. He is such a joy to look at and such an acquired beauty. Both of them are good actors, and they have decent chemistry for what this is. The show is OKAY, I will give them that. Like, it's not bad, but it's also not the best thing I have ever seen. I think the plot is interesting, but it did fall short in some parts. Uh, yeah, I don't know, something about this show was addicting. I liked the brother, and I don't know why. The guy that Kim Ji Woong killed first, I liked that point line, that was fun. I think the setup was good. Uh, yeah, that is it.
What the fuck does dispiate mean? Like we just turn to fucking ash, like what the hell? That whole plot was bullshit. Also, WE DO NOT KNOW HOW TO WRITE ROMANCE PLOTS AND ROMANCE BUILDING. Like we were doing well for a bit, and then it went all the way downhill. Irrelevant ass side character, every last one of them, besides the brother, shut your dumb ass up, you guys are making me mad. The mom, or whatever the lady was, suck up everything, just made the plot go further backwards. INTRODUCED THAT GUY AND THEN JUST CHOKED HIM OUT AND KILLED HIM. BITCH WHO EVEN WAS THAT? SHUT UPPPPP. Yeah, also the plot kind fell off at the end, and I don't hate the ending, I think it is kind of mid, but mid leaning more towards bad. I am fine with him dying at the end, but I wish they had done that a little better. Like, oh no, he went up to the rooftop and then just fucking disintegrated. I feel like we could have written that out better. AND FINALLY, the whole thing with him going blind. He was blind the entire show, but the writers lowkey forgot about that because he was doing way too much considering he can't see lmao. Only at the end was it relevant, and even then, he still got to the top of the roof unscathed, but he can't pick up a stupid fucking ring. Uh, that's it.
My overview time and the reviews are terrible because I was watching this in class. "I AM HERE FOR Kim Ji Woong. YOU ARE HERE FOR Kim Ji Woong. WE ARE ALL HERE FOR Kim Ji Woong. I CAN EXCUSE THE BAD PLOT FOR Kim Ji Woong. Yeah, good setup." "THE BLUE EYES ARE SO FUNNY. If it came out that vampires are real, Kim Ji Woong and Ricky would be at the top of my list. Slow romance building with mal intent, good, good. I am sobbing, the eyes are cock blocking my shit." "Actual lore, but I need more context. They both have sexy eyes. He likes the idea of what he will become by liking him, but actually him." "He obviously regrets what he did, so why is he doing it again?" "Human boy jumping the gun and the fact that he knows he is a vampire and still falling for him is human stupidity." "Who even is this random ass guy? I am lowkey confused, and the romance building is now out of the window. Uh okay. We have a plot, though, which is nice." "The show is low-key, really interesting, and I don’t know why. Maybe it’s because the love of my life is in here and everything is interesting when he’s on screen." "Also, we need a little bit more romance building. In this case, there’s no way we just kiss." "I have genuinely no feelings about this episode, like what is this like a lesson of life that everything is temporary, or if you lose Kim Ji Woong, you just start fucking crying and hallucinating, like what is the moral here? I’m so lost. Also, how did they get freaked out if he’s blind? Did he look fucking blew his back out in braile? I’m so confused."
Uh, a skippable show, but if you want to see THE SEXY KIM JI WOONG, DEFINITELY WATCH IT. Okay bye!

Give it a second watch, it's better
Long story short, watching it the first time I was confused and I didn't like it. However, watching it again (over 2 years later), the show is actually quite entertaining. When you watch it the second time after knowing the story, it's more pleasant to watch. The acting is good and there are more emotions. Watch it a second time and you might like it more!Was this review helpful to you?
why
I was so excited about this drama and now I wish I’d checked the reviews first. why did he just drink the blood, I feel like my heart and been ripped out of my chest and just stomped on. WTF ugh, the story was great but I want to know what the hell was the writer of this drama thinking. I been bawling my eyes for almost 30 minutes now and feel like I need to cry even more. I had high hopes and was so happy, and then bam sadness and heart break. I’m to emotion for this mess, I really do love it, but I can’t handle the heartbreak.Was this review helpful to you?
A VERY "SAD" STORY
The main leads are the same with Roommates at Poongduck 304. I watched this because Roommates at Poongduck 304 is one of my favorite BL dramas. I have low expectations because this is their first series as main leads together. But after watching this, it seems that they really have the chemistry since the beginning. Although their acting in the early episodes is quite dissatisfactory, they got better and better until the end.A very sad story??? Why?? It is because the story is rushed.

if you don’t like sad endings don’t watch
The show was so good until it came to the ending. I really wasn’t expecting a sad ending. After he died I was hoping he would come back because they even had leeway of him being a vampire. Up until the ending it was good. The ending really affected my rating I would have rated it better if it didn’t end the way it did. Wish they made a season 2 where it showed he wasn’t dead. The actors also deserve another series together they were very cute. The acting was very good it’s really sad that I had to rate it so low because of the ending.Was this review helpful to you?
The actors did their best.
The pacing was terrible, I was lost so many times that I had to go back and re-watch a few episodes cause it always felt like I missed something?
This felt like one of those "plot what plot" fics but with nothing intriguing to keep you hooked. What remained of the plot was all over the place (I don't know who decided on them blue eyes cause yikes.)
The threw in characters I was supposed to pity but without enough background to pull at any emotions.
The actors though, they gave it their all. You could see they really tried their best to deliver.
Overall, so much potential, zero on execution.

Just bad filmmaking
I wanted to like it. The premise is interesting enough, it's a BL with vampires, and it has decent photography. Unfortunately, the absolute lack of pacing, setup, or cohesive story dooms it to failure. It's a BL, but it almost wholesale skips the "falling in love" part. You get a few seconds of filming an awkward school project, a few seconds playing basketball, and now they are star-crossed lovers. What?? How did that happen?The editing is sloppy and plot devices are established and then seemingly abandoned out of forgetfulness. For example, a big point is made about the ultra-protective older brother who monitors his sibling's every move after past tragedy. But right after he actually catches his brother seemingly moments from being killed by a vampire (his greatest fear), he gives up on all that protectiveness after the slightest bit of protest and we essentially never see the character again. Uhh? Completely implausible. Why even include this in the plot if it wasn't going anywhere?
We see the President character several times, but she has essentially no impact on the plot at any time, except for calling up other vamp. We see her harvesting blood from herself, but it's never shown being used. Why was she even in this show? It feels like a few crucial scenes with her were omitted.
It's a small thing, but I don't understand the "hideout" room... it seems like a bedroom, it has personal possessions, it's private, they sleep together in there, but it's also seemingly open to the public and people can just barge in whenever.
Also, why is a vampire spending decades enrolled at a university posing as a student? I can suspend a lot of disbelief, but surely after his 20th year or so as a freshman, somebody would notice that he hasn't graduated (or aged)? And he really sits through film history 101 every day for decades on end just in the hopes he can get an occasional bit of student blood? He must be the world's preeminent expert on Mappelthorpe by now.
TL;DR: It's a sloppy show that lacks soul or exposition where stuff just happens for no reason and not much makes any sense. I kept rewinding thinking my brain or the stream stuttered as it lurched from scene to scene without any connection, but it's just bad filmmaking.

I liked it!
It was a nice drama, beautiful visuals and music.I liked the story, but i would have liked to see more about how they fell in love. That felt too rushed and short.
And i also would have liked to see more about the story of Jun Ho / Kwon Hae Soo and Jun Ho / Do Hyun.
The actors did a great job and there was great chemistry between the leads.
I may watch this again in the future.
