News If edging was a show…this would be it.
Someone said ‘if edging was a show…this would be it’ and I could not agree more. This was a good watch but it didn’t hit the spot for me. It had so much potential but I can’t help but feel like something was missing. I can’t put my finger on it but it felt very bland. Although the cast did a good job with what they had. And the production was good.Honestly do not know why, but I expected more.

Sweet and heartwarming with one of the best BL scenes of all time (spoiler at the bottom!!)
I've probably rewatched Unintentional Love Story three times now. I just rewatched it again recently after watching The Time of Fever spin-off (and LOVING it).ULS is sweet and adorable. The acting might not be Oscar-worthy, but it's still so good and so heartwarming. I thought the casting was great—the main couple offers a great balance of the cold, stoic guy paired with the bright, naive guy. It's a light yet candid love story that won't break your heart. The music is also really pleasant and the B couple is super captivating (watch Time of Fever if you haven't yet).
*SPOILER COMING! Stop reading here if you haven't seen the drama yet*
***SPOILER: One of the best scenes I have ever seen in a BL is this soft moment between Wonyoung and Taejoon: TJ asks WY to use him as much as possible, and WY responds "I'm not gonna use you. I'm gonna love you instead." Every single time I rewatch that scene, I cry. It's so authentic and tender! There are very few moments of true love in current KBL drama canon that make me stop in my tracks like that moment. ***

not a bit boring
Despite the slow pace and plain action, this drama is not boring at all, being so beautifully filmed. The actors are handsome and the acting is flawless, no more no less than it should be. Though nothing spectacular happens here, its quite pleasant to watch. This drama falls under a tag that must be created asap, that is "falling in love after approaching someone with ulterior motive and repenting".My only objection is that the last episodes took the quarrel too far... Why take it to a point of no return?
I might rewatch this sunny story one day.

A true gem of a romcom
This one became an instant classic for me, it's just that good.To me this show is everything a romcom could and should be - the characters are believable and likable, the plot is compelling but does not take away from the romance, the pacing is well thought-out, and the romantic tension builds at a perfect speed.
But more than that this story has a deep understanding of not just its characters, but what being human means at large.
The characters are all vastly different personalities with their own unique charms and dynamics, but also each with their own unique set of flaws. They feel like real, actual people, and it is in that grounding connection to reality that the show really shines.
It makes the audience question things like "How do you deal with your life suddenly changing and starting down a path you never expected?", "What does loving someone really mean?", "How much are you letting the past control your current life?", and "What does forgiveness mean and whom exactly does it benefit?"
The show tells its story perfectly beat for beat and pulls the audience along on a ride that is in turns fun, emotional, captivating, and absolutely joyous. Add to that the lovely visuals, solid editing, and good music and you get a romantic drama par excellence.
I honestly can't think of any reason not to watch this show, I genuinely and wholeheartedly recommend it to any- and everyone. Go watch it already.

O romance que muitos tentam, mas poucos conseguem criar.
Definitivamente um dos meus BLs coreanos favoritos. Do começo ao fim: espetacular. É basicamente impossível não se ver totalmente envolvido com essas personagens e suas lutas. Além disso, a química do casal é incrível.Mais feliz ainda fico em saber que o casal secundário terá um Spin-Off em breve.
Do roteiro ao elenc, à trilha sonora, à fotografia, ao desenvolvimento e ao desfecho: obra de arte.
Não é livre de falhas, claro. Acredito que nenhum BL seja, mas este aqui consegue compensar tudo e, no geral, é um dos melhor BLs que já saíram da Coreia do Sul.

new review
I wrote a review before finishing and now need to change my voting and thoughts. I still have a problem with the lead character's mercenary and and opportunitisic bent as written. But the cast is good and eventually I fell for the couple and although no writing that really makes it okay or even sensible, the story is a nice journey.Production values are top notch and its a nice ride. Wish I could buy that pottery!Was this review helpful to you?
prequel was so much better
I guess since I read the source material this was disappointing in comparison. story felt either disorganized or boring throughout the show when it was very engaging in the webtoon unfortunately. the prequel that followed was not flimsy like this and the production value increased as well in my opinionWas this review helpful to you?

Une pépite ! Un trésor caché !
Ce drama place la barre très haut. J'ai été surprise de la moyenne générale qu'il a reçu car il mérite mieux.Premièrement, la bande originale de ce BL est extraordinaire ! Dès l'instant où je l'ai entendue, j'ai commencé à l'écouter en boucle (Traffic Accident de Dann et MUJIN).
Deuxièmement, l'histoire est très bien écrite et parfaitement interprétée par les acteurs. Comparée aux autres BL existants, je l'ai trouvée différente et rafraîchissante, notamment par rapport aux décisions prises par Wonyoung ainsi que leurs conséquences dans leur futur. Rien n'est enfantin, mais au contraire, très mature, réfléchi et pensé. Les deux protagonistes sont deux adultes qui agissent comme tels et qui font face à leurs sentiments de manière différente. L'intrigue est parfaite et au fil du drama, on s'attache très vite aux personnages et on assiste le cœur battant à l'évolution de la nature des sentiments de Wonyoung envers Taejun.
Je sais que certaines personnes ne sont pas fan des "fake kiss" (faux baisers) et ont donc été frustrées par certaines scènes dans ce drama, mais je vous rassure, cela n'enlève en rien la qualité de l'histoire et de l'intrigue.
Ce drama fait sans aucun doute partie de mon Top5 de BL coréens de par la maturité des personnages et de l'intrigue, mais aussi de sa simplicité.

Uno dei bl coreani più belli visti fino ad ora!
Dolce, delicato e con una giusta dose di angst, Unintentional love story mi ha letteralmente rubato il cuore.Non c’è nulla da fare, i coreani hanno una marcia in più nel raccontare storie , di qualsiasi tipo esse siano. E qui il tocco magico dei coreani si evince fin dalle prime scene e dalle prime battute.
Trama: semplice ma di impatto; sviluppata benissimo con nulla lasciato al caso.
Cast: tutti eccezionali, tutto ben calati nei rispettivi ruoli e tutti i loro personaggi di spessore. Ma il mio applauso va ai due protagonisti che, con i loro sguardi e i loro abbracci, mi hanno scaldato il cuore è fatta emozionare tantissimo.
Ost: tutte meravigliose e perfette per la storia.
A chi ama i bl e ancora non ha visto questo vi dò un consiglio: guardatelo perché vi ruberà il cuore.

10/10 One of the most recent outstanding bl drama released
This is probably one of my current favourite bl drama along with the other dramas that are currently airing at the moment. This one has more episodes than the other dramas but I actually prefer it more than short ones (short eps) just cause it is slow burn yet engaging viewers. It doesn't feel rushed and every scene is something that is memorable which makes a good build-up for each upcoming episodes.Another thing 1 want to mention is the amazing chemistry of both pairs in the drama. They all are very good at their roles and they are also very captivating with their outstanding acting skills. I am very attached mainly to the main characters but 1 always get excited whenever the 2nd pair shows up too haha. The OST is FANTASTIC-- and I mean like I really wanna compliment it but I can't come up with the right words. Overall, this bl drama is very beautifully produced and delivered. There is so much impact in this.
Good job to everyone who worked on this drama. *Claps*

Muhteşem bir kdraması
Diziyi izlemek insanın içini ısıtıyor. Gereksiz konu sapmalarından uzak gereksiz kavgalardan kıskançlıklardan uzak size ne vermek istiyorsa doğrudan o mesajı veren harika bir dizi olmuş. Bir diziden ne bekliyorsam ben bütün beklentilerimi karşıladım . Harika dizi müzikleri görseller oyunculuk hepsine puanım 10..Bazı izleyenler tatmin olmamış olabilir yeteri kadar öpüşme sahnesi olmadığı için ya da cinsellik ama bana göre öpüşme sahnesinin verebileceği bütün hissiyatı el ele tutuşmalarından ve sarılmalarından fazlasıyla aldım. Dizi tamamen duygulara hitap ediyor cinselliklere değil. Diziyi bence güzel yapan tarafı da oydu. Normal bir kdraması izledim tek farkı baş rolün ikisi de erkekti.
Muhteşem müziklerle muhteşem bir dizi izlemek istiyorsanız şiddetle tavsiye ederim oyunculuklar da muazzamdı…
