Best Korean Boys Love
I really like this drama, especially the chemistry of the good and handsome main cast, for the story and visuals of this drama is very good, and for the kiss scene to be so real it makes me enjoy this drama so much. And the way of shooting is so good plus extraordinary cinematic. Perhaps the shortcomings of Korean Boys Love are only the lack of additional duration and episodes that are so short 8 episodes. I hope there is a 2nd season for this love for love's sake drama. I repeated watching this drama so good.Was this review helpful to you?
LFLS the best
I really enjoyed this drama. Because of visaul and also a good story. For the main actor himself, it is very good to animate the character of this drama. Even for kissing scenes they are very natural. In episodes 7 and 8 I was very moved from their story And very satisfied and happy with the extraordinary ending, for that I had difficulty move on from this drama. For Korean boys love LFLS this is really the best for me. And I hope this can be a continuation of the story of season 2 of this LFLS drama with this cast that is so amazing. And the lack of all KBL is only from a short duration and episodes that are only 8 episodes. I hope to enjoy a long duration and quite long episodes as well. Thanks.Was this review helpful to you?
Screaming and Crying
One of the very few BLs to actually have me extremely emotional and straight up sob at any given notice. The initial episode already hooks you in with the gimmick of the MC being inside of a game. Extremely unique and I found the dating simulator aspect of this BL to be really fun and engaging. And without spoiling the show, the twist at the end with this exact gimmick is done so well and really tugs on the heart strings. I also don't really want to say much else since I truly do think every BL fan should dive into this BL head first and completely blind.Was this review helpful to you?
A great starter for 2024!
Give kbls enough budget and a good writer then we can have this kind of masterpiece again in the future. Also, let’s normalize casting mainstream actors to play in bls bc they know what they’re doing i mean look at lee taevin?? Nothing against nugu idols or rookie actors, they can still be casted and they’re the backbones of kbls but having mainstream actors in this makes so much difference.As for the series itself, i found it really interesting, a romance fantasy genre that works really well without having to look lame and cheap in execution? Who would have thought! Japanese bls are usually the experts in this area but i can see the future for kbls to excel in this kind of genre too, just give them enough budget and good writing also good actors if it’s not too much to ask for.

So good that made me believe love is actually real
I'm not kidding when I say this is the best kbl I have watched, it's beautiful, interesting, funny, dramatic, it has ALL.The main characters have such a great story and chemistry and you see it since the first interaction, they're so cute and funny.
I knew taevin thanks to penthouse so I already knew that his acting was not joke, but seeing him with a totally different role was crazy, I loved it.
This is my first time watching Joowan and he's amazing too, I really loved his expressions and I just feel like everyone was cast perfectly for their characters. They did such a great job, everything was just so smooth and natural.
The story is amazing, five minutes into the fisrt episode and I was so immersed. Even if the drama is kind of short, the story doesn't feel rushed. One of the things I love more about the story is the plot twist, is so good and there's no word to describe how I felt when I was watching it. Also, angst was so good that I cried the whole scene, paused and took a five minute break to continue.
The shots are beautiful, the editing is mindblowing, ost perfect for each scene and situation. Really, the best kbl I have watched.

LOVED IT !
Finally we have a BL with more than 30min eps after so long !This one is really good. You might think it’s some fluffy romance but no ! It isn’t !
It deals with grieving, suicide attempt (at the beginning), being rich, poor and their disadvantages. I love the idea and the concept of series, they are sooo good and I love how it’s giving and not giving love alarm at the same time lol !
Btw lying about knowing a dead person like myung ha did is actually crazy but we gonna ignore it bruh… 💀
To get back to my review on this series, the cast in itself and the cinematography are really so good !
Episode 7 is my fav so far ! I had my eyes bawling the whole episode and its ending ugh 🥹
About the characters, I loved them ALL. The quatuor of boys : myung ha, yeo woon, sang won and the other friend, AND the side characters, like the girls !
Now to end this, shoutout to sang won. He is my fav character so far, he has an actual lore (with his mother abandonning him kinda, to pursue money instead), him having a crush on myung ha and trying to get his attention, although the other litteraly continously ignored him 😭💀.
I mean my second lead syndrome might be playing a part in this BUT still ! Myung ha never actually care about him in my opinion and that was always clear. Like okay maybe at the beginning he was being ´weird ´ (not really) but even after, when he was genuinely nice to him, myung ha never ever took the time to get to know him at least 😭. Like bro it won’t mean you reciprocate his feelings or whatsoever just because you are talking to him ! 💀

A Game Changer in the KBL Industry
This drama absolutely blew my mind. At first, I just found it on this website on accident, then I see that it's adapted from a manhwa I'm currently reading! Seeing the high ranking and good reviews, I decided to give it a try. It didn't disappoint. First time ever I see a KBL with both a good plot and good chemistry between actors. Usually dramas are lacking in one of those, which ruins the watching experience. As for the acting, the actors did so well! I was sad when they were sad, and happy when they were happy. As a plus, both of the main actors have extremely cute smiles, it brightened up my day! Honestly, this really made it way better. Also, the actor playing "Tae Myungha" really reminds me of the Thai actor "Mix" when he smiles haha.tl;dr,
Drama has a good plot. good acting and amazing production. Anyone who watches BL drama regularly or doesn't should try to watch it, I urge you^^ It's biggest flaw it being too short!

Deals with mental health issues.
The main topic of this series I think is about someone dealing with depression and instead of concentrating on helping themself they focus on helping others which I think is very common in people with mental health disorders. This show showed a refreshing take on what it's like to deal with mental problems and how a lot of the time people with MH issues tend to ignore themselves because it's easier than dealing with the problem.I think the actors portrayed their characters wonderfully and while some parts of the show happened really quickly I think the show had an amazing story. This show is definitely one of my favorites and a definite recommendation. The feelings of cuteness and fluff added to the sad and heartbreaking makes this show worth watching. I do wish the episodes were longer or there was more than 8 episodes however I think the story ended perfectly.

THIS IS A MUST WATCH!!!
This is a MUST watch ok. I kept seeing it on tik tok and stuff and i was like i gotta watch this and i finished it. It is so sad but so good at the same time. This is one that i would definitely rewatch again and again and again without getting tired of it. The plot is amazing but confusing. You will understand when you reach the end of the series, but both of the main leads are so good at acting. I just can't with it and I'm gonna go and cry myself to bed because I dont have a golden retriever boyfriend!But if anyone does read this comment or review please help yourself and watch it! It's so good you won't regret it!

That good good hurt/comfort type beat
Having trouble putting my feelings and thoughts into words for this one tbh in a good way though for sure for sure.Production/Cinematography:
They killed that fr. It was amazing, I don’t typically comment on this aspect of a drama unless it’s noteworthy, and it definitely is in this case. Really captivating.
Acting:
No notes, so good what the hell. Lee Tae Vin and Cha Joo Wan really had me going through that roller coaster with them. Everyone else in the cast did amazing too, really great performances all around. Protect Cha Yeo Woon forever, that little happy wave and jog he does when he sees Tae Myung Ha had me giggling fr.
Writing:
Haven’t read the webtoon, so I’m not sure how it shapes up as an adaptation. That being said, the story in the drama was so good. Despite the fact that I ended up predicting a decent bit of the story, it still impacted me like I hadn’t even tried to do so. Everything up until that last bit at the end was super easy to follow and understand but like I enjoyed the story so much idc if I left a little confused lol. Part of me does like to idea of a bittersweet ending instead, but most of me will die without a happy one, so I am content knowing that my boys are happy.
Chemistry/Romance/Kissing:
Chemistry was clear and present. Definitely a good romance story. Kissing was fitting and realistic/believable. Great work from the actors/writers/directors.
Music/SFX:
No notes at all. Didn’t even have that cheesy drama bs where they put in a loud corny song with lyrics spelling out the feelings of the characters lmaoo. So 10/10. SFX were perfect too.
Damn… this was a treat. Definitely writing this review with swollen eyes rn but that’s my business. Some seriously good work all around here, damn damn damn.

Acting !!
All I can say is that Lee Tae Vin is just so mesmerising. The plot itself was solid but what truly made me fall in love with the series was the acting and the cinematography, especially in episode 8. The sea scene in episode 8 is truly so beautiful that I cry every time I see it. Although it seems like a easygoing series it is so much more than that. Once again, lee tae vins performance was just amazing , loved it.Was this review helpful to you?
