I'm currently obsessed with this drama great cinematography great acting and handsome actors

I loved the characters so much and the actors acting was so good as someone who has insomnia my self i connected to dongwoo easily however i still don't understand why he left do hyun in high school. Do hyun is the cutest character ever he was so shy and cute around dong wook and u can clearly see that he was deeply in love with him. Their first kiss was adorable and well done. This drama is so cute and relaxing i keep watching it nonstop however there were some things that i didnt understand like the infirmary scene and some of dong wook's actions and the last episode felt so short i wish they showed us more of their dating life

Based off my personal rating criteria specifically made for BLs

1. Characters 9/10
- I feel that for short series such as these, it is obligatory for me to acknowledge the lack of time for characterisation
+ However, I feel that this was thoroughly overcome by the amazing job they did in making every frame count. So much characterisation was achieved without dialogue that it felt like I did know the characters at the end

2. Shipability 10/10
+ I typically do not enjoy enemies to lovers but even in their initial fighting stage, the attraction and tension could be felt
+ The on-screen chemistry really felt impeccable. Every time they were together it truly felt like I was looking at 2 people in love

3. Plot 9/10
- I did not particularly enjoy the misunderstanding troupe that occurred during the dinner stage
+ I do feel that they did a fantastic job weaving in the flashbacks in a manner that gave us information when we needed it but always making us curious to know more
+ I also enjoyed how they made the idea of Dohyun being Dongwook's insomnia cure work. I feel that if they had made this a soulmate kind of scenario it would have needed a lot of explaining. The lack of explanation actually helped in moving the story along in a more natural manner.

Cute little story

This is such an amazing show, I absolutely loved it, no unnecessary drama between the main leads by outside factors but their own insecurities that made sense and the chemistry between the leads were so good. The side characters did a very well also. The cinematography, the pacing, acting evrythng was so on point, I guess the budget was good. And I liked that they actually played the sport they were showing very well not like the flashes and camera angles to make it look good ('coughs' thai bl) .

My opinion on the BL

I did'nt have much expectations for this BL but woah. Korean BL's really never dissapoint me, especially this one. It was super cute and the actors did a good job. Everything was really good in my opinion and it has probably become my comfort BL. I definetly recommend you to watch it because the story is amazing and wouldn't get you bored, atleast I did'nt get bored. Since I have to write 500 words I'll say one thing I did'nt like. The one thing that I did'nt like is that there were only 8 episodes and I got kind of sad when it ended. It's perfect for people that love binge watching series or don't have that much time. The main thing I liked in this series must be the camera work and the scenes (And of course the story). It was beautiful how they standed in the rain and everything.
Apologies if this is a bad review because it's my first time writing a review on this app and I really enjoyed the series so I don't have anything bad to point out.
I hope you decide to watch it, enjoy.

Petit coup de cœur pour cette brise légère à la saison des pluies !

A Breeze of Love me fait penser à ces histoires d’amour qui n’ont pas nécessairement besoin d’explications. Elles existent avec sincérité et simplicité, et elles n’ont pas besoin de plus.

Sur le papier, l’histoire n’est pas si originale. Deux amis de lycée se séparent et se retrouvent cinq ans plus tard avec quelques pointes de rancœur. L’histoire des amis partageant des sentiments, mais refusant de l’avouer est assez classique. La différence est dans la façon dont les choses vont s’entrecroiser. Malgré sa lenteur, A Breeze of Love est pour moi une petite douceur dans laquelle j’ai aimé me perdre au point d’ignorer ses quelques défauts.

Tout d’abord, les personnages. Ils ne sont pas parfaits. Par exemple, on sait que très peu de choses sur Do Hyun. Il aime le basket et garde une rancune bien tenace envers Dong Wook. De l’autre côté, on nous explique rapidement que Dong Wook souffre d’insomnies sévères et que la présence de Do Hyun est une pilule magique, car il lui permet de dormir. Et c’est à peu près tout. L’histoire ne s’attarde pas sur les détails de l’un et l’autre, préférant axer son énergie sur leur passé commun et le présent.

Leur relation rencontre beaucoup de non-dits, mais sans devenir dramatique pour un mot de travers. Au contraire, Dong Wook communique, tandis que Do Hyun, plus pudique, l’écoute et agit par la suite. La dynamique du duo est intéressante de bien des façons avec, en prime, une bonne alchimie. Elle est en accord avec l’ambiance du drame, à savoir de la douceur et une touche de retenue.

L’histoire s’alterne entre le présent et le passé. On découvre comment ils sont devenus proches et comment ils se sont séparés. C’est frais et on ne perd jamais cette douceur qui semble entourer ce drama (et cette relation). Leur dynamique n’a pas tellement changé, bien qu’au début, elle puisse faire quelques étincelles. Néanmoins, mon reproche serait sur le fait que la relation ne prend vie qu’au dernier épisode. Si la romance est palpable tout du long, la relation se concrétise au dernier épisode. Donc la romance existe, mais la relation n’a pas le temps de commencer qu’on est déjà sur un générique de fin, c’est mon seul vrai regret.

La photographie est sublime. Les scènes sont superbes avec de très belles lumières tandis que la pluie vient peaufiner l’ensemble. D’ailleurs, c’est en ce point que j’apprécie les petites productions qui font toujours en sorte de donner autant qu’elles peuvent. D’une façon plus globale, les KBL possèdent de bonnes choses, mais ils souffrent d’un format ridiculement court. Nous sommes sur 8 épisodes d’une moyenne de 17 minutes (génériques inclus) ce qui laisse peu de place à un développement poussé. Pour cette raison, la relation en souffre, car elle aurait mérité au minimum un épisode supplémentaire pour voir Dong Wook et Do Hyun évoluer en tant que couple. Les quelques scènes, ici et là, sont agréables, mais insuffisantes pour une romance.

Bref ! C’est un petit coup de cœur pour A Breeze of Love avec son histoire facile et honnête qui rappelle que l'amour n'est pas toujours un parcours du combattant.

Entregou pouco

Bem, essa não é uma das minhas séries favoritas, mas também não está entre as piores.

Roteiro: o plot não faz sentido. Os dois protagonistas já se conheciam desde a escola, e voltam a se encontrar na universidade, no primeiro momento de forma pouco amistosa. Ban Dong Wook sofre de insônia crônica, e descobre que magicamente consegue dormir se estiver com Do Hyun. Eu realmente gostaria que fosse melhor explicado o motivo dessa insônia, bem como o porquê dela sumir quando está perto da pessoa amada, digo isso pq no último EP ele confessa que estava apaixonado desde a escola. A história é totalmente centrada nos dois protagonistas, não existem histórias paralelas, famílias, ex voltando do além. As únicas pessoas que tem alguma relevância são os amigos, e mesmo assim eles tem uma boa relação. Não existe um vilão, cheguei até a pensar que existiria um triângulo amoroso, mas o único conflito que vem à tona antes do final, é Do Hyun descobrir que seu amado gosta de estar com ele pq consegue dormir, e se sentir frustrado, enganado, muito embora até esse momento ele não tenha demonstrado nenhum sentimento.

Quando eles conseguiram ficar juntos, foi bom ver finalmente Do Hyun com o rosto sorridente, já que ficou inexpressivo a série inteira. Isso não comprometeu sua atuação, mas passou a imagem de alguém chato demais. Os flashbacks também apareciam do nada, e às vezes eu fiquei um pouco confusa sobre o que era presente ou passado. E minha última crítica é sobre a construção do relacionamento. Parece que o tempo de tela era muito curto, e só no último EP a história se resolve, Do Hyun passou 7 capítulos apenas tentando fugir ou ignorar Ban Dong Wook, e literalmente do nada vai de 0 a 100. Inclusive, no presente, todos os diálogos entre os protagonistas eram vagos e sem nenhum conteúdo importante, a contrução da história do amor deixou muito a desejar.

Os aspectos técnicos estão de parabéns, a ost é linda, cenografia, fotografia, tudo funciona com muita qualidade.

Enfim, não voltarei a assistir, mas gostei da série, apesar das falhas e com certeza recomendo.

everyone absolutely needs to watch it

I’ve watched all the Korean BLs, but none have touched me the way this one did. Everything was so beautiful—I was captivated by every single scene.
I’ve always loved simple, realistic stories without exaggerated drama, and A Breeze of Love delivered that perfectly.
It breaks my heart that it’s so underrated. I wish I could make the whole world watch them.

The cinematography, the acting, the breathtaking chemistry between the couple, the warmth of the story—they all wrapped around me like a soft embrace.
Everything felt so right. For a Korean BL, they managed to fit the story beautifully into the episode lengths.
I genuinely don’t understand the ones who didn’t like it or thought it was lacking. Even if the story was simple, the way it was told and the raw sincerity of the couple made it perfect.

There was a poetic soul in it. I fell in love with Dongwook’s words:
‘I’m glad the person I saw when I woke up from a beautiful sleep was you.’
‘Whether it’s my sleepless nights or my rain-like love, you are the answer to all my problems, Dohyun.’
These lines felt so warm and real, I completely lost myself in them.

The way they looked at each other was pure magic—I found myself lost in their gaze.
Even now, I keep rewatching it. I miss them so much that I run back to them over and over.

If you’re looking for something warm, comforting, peaceful—a story where love can be felt in just a single look—this is the one.
I love them with all my heart. They’ll always be in the number one spot for me, holding the most beautiful place in my heart💗

No momento em que a assisti dei 7,5, mas hoje ao fazer a resenha vi o quanto já era esquecível esse drama, porque o desenvolvimento foi apenas focado na raiva que o Do Hyeon sentiu no ensino médio quando foi "rejeitado"/abandonado pelo Dong Uk, que por sua vez sumiu para tratar da sua insônia crônica grave.

Dong Uk volta a universidade, entra pro time de basquete e vai morar com o Do Hyeon apenas por interesse próprio, óbvio que este segundo se sentiria traído e enganado novamente. Mas ao mesmo tempo, sabe que gosta dele, que se sente seguro ao lado dele e é por isso que consegue finalmente dormir tranquilamente.
Vendo de um ponto de vista de quem sofre de insônia, a ansiedade e os pensamentos acelerados fazem com que a gente não consiga se desligar, então quando ele finalmente dorme, é porque realmente o outro lhe conforta de uma forma única, mas será que isso é amor?
