I watched tonight’s my golden blood and eye contact. I still like my golden blood although i think the world-building has a few holes. But this week the bathtub scene made my cry. They were just so sincere and i actually think they’re pretty good actors. They sold me on needing each other to go on. Plus those visuals! I can guess how it will end but I still hope they do a good job with the last episod.
eye contact is nothing new. I couldn’t even remember it until I turned it on again. School setting, pretty faces, love triangle, multiple couples. I'm not really a fan of drunken hook ups with questionable consent. They’re sexy but also upsetting because I know of too many real ones. Nor do I find jokes about being sore the next day funny. But I do like when being sore is included because it adds realism to the NC scenes. And I am happy with NC scenes early on so I don’t have to wait and wonder.But medium level explicit so be warned. I will still keep watching because this is like the bread and butter of the BL industry and making similar stories like this doesn’t bother me. I find it easy to watch and comforting.
i also just finished A Secretly Love on WeTV can’t say it was good quality but I fpound it easy to watch because it required little attention or emotional investmen. The subtitles are terrible, though. All the pronouns are interchanged so it’s hard to know who anyone’s talking about. In general the story was like someone took a bunch of popular BL tropes and threw them together with some mediocre actors. Also when the GL couple hooked up they only hugged which really annoys me. It’s especially ambiguous when the characters are best friends. The main couple barely kissed either. I can tolerate low quality but not no pay off at the end. Still not sorry I watched it. Good filler for when I’m tired and don’t want to focus too much. Stars “Ming” from 2 Moons and the “dead” boyfriend from Chains of heart.
also both eye contact and a secretly love play the game of the guy who’s never dated a guy before or mostly dated women. I don‘t mind depictions of fluid sexuality ( often like it) but I get tired of men who don’t like men “except for you.” Eye Contact hasn’t said that just shown guys who dated women going after a guy now. So maybe I’m getting annoyed too soon with that one.
also, I keep watching mission to the moon because Pak is so sexy but it’s really disappointing. The company needs lessons in how to make a short form show. Every episode of this feels cut off. But its so short it’s low commitment and I keep hoping it will get better.
