BL Dramas & Movies

Enjoyed

A new favourite, really like this series. Great couples chemistry. Initial couple would have received a 9 review. Only fault, the trauma faced by Sky‘s character was dealt with too lightly, thus overall not deserving of a 9 review.

Nice to see these couples again

A reminder that happiness needs to be fought for.

This one made me feel a little uncomfortable.

There are complex issues in this one, and I would have been so confused if I hadn’t read the books/seen Love Syndrome 3. An extra 20 mins to show the development of the main couples stories would have gone a long way to understanding why the characters were behaving as they were.

This wasn’t nearly as bad as painted. In my opinion the script, direction and editing all needed work. Particularly in regard to revealing the background story, as this is billed as a third instalment of a series that does not have instalments one and two produced … and thus needs to be viewed as a stand alone drama. Insights into the background story were vague and I needed to read the synopsis of the novels to understand what had happened to date. Once revealed, as the actors say, horrible things occurred, yet how they moved from initial hatred to soulmate love is left unexplained. Despite this, I do think this drama is worth a watch. Majority of the acting is good although the sex scenes look too contrived.

I couldn’t help but want to see Gene’s journey.

i didn’t enjoy this as much as I thought I would; I didn’t think the storytelling was good enough.Has a darkness to it. 

A  comedy bromance.

Thank you too whoever put this into a movie like format. Cute, enjoyable show.

Hard to rate a tongue in cheek series. This couple is sweet, the support couple intriguing and the sets/concepts on point. Worth a watch.

Sad, compelling and erotic.1 of 4

Less than 30 hour. Allows us to see the bond between the two isn‘t broken. 3 of 4.

This is a must watch if you want to see the series. In a way I wish I’d just watched Mood Indigo and learnt that the main character found someone who loves them. 2 of 4

Final in the series. Doesn’t leave me with a feeling of certainty about the couple’s future … but that’s a reflection of reality. 4 of 4

Loved it. The chemistry between Earth and Mix is spot on, Gemini and Fourth are brilliant.  It has a mature script and good direction. 

Worth a watch.

Odd, slow, script wasn’t predictable … felt like I wanted to keep watching

I smile, cringe and roll my eyes at this one, but glad to have watched it.

This series got better with every instalment. Wish they’d make more.

Comical, light hearted and G rated. This delivers.

Can’t help but fall for these characters. Well told, one I really enjoyed.

Musical which is upbeat, refreshing and well written/directe.

This one has good and bad points. I’m not sure where it was the direction or the script that held this back.

Enjoyable sequel, of the fluffy kind.

Odd but worth a watch.

More adult production. Recommend.

Adult gay film. Prostitution. Made me uncomfortable, but that was probably the point. No rating because it’s so different. Would I recommend, probably not … on the flip side, it’s probably more realistic … sad to say.

Sweet

More mature content. 

Most comical BL I’ve seen. Cringey, but endearing.

Sweet story, with adult outlook.

Charmingly awkward… hope there is another season

This is THE best BL drama I have seen to date. From the story to the acting and direction, I can’t fault it, it was brilliant.

Can’t say enough about this brillant production.

Lovely series about mature couple with a child.

Good continuation of the story. Enjoyed this.

Enjoyed, although the usual

Loved quite a bit, disliked some of the storytelling … frustrated as could have been really good

Wouldn’t recommend, mature themes, abuse

This one earns .5 because it’s polished.

One of my favourite BL couples; would have loved to see what a more mature script and crisper direction, could have achieved.

Loved this. Highly recommend.

Flows beautifully

Mmm good and bad points. Although worth a watch.

Another interesting and satisfying production. Great selection of lead couple.

Sweet story.

Not for the faint hearted. This drama is both comforting and disturbing. Unique.

Cute; good chemistry. Basic story.

Enjoyable

Cute

Courage is required when someone is important to you.

Not too bad, cute couple.

Much better options in my opinion; however it is the second part of the series.

Good way to end the series, better than part 2.

Very lovey dovey and sweet.

This is the bravest and most natural BL couple when it comes to sex scenes. And they  don’t shy away from enhancing the story by including these scenes. The plot wasn’t bad and the usual additional couples including one very amusing comedic couple rounded out the drama.

Lovely relationship beginning brief drama. Would like to see a second season.

Based around an actual (newish) TPOP group. This drama highlights the unrealistic expectations of idols by their companies and die-hard fans.

My favourite BL series.  Tharn is type of character its so easy to fall for as a viewer. Throughout the series it addresses many of the issues dealt with by the gay community.

This was a confronting series to watch. It reminded me you need to be brave when it comes t communication. Deals with manipulation, betrayal, suicidal issues.

Glad these couplings are choosing more mature scenarios as they age. It’s a rom com for one couple and a rom drama for the other. Entertaining enough.

These two are all romance. Once again the cheeky, over achieving youngster leading the dedicated elder through a series of ordeals. Big production.

Enjoyed up until ending … too ambiguous and confusing; especially as the guys live in the same dorm room.

Storyline  strong.

Mixed feelings about this one. Script was bad. Direction not good. Wouldn’t recommend, but I did watch it til the end.

Gentle movie, full of long glances.

Friendship drama

I’ve fallen in love with this story. Love the development of this couple of pure souls, who were cast perfectly. I needed to rewatch after knowing more about Lan Zan character.  

I would have preferred having some of the fighting scenes better edited down.

Enjoyed

A series that is a little different. One character is open and communicative and the other is closed off and suppresses his emotions to the point it’s difficult to accept this behaviour; although my opinion here is probably affected by my lack of understanding the culture/lifestyle in Korea.

Very under-rated series. Has heterosexual relationships as well amongst the main cast, giving a more realistic reflection of society. Not a fan of the Bright & Farm relationship, although relationships come in many forms not always healthy. Must admit, Max is a favourite of mine.

Beautiful, sad and lovely. More realistic than most. A mature level for BL. Highly recommend.

All eyes on Boom; he is captivating as the focus of this drama. The total selflessness of his romantic partner comes off as both obsession n unrealistic, although that’s down to the script/direction. An enjoyable watch.

Nearly stopped watching after the first episode, it got better. Infatuated lead, who’s honest with and pursuant of his love.

Really enjoyed this adult story line … like most Korean BLs it’s vanilla, but lacks nothing because of this.

A must watch for any BL fan.

Provided a range of emotions. Has darker storyline. Worth watching in my opinion.

Love these

Really like this BL pairing. 

Comedy drama. Brother was my favourite character. Can’t get access to special episode.

This drama is a set apart by its unique storyline; which has numerous subplots, both light and philosophical.
