script even though some of these actors can actually act but to engage them in a series that does nothing for their talent is sad.

Story
Great series with 2 amazing actors Chen and Jingyi..ML and FL. A hard watch as I found Li xun everything I hate in a man ruthless.. coolly calculating and
manipulative to the extent he messed with zhu yuns head with his total disregard for any of her feelings.
I wanted her to tell him to get lost but she was so obsessed with him it took over her life. There was no excuse for his behaviour where he totally destroyed her self esteem that she felt worthless. He had his moments of showing his feelings for her but he was a Jekyl and Hyde character one minute loving next very cold. It was a great watch.. The storyline was good. All the actors
were excellent. It was a happy ending at least for both of them especially for Jingyi as her love for Li xun never faltered.

Storyline
Just finished watching Century of Love. It's was okas series go but I have never watched a bl where
crying took over the speaking roles.. bit harsh I know.
I loved both the ML but I fell in love with the young doctor. Off-road when he went through the torturous
scenes with his body looked really convincing not easy to do but he mastered it. Him and Daou were the perfect pairing. As Vee and San.. San aloof..cold..scary
Vee.. Cute.. Sassy full of fun.. both different individuals
but as they say opposites attract. Apart from the bit over the top drama that ensued it was worth a watch.

Story
Watching this series I got very resentful with mieko and ejie. She got pregnant to be a surrogate for Makki and Ejie but in the end they started Acting like a couple where Makki felt left out. Selfish behavior and as soon as she agreed to be a surrogate I thought what a stupididea. The father got his wish after his disgusting behavior to Makkie. Ejie was a coward. He shouldn't have entered into a relationship if he couldn't deal with the outcome. Being gay unfortunately is still taboo in some Asian countrys so until laws are reversed LGBTQ
young men will still have to live in the shadows. Great series to watch.. Great actors.. Great script.. I love Bl Japanese series and I I've fell for the Japanese people.

Bad acting
I watched the trailer to this but decided to give it a go.Wish I hadn't. Really below standard for a BL.
All the actors seemed on another planet. There were pauses between lines.. Rak was depressive.. No actors
really gelled.. As soon as I saw males dressed as females
the acting was over the top and it turns everything into a comedy and you can't take the series seriously. I'm not against trans actors as I have a grandson whose gay but
it really puts you off probably because it's not so prevalent in the Western dramas. All in all not a good view but that's only my opinion.

Storyline
Well only just watched this BL drama and I was quite embarrassed watching it. The two ML did not gel and to see a grown man on the floor acting like a child mumbling and whatnot and the other ML getting his guitar out to sing to him to calm him down I'm afraid he couldn't sing. He was well out of tune and that didn't help the drama. I did watch it through to the end butwasn't impressed. People in Taiwan maybe love
Actors to look vulnerable and childish but where I come from the west I have never witnessed it in any drama
I have watched. I will add that Taiwan.. Korea.. China..
Philippines since 2020 when this came out have greatly improved their BL dramas and are more professionally
done.The actors are more professional. They have many talents singing and some have dance in their repertoire
and extremely smart and good looking.

Story
There are only a few Drama series that contain all aspects that make a series brilliant and this was one of them. Stranger and Stranger 2 were superb. I have seen other series by the same Director and knew it would be worth watching. The Script was full of twists and turns.. and the gathering of some of the best Korean actors to date. I couldn't wait to see the next episode and in the end binge watch the two series. You know a good series from the first episode if it catches your attention.It's top of my list for one of the best dramas ever with
Goblin.. Devil judge.. Angels fall sometimes.. Taxi Driver.
SKorea is up with best producing and directing great KDramas... ❤️

Script.
This series was Ok and was watchable I did stay thefull 10 episodes because of the actor who played Ken.
He was a cutie.The script was ok but confusing.There were moments when between conversations there were long gaps but that could have been the camera crew keeping the camera focused to long on a scene.
The three main actors Ken..Din..Mr lue at times the acting didn't flow.I preferred the chemistry between Ken and Din they were made for each other.The tender moments between them were beautiful and you felt the connection to each other. The pairing between Mr Lue and Ken just didn't sit well. The actor looked older..different body shape..more muscular. They didn't gel well. Nevertheless other viewers might have a different opinion to me and find it fab. Everyone's different.

Story
I know a lot of viewers were not very pleased with this BL due to the way Yho was being treated but I took it for what it was a drama and thoroughly enjoyed it. Yho was depicted as a loner and fell for Segasaki otherwise he wouldn't have been in a relationship with him toxic or otherwise.Loved both actors .. Both very cute.For some reason Japanese actors are incredible at showing their emotions Love..Excitement...Happiness..Sadness. Segasaki was very cohesive in his behaviour but Yhofought back and also when drunk his feelings came to the fore so he wasn't completely taken over.. Segasaki was put in his place more than once. You have many people in life who are very submissive to someone's feelings and they live like that. They prefer not to walk away.Yes I will watch it again.

Storyline
Unfortunately this Series is like so many BLs being made dull and boring.The two main leads had no charisma at all. Scriptwriters need to stop making so many dull BLs and more with a decent
storylines.Getting drunk.. Unbuttoning shirts..long stares like they have forgot their words.Its awkward viewing.Mon and So we're completely unmatched and main leads need to appeal to the female watchers. Saint was my favourite actor easy on the eye and he needs to star in a series as a main lead
with Pond or Micky.Mon I couldn't work out..he looked totally depressed about everything and everyone he came in contact with. SO wasnt much better.Putting these two as the main leads was a disaster. No charisma whatsoever. The moments Saint and Mon were together was a different vibe. At least Mon smiled more.I hated So for humiliating Mon by deliberately kissing a girl.I wish he had ended up with Saint.He did love Mon.The ending wasn't an ending.I am none the wiser wether Mon ended up with anyone.

Input of story..
Series was really good. All the Cast was professional the storyline was well..was this a BL. The two main actors must have had certain rules to abide by or theyhad no desire to seen with their shirts off and touching flesh
which many BLs are without being to explicit. To me the actors didn't connect and because there were three suitors after one person there was no real love story to follow. It became quite boring
It was 8 episodes long that should have been concentrated on the two love interests who were extremely good looking instead we got a mish mash of a story. It was OK but not a BL we are used to seeing in. The script really let down the story.

Is it worth watching..
Started off watching this drama and it was fast moving..plenty of twists to get you thinking..the acting was superb and the storyline it seems excellent but there was that much going on that I got confused part way through.I love meatier Korean dramas and for someone who really understood the story and could differentiate who was who this drama had everything.I decided to stay till the end and I was even more confused.This isonly my opinion and it doesn't take away how excellent it was for other viewers..

If its any good.
I will watch anything that features Ji Sung.To me he is one of the best Korean actors by far. He never ages and still has the looks
to give you heart flutters.. Devil Judge.. Heal me kill me were a joy to watch but in this Series he was still fab but the annoying
part of the series was it focused to much on
Kang Shi Young and her fragilitys. Not that she was a bad actress.. she wasn't but he was a fully fledged doctor and she was a novice but seemed to think she could give him advice when clearly she was the one needing his experience. Her weepy eyes
sad expressions totally got me down.
As for the other cast they were all very professional .. The storyline was great but There should have been more emphasis on ji Sung.. He was the draw.. without a woman popping up every 5 minutes. Maybe I was jealous.. 😂 rewatch. Value.. 2/5

How professional the actors are and storyline...
This Series had got to be one of the greatest that I have ever watched. The directing.. The storyline.. The acting..especially the two main actors.. Ji sung who is one of the most sexy actors on screen and the reason I watched Devil Judge.. Jinyoung singer in Kpop band
Got7 Jeon chae eun who played Elijah
what both superb actors.. I didn't want it to end. I felt the judge and Kim would have at least had more of a Bromance.
You could tell how they cared for each other. A very emotional roller coaster of a ride. all in all a great watch.. 120%...

The chemistry between the leading actors.
I'm getting a bit fed up of many BLs as they are just silly and stupid. It's always more or less the same story lines with no chemistry between the two actors. We know a passionate kiss when we see one.We need BLs that are passionate love storys which
contain drama and hard hitting storylines.. All BLs pretty much follow the same generic formula. Schoolboy BLs are the worst. Most contain a tripping up scene where the one who catches the offender takes about a minute to look into ones eyes and feels the love or gets blindly drunk and taken to his bed to wake up and wants to know what's hes doing there. Don't get me started on giggling schoolgirls who have a melt down seeing two lads together. This was an OK series but they are turning out BLs by the hundreds.. It's not about the quantity but more about quality. There are many who probably love cheesy BLs but being more in the 40 years old range we need more dark BLs..
