Thank you queen/king HWANG DA SEUL, for paving the way for KBL / LGBTQ+ industry in korea. Since her creation WYEL hit Korean screens two years ago, there have been 50+ Korean LGBTQ+ shows and contents in a time san of 2 years. She changed the entire narrative of this side of the world. It is much thanks to her that we get to see second big step towards such stories.
LITBC, was not only complete, but unapologetically raw, heavy on emotions, and feelings...it lifts the curtain and showed the audience the power of story....
Congrats to the entire team, the directorsnim, writernim, technical team, production and distribution companies for promoting the series without any pressure that made it successful. I know it is on OTT platform, but the promotions and events was never done before the series start and people welcomed it with open arms, so it is a step ahead.
ps. HDS has another drama currently being on-air LFTCOT, it is damnleciosuly good and raw. Do watch that as well.
I wanna watch it so bad! But I'm from SEA and I don't even have Viki pass ðŸ˜
it is available in different platform...I support official platform, but if even I have VIKI pass, it is not available in my region, so what can I do, of course I have to go for other channels.
Woah, man... that was incredible! So well-made—the acting, the yearning, the emotions—I could truly relate. And when you can relate, nothing feels bad. It was the best of the best. Korea has finally taken a mature step forward after two years of cautious success. Huge respect to the company for promoting it without hesitation. The writer even said he was glad the company promoted the series without fear because he knew his work was top-notch. He was that confident, and I absolutely love it.
P.S. For once, stop focusing on the ending. Stories like this, with characters like him, have no end. They continue in their pursuit of happiness. The entire journey is the beginning, the middle, and the end. I've finally reached an age where I no longer look for endings but for journeys that make everything worthwhile.
LMK is one of the best actor...he has done all kind of roles...the erotic, the thriller, the experimental, the romantic, the comedy, the character acting, the method acting, cliche ML acting...he has not done villain role yet, at least not possible in a series but I do hope for him to do in a film
this series is magic….one of the best…I love wherever she goes…she makes her own presences…she can’t live under anyone shadow not even her own. And such people don’t exist…
this is auch a great and uthentic script. this is perhaps one of the beat webtoon adaptations woth ao much authenticity and earnesty…every scene is so seemingly uniform amd connected plu the performance…ahhh…such a treat to watch…ps. I fear the friend will turn on her in the middle of story… as it always happens
I think your right in everything you said.But your last line my thinking is early days yet, having watched a few…
i think that is the case, writer herself reduced the ep for a weekend drama so there highly unlikely that there will be any more annoying character other than aunt, brat sister and brother to create much problem.
I think they might add more characters since the story is very simple, and there is no secret so far, like secret son/daughter/lover trope, there is none.
So I hope it continues like this and be a good one, as all last ones were utter trash, nonsense, since Once Again, one of my fav weekend drama. 100 EP not a single boring.
I'm really interested in CTU and his character. I'm pleasantly surprised that he's not the one-dimensional second…
yes there is more to him, he seems interested in big sister, but his affection for younger sister isn't ruled out yet, as FL will be with ML eventually, so there has to be SML tension to make a story.
I have observed CTU and he is not blindly into LDR, he is aware she likes him, and he is aware not to refuse her advances, but since she thinks he is poor, she is like a swing...so he is also watching...but I have a hunch that CTU will definitely fall for CDR even if it is not the case now, but later he definitely will, when CDR realises her feelings for ML. So lets wait until half to know more.
Don't "doubt" this series and watch...EP4 sealed the deal. Fantastic. The build up was good since Ep1. Kim sabu,…
LSH and JHB were in love. So the mother of JHB accidentally or purposely killed LSH to make JHB live like a normal person. And the mother buried the body in mountain, and the delinquent children filmed it and asked for money...but the mother committed suicide later/ This is the plot so far, lets see how it goes further.
It is very obvious that daughter is innocent...but she is doing all this to catch someone and punish herself for unable to protect her brother and blame everything on herself by pretending to be angry, delinquent and rebellious against her father.
I gave this series, uncut version and Director cut all 10/10 why? Not beacuse it is the best but queen HDS opened a door for Korea for stories that people were afraid to tell.
In just 4 years there have been over 50 BL series released in Korea so yeah I am definitely rating a full score.
I can't tell how much I love LS, he is damn good actor, the way he hold his hands on his waist and scold people, and the way he take side of LDH? I mean who doesn't love a person who has SJY personality???
Let’s talk about the dance he does when he’s listening to his old Samsung/Sony MP3! I mean, he’s absolutely gorgeous—childish yet mature, beautiful through and through, and so raw. His emotions and feelings are so raw that you can practically choke on them. I’m not even sure what I meant by that, but that’s exactly how it felt.
I know Queen is an overrated word, but HDS surpasses her own level with each series. She is a trailblazer in Korean BL/LGBTQ stories of post this century...she opened the doors for BLs, and since then there has been over 50 BL in just 4 years after her magnum opus, "Where Your Eyes Lingers" entered in Korean market and approved by Korean Film and TV Censor Board.
I have no idea what CTU is doing. He lets someone else’s bratty sister kiss him and play around, and while it’s clear he has some feelings for her, he’s not a fool. It feels like he’s testing her to see her true nature, especially since she’s so driven by money. He lets everyone think he’s poor, but at the same time, he gives the impression that he has feelings for LDR. Though, those feelings could just be more like sibling affection, while it’s DR who seems to be the one crushing on him.
CTU is very cautious around CDR, but he’s got a good heart. He won’t let anyone take advantage of him just because of material things. It seems like his goal isn’t to live a life of riches but just to have enough so that he’s not poor.
ps. best thing about this show no old aunties, grandmas, uncles and useless side people who are there ti to shout and create problems. Less cast and more focus on characters.
how do you know cty is not poor?.i missed something!
By EP2 on rooftop, the realtor lady asked her that how come he owned this entire building, and tell her secret of his stock trading. It was very clear scene.
CTY is clearly not poor, he in fact is a rich and it was no secret by EP2. So why he is working as a part time at the laundry? He can clearly give 800k to DR for eye treatment? I have yet to catch EP6 to know more.
Also the DR siblings are bastards, I thought they were good when they were child, but their personalities, god what on earth they have done to think they can behave like that? A police office with no words to say think he is tired of every one, and the sister whose anger is sits on her nose and she burst every sec for what??? Do their suffering as big as DR???? Fuck them.

Kim sabu, is always great in his roles.
Click below to what actually happened, it could change but for now it is clear as crystal.
