Wait wut? How's Moon Chae Won's breakout year 2020 though lol she's already well established actress in her home country and has multitudes of hits in her filmography.

Zhang Yuxi needs to do another drama with Ryan Ding. Their chemistry in Intense Love was amazing, it made the drama basically.

Yeah, North India is definitely deeply conservative compared to other parts of India. The South and the East are far more liberal in comparison.

I'm Indian as well, I live in the North East. Subh Mangal Jyada Sawdhan was a hit though and it was critically acclaimed as well + you're mitigating the effect of pandemic in theatres. It was released in Feb 2020, just right before the lockdown here. Also same-sex marriages here isn't well accepted yep, but it's not as much of a taboo as it was a few years ago. I know plenty of gay people irl here and they're not persecuted by the society here. Most people just mind their own business where I live.

India has LBGT dramas too in recent times. Take the ones like His Story or Romil and Jugal. It's not as controversial as it was in the past.

All the dramas on GMMTV channel are gone too. The hacker made them all private and/or took them all down. And they even renamed the channel to Cardano before it was reverted back to GMMTV.

This might not air anytime soon because of the GMMTV channel getting hacked. They postponed all upcoming shows and episodes till further notice. A big F.

Does this have a love triangle between ML-FL and his cousin? I feel like there's a love triangle, I'm in the 2nd episode and she seems to be in love with the cousin?

Is there any love triangle in this at all? Does that girl who's Lin Yang's subordinate act like a spoilt brat throughout this show or will she improve?

Another Lovecraftian Horror by Shiraishi. It's a decent movie with a really convincing performance by Yeon Je Wook. He's the star of this movie. It's just not as good as other Shiraishi films like Noroi and Occult sadly. For one, the runtime is too long here and many part of it feels like it's being dragged on for the sake of it. Not to mention the female lead was a mediocre actress and failed to play her role convincingly. 6.5/10.

IKFR? I know a bunch of people who hate it too, but the amount of love it gets is just SO troubling. "It's Fiction" - IT DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER, it's still toxic, problematic shitty content.

lol the FL is sassy and no nonsense. We need more FLs like her in Cdramas, rather than the "perfect innocent"type who usually have no backbones.

Insta-PTW. ABH sounds perfect for this drama. His looks and build is really suitable for a military role.

Also first comment!

AHH YESSSSS! I'm really glad he's getting more lead opportunities. He has the looks, charisma and the talent to become the next big star. <3

That drama sounds PERFECT for him. He suits a military role very well.

I hope he's an adult.

I've seen it indeed, it's a classic.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against younger man/older woman trope. I love that trope in fact if it involves both parties as adults (for e.g I loved Search:WWW, Something in the Rain etc.). But it goes into the realms of grooming if it's an adult-teenager romance. I've seen the experiencing of what grooming can do to a person IRL and it's bad and I absolutely find it horrific when it's romanticised.

Watching it, it's reminiscent of Find Yourself which I also really liked. Hope the supporting characters become fleshed out as well similar to the former.

How do you know that though? The synopsis says it's set in a high school, so LDH's character is prolly still a high schooler

You'll prolly have trouble finding many of these with Eng subs loool

Is Jao Sao Jum Yorm really slap kiss? I watched it and the ML treats the FL with a lot of respect throughout. The mandhandling was really non-existent compared to other Lakorns.

Romance in this means it's a show about a grown ass adult woman having a relationship with a high schooler.
