MBN content is rarely pick up by major international platforms. Viu or/and Kocowa might pick this one. Let’s…
It's showing Viki in the USA. I watched the trailer and was excited to see Sung Hoon but it isn't necessarily appealing to me. I hope the toilet is just choppy. I truly want Sung Hoon to do well. One late night I clicked on Perfect Marriage revenge thinking it would be a stinker because of the actors and it didn't look big budget. Well it was SOOOO good. And Sung Hoon was so good it in. I went to find him but he really hasn't had any other good dramas 😭He was also so cute in Oh My Venus!
i might be the odd one out, but at this point i am just going through the motions & am wondering why they…
I FINALLY understood everything and it finally actually had a really cohesive episode and then bam.. wait a week and then we have to wait another week?? It was not good enough to me for them to drag it out. The editing and screen play was so choppy and confusing. Like unread the synopsis and it sounded interesting but how they portrayed it with the time jumps and back and forth to the past and all over just made me not understand. It really doesn't show "love* from either of them. The 13th episode I can "believe " they love each other but I don't have the evidence based on how the episodes were edited. It's like I have to use my imagination to fill in the pieces and that is not why we watch dramas.
I don't think it is about the clothes, but the choice they did with it. The other similar scenes with clothes…
I tend to be a bit of a gooner when it comes to BL(just being real )but it just depends which type. I think my stubborn was 🔥 but then again even I got exhausted by how many it had and by the 9th one I was bored (I am probably exaggerating but I might actually be right). However I just finished Shine which is a Thai BL and it does have some NC scenes in the version I watched (I guess there is 2 one without NC) but the main leads didn't sleep together at all and barely kissed more than like 1x an episode for the first like 5 episodes which is rare for Thai bl. It was so refreshing because it was story driven, not NC. I liked it so much. Honestly the NC in the Missing Piece were mild but also frankly really awkwardly placed. It was like ok we are signing this contract relationship as my lover now get naked. Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔
Even though I hated what the wife did and I had 0 empathy for her in any form, I did want to see if he was having a decent time as a loving father. I think that would be the only good to come out of his forced situation.
Revisiting this jewel after seeing it when it aired last year. What a treat. I highly recommend it. Not a fluffy…
His character is probably the most tragic of all of them. He was free to love whoever because of his breakup but the man he truly loved was trapped in societal constraints. It would be interesting to see how he is doing because the love they shared is hard to top and I think it was soulmate level and he might be successful in life through career but will never feel the same level of connection he felt before.
Shine is a freaking masterpiece!! I will admit I go into BL not necessarily expecting much. I love it but I don't expect it to be Oscar quality. This story was one that hits you to the core. It is wonderfully written and acted. The drama itself is so deep that you sit with it after it's over. The actors were just amazing in their roles. I will admit I came for KinnPorsche level chemistry and adult scenes but when the story started taking form I truly was carried away to another level of drama. This is not just top Thai drama or top level BL drama, this is top level international drama!!! It's not perfect and it's not going to be everyone's cup of tea especially if you are going into it with certain expectations but I would say this is my FAVORITE BL/gay drama I've ever watched. I loved every character and every storyline except::::
Spoiler:
I struggled to find ANY empathy for the wife character. I can speak as a former wife of a man who was closeted gay. I would never force what she did. I know this was the times and I told my daughter this was the experience of gay men in that generation and it is truly sad.
i'm just BEGGING anyone who can't handle very dark and toxic romance to not watch this series
I love the chemistry but was sad to hear this would turn dark and that Ing would be hurt by Yok in a plot with Itt so now I am so torn. I really like it so far but can't handle angsty red flag type drama.
I agree the last 3 episodes dropped off quite a bit but this was still at least an 8.5 for me and the first 15 episodes were definitely 9. I really enjoyed it and didn't feel bored until the end when I started shifting more to the side couples. This was a very good fast paced smart and mature drama. It didn't have a lot of angst which is probably why I enjoyed it so much. I don't like a drama with tons of misunderstanding, love triangles and hesitancy from characters. I do think some chemistry was lacking but that is not because I want to find fault in the drama or the actors, it just did feel "off" for me especially after they got together. I liked how intelligent the drama was and that was refreshing to me. Some workplace dramas can be super dry for me. This was engaging and I couldn't wait for the next episode.
I was also thinking Miles Wei would have been a better ML for her.
He would have been wonderful in this role but I don't think they match. I don't know why but it did feel off. I am not a hater either. I genuinely absolutely loved this drama.
I was actively really getting into this. I do wish for a bit more happening between me and fl by the 9th episode. I wish the FL was a bit more mature acting. Being a freshman in college doesn't mean you are completely oblivious to the fact the guy likes you and it feels a bit too over the top to have her act that uninterested.
Episode 1:What early Halloween Fright Nightmare of bad plastic surgery, collagen trout mouths, and badly cast…
Yeah some Thai bl that do the long pauses just astounds me. It's not as bad but I am even noticing it in You Maniac, which I love but still it's like TALK FOR GOSH SAKE!
