Fluent in F Bombs
Don't let the short amount of eps fool you... this is binge watching gold! I was born in a military community and yeah half the corpse is just pricks. As we all know, it is mandatory for South Korean men to enlist, but we don't know the mental and physical abuse that goes on. Just like at school where everyone knows but no one does anything, this series highlights the darkness that is the military. I like when shows tell a different story with each episode and D.P. is no exception. Everything is tied together with plenty of bloody punches, heart wrenching moments and spunky comedy. There's enough action to satisfy even the most intense adrenalin junkie. There's also quite a few well known actors in this.The ending had me a little lost but I think it's kinda an open ending BUT WAIT...
*hint: after the credits is another ending...much more brutal and sadly convincing of reality.

Diluted
So I'm not really sure how I ended up here but it was short and I had time lol If this started as a novel I PRAY it's better than this. Idk how to explain it but, it wasn't horrible yet it wasn't good either. Reminder: It's Chinese so it's been watered down to barely above bromance (I was impressed with that much). The story had potential but somehow fell face first flat. It wasn't the acting, I literally think it's because it was short and Chinese based. (I know it sounds rude, but any BL fan knows China lowers everything to Bromance). I agree with the overall rating of this series.Enjoy...

Umm
Well if you're looking for some Twilight Zone hot mess you've come to the right place. This has been on my PTWL for awhile and honestly I'm not even sure why I put it on here to begin with. lol I think this would've been better as a series than a movie cause I feel like there was little to no detail on the story which makes it difficult to keep my attention. The graphics (blood etc) were pretty convincing and there were some damn good MC visuals (bonus). This SHOULD'VE BEEN A BL but it's bromance af and I'm feeling some type of way about it! Overall, short, sweet, and to the point... I'm disappointed due to lack of pretty much everything to make it spicy.Enjoy...

Consitpation
Looking for something where they ravage each other and provide sexual content? TURN BACK! Looking for something with an amazing storyline/plot? LEAVE NOW! Looking for something so cheesy you'll get constipated af? LOOK NO FURTHER!As an experienced BL fan I've seen it all...the good, bad and ugly. It wasn't necessarily "bad" I think the cheesiness and the rush of suddenly everything going in every direction it shouldn't, is mind blowing. It has it's cute and funny moments of course and there's sweetness with sadness. It had potential but I don't feel the MC had good chemistry. I wouldn't recommend for someone starting into the BL World but I guess it's decent enough to watch. I actually liked it more in the beginning then suddenly it went into the abyss then came back up but shot to the stars and crashed landed in a black hole. The ending tho is...satisfying?
To each their own....

Bumpy Road Ahead!
I haven't made a review in awhile so here we go...No doubt, it's a confusing series with plot holes, unnecessary characters and predictable situations BUT it also comes with real life issues of love, lust and friendship while giving the MCs the character development they desperately need and deserve that unfortunately doesn't come as quick as it should. It has a decent paced start with all the juicy drama colliding in the middle that somehow manages to plunge off a cliff into oblivion at the end! It's a guessing game through a lot of it which might put some people off but if it's straight forward then it would make a boring series. I'm not sure how I feel about the ending since it came to a screeching halt the way it did but I think everything worked out the way it SHOULD given the circumstances of each character. As someone who enjoys BL (with no shame) potential viewers should know it focuses on building and losing relationships as opposed to $ex and make out sessions. The BL content is on the average spectrum for me so if you're looking for steamy scenes you won't find much here.
Enjoy.

Cringe-tastic
I've watched a LOT of BL and I gotta say this one has left me with the most mixed feelings.First 4ish eps were the best and I binge watched the entire series. After that it got confusing where they started adding in random/unnecessary characters, the same dramatics and pitiful smackdowns. The MCs literally argued over the same thing everytime and the facial expressions of everyone had me cringe mode! The "hickies" had me dying. It's clear everyone is a new and upcoming actor so with that in mind the series wasn't too bad. There's a lot of gay people at that college and I believe everyone low key has a drinking problem lmao
Wouldn't recommend but not so bad I'd drop it

YinWar
For starters, this series is a spin off of the patent story 'En of Love' so it doesn't matter which one you watch first but personally I'd watch EOL so you get a general idea of YinWar. They're probably my fav current BL couple but unfortunately, this series didn't change much of how they were in EOL.ANYWAY, if I'm not comparing it then I really enjoyed this series. It has its basic Thai BL cringe and cute moments but YinWar is pretty much a dynamic duo you can't help but can scream for lol We can all realize to the characters in some way, whether it's school stress, family troubles, being cheated on etc everyone has a story here. I feel the end got rushed a LOT and it definitely had its good, bad and ugly moments but if you're looking for a cute MC with decent romance and fluffy BL cuteness and drama...look no further
Enjoy....
P.S. last ep after credits had me SCREAMING

Sweet
First I have to say, as long as you don't think realistically this is rather enjoyable. (Don't be like me and find random illogical parts) lol and if you can get past the MCs 'always shocked' facial expressionsAnyways, I was kinda worried since I've seen this theme in BL before but I gave it a shot. It had its cringe and cheesy moments but also its really sweet moments. Unfortunately, (as usual) I liked the side couple more and I feel they need their own story cause they definitely didn't get worthy screen time! It's not something I'd necessarily recommend but I don't feel like it'll be a total let down. It's about average in the BL department at this point lol

Confusingly Good
Wasn't sure if I should write a review since I had mixed feelings about this series from the beginning, but here we are.This series was nothing special but not necessarily bad enough to make me drop it either. It was pretty slow paced but got better toward the end. If I wasn't confused at the end, I don't think you will be either lol. Overall it was really cute. There's better Taiwanese BL out there but it still had it's cute and heart whelming moments. I wouldn't recommend but I wouldn't dismiss this short series.

Different
I'm a serial killer/thriller/psychological drama junky so I felt this would be right up my alley. And I was right. It was actually pretty interesting to imagine how much work goes in to answering civilian stress calls. It caught me off guard at first with the multiple cases it dealt with, but that's what sparked my enjoyment of this series. It wasn't just about someone on a killing spree. The MC's are a perfect dynamic duo and the cast is filled to the brim with all types of interesting characters (including a certain k-pop idol).One cool thing I enjoyed was when you think of "strong female lead" you think of someone who kicks ass for fun and uses weapons like toys but not here, this series female lead is strong in a mental set. It's not always about being tough it's about having a strong mindset and the confidence to back it up. Our FMC didn't disappoint.
This series shines through the darkest pits of proving that money is the root of all evil!
Would recommend if you're wanting something with a bit of blood and brain matter or some rage fueled anxiety lol

Quick Paced
I actually really enjoyed this show! It's something I would've been mad to wait a week to watch though(I binged watched) lol Anyway, It was all around a really short series which is more common for SK, but worth the watch. It moved real quick which can leave room for error but I didn't find much wrong with the series as a whole. The focus stayed on the MC and what little support cast there was, all played a necessary part in our MCs story together. Some parts made you figure out for yourself what had happened but not enough to make this series a deal breaker. It's not a favorite but if you want something to watch while you wait on your series next ep then this is the place for you.*Idk how to explain this but the kiss(es) were a little weird. It's like they got highlighted/up close but still nothing went on. lol

Smooth Ride
I waited for this to be completed so I could binge watch, and that's exactly what I did lol It was nice to see some familiar faces and even nicer to see some new ones. The story itself was not only super cute but had good meaning behind every character. It did get a little bland in the middle cause it kinda went in circles and got to the point I was like "There's no way someone can be this dense!" but in reality, we always are going to try to keep ourselves from getting hurt and I think that's what our MC really tried to do. The side couples got good screen time and I highly recommend cause the cute and quirky moments are to die for!Enjoy...

Hilariously Scary
When I saw this series it blew my mind how you can throw physiological thriller, serial killer and comedy into the same show so naturally, as a psycho thriller fan I dove straight into this epic roller coaster! I loved every minute of this series and all the cast brought their own spice to this dish. There's characters you can relate too and of course ones you're gonna love to hate! I had constant anxiety through this series but the dark, random, quirky humor lit it up flawlessly. I loved that even though it ran you in circles it never got boring and everything tied into itself perfectly. There was no unnecessary drama that split off from the main story, there was one consistent story and I definitely enjoyed that. The MC was so cute and turned off his goofy cuteness for a sinister killer vibe flawlessly!I can't imagine having the HORRIBLE luck the MC had and you get to experience it all in 16 fun filled eps lol

Wash and Repeat
Most of us were here for Singto, and I am no exception but I gotta say, this is his worst work yet. No, it's not because I'm so stuck on him being with Krist forever (kinda) but because legit there was nothing going on here. The episodes seemed to repeat themselves constantly but I stuck it out cause I'm no quitter lol. There wasn't much to the story but parts that I liked I REALLY liked until I realized it's because it repeated itself with that too. I have no intention of recommending this to even a newbie BL fan cause as a Singto fan, I'm thoroughly unimpressed. I saw quite a few familiar faces which is always nice but I didn't see much chemistry between the MCs which is most important in this industry. Honestly, I don't blame bad acting, I believe it's 100% bad story!btw I gave a higher rating than MDL recommended
