This couple is insane. Kim Dong Hee as a gay boy was 100% believable. There was something so soft and tender about him. Go Ho Tae looks like the straightest boy who ever walked on earth, but how he showed his emotions towards Kim Dong Hee it was 100% believable how much he was into him. That's what I like: a believable gay story with believable attraction you can feel through the screen. That's how you do it. My trust in Korean BL is restored.

You won't believe what my almost-40-years-old self felt watching that kiss ... Never happened to me before. The second kiss was even more crazy.

Yes, I have watched it. It's too slow, too much school plot. I can't connect to the characters well. It just doesn't draw me in.

Did you watch the Time Of Fever? Most beautiful BL I have seen in my long ass 8 year BL watching career.

On1y One isn't that great. Watch The Time Of Fever, similar vibes, but better. That one really is a masterpiece.
Jack and Joker deserves at least 8.5.

Can't get over War's acting. He is so talented, but let's be real, with his height and small body he won't get many lead roles in (hetero) dramas. So glad he found his place in the BL industry.

For all those people who are gushing over The On1y One, go watch The Time Of Fever and give it some love.

That's not what I meant. But if one character is openly gay/bisexual that gives toxic fans even more motivation to ship them. Well, if I think about it, maybe it's the opposite. Straight-like-an-arrow bl couples get the most attention.

"Nothing controversial about them"
Isn't War openly bisexual? Those two remind me a bit of MaxTul, who were drama free for the longest time, but apparently after Manner Of Death that changed. Let's hope YinWar stays strong.

Where can I find the movie version? I want to buy it and support this beautiful work.

Hahaha!

I guess you didn't watch episode 2, because you forgot to mention the not so subtle product placing. This time we got cookies!

It has a rating of 9.9 on iQIYI. Who cares about MDL?
This must be a bug.

And so they made the best Korean BL ever. Just like that.

Tell that my local bank that did the 3rd renovation in 10 years and wants 12k from me for a 70k loan

The problem is, that there are a lot of younger people who like what GMMTV does, while older folks have more (watching) experience and are more critical. If you're new to the BL genre or GMMTV, their productions may seem mind-blowing good. If I think about how big Addicted/Heroin was back in the day, when it really wasn't that great of a series or production, you hopefully see my point. Also, the younger girls like to gush over the cute boys, and don't care that much about storytelling/plot/production whatever.

This is similar to the webtoon problem. There is a young generation out there who loves that kind of content. But if you grew up with old school black-white Japanese manga, it's honestly painful to look at that "art". It's ugly, lacks creativity, good storytelling, soul. It's just shiny big images, and you have to scroll for an eternity just to grasp a single scene. It's really bad, but very popular. Lately, I saw an artist on YouTube talking about it, and I was so relieved to see that I'm not the only one out there, who thinks comic art is dying. What I mean: younger people lack experience in media (film/art/comics) and are easily impressed. The more shallow, shiny, cute and sexy the better.

Not to say that everything was better once upon a time. Older people tend to glorify their experience, because back then they were also easy to impress.

On the main page of MDL I saw someone talking about Korean Drama, that the quality and originality got lost over the last years. So yeah, many people want something new, something better, something exciting.

The role is so fitting. He can't play the bad boy action hero, since he is too small and not strong enough. But the sly thief? Perfect.

I don't hate Ohm. I'm only here because of him. And I'm angry, that they don't have a better script for him.

Lol, I'm here since 2016.
It always gets a bit heated on MDL, that's normal. People come and go, only a few stay for so long.

Since the competition is so low this year, this may even be true.

You can gossip as much as you want. People on this site seem to hate me, but it's my fault. I'm a bit harsh and bitter.
