Between the title and the poster I imagined some dreamy, supernatural atmosphere for the drama. A little disappointed it wasn't that. Though I felt the dreamy part once or twice. In the beginning. I liked this BL anyway. It was enjoyable if you don't have anything else to watch.
Unfortunately they added the love triangle plot (always hated those). Well the love triangle with the girl was okay. At least it was resolved quickly and she didn't have any cute moment with him. I especially loved how, after agreeing to stay friends, she was so supportive of him and his love for the other guy.
HOWEVER, what the point of the other love triangle????? They resolved the first one in the first half of the series, didn't know what plot to do for the second half so they did the same thing????๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ It's just lazy writing. The guy could have helped the main couple without him being in love๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
I know there are a lot of "๐" Sorry I'm just that annoyed.
that's what I've been wondering for years... maybe it's because it's hard to access reliable information aout…
Follow My Sunshine is one of my favorite V-BL alongside the movie Goodbye Mother. I love other V-BL but I don't remember the titles๐
Though I don't know Hello Rival, I Love You. Where can I watch it? Can you share the link please?
Also I know who you're talking about. All people who watch V-BL would know him๐ It's Ba Vinh. He's an actor in O2 Production (Vietnamese's GMMTV๐) He was in so many BL with different co-star each time. My favorite one is his partner in Mr. Cinderella.
that's what I've been wondering for years... maybe it's because it's hard to access reliable information aout…
I agree with you: Pinoy BL isn't good. I only enjoyed 2-3 BL? I tried to watch some more but I couldn't. The quality isn't good. Meanwhile I watched all of Vietnamese BL that I could find (minus one: saw its ending and I'm not ready). There are really good BL that should be more known by fans.
OMG this is a first time I saw a post included the Vietnamese BL. I mean I didnโt even notice that we have BL…
I watched all of O2 Production's BLs (I think of it like Vietnam's GMMTV๐ )
Also I think Ba Vinh played with every male actor of O2๐ Though my favorite ship for him was Truong Minh Thao. I can't wait for their next drama.
For none O2's BL I liked Sea him and Tien bromance. They were okay. I can't remember other titles right now even though I watched some more.
As for Goodbye mother, it's one of my favorite queer movies and the best Vietnamese.
Sadly it's really difficult to find Vietnamese BL since they aren't on MDL. I don't understand why when they even have Filipino BL (Honestly I prefer Vietnamese BL to Filipino BL. The quality is better). I hope they'll add Vietnamese BL in the future,
In the meantime if you have any drama to recommend, please share it with me.
I love this series. I watched it few months ago and I'm already re-watching it. It's such a masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!!! All the actors did a great job., be it the main actors or the support actors. My only complain: it's too short. 12 episodes isn't enough. It should be longer!
This kind of drama is really my favorite. I need a lot more like that!! What I mean: when the main characters, in addition of having their own story which is the main plot of the drama, meet other characters throughout the drama, each with their own story, that we learn together with the MC. These stories are often beautiful, warm, heartbreaking... I don't know if the genre has its own name, but we find it in different kind of genres & stories: supernatural, investigation, family, etc.
So if someone has any recommendation, please share it with me. I already watched -Move to heaven -Tomorrow -Under the skin -D.P; Ss1+2 (Ss2's stories were my favorite) -Missing: the other side; Ss1+2 -Taxi driver; Ss1+2 (This one was the least emotional among them all since it was more focused on the action. I didn't cry much.)
P.S: Is it just me or does this drama's opening feels like Under the skin opening? The music and the vibes from both are similar.
Dammit! I would like to watch this as the trailer looks good but why do they need to add romance into this type…
Ikr. I hate when they do that. There are already so many romance story out there. Could they stop adding it to every other genre? Especially when it's unnecessary to the story. Like you said I want more bromance and sismance.
Plus I need more FL with their own story, has their own personality, ... A FL who can only be friend with the ML without any ambiguity. A FL that isn't here to play the "damsel in distress" for the ML to save her, fall in love with her & prove the viewers that he's straight.
Waiting to see what kind of story the gay bestie gets. I hope he's not just a prop for the straight romance.
I'll also wait for the series to be complete to watch it. I don't mind watching a non-BL series with a gay character for them as long as they have their own story & their own interesting personality. Also lets hope he has a lot of screen time.
*Sigh...I'm tired of China's censorship! I'm 100% sure we'll never see any of the series that hasn't came out yet๐ญ๐ญ Can't they let us at least enjoy the Bromance series even if they ban BL๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
Only the Novel was BL ,there was never mean to be that the Drama was also BL ! I dont know why People get annyoed…
People are angry because they turn a gay love story into straight love story. There are already million straight novels & dramas out here. If you're homophobic just don't adapt a gay love story or at least remove the romance & make them friends WITHOUT adding a female๐๐๐
So people who want to watch a BL series are tired of the way companies keep adapting same-sex love stories by making it straight.
There are 2 things (for now) I hate with the news K-Dramas:1/SHORTER + MULTIPLE SEASONS format. I want the old…
It's a spoiler so I'll add it there. I didn't even feel anything when the sister died. Meanwhile in another drama I cried for half of the FIRST episode because of 1/ some random guy dying in the beginning of episode 1. 2/the MC's dad dying at the end of the same episode.
(I won't say the name since it could be a spoiler to that other drama๐ )
There are 2 things (for now) I hate with the news K-Dramas:
1/SHORTER + MULTIPLE SEASONS format. I want the old "16-20 episodes + 1 season" format back. After all,that's why I prefer K-Drama (and Asian drama in general) to the 16+ seasons US series.
2/The characters. One thing I like in K-Drama is how the characters are written. They feel more "humans". Even the relationship between them is warmer. The bonds, stronger. I feel attached to them. For example I can cry for a character I only see once in a K-Drama while I don't feel anything for main character in American shows
I'm not saying it's a Manichean world where all K-Drama's characters are "humanely" written vs all American series' characters aren't. However the percentage of K-Drama is higher.
In this series I feel this lack of character's depth and human's bond, Even if 5-8 or Sa Wol died I wouldn't cry (And I cry easily. Sometime even if it's only a support character that we see in a flashback).
This is a good drama in some aspects. Plus all the actors did a good job. However there is that depth missing from the characters & the story. It's beautiful on the surface, but the more you dig, the more faults you find; mainly in the characters. Maybe we could've had a deeper story & characters if the drama was longer?
China is missing out bro- they shouldn't have banned bls
At least they could have left the censored BL like The untamed๐ข
I'm still waiting for Immortal and Eternal faith๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
(just with these titles I know it'll never happen: we need to be immortal & have eternal faith in China's industry to see the long list of BL novel's adaptations released)
Yes there is, but just not very obvious because of the censorship, and this one is over cautious. A better bromance…
I think that's because a lot of drama play on that blurry line between strong friendship & some homoerotic subtext to attract BL fans. So a lot of people don't know the definition anymore and see bromance as censored BL. Especially since lot of censored BL shows are tagged bromance.
Unfortunately they added the love triangle plot (always hated those). Well the love triangle with the girl was okay. At least it was resolved quickly and she didn't have any cute moment with him. I especially loved how, after agreeing to stay friends, she was so supportive of him and his love for the other guy.

P.S: There are Vietnamese BL (and other) on this website: https://world-of-bl.com/index.php/Vietnam/SeaHim
Though I think the update is slow and it doesn't have everything.
What do you mean? Which genre? Sorry I'm just curious๐
