Congrats on her upcoming marriage!
The fact that she doesn't have a main role is simply a CRIME!
I hope 2024 will be her year!

I really love those two together! The movie is surely a good conclusion to the series.
I think Hira finally started understanding that he isn't a "pebble" and that he is worthy of being loved and love back.
One day, I wish they would release a special episode or something, because I want to see Hira and Kiyoi in an actual, healthy relationship.

I'll give this season the same score I gave to the first one, even though I liked the previous season more.
Season 1 was kind of rushed, but those two just have some kind of magic... they pull you in and you want more and more of them.
Their relationship definitely isn't healthy, but if in S1 Kiyoi was kind of the bad guy, here it was definitely proved that he dearly loves Hira and tries his best, but Hira is the toxic one with his super low self-esteem and worship towards his lover.
"I don't want to understand you." has to be one of the most painful lines in a drama ever, wow...
Kiyoi the pouting and sulking baby... I just wanna keep him in my pocket <3
This season is a very good base and prequel for the movie though ~

This had some nice moments and it was definitely better than the 1st season, but the drama still couldn't grab me.
It was a bit boring at times, it had potential and the actors did a good job, but the side couples were nicer than the main, even though all 6 males are considered as main characters, I think we can all tell who the main couple is.
The last episode was cringy af, the couples together were awkward.
The drama is nice to pass time with, but nothing too impressive.
Also, am I the only one who noticed that a mic could be seen on top of some scenes? That looked unprofessional xD
All in all, I can't rate it more than 6 ~

This is definitely a drama, which knows how to touch a heart, with big thanks to Lee Dohyun.
All cast members did a splendid job, but Dohyun... ah, he's been my favourite actor for almost 3 years now and I'm so happy that more and more people are seeing his talent.
I am weak towards people with disability and Dohyun just portrayed that in a wonderful way - all the pain, the fury and self-hatred, the wanting to get better, the sparkle in his eyes after every little progress.
The drama truly shows how complicated familty relations are, parents often do things, which their kids just don't understand and approve of and vice versa, but in the end, a strong family bond is hard to break.
I can't help thinking that Young Soon is a very strong, but selfish person... she basically stole her son's life away from him and controlled him for years. She loved him, but in her own, cruel way... she pushed him too hard in order to get better and did it in a hurtful way.
The village gang was hilarious, the twins were adorable and Mi Jo and Kang Ho had a great chemistry as a couple.
The drama will surely always have a place in my heart.
A very solid 8,5/10 from me ~

Aaah, this had so much potential, but... it was so boring :/
The real MVP is Jo Chan Hyun, he was amazing! Such natural acting, he gives off positive vibes, truly a green flag Hyung hehe
Ki Hyun Woo also did his best, but... the plot was all over the place, it was a mess.
The first 3 episodes basically cover 1 day and then the next 5 - 3 months.
Things just didn't add up, there was no depth, how, why and when did Lee Jun fall for Choi Jun?
The drama is short as it is, there was no need to fill it up with so much office content, which didn't develop the plot in any way.
There should've been more about the past, it would've been more interesting and a good build up for the present.
They tried to make it up with some good kissing scenes (especially for a Korean BL) and the leads had nice chemistry, but overall, wasted potential.
I can't rate this more than 5,5-6/10 ~

I have such mixed feelings over this drama...
At times I liked it, at times I didn't.
At times I enjoyed the leads as a couple, at times I didn't.
Hong Wei Zhe bothered me during some moments, he looked liked a child even though he's in his 20s.
Overall... this wasn't bad, but it felt like a fanservice drama and something in the plot/pace of story was definitely lacking.

This movie was simply amazing, especially the first 60 minutes!
I'm so glad I didn't see a trailer before watching the movie, I just read the synopsis.
You watch and you think you've got everything figured out, but nope ~
Definitely a well-made thriller that keeps you on the edge, one of the best plot twists I've ever seen, if not the best.
Haneul was amazing, the setting, the colours, just everything.
The film really shows how a person's life can change in an instant, nothing is forever...
The movie isn't draggy at all, because it's not very long, totally worth the watch!
9/10 from me (wow, I think I've never given a movie more than an 8 xD)

I haven't read the books, but here Gu Hai (Wu Bi) is totally not so agressive, he still gets jealous easily and is overprotective of Su Yu, he even hits his uncle to defend him and so on.
I liked this more than Addicted mainly, because of the actors, they did a great job and the drama is still very simillar to Addicted, you should give it a try. :)

I watched Addicted last year without knowing that it's actually an incompleted drama and I'm glad they made a remake, because this was really, really good!
Mainly because of Jiong Min and Xu Bin's chemistry, they were great together!
I guess Addicted is a closer adaptation to the novel (I haven't read it), but Gu Hai (Wu Bi's character in Addicted) was a bit... too violent, even in his actions towards Luo Yin (Su Yu).
The family vibe was presented better here, because they had more time and episodes.
If you're wondering, Addiction basically covers the first half of Stay with me.
I already read a few articles that a S2 is confirmed, but... I don't believe anything until I see a teaser or an official release date xD But even if they do start filming soon... I don't think a 2024 release sounds possible, so hopefully we'll be able to see those two fluff balls in 2025 again, jelly bean Wu Bi with his death glares shall never be forgotten.
A steady 8,5/10 from me ~

ps, if you're looking for dramas with a similar vibe, I recommend HIStory3: Make Our Days Count (Taiwan) and Utsukushii Kare (Japan) ~

Um... this was definitely kinda boring.
They tried to make the drama all dramatic with the song issue, but then they left us hanging without a real outcome or solution to the problem.
The leads looked nice together and Son Hyun Woo did a great job, the definiton of a clumsy, happy virus.
The drama as a whole though is nothing that exciting or new, so I can't give it more than 6/10.

Changing one of the male leads in the last moment was a great decision, because Fluke did a wonderful job with his first main role. I definitely enjoyed his chemistry with Krist.
The drama surely managed to convey important life lessons and that's what I'll remember it with the most, time travelling is a weakness of mine and here it was done as it should.
I have some mixed feelings about the show overall though. I loved the first half, but after that the excitement kind of went down a bit for me. Kawi's character was sometimes too childish and unsure about his decisions.
I still really liked the drama and I'm going to miss these two dorks, but somehow I can't rate it more than 7,5-8/10.
'Be my Favourite' is on the good side when it comes to Thai BLs for sure, it's much better than other shows with higher ratings than this one.
Also, with Knot's character and his actions... who would truly keep such a person in their life and call them a friend??? I would totally stay away from him!

Those two have such a twisted relationship... Ren is definitely toxic and Kazuma isn't actually any better for putting up with everything, but that's love... you accept the other party's flaws and love him despite that.
I had no expectations for this drama, but I actually enjoyed it.
Some scenes between the younger characters were uncomfortable to watch, but the actors really looked like their older versions.
As always, Japanese actors need to work on their... acting, I'm saying that while having in mind that this show is the mains debut in acting.
Despite the ups and downs of the drama, I'll still give it 7/10 ~

I had hopes for this, but... the ratings are kinda misleading.
Throw in a kid and I'm sold, but this drama was kind of repetitive and boring.
CUTE, yes, but other than that... Maeyama Kuuga carried the whole show on his small back, he was beyond adorable and invested in everything. I liked the family theme and the relationship the Ueda family had, but the leads were too awkward with each other, I couldn't feel chemistry between them, until the very end they gave off the vibes of just good friends who support each other, they didn't do well as a couple.
It was still a pleasant drama to watch, but I can't give it more than 6,5/10 ~

I've watched quite a few dramas and documentaries, which revolve around the hwaseong serial killings, but that was years ago.
When I decided to check out this movie, I went back to read some details about the case and I was surprised to find out that the culprit was finally found, wow.
The movie itself has its flaws, Korean detectives from back in the day are always presented in such violent way, but the actors did a very good job at portraying the frustration and desperation, which the real detectives must've felt, that doesn't mean their ways were right though and the fact that a man was wrongfully accused for one of the murders and surved almost 20 years in jail while being innocent just further proves that.
The movie was very well done for its time, I'm not a big fan of Bong Joon Ho's works, but he made this movie right.

Light, funny, colourful, just makes you happy, perfect for the summer.
It's easy to watch, it's barely 3h long in total.
The plot is nothing unusual in the K-drama land, but it's really an "escape" drama, such series just really make me wanna leave the big city and live in the countryside. xD
Yoon Dojin did such a wonderful job as Yechan! He carried the whole drama on his back!
Considering the webtoon has 80 chapters, this has potential for a second season :)
& yes... Yechan is the bottom haha

Plot... what plot... I still don't know how or why the leads got together. Their relationship went from 0 to 100 in the matter of minutes without any real reason.
It's true that Haram was a way too pushy, which made Lee Jun's giving in even more weird, but oh well, they had their cute moments and that's that.
I can't give this more than 5-5,5/10.

I tried to stay away from this drama for as long as I could, but since I ended up watching The Glory and Reborn Rich with my mother, she really wanted to see DOTS when I told her that the leads were once married in real life.
Well... this drama is without a doubt very overrated and I understand why most people don't get the hype.
Personally, I think it's not only because of the screenwriter and the mains, but mainly because of the way Korean military is portrayed in the drama. Koreans really take pride in their army, so I think that's why the drama became so popular.
When it comes to the story and romance though... it was plain and boring.
Even the second couple didn't interest me much with their constant fights and dramatic overreacting.
The relationship between the doctors and Yoo Shi Jin x Seo Dae Young was great, the earthquake episodes were intriguing and the Greece/Albania setting was nice too, but other than that...
The drama is definitely not for everyone, I'm not saying it's bad, but there are far better ones.
When it comes to a romance with a soldier, I think "Crash Landing on You" is surely better.
All in all, the drama was okay, I don't regret watching it, but it's not as exciting as some describe it.
A shaky, but hopeful 6,5/10 from me.

This... had so much potential, but the drama just couldn't grab me.
Considering the number of episodes and their length, so much more could've happened, it could've had a better flow and storyline.
It was a bit boring at times and repetitive with some scenes.
Jae Won's trauma was vital for the story, but even that wasn't explored properly or dealt with. Jae Won's thoughts, dreams, family problems... his worries were so many and it's like they disappeared in the last two episodes, it wasn't very realistic. We can say that he tried to put all of that behind him, but it's just not that easy to let go.
The cinematography, visuals, editing, filming locations, OST were amazing though.
The actors also did a nice job, especially Im Jisub (I still can't shake off the thought that he looks just like Hwang Inyeop xD).
I'll still give this a 7/10, because a lot of work and thought was put into it, it just wasn't enough to grab my attention as a viewer to the fullest.

This... was such a nice surprise! The rating went down after the drama finished airing, so I was wondering if I should watch it and I've seen Seto Toshiki in a BL before and I didn't like his acting, so I had my doubts, but... Seto did much better here and as a whole, the drama wasn't boring, the flashbacks were a nice touch and filming locations were beautiful, the ost was good too.
People say that if a person changes too much in an instant, it's because he's dying... well, we still do take a lot of things for granted, even after Covid and everything else.
We should learn to pay attention to the little things and cherish our time on Earth and not waste our time with things, which don't bring us joy.
I have some questions about how Yuma and Ritsu met, but judging by their last talk, I can connect the dots.
Overall, an 8/10 from me, I'm glad I gave this a chance.
