I saw someone link this site but it's only in Chinese unfortunately. Better than nothing I suppose.https://v.have8.tv/drama/2/26903/dailymotion.html?0-1-0
No problem, I personally love crossdress dramas with some commitment to the storyline. There's not a lot out there so it's a shame this one received so little attention. Can't even properly judge its quality due to lack of subs.
All 3 couples are cute but the Korean dude definitely makes this worth watching. Sure the beginning starts off a bit rocky with kidnappings and weird family relations but once that is sorted out the 3 couples start to get their time to shine. Watch world most confident gay dude turn into worlds most panicked gay dude within the course of a second. I would watch an entire series solely for the Korean bro's adventures in trying to get someone to love him.
Thanks writers for your hard work! I've found multiple articles from this site very interesting and most importantly it brought me further in my drama journey across genres and cultures. I especially liked the one from a while ago about North Korean dramas but I also like to read the ones about interesting upcoming shows.
As someone who barely interacted with kdrama before 2019 (a newbie) I think I have my own view on things but I do understand and respect the veteran watchers here who are commited to the cause. Most kdramas I watch right now are those that are in recommended lists of kdrama experts (classic ones) or those that are highly praised (like Crash landing on You). So basically I still have a huge collection of classics to go through and will only watch current romantic kdrama with amazing ratings. If I'm bored I do look through all of the new releases and may pick a current kdrama with a unique premise but if the first episode doesn't speak to me I'll drop it. I'm usually not satisfied with ''good''/''okay'' romantic dramas, if I'm spending my time on a series it better have something amazing going for it. Be it chemistry, comedy, mystery or the storyline. So if you're very bothered by the lack of quality right now I'd suggest dropping shows earlier, rewatch classics and patiently wait for the few actual good shows that release in a year.
This Japanese BL drama had some strong Youtube recommendations and it's been posted about in some BL-circles lately so I decided to watch it to see what the hype was about. I encountered 5 episodes of the most wholesome and pure relationship development in a BL that I've ever seen. I definitely recommend watching this for happy feelings and a realistic story.
Aren't there enough Chinese dramas with straight couples already? Also, even if they showed a bit of their romance, it'd still only be considered bromance since BL includes a lot more than just hints at love.
Very typical Japanese highschool movie but always fun to see them try something different with a girl as the prince-type and a guy as the princess-type. The clothing styles are very stylish, especially the girls band. Reminds me of some mix between emo styles and lolita styles. Everyone in the guys school is into the girly guy and everyone in the girls school looks up to the cool ladies from the band. For BL fans: There's some scenes between the main girly guy and some of his male schoolmates but nothing big and he really looks a LOT like a girl.
The actress really passes as an attractive guy very well (the short haircut fits her great). Anyway, apparently the crossdressing girl transfers to an all girl school to discover the reason for her friends suicide by becoming a male problem student? She tries to transform other female problem students into better people? This is probably one of those series that's gonna disappear into oblivion because of lack of subs. Crossdressing series are either wellknown or just completely disappear and I fear it's the latter in this case. !!!Update!!!: A few episodes were missing but from the romantic flashbacks from episode 43 I can gather that there were a lot of borderline bromance moments between the crossdressing girl and her male love interest (the dude has a severe anxiety at times). I'd definitely completely watch this if there were subs as I loved shows with similar plotpoints. I don't agree with the decision to put a long wig on the main character at the end though, a short hairstyle fits her way better and makes her look stylish.
This Japanese drama.. its one of those weird ones from Japan (I've honestly seen weirder though). Basically you have this masochistic rich guy who stalks a strong office lady because she was the only one who dared to roast him. This premise doesn't seem that great but the way it's performed in this drama is pretty hilarious. I got some major secondhand emberassment from this series though but that's probably a good sign that it's immersive. I really felt for the poor office lady who just wanted a peaceful life without people thinking she's weird. The absurdity will probably make you laugh so give it a try.
Lots of remakes of this one. It's a decent drama with an interesting premise and a lesson in what matters when looking for a relationship. I don't condone the actions of main lead but I did understand her struggle between a comfortable marriage and an odd marriage.
I have a similar feeling. I wouldn't call it cringe worthy, but it is boring. I'm not sure I'll make it past the…
The chemistry takes a LONG time to develop but some would say that has added to the charm of the series (although for new watchers it can be annoying to wait for that). I personally watched this series as one of my first Thai dramas so everything was new for me (the Thai language, culture and the hazing) so that helped get me through less eventfull episodes. If you already know the basic setup of a Thai BL then it might be a bit more boring to experience since everything is recognisable in that case. Still, I loved watching their journey from enemies to friends and finally to lovers. Watching the characters make personal improvements, get over themselves and gain respect for each other was a wholesome experience. However, again, everyone has a different viewing experience or it might just really not be your taste.
I've never skipped through a drama before but I had to because this was so boring I could feel my brain cells…
It's certainly not a drama for everyone. First of all, there's way less fanservice in comparison to modern BL dramas and you'll have to wait a long time before the relationship starts. However, SOTUS just carried something special to it and was one of the important series in Thai BL history. If you like the ''haters to lovers'' trope enough (and the gay confusion) then you'll be able to watch this since they stretch that out a lot more than usual. This means less fanservice but more emotional scenes where characters rethink their whole lives and make some decisions with a lot of emotional weight to them.
The name of the drama is a bit weird but ok. I haven't seen the trailer but I can just imagine some single catlady is living her best life and I fully support that. It's still a cat though.. Kinda unsure how any romance would work between them/if there is romance.
This is weird but I loved seeing our boy getting manhandled by that hot oldest heir lol
Oldest son (Korean dude) is also my fav. I think he is a bit rough at first which I would normally dislike for a love interest but the way he suddenly gets shy sometimes really completed the picture for me. It also helpes that he goes into full ''hyung''-mode and takes care of this dude he barely knows while everyone else knows him as a cold person. He's already planning to make this dude his sworn brother which is basically the point in C-dramas/K-dramas where they illustrate that the love is incredibly strong between them but 1 of them doesn't want to start a real relationship (yet).
I feel like I've watched this show 100 times... Cant Asian drama writers get some original material? Maybe I need…
Well its either girl-phobia or mysophobia. Luckily there's always ONE girl in the world that is the exception. But yea it's just the unfortunate case that most rich dudes would never go for a common girl. So might as well give the guy some trauma to induce the potential of love thanks to mental illness. You can only watch a few rich guys get easily cured from mental illness through the power of love before it gets old. Unfortunately, I'll still be the one watching it at the end of the day. Habits die hard.
