A little bit boring but pretty moving
It''s pretty well done for a short movie. It manages to capture quite a lot in a short period without feeling rushed. In fact, it's a little too slow paced for me lolIt's kinda boring, although it's touching and moving at same time
I guess, it depends on what you're looking for
It's a nice movie to watch on a rainy day where you just wanna chill. Nothing dramatic, nothing thrilling, or too fancy
Just sweet friendship, lovely moments and simple story.

Gimme a Morio in my life!
The first episode got me ROFL, so funny that I just want to watch this cute couple more.Despite the all the fluff, this show is more educational and inspiring than one might expect
I learnt a lot about what it means to be visually impaired and it also raises social awareness, so people are more mindful about braille blocks, for example. Sometimes, people don't mean it, but can simply be ignorant, which is why a show like this is helpful to raise social awareness, making the world a better place for all.
Yet, it's done in a cute, fluffy, funny, loving and inspiring way. Who says inspiring show has to be heavy all the time right?!
I love how Morio and Yukiko helps each other to see the best in themselves, showing a different perspective of the world to one another. I also love how they encourage and uplift one another. It's honestly really heartwarming until....
The unnecessary twists and turns, which makes this show 9 instead of 10! This is why:
Minus another 0.5 point for making the show more complicated than needed. It started out as really plain and sweet show, and then suddenly lots of rollercoaster. It feels almost like "Did we change genre halfway?" Lol
Minus 0.5 point for the ending between Shishio and Izumi! If he doesn't like woman, why propose to stay with her? and worse..why did she accept?! This is really frustrating. The show could have ended so perfectly, if it's not for this bit
But, I'm glad that the ending is good for the main leads at least! Overall, it's a great show.
I feel very positively uplifted, especially by Morio's spirit of "Following your dreams and make it fun and work for it!"

Simple, cute, story
This makes a perfect light watch before sleep, or when you're in between shows, or taking a break from overbinge of something else lol...It's cute and nice show. Nothing fancy, I mean it's only an hour
I'd say, its kinda, its okay to miss it, but it also doesnt hurt to watch
Thats the kind of show this is, one of the ML is real cute though.

Let the BL pink love fills you up!
The ending is amazing, especially the last 2 episodes!Ep 9 is absolutely hilarious. A real life comedy of "Reality vs Expectation" lol. Ep 10 is so sweet, especially the ending scene, so touching and the visual of Yanase, I died! lol
I really love the part where Yanase wrote down a list and it got checked. Its just so swet!
The show started out really great and started to flatten a bit, but the last 2 episodes saved it! If not, for that "flat period" in middle, it would have been 10/10!
No major plot. Simple story of 2 ML falling in love.
I really love it, it's not toxic, it's cute, its funny, its healthy and its just heartwarming,
Its a lighthearted comedy romance for those who needs a break after watching a heavy show, if u know what I mean
A show where you no need to think but just stare and let the visuals and the BL pink love fills you up.
This is the kind of show for it. It's actually way better than I thought. I'm glad I wactehd it!

Watch this if you like to torture yourself, lol
I usually don't like slowburn BL, but surprisingly end up watching this one. Well, primarily because I enjoyed the 1st part of Monday-Thursday, and can't wait to see the ending.But, this one....Friday-Sunday, I think my heart stopped for a few times. At some point, I even felt my heat ached.
Because, its such a slowburn, that I died.
Oh gist, if it hasn't been a happy ending, I'd totally go crazy!
At least, I'm happy with the ending in the end. Otherwise, its pretty cute, how Seiryo waited for Yuzuru in station everyday. You know..little thing that matters and make a simple love, beautiful
Overall, its a beautiful romance, but the process can be overbearing.

Here for SJK, but fell for Babo!
The acting of both MLs are on fire! I mean....who would have thought a cute innocent intern turned out to be a psychopath Babo? Are they even the same person? Geez!Not to mention the ruthless mafia lawyer turned a sweet gay prince charming turned a flower boy shaman. Its like watching costume play! haha
This shows the acting skills of both MLs are top tier, its SO good and its what really save the show!
Without them, this show probably wouldn't be as good and enjoyable
Now, these are minor details I feel would have made it 10/10 if its better
1. It could be cut down to 12 episodes or so. The 1st 7 episodes are so thrilling and it just went on draggy and complicated. It really doesn't have to be that fancily complicated, it just becomes a nuisance. Also, too much emphasis on the "finding gold" part that its just irritating. Like, I get it..now, can we find it?
2. The first few episodes are cringey, which I feel what made people dropped. They could improved the style of comedy. Actually, after that few scenes, some of the comedy are really good. Its just that few scenes
3. The lack of sparks between ML and FL. IT's non existence and then they end up kissing? Like, where does this come from? I know the focus isn't on the romance which I am okay, but at least, there gotta be some sparks, so we are excited when they kiss, right? I usually am excited with such scenes but here, Im just like...how and why and wtf?
Also, the show gets darker and darker...not to mention gruel towards the end. Its not for everyone definitely
I'll still recommend this because of the excellent acting. If its not to your liking, you can drop it then.

Not your average dating show!!
I can't believe I put this off for so long. I generally hated dating show as it tends to be cruel and even toxic with the vibes of "fighting against each other to get the goal". But, this show is NOTHING like this at all!Sure, there are disappointments and hearfelt moments, but everyone is like family
No unnecessary backstabbing, gossips or drama to outdo each other.
Despite the results, I feel everyone has a chance to explore and express their feelings, allowing for closure for everyone, in a balanced way.
Of course, I'm super happy that my favorite couple walked away as a couple!
I highly recommend this show, it makes my heart flutter, so warm and cute and real at same time!

What a sweet wrap!
Just like the name suggests, it marks a new beginning for them :)I love how short, sweet and beautiful this 15 mins is. It's a nice wrap for this series and definitely a bonus for the fans! For those who think this series is just all about spicy scene, this movie just shows you otherwise!!
Also, this one is funny, it has a lighter tone and atmosphere compared to the other series.
That's a nice change! Oh, and I love Izuka's acting and facial expressions here too.
Overall, this movie makes me smile and hearwarming. SO good!
For those who are new to this series, this movie wouldn't make sense. Do consider watching the series, this movie should be the LAST one to watch in the series. As for the series itself, I watch it in a reverse order and still finds it good, doesn't matter at all. Just make sure this one comes last!

The actors deserve a better storyline
It has great acting for the most parts. The acting is above the average BL acting (which is mostly cringey haha)However, the show overall could use a better storyline. The story is exactly as the synopsis (no surprise or plot twist lol), but I'm okay with that. What I am not okay with is the amount of fillers. It became draggy and meaningless over time
It started out great initially, I was laughing a lot and enjoying at first few episodes and it just went downhill.
Still....Welldone for the acting, especially chemistry for PitchBank (They need a series of their own!)
Overall, I give full credits to the great acting, and think this show could have been a hit with such great casts, if only the storyline, plot and execution is better.

Just rewatched it again!
If you simply wanna watch TharnType's love for each other, then you're in for a treat. This is a simple movie without complex drama or storyline, unlike the drama itself.I really enjoy this, especially the part where they visited Type's father. It's really funny, and perhaps come say childish, but hey, its a show, its meant to be entertaining :)
Needless to say, I enjoy watching Tharn Type, beyond the normal jealousy scenes. They portray true love, understanding and embracing one another, almost like they move to next stage of relationship.
While TharnType as a series isn't my favorite due to its storyline, but as a couple, they are still one of my favorite because they never fail to make my heart flutter and melts, each time. I also love how passionate they are with each other, like they can't get enough of each other!

Skip Synopsis, Click Watch Instead
I almost skipped the show because of the synopsis! I though its another petty revenge show, hence I wasn't keen. But, I gave OffGun a chance lol...I love the social satire displayed. It's also brilliant how this show managed to cover several issues from capitalism, LGBT, social injustice....and throw us some BL hot stuff in between.
They did it WITHOUT having to do any extreme hot sex scene to sell the show, or unnecessary toxicity in the show.
Is the show realistic? Perhaps, not totally, there are some loophole here and there, but hey...it's called a show for a reason.
What's important is this show is not only entertaining and, thrilling, but it is also thought provoking.
Of course, OffGun Chemistry fills my cup up with their love and sweet moments. Oh, did I mention that their acting, especially Gun's has improved so much!!! It's also of the rare BLs where all the casts, boy or girls are very lovable!
Give it a try, it's really good, I really enjoy it a lot...so much so that I didn't skip any parts at all!

Good drama for the "in-between"
If you're in between dramas, meaning running out of drama to watch or need a break from usual plot, this could be a nice filler during that timeIts nice to watch short drama, especially if you're tired of the dragging from Kdramas or the "take forever to confess" storyline in BL, or just general toxicity in BL.
Its cool to actually see couple progress fast enough in this drama.
I love how it's short and sweet. The couple is REALLY sweet.
I've enjoyed most episodes, but found that it's a bit rushed towards the ending. Last 2 episodes are somewhat hasty, especially episode 6
But, given at how short the drama is, they have done well.

Confidential Assignment 2: International

Best Action Duo
Hyun Bin + Daniel Wu? I'll take this anytime!Seriously thou, this show is very wellmade. I actually enjoy this better than the first one. This shows how they progress and improvise! It is common for the 2nd show to be not as good as first, but this isn't the case here!
Love how it is thrilling, intense and yet funny at same time, what a perfect blend!
The female leads definitely made the otherwise action show, lighten up,
I hope they'll make Confidential Assignment 3 too!!!

Theory of Love: Special Episode "Stand By Me"
0 people found this review helpful
Sweet, fuzzy and lovely ending
This special gives a real neat completion to the series. It even talks about how it's no longer "theory of love" but something else.I also appreciate how Kai and Third relationship has grown, especially how much more mature Kai is.
It is a very nice 1 hour watch to warm your heart, brighten your smile and nourish your sleep, before you go for a good night sleep, filled with sweet, fuzzy and love
I also love the ending, not just romance wise, but work wise. It's inspiring to watch how they are passionate about their work and pursuing their dreams while supporting each other.
Total worth it to watch, and rewatch!

Underrated show: Totally Worth a shoT!
Boy, it's way better than I thought it'd be. I actually enjoy this much more than some of the more well-known BLsLet's start with. I BARELY skipped any scenes, that is how engaging it is.
I guess having it at only 7 episodes cut out the unnecessary filler and details, making it really sweet and compact to watch.
Love the chemistry between the couple too! Plus, it's also funny and cute in its own way. Furthermore, I actually love all characters in the show, which is also rare!
You know how we watch BL for the main couple mostly? Here, I watch for all of them! Of course, my favorite is still the main couple thou :P
Point is, it's WORTH WATCHING, despite the lower rating here in MDL
