I just finished my third watch. The first time, I was like, "what?" The second time I was like, "oh, I'm sort of beginning to get this..." This third time I laughed my freaking butt off. This movie will offend and bore the easily-offended and the boring, which makes me like it more. This film is not for them.
Kim Yeong Taek, the ML gives a performance that is remarkable in every way. Funny, soulful, tender, sensitive, jerk-ish, conflicted, sad, happy, hopeful, angry, crazy, you name it, this guy plays it and well. All four supporting male actors are excellent too. The college guy and the sergeant nearly steal the show. And then there is the sergeant's girlfriend who shows up in the latter half and also almost walks away with the film. However, KYT's characterization and acting are more than strong enough to withstand the competition
If you have a sense of humor, don't mind being challenged, enjoy good acting, and are open to quirky flicks that sometimes take a second or third viewing to appreciate; and can relax and let something you didn't get or like at first grow on you, then this is for YOU.
I hated absolutely everything about this. How did the director come up with a story like this after taking part…
Wow. You are WAY too uptight and fake-moralistic to appreciate this hysterically funny film. I bet you are fun at parties. hahaha
Just to be certain I understand: You were outraged and offended by everything you saw here but you watched to the bitter end because...? Because you liked something about it and found it worth sticking with, even if only to fuel your faux-righteous outrage, which you so gleefully shared above, that's why.
I would say I am glad you were offended because people like you need offending, except that I don't buy you were offended in the least. Get some self-awareness.
Yes, yes, yes...I know, I know...how DARE I reply to a four-year-old comment, blah blah blah. The only thing dumber than replying to a comment one left four years ago would be REPLYING to the reply to the four-year-old comment one left after one came back and read it.
MDL is infested with your type, which I call Shock-roaches. You adore that rush you get when being "shocked" and outraged that a film so offensive exists. This infestation explains the low rating above. Most good films are rated poorly on MDL for this reason.
I used to long for some kind of insecticide I could spray through my computer to rid this place of you and yours, but I've come to cherish your presence as a source of humor. Thanks for that.
A significant portion of my comments are extended ones noting what I did and did not like about this or that show, usually with plenty of snark and intended hilarity. Not all of it lands. The assertion that "all" my comments are "incredibly and incessantly negative" is BS.
After leaving my own comments, I often read and respond to the comments of others. If my frequently acerbic and smartass replies upset you, again with that "block" button.
Strange that you don't recall friend-requesting me. hmmm...
How odd that you wrote this and then friend-requested me. lol
It's amusing to receive your comment at this point. You should have read me a couple of years back...I was far "nastier" than I am now. I've worked with the local MDL therapist and cleaned up my act considerably. :D
People can enjoy whatever they want and comment however they choose. And viciously cruel and nasty people like me can reply in a like manner. That is how comments work.
The obvious solution for you is to block me. Have you considered that option? It's right there at the top of my profile page. Perhaps your friend request was meant to be a block and you hit the wrong button. :) If so, it's never too late...
Finally, the word "masterpiece" IS the most abused and overused word on MDL. :) Toodles!
She's a full time paid employee working overtime who goes around creating new accounts to spam other genuine critical…
lol Oh B, you poor, abused victim. You put up a review, people get to read and react and comment about it. If you can't handle that, stop putting yourself out there. Have you considered simply ignoring comments you don't like? It's an option, really it is!
Even though the plot is mediocre, the production value is great and that rating is to mainly differentiate itself…
I would MUCH rather watch a great plot with good acting and a low budget than vice versa. Who cares how good production values are if they are in service of a mediocre and in this case melodramatic, plot if it doesn't even fulfill its own promise? This makes no sense.
How does a rating here "differentiate itself?" Isn't it supposed to be an average of ratings given it by MDL commenters/viewers? Oh, I forgot about the leeway the system here gives MDL to manipulate the ratings as it sees fit as determined by vaguely worded fine print.
This is far better than most gay short films I've seen. I love discovering one that's new to me even if it is already four years old.
The acting, except for the stereotype mother, is quite natural and good. My heart breaks for the partner who literally had to climb back into the closet to accommodate his selfish partner's sham marriage. I hope he maintains his self-respect and says this ends or I'm out.
Do you receive a salary for this type of fawning review of an embarrassingly bad show, or are you paid per piece? I'm asking because I'm interested in writing my own reviews for pay and am seeking your advice on how to get started.
Terrible, awful, pathetic. I can make myself watch no longer...dropped after 3 eps.
This is particularly painful because nothing but BL trash comes out of Thailand or the Philippines anymore, which leaves me with Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. Now this type of cheesy dreck is turning up more frequently out of Korea; Taiwan too. I am near despair. My personal BL Golden Age seems to be drawing to a close...
Dropping.
1/10
haha...the 8.3/10 rating here tells you everything you need to know about the MDL BL viewership's taste level and gullibility. Sad but also hilarious. :D

That taken care of, what was it you meant to get at with your question? I love questions. :)
How many times did you end up watching this film? :D

Recommended. I saw it at the link below.

Good God. Why does shit like this exist?
How odd, to desire that the main feature and draw of a drama be something that just "happens" to be gay. Why don't you just watch a different genre?
