These "interviews" in which Asian actors/idols react to questions they've been given ahead of time with answers that have been written for them are hilarious but also creepy af.
They sound like robots, knowing that the slightest deviation from what's expected, the slightest bit of humanity that might slip thru, could be the basis for some ridiculous "controversy" that could end their career and even their lives.
Episodes 1-4: Damn. I was never much of an action-thriller fan until Korea turned me into one. Bloodhounds is a great example of how it did that. The characters are given depth and humanity that makes me care what happens to them.
Lee Sang Yi's Hong U Jin is my favorite character, by far. Funny, loyal, strong, and HOT in a non-typical way.
I sure hope the plot comes up with a lot more ways to get the shirts (and pants?) off the two MLs in the remaining episodes. FIIIIIINE...
Unbelievably convincing fight scenes! Never thought I'd see a believable portrayal of two dudes taking on 20 others and beating the shit out of them, but I just did.
This watch is more than a little melancholy, though, as I'm continually reminded of how psycho Knetz and the Korean Celeb Suicide Machine sadistically, mercilessly hounded Kim Sae Ron to her death following her drunk driving incident in which no one was hurt and for which she had already paid the legal price of punishment.
Here's a serious f**k you to anyone who should happen upon this comment, who had anything at all to do with torturing her to death. Karma will get you, assholes.
I guess that you and I just have different sensibilities. That is why they make vanilla AND chocolate. I hope…
Thanks for responding. :)
I stumbled across BL and then Asian cinema, all about the same time six and a half years ago, and never looked back. Ever since, I rarely watch American/Western films. It's by far mostly Asian/International, with Korean my easy preference.
Not only did I not expect the ultra-high acting, production, direction values, but I didn't expect how much more intensely I connect with the characters. I have tried to analyze that, but it's only guesswork. I may have been Korean/Asian in an earlier life. :)
For years now, it feels strange to watch a film withOUT subtitles. I know many rubes don't like them, but with the continued success of Korean/International films/dramas on NF, that has to be changing rapidly. Foreign shows are regularly in the top 10 of even USNetflix, and the US is about as xenophobic as a country can be.
I know because I live here. :P BTW, I hate Tr*mp and voted against him all three times. But still, I'm sorry for what he's doing to the world.
I literally signed in for like the first time in a year or two just so I could like your comment, because it had…
You just made my day. Thanks. :)
You should read the hate messages I'm getting today from MDL Little Girls who tell me to kill myself, then block me so I can't respond. :D It's a tough part of the job, but someone has to do it.
Oh dear, Walmart, I'm so sorry. In what way were you "personally attacked?" I don't think mocking a person's lack of taste and perception in live-action story-telling counts as a "personal" attack.
That would be like if I made fun of the huge wart on the end of your nose.
Finale: Lord. This is the kind of BL that, if one of my normal, non-BL friends IRL watched it with me, they would turn and ask, "You actually watch this shit?" lol
By far, the best thing about the show is the love/sex scenes. From acting, to blocking, to cinematography, they are feature film level. Which is why I suspect a director other than the series's credited director handled them. Not kidding, they are that different and that much better.
There are far too many ridiculous plot holes and inconsistencies to mention, so I won't. If you choose to watch, skip ahead to the sex scenes. I think there are only three and a half of them, though.
As for the MLs, they'd do better to establish a co-OnlyFans account and stop inflicting their non-sexual acting upon us.

If it sucks, I'll know pretty quick and can drop out.

They were written for him to speak, just like lines in a drama.
Will Asian fans never catch on to how this game is played? lol
Damn.

I think we all know who's "watching Tom & Jerry and eating."

lol, yeah that's me, angst-filled people-attacker, who won't live long.
Thankfully, my early death will bring an end to my awareness of hilariously awful shows like this and bogus accounts like yours that support them.
I am paid $457,000.00 US for each comment I leave, provided it pisses off someone like you.
Thanks for helping me out.
As for the ravers...it's MDL. :)
Oh, but I do have a question: Do you also work for whoever did that actor's nose job?
I like!
Lord.

4/10 (For the four sex scenes.)
