Article 5 Underrated Korean Dramas That Are Definitely Worth Your Time!
"Move to Heaven" is underrated? Every review I have read has given this drama an extremely high rating and high praises. Even MDL has an extremely high rating for this drama. I think it is disingenuous to categorize Move to Heaven in the underrated drama bucket given the universal acclaim that it has received from every notable reviewer out there.

Some users got toxic on the page so the admins disabled it to get things under control. They said it’s temporary…
I hear ya. That is a really good advise that a lot of people could use, me included.

Does anyone know why Comments are disabled on the MDL page for The Untamed? What happened there that they had to do that? I hope the comments for WOH don't see a similar fate.

Why are you flagging a link/URL as a spoiler? It is a link.

Does anyone know if there is an issue with ratings on this site? This show is stuck at 9 from 147 users for quite a few days now.

There is a lot of hinting, suggestions, homoerotic subtext, clever twists, slow burning tension, innuendos, poetry,…
Yes, but, the real question is - Do you? Doesn't seem like it.

If the meaning of BL here is just a bromance I’m in. Hope you can help me to confirm it.
There is a lot of hinting, suggestions, homoerotic subtext, clever twists, slow burning tension, innuendos, poetry, bone-throwing that is going, but there is absolutely no depiction of same-sex romance. I have always felt that technically that classifies as Queerbaiting and not exactly BL, but everytime I have expressed my opinion on that I have been savagely and viciously attacked. The original novel is very much a BL novel, but this drama adaptation in my mind is not BL, but it is queerbaiting, because the same-sex "romance" is only suggested and hinted at and purely on the viewers interpretation.

Does it have a happy ending?? I figured it would but then i saw some very minor spoilers and now im not so sure…
No, unfortunately it does not have a happy ending if you are watching it on Netflix or Amazon because the 5 minutes of clip and it really is just a little clip but what a lot of people seem to refer to it as "the special episode" or "ep 37" is not available on any of the platforms except Youku.

Please bear with me with my dumb question but...does MDL lock the rating for dramas after sometime? I don't understand…
You read my mind. This drama seems to be stuck in a ratings purgatory. It has not moved a decimal from 8.6 since forever!

Title Immortality
I don't understand why Mainland China does these types of drama. I almost wish they left BL dramas to Taiwan or…
Hey listen, no one is saying that they need to start showing nudity and start adding explicit sex scenes between two men to make it more realistic, but the problem is that ALL of the time and ALL of the supposed same-sex romance is ALWAYS implied and suggestive either through hinting or poetry or sub-text, etc. ALL THE TIME!! Which is not the case in opposite sex dramas. It is so obvious that it is being done in servitude to the homophobic censorship regulations in China that these type of shows end up being straight up Queerbaiting which I think does more harm than good to the LGBT community.

He will not become a huge star because of this. SML role. Mark my words.
Honestly I think we just live in a very intolerant world where if you express an opinion that people don't agree with then you get viciously and savagely attacked.

Title Itaewon Class
A show where apparently no one ages. I haven't finished watching this show and they have so far shown a 14-year story arc and Park Seo-joon's character Park Sae-Ro-Yi hasn't aged a bit. Even his hairstyle is exactly the same the entire time during the 14+ year story arc.

I just watched Tant Jun sang in move to heaven which he was brilliant!! So looking forward to his acting in this…
Tang Joon-sang is amazing. Not only was he in Move to Heaven, but he was also in Crash Landing On You and he was brilliant.
