Actor Kang Seo Joon is in trouble because he beat up his best friend, also an actor, in one of the bars. But in reality it was different and Kang doesn't remember much because he was drunk, only his friend got into a fight with a bar guest and blamed it on Kang to hurt him in public opinion and climb the popularity ladder ahead of him. The owner of the agency Kim Pil Hyun, who represents Kang, has to quickly "clean up" him from his luxury apartment to one of his rental houses in the suburbs of Seoul due to intrusive journalists for a while, and pushes him to the young tenant, an introverted, modest and order-loving chef from a bistro Han Ji Woo, who is waiting for a roommate so he doesn't have to pay such a high rent himself.
It's rare for me to look at how much is left until the end, because I wish there were many more episodes ahead of me (I have the opposite tendency with most other BL series). No unnecessary detours and running the story into curls that only delay and lead nowhere, an excellent contrast of the silent and wall-building Han and the chatty Kang with an often magical smile, who always says what he thinks and most importantly - these two beings are hit by the arrow of the most beautiful feeling in the world, what anyone and anywhere could wish for. How will they deal with it when the circumstances of each of them are completely different and public opinion in South Korea is not in favor of such relationships, especially when one of them is a famous actor?

Moc se mi tento menší seriál líbil. Jako kdyby ani nebyl z Filipín (až na učitelku). Příběh jednoduchý, bez okrasných nebo zbytečně zdržujících kudrlinek, covidově SOUČASNÝ a MODERNÍ. Sympatičtí herci, krásná úvodní píseň (jeden bod za Zvuk jsem snížil za to, že v pátém a především čtvrtém díle je uprostřed hudba hodně rozladěná, falešná), výborný střih a zpracování. Zásluhu na skvělém dojmu mají všichni herci, ale především dva hlavní - dvacetiletý JC Alcantara (Mico) a pětadvacetiletý Tony Labrusca (Xavier), narozený v USA a především tvůrci samotní, kteří za minimalistické náklady vytvořili tento roztomilý pandemický seriálek.

The character of Gavreel was played very nicely. A smile accompanied this series during the pandemic for a considerable part, although there were also sadder moments. This part is definitely one of the best, above average, the creators handled the time of the first wave of covid very well, it is original in its processing and it is interesting that not only nice and handsome actors played there, but also actresses (not a single twisted creature). We had to wait until the last episode for the kiss, and it was a beautiful conclusion to this successful series.

And now the pros. Once the film is Thai, I feel freer because I know that where it is necessary to portray the story, there may (or may not) be intimate actors, unlike the current Chinese-censored production. Decent quality copy with easy to read English subtitles and looks good on the boys, especially Daniel.

I had to go back and watch some scenes in the movie again because of the bad picture quality and English. subtitles and if I think about the "badness" then a fairly decent plot unfolds with well-known pinoy actors (Coco, Sid), with a small component of gay content and an ending that I did not expect...

Anyway, right at the beginning and with the previews, one could have expected a big story, drama, but after the first episode, everything slipped into a mini-form, both in the cast, the length of the episodes and the story itself. Apparently, the creators also struggled with a low budget.
The story, the idea (perhaps even according to reality) excellent, but for the most part unused, the potential that was offered was tons - like not many places, really a pity. But I don't mean to punish the creator.
The main three characters are cast by three stars from other Korean series and projects that are very well rated here on GT - Where Your Eyes Linger (Jang) - sk tit, Mr. Heart (Lee) - series sk tit and movie cz tit by monvi and Wish You II (Kang) - has cz tit by karcikarl, I list the civil nicknames of the actors in parentheses and the actors are also listed in that order on the three-photo in the Pictures folder. I liked Lee - Choi Ki Wan the most in terms of character and acting, who appeared disguised as a woman for 95% of the series.
Extremely pleasant, delicious, but I was impressed by the set, costumes, and sound. I learned how Koreans used to dress, how they lived. Overall satisfaction, BUT ... with a hugely wasted potential of the subject ...

Podobně jako ve snímku Lodi stejný režisér i zde řeší otázku gay a hetero mužů a jejich vzájemného erotična. Zatímco v Lodi heterák Brent netušil, že je uspáván a zneužíván fanatickým gayem, zde v tomto filmu jsou hetero muži postaveni před hotovou věc za "plného vědomí". Hodnotím tak jak hodnotím a ubližovat filmu, který byl vyroben za tímto účelem a tvůrci věděli, že vysokého ratingu nedosáhnou, rozhodně více nehodlám.

The school was suppressed a lot in the first episodes and disappeared in the second phase, more eroticism came to the fore in the final episodes, the audience will enjoy it mainly with the Tutor-Figther duo, which after many series, when after a long wait at the end you will see max. or not even here, there is a shift.
Everything was top notch, especially the music and processing, the camera, the editing, the artistic aspect, you can also enjoy the Thai beaches and islands.
If you don't need all the BL series and choose only the best pieces, don't put one review on here, which is rather discouraging with its below-average rating, and I recommend this series to you.
Dle mě jeden z nejlepších thajských BL seriálů roku 2020. Kvarteto hlavních hrdinů v civilním věku 28,25,22 a 20 let s pečlivě načesanými afinkami rozehrálo pod vedením tvůrců partii, která není zcela běžným formátem tohoto druhu seriálů. Tutor se svou dívčí tvářičkou a s některými úsměvy jak měsíček na hnoji (v dobrém), nakažlivě přitažlivý Fighter, dlouhán Saifah a maličký Zon. Když tady monvi píše, že se "zhlídnul v thajských klucích", tak já bych doplnil - pro mě byl moc sympatický Day (dal jsem ho do Obrázků, je druhý seshora).
Škola byla hodně potlačena v prvních dílech a v druhé fázi vymizela, do popředí se protlačila větší erotičnost v závěrečných dílech, diváci si ji užijí hlavně u dvojice Tutor-Figther, což po mnoha seriálech, kdy po dlouhém čekání na konci uvidíte max. pusinku a nebo ani tu ne, je posun.
Vše bylo na výši, především hudba a zpracování, kamera, střih, výtvarná stránka, užít si můžete i thajských pláží a ostrůvků.
Kdo zrovna nemusí všechny BL seriály a vybírá si jen nejlepší kousky, nedejte na zdejší jednu recenzi, která svým podprůměrným ohodnocením spíše odradí a za mě Vám tento seriál doporučuji.

Note: while staying (2022) in the southern hemisphere, I turn on the TV and Jerome Ponce jumps out at me on the Novela E Plus channel (probably for southern African countries) in the English-dubbed series A Soldier's Heart (gay character, but 110 episodes) and we can look forward to the continuation of the gay love from this series in the newly prepared project PhilJie's Heart with Jerome Ponce and Yves Flores (Stuck On You).
Byl to zatím NEJREALISTIČTĚJŠÍ seriál pinoy produkce, co jsem viděl a troufnu si říci, že zatím pro mě i jeden z nejlepších BL projektů poslední doby. Ani se nedivím, že oba hlavní představitelé Ian Pangilinan a Paolo Pangilinan (Vlad a Karl) získali jakousi tu cenu BL - RAWR Awards Tandem roku 2020.
Oproti přecukrovaným BL pohádkám s nerealistickým dějem a scénáristickými zvraty hned od prvního dílu vstoupíte sice do jednoduchého příběhu, ale za přispění herců, scénáře, režiséra a dalších tvůrců, NAPROSTO SKVĚLÉ, KOUZELNÉ HUDBY, podtrhující celý příběh a pocit z něj, a projedete celým seriálem bez postranních zdržovacích sraček jako máslem a na konci si řeknete, že takto by se to mohlo stát i ve skutečnosti. Až jsem si říkal, kde jsou ty ohňostroje, proudy umělých slz a soplů a přešťastných komparzistů na konci. Dobře je zahraná i postava Vladovy sestry Judit (Adrienne Vergara).

This short film has a lot going for it
This short film has a lot going for it, it features a young man who is gay and can't hear yet, which are two big handicaps against the intolerance of a part of society. Erotic, the absence of hearing, first sex, flare-up, desire, hope, disappointment ... who can do it, who wants the "something" that the creators of this Korean short offer, will take, will take .. simply this short does not play a fairy tale , it is LIFE itself ...This short film has a lot going for it, it features a young man who is gay and can't hear yet, which are two big handicaps against the intolerance of a part of society.

Vtipný námět, kdy vpadají oba hrdinové jeden do druhého jejich životů a naopak, svižně zahráno, na čínské poměry pěkná bromance ve druhé půli, herci dokázali, že by měli navíc, nebýt debilního nařízení neomylné strany, nebo spíše jejího rudého autokratického "vůdce". Překvapivě působívý závěr. Jen mi asi třikrát vynechával zvuk... Rozhodně nadprůměr.

Absolute reality and humanity
In this hetero ocean, two fish appear, each with its own sea and deep down they have doubts about who they really are...Japan produces LGBTQ+ projects, ranging from complete strongholds to completely unrealistic pieces based on manga, but still Japanese society as a whole is not so open to human differences on the outside, traditions and uniformity are adhered to. This wonderful piece is proof of how these two characters were shy and approached their inner differences so cautiously. That is why, in my opinion, this series is so different from most others, which offer unreality, fairy tales and often we don't find many hetero characters in the project. Thanks to the director, the entire team and both guys who put that special Japanese charm and absolute REALITY into it, it is civil, HUMAN and for me not 10/10, but 11/10.
Someone here mentions whether the project would have been so highly rated if it weren't for BL. Of course it wasn't. After all, the hetero characters wouldn't have to fumble around so much, come to terms with their difference on the outside, and it would have been a completely normal series.

Hned na začátku bylo vidět, že Korejci patří už k těm severnějším asijským rasám a mnozí mají hodně vystouplé lícní kosti (ne všichni), které stlačí oči do dvou štěrbin. Oba kluci byli od začátku sympatičtí, prostě přátelé ze školy blbli. Holčina mi zezačátku připadala mírně praštěná, ale takto to děj chtěl. A najednou se stalo, že z kamaráda se vyklubal kamaRÁÁÁD. Hrozně hezky, jednoduše a pravdivě vykresleno v pár minutách a spolu s hudbou a zpracováním na velmi solidní úrovni jsem nakonec mile překvapen a děkuji karcikarlovi za jeho další překlad a výběr příjemného filmu.
