Why are you comparing a 2hrs movie to a 40+ episodes drama anyways? Not discrediting UT in any way but of course…
I see your line of thinking. If you require the number of eps as a criteria for comparison, then yes TU would not be a good choice.
It really depends on how strict you want to be. If eps is the only criteria, then I can list many bromance movies that I find more convincing. But if you require more, say that it has to be like TYYM, that it's Chinese, it's 'Wuxia', it's non-blood related bromance, etc etc. , then that'll be harder.
If you're willing to forgo the fact that they have to be non-blood related, but keep the eps, then the movie "The Untamed: Fatal Journey" would be my choice. The 'bromance' there I'd discribe it as 'solid' and 'stable', and in that sense it was convincing.
If you are willing to forgo more criterias, except the number of eps, then there are many movies I can list. Inseperable brothers and My Annoying Brother are two Korean modern bromance movies I absolutly love and the 'bromance' is undeniably good . IB are friends, MAB are blood related.
Your point about the 'bromance' was not the main point of the movie is noted. I may have had expectations since it's tagged 'bromance'. Probably that's why it was not convincing.
I'm not able to tell if you are dissatisfied with my logic, or if you got upset by a criticism made about TYYM. If it's the former, I accept as I made assumptions. If it's the latter, then I'm not sure. I'd rather you accept it as my opinium, which it's understood to be subjective, and just agree to disagree. In any case, it's all good :-).
It's funny, you actually prompted me to watch more Wuxia now LOL. :-)
Soonyi's the adopted daughter of Tae Ho, right? I think she died. And it seems they 'collected' her DNA so Tae…
Do you mean when TH connected with her via Dorothy? or in the beginning when TH lost her? In the begining, TH did look for her, he went to the 'government(?) department' to register the search, but he was not a 'citizen', so they will only help him if he pays cash, which he didn't have. So his worked hard to earn money for several years, but was never enough. He has a wrist band that notifies him if they find Sonnyi, but he was still waiting after several years. In the scene when he connected with Soonyi via Dorothy, I'm actually not sure now after your question. When I watched it, my take was Soonyi died already, but they were able to retriéve her DNA, so TH was able to connect with her for a brief moment with D's help. And S dissipated after TH met her.
Hm. Maybe another viewer could post some additional points that I've missed. Hope at least this helped a bit. Cheers :-)

Love this movie. The cinematography is beautiful. I love Chinese 'Wuxia' fantasies. It's tagged as 'bromance' but I find the ML's 'bromamce chemistry' is not quite convincing. It's not as convincing as The Untamed. TU is very well done.
Honestly, I like both SH and SJ. Having a hard time accepting that only one gets to pair with JG. Not that the love triangle should be left unresolved, but I think I'm going to be upset regardless who pairs with JG. LOL
Comments complaining about the lack of sense of the story when they are themselves making no sense because of…
You know, regarding credibility, technically none of the comments here are credible, cordially including yours. Unless it's written by someone, somehow related in the field of that topic commented, or have actual knowledge of the others related involved. Like one of the viewers here actually works in the medical industry and has contributed his/her views in that scope. As ordinary viewers, it's all just subjective perceptions and opinions. You can still be upset, but 'credibility' is not something you can tell another person how they should judge.
But it's an old topic and I agree to disagree. Take care and stay safe at your end :-)

It's easier for me to just type the first letters. Hope this clarifies :-)
