don't misuse the word "queerbaiting" just because there isn't any kisses between the leads. and also don't accuse…
Interesting that people below are complaining about it. I watched a drama with a straight couple and they didn't either. But that's fine. Because that's not the foundation for every relationship. It's weird that people complain about it, especially since BL seems to sometimes be fetishised on here, whilst other LGBT content isn't watched as much
My first ever KDrama is a drama recommended to me by my friends at the time. And honestly, it's one of the worst ones I've ever seen... I'm surprised I kept watching them after that. But my second drama (one I found by myself) is one of my favourites ever.
I've recommended plenty to friends because they've asked me to but I've never been bothered until you mentioned it in the blog (TT a shame because I have put thought into what I've recommended). But one of my friends ending up watching Squid Game before me and didn't even mention it until she finished. Now, I don't speak to anyone about what I watch because there's no point, unfortunately.
I do think there's a problem when it comes to recommending titles. Like I said, I hate the first KDrama I watched. And now, I see people blindly recommending it to strangers on the internet. I think too many people will recommend about 50 titles at a time to strangers who have never watched a KDrama without going into detail about any of them. And from what I've noticed, they've recommended only the most popular dramas without taking into consideration if they're any good.
Weirdly enough, I haven't encountered this problem with JDramas. Probably because they're not as mainstream and widespread.
Is it just me but I feel a little superior when my friends say they cannot watch movies with subtitles my first…
True. I've grown up watching shows and films with subtitles for as long as I can remember. And now, I mostly consume media in foreign languages and I think it's weird that some people around me use their supposed inability to read subtitles and watch a film/show as an excuse to not watch a good piece of media. But maybe we are just superior...? (just kidding)
I feel like he's getting type casted a bit... I really want him choose different roles that can really show his acting ability. His best role is probably in AiB Also, people talking about how hot his character is in AiB when he spends the entire people assaulting everyone (physically and sexually) is just gross. And I just realised that he doesn't have many main roles despite being relatively popular
why was she so hurt when he said they weren't dating right after they randomly kissed for the first time after all those years. FL was slightly annoying and the ML was clueless.
This was quite dissapointing. Everything felt so constricted, boring, and predictable. This didn't really offer anything new.
Also, something I realised in the 9th episode was the set they were using and the camera work. Pretty much every location is filmed alternating between the same two angles and it makes we wonder where the heck they were filming. (Also why I'm describing it as constricted) They faced the same 3 walls the entire drama, so were they using a prop set? It really bugged me though.
Truthfully, I don't know what the point of any of it was. And what was with the reveal to the supposed mystery in episode 9? So lacklustre and ant-climatic. And by the end, I was so tired of seeing the faces of all three mains (I know that will piss of some fans lmao), but they were honestly starting to bug me so much - the characters, the actors, and the acting itself.
There was a review on here before that mentioned that the reunion between those two from NwP was disappointing compared to the one between Oguri Shun and Ikuta Toma for Ouroboros and I'm just wondering what happened to it...that review was the reason I watched Ouroboros weirdly enough.
ohhh shoot, if I'm on EP 3 and the ratings went down, I don't like that
I noticed that, too. But the drama hasn't even finished so ratings shouldn't even be allowed. And I find it bizarre considering the drama has actually improved in my opinion
I don’t understand people saying this drama is “draggy” from the get go…are you sure you know the drama…
I agree. I definitely don't see it as draggy. Possibly a little repetitive at times...? But this is the most engaged I've been for a currently airing kdrama this year. The acting is probably the best out of all the 2022 kdramas I've seen as well, which might just be because it's more serious, to be fair.
