If you did not watch The Heart Killers, then you don't have the right to breathe

The Heart Killers is not gruesome as some may expected. If you are not watching The Heart Killers while it was ongoing, then what are you doing in your life? Just kidding. To be honest, I am glad that I watched this series' episodes come-out one by one, because the pressure the time each episode comes-out and the need to trend it was different. The recognition and reward of seeing one of your favorite Boys Love series is an overwhelming feeling to yourself.

Story - 9/10
I gave the story a 9/10, because it was great, but definitely have some improvements to be made of just for it to become perfect.

The Heart Killers' plot revolves around a thief (Kant) being tasked by a police captain (Christ) to sneak or investigate on a notorious hitmen brothers (Bison and Fadel). When Kant saw one of the hitmen brothers, Bison, he knew that person is a one night stand he cannot forget. So, what he did was flirt Bison. But he was stopped by Bison's scary older brother, Fadel. Fadel is the older brother of Bison and they own a burger shop.

Bison told Kant that Fadel has a closed heart, meaning that he do not and cannot trust anybody that easily. So, in order to fix that problem and continue spying on the hitmen brothers, Kant asked help from his best friend, Style. Style is a mechanic in their family business' car shop, hence fixing cars are his main job. At first, Style did not agree, but when Kant said that he will exchange his car for his help to flirt Style, he agreed immediately.

Style and Fadel met unexpectedly already, because of a car accident. Fadel's precious car was hit by Style. Since he is a mechanic he offered free service to Fadel and said that he'll fix his car. Fast forward, when Style knew that Fadel was the person that Kant wants him to flirt, he tried all ways in order to be near Fadel, with the help also of Bison giving Fadel's diary to Style.

Basically, the story revolves around Kant being tasked by the police to investigate and find evidence about a hitmen brothers, with added romance since Kant and Bison had feelings for each other, and Style pursuing Fadel to have a mutual feelings also with each other.

Acting/Cast - 10/10
You know, the precious gem of a story is really the actors and the characters that they are portraying. Even if the story and script was great, if the acting and chemistry of the characters suck, the series will be a total hit and miss.

Kant (First Kanaphan) - What would you do in exchange of freedom? Are you willing to sacrifice your love's freedom in exchange of your own? His character is really a chef's kiss main character because of how the occurrence of events happened because of his actions and decisions.

Bison (Khaotung Thanawat) - Wow, just wow! Khaotung is really a good actor, I think anyone can agree with me. Bison is such a menace and a crazy character. The way he decided what to do when he knew that Kant is spying on them, investigate them. The actions he made when he knew he was being used by his lover, I FUCKING LOVE IT. This is another time that a character and an actor really got into me, in a way that I love it so much.

KantBison (FirstKhaotung) - The chemistry is really good. Watching them in this series really satisfies me, because I saw their other series and the way they acted on those. Those NC scenes, really mesmerizing and admiring to watch. I did not even skip a single second on their NC scenes because of how natural they acted on those. It feels like they are not acting, rather just enjoying the moment they are doing those scenes.

Fadel (Joong Archen) - It is my first time seeing Joong acting and to be honest, he shocked me. His character is someone who cannot trust that easily because of valid reasons and as a person who is like that also, he got me. Fadel's acting is so good that he really felt like he is embodying the role given to him. Also, he is really hot as a person hehe

Style (Dunk Natachai) - Also my first time seeing Dunk's acting and I love it! Style's mannerisms are really good. His iconic lines such as "Good Morning Kub" is really what the viewers love about him. Another, I want to applaud the stylist because of how good his outfits are. An example is the iconic crop tops he wore during the series, it was really good. Dunk is really great on portraying this not so serious but series role he got.

FadelStyle (JoongDunk) - Many viewers really love their enemy to lovers? trope that their plot has. From Fadel being cold to Style at first to the efforts that Style took in order to become near Fadel. The efforts both their characters did in order for them to become lovers. The sacrifices and moments that broke them and the viewers are really good. No one can portray Fadel and Style better than Joong and Dunk, I must say.

In totality, I gave The Heart Killers a 9.5/10 because in my own opinion, it was really good, but close only to perfection. If the casts was not great, the plot and script will not be well executed and the viewers will not love it. A must recommended series to watch, because you will not only fall in love with the plot and the characters, but also to the actors as well. If you are not watching or you did not watch it yet, you do not have the right to breathe, just kidding. Go watch it!

EDIT: I just finished watching the last episode and to tell you guys, it was truly worth it watching this series. Just a caution for the last episode because if the first episodes' NC scenes are hot, then the last episode was blazing in purgatory as it was that hot! WATCH IT ALREADY!!!

A satisfactory pornographic, yet pleasurable BL Movie that has bad English subtitles

First of all, I am a pro-pleasure type of person, and I am open to this kind of topic. I gave the movie an 8/10 rating because of the following reasons:

Story/Plot - 8/10
I firmly believe that the plot itself was satisfactory, not bad. If only we have an access to a better English subtitled version of this film, then more viewers can comprehend what is going on in the movie. I agree that the movie have bad scenes and the angles are all off, but I felt like they showed a raw portrayal of sexual intercourses.

Characters/Cast - 8/10
I actually loved how the actors portrayed their characters in this movie. I feel like they acted naturally on how a human actually experience sexual intercourse. Can I also highlight the fact that there is a blowjob scenes in this movie? It is not a lot, but I rarely see NC scenes that contains that kind of sexual experience. I liked it because of the fact that sexual experiences has a process, diverse, and it is not just kissing and having sex.

In totality, yes, the Double Exposure is not the best movie, but it is above average, I stand. The movie served its purpose and its objectives. I just hope that in the future, someone kind can be able to give a better English subtitle to the movie, because it has a lot of potential. Lastly, this movie has its own target audience, so I would like to recommend this film to the type of viewer who loves NC scenes, but if you are the type who do not want those kind of scenes, then this is not for you.

I made a summary of the movie if anyone can't comprehend what happened in Double Exposure:

Double Exposure is a story about a photographer. The story started with him dreaming about having sexual intercourse with a guy who he doesn't know. The next day, after a model's photoshoot, his assistant showed him his boyfriend's photo. He immediately recognized the man because he resembles the man in his dream. They scheduled a photoshoot for the assistant's boyfriend.

Before the photoshoot began, the photographer and the boyfriend had an assessment and talked about the photoshoot. When the boyfriend is changing clothes, the photographer is sneaking. Then, the photoshoot began and the photographer asked the boyfriend to took of layers of his clothes one-by-one, leading the photoshoot to become a nude one. When the boyfriend is fully nude, the photographer took close-up shots, while being on top of the boyfriend. Then, he took his courage of kissing the boyfriend. At first, the boyfriend did not respond, but when the photographer kissed him again, he responded. The two of them booked a motel and made-out there.

Their make-out happened many times. Unfortunately, the photography is not satisfied with the boyfriend's performance. Thankfully, his assistant said that she and her boyfriend will go abroad to study, so he did not mind breaking-up with the assistant's boyfriend.

A few year's later, the photographer saw a man, who resembles that boyfriend. Since he know that it is impossible for that man to be in South Korea and also the fact that his personality is so different from the boyfriend, he confirmed to himself that they're not the same person, hence deciding on leading him to become a model in a photoshoot. When the photoshoot started, the model started kissing him. They made-out in the studio, wherein the model is the one dominating the sexual intercourse.

When the assistant came back, she saw the nude photoshoots her ex took back then, and immediately knew that something happened between her ex and the photographer. She also informed the photographer that her ex did not come to study abroad with her, opening the possibility of the person he met and that ex of the assistant is the same person. Before the movie ended, we saw that the photographer was kicked by someone (I think that is the assistant since she was angry). In the end, since the photographer is now satisfied with the man's performance, they decided to keep their relationship, even without confirming if that man is the same person as the ex of the assistant.

A Psychological Thriller, rather than a Horror Story

Dead Friend Forever frightened me, that is why I kept it in my "Plan to Watch" for months. Yesterday, I got the courage to watch it. To be honest, I like watching horror movies, but with Thailand's standard with horror films, it made me scared to watch it.

Dead Friend Forever started with a group of friends vacationing in their friend's house, which is located in the forest. They organized that vacation since their friend Jin is going abroad to study film there. When they got there, they partied. They drank and took drugs. Since they do not have an internet connection, they got bored. They planned to watch films. While choosing what film to watch, they saw a storage drive. The other members argued to not watch it, but the other members continued pursuing to watch it. Someone said that drive contains a short film they made when they were in high school. While watching, the friends who are not part of the short film asked who is the one wearing a mask. The others responded that person is "Non" and that person is already missing. Then since Jin is taking film, they decided to recreate the short film.

The story revolves with the short film and how the story of that short film is happening in real life, or in other words, they said that watching that short film is cursed. The story is good, the plot twists (Yes, I can say that there are few) are plot twisting. The story talks about revenge, bullying, harassments, play and use of power, and mental health illness. The more episodes you watch, the more you will understand what and why it is happening. It not horror, but rather a psychological thriller. The consequences of actions that happened, happened for a reason. Many people might argue that the end is a sad ending, but for me, it is not. Just find out what happened in the end, I will not disclose it.

Characters:
White - He did not deserve what happened to him. He is innocent and did not do anything for that story to become like that.

Por - The sad reality of being a child of a politician. The way his father's power got into his head, it is so disappointing. Such a spoiled brat.

Top - I do not really remember him and his background, to be honest. The only thing that I remember from him is him becoming the masked killer in few episodes and being hypnotized.

Fluke - The things that you will just for your parents to become proud of you. Yes, he did not contribute much to the bullying, but doing nothing is also equals to contributing to the bullies. And the way his actions become so bad when he was under pressure, wow!

Tan - Another scenario of what are the things that you will do for love. The way that his story is what I'll consider as the main plot twist of this story. His character is really great.

Tee - No one can make me like his character so much. Everything that happened here is because of his wrongdoing. He deserves that ending so much.

Jin - If you really love a person, are you going to do what Jin did? That action of him made a big impact on the consequences of the things that happened. Him studying film major made so much sense, because of the background of this story. If you know, you know what I mean.

Phee - Another scenario of "I will never like your character." I get why his character is what was considered as the main character. But why will you do all of that just for you to not stick to the plan in the end? I really hate him so much. He is also one of the reasons why the story became so tragic.

Non - What will happen to a person when he is encountering so many problems at once? From personal problems, house problems, school problems, and peer problems. When he just wants to make friends, but he was just used by evil people.

In totality, Dead Friend Forever did not disappoint. It made me tremble a little. It made me overthink of the things that will happen in the next episodes. The story is great. The acting and the casts are all great. This series did its best to portray such a different and unique genre of Boys Love series. It is recommendable to watch, but I do not think that I will watch it again.

A Wedding or Not?

Jack and Joker (Special Episode) is an almost 2 hours movie. The special episode revolver around Jack and Joker wanting to get married and live together until the end. Unfortunately, the list of the debtor's information was stolen, and when they went to get it, they was set-up by their former enemy (mostly of Jack) named Carbon. He got-out of prison by changing identity and killing his father. Basically, the plot revolved around him getting revenge to Jack, his lover - Joker, and his friends and colleagues.

Spoiler!
The plot and story was not unique, yet still perfectly done. The story gave its high and lows. All emotions are being felt, let it be happiness, anger, and sadness. I really love how comfortable I felt while watching the film (In the first parts). I just felt how happy and comfortable the casts are to each other.

Special episodes are usually ending with happiness, that's why a lot of fans don't like when the news that this have a sad ending got out last February 22. Yet this online version proved us wrong, because the ending gave a possibility of a season 2.

The casts' acting did not really missed-out. They really made us feel that this is a SPECIAL episode. The chemistry of Yin and War, chef's kiss. The chemistry also of the side couple (Tattoo and the son of the boss). I really felt the love of Jack and Joker in their scenes. It made me giggle whenever they're being lovely to each other. The casts also made me laugh in some parts. In the heavy parts, I literally bawled my eyes and hearts out, and I rarely do it, so it just means that this film is one of a kind.

In totality, even if you interpret it having a sad or open ending, you must still watch it. The special episode really did not miss-out in anything. It is recommendable and a must to watch!

Go Young's Life is Someone in the LGBTQIA+ Community's Life

Love in the Big City might have been labeled as a Boys Love Series because of the many man to man relationship Go Young had encountered, but personally, I think that this story might have been better labeled as what does an ordinary gay man's life really is.

The plot revolves around Go Young. His character was introduced as someone who's sex positive, gay, and club goer. This series was directed by multiple directors. Each director focused on each of Go Young's relationship respectively.

The first relationship/situation ship of Go Young is with Kim Namgyu. Go Young met Namgyu in a modeling photoshoot sideline, wherein Namgyu is the photographer. Namgyu became interested on Go Young, they both met at a club, wherein Choi Miae, a school mate of Go Young saw them kissing outside the club. Eventually, Go Young and Namgyu had a misunderstanding. Go Young as someone who is carefree, doesn't want to continue his relationship with Namgyu. But the latter doesn't want to stop their relationship and became obsessed with Go Young. At once, Namgyu not knowing where exactly Go Young is living, had to wait for two hours in the street hoping that Go Young will passed by. Their story is a mixture of sweet and bittersweet moments. A typical relationship between two persons, wherein one person will eventually feel out of love or want to the other person. Namgyu was a very deligent person, always abiding to every rules, but one day, the news that he died was reported to Go Young, and that is because of fast driving. This is where their story ends.

The second relationship of Go Young is with No Youngsu. Go Young met him first while jogging in the morning, but later met him more personal in something like a philosophy group discussion. Youngsu invited Go Young in a coffee shop, since he drank Go Young's coffee when he arrived late in the group discussion. There, they first started talking and bonding with each other. The next moments was a blast with Go Young not knowing if Youngsu is gay and likes him. But they eventually felt mutual understanding on their feelings with each other. I can say that this couple had the hottest NC scenes in this series. The way Youngsu manhandled Go Young in that one scene really gave butterflies to my stomach. But of course, all happy happenings have its plot twist, because later Go Young found out that Youngsu is doing a study about homosexuality and that it is a sin.

The third relationship of Go Young is with Sim Gyuho. Go Young met him in the club as Gyuho is a bartender there. There was a sudden fight and Go Young punched him, as far as I remember. They were both down and when they both sat, Go Young suddenly kissed Gyuho. After that day, they both met again in a theater. Gyuho said that he really went there because he want to talk and return something to Go Young. There, their relationship and bonding has begun.

During their scenes, one of the most important highlight was the talk about the HIV or Human Immunodeficiency Virus. In the first parts of their NC scenes together, Gyuho asked if he can take off the condom since he doesn't feel fcking if he have a condom on. Go Young said no and suggested exchanging their positions. After 7 weeks, when Go Young is in military, he was exempted immediately since the doctor detected that he's positive with HIV. There, he confessed to Gyuho about this condition. Go Young suggested of breaking up, but Gyuho doesn't want to break-up with Go Young.

In this part, Go Young thought of naming his condition "Kylie" as he said that since he will live with it forever, might as well name it something gorgeous.

Months and year had passed, many problems rose during their relationship like being late during their meetup, but the most turning point of their breakup is Gyuho having to transfer to other country.

After a year, Go Young went back to hooking-up through dating sites, wherein he met first a not so good looking guy (sorry), wherein they did the NC scene in Go Young's house. Then his next partner was introduced, which is Habibi.

Habibi is a japanese who is vacationing in South Korea. He is staying in a good hotel. There he and Go Young met-up and had NC scene. They met up once again. Went to Bangkok, Thailand, and there they stayed in a hotel that Go Young and Gyuho had stayed before.

Other characters:

Choi Mi Ae - housemate of Go Young. Her character really did bring a lot out of Go Young since she became his ally at some points of his life. Even with a bad background, they still had a very good platonic relationship with each other. I felt bad for the girl when his engagement was cut-off since they guy found out that she is living with Go Young.

Go Young's Mother - Many LGBT members will resonate with Go Young's situation. There are a lot of parents who are not proud of their LGBT children, thankfully Go Young is on the brighter side, since his mother knew about his situation, she didn't try to meddle, she did not accept, but she just understands of her son's situation.

Circle of Friends - Many will agree that we do not always need to be in a relationship, we just need our friends. Thankfully, this circle of friends is so strong that they are on each other's back through all the ups and downs of life.

The plot is really good. We can see that the 8 episodes of this series is just enough as how well written each episode was. We can see how each stories connected and resonated with each other. How each story gave lesson to Go Young and how each story gave journey to the main character.

The acting of the actors and the actors themselves are the gem of this series. They are all so good and gave their best in delivering the emotions the script needed on each situation.

In totality, this is a must recommended BL Series. Once again, viewers must watch it because we will feel that we are the main character in the story as it really depicts the story of real life LGBT members. With this series, we do not need to have a good or bad ending. You can interpret the ending in any way you want. But at the end of the day, we can all agree in the same thing, and it is that this series is the most idealistic and realistic life of a gay person.

It's now the time to support an ongoing BL Series!

Gelboys got me intrigued before watching it because of how good the editing was, when I watched a clip of it in TikTok. Where to watch? It is an original but IQIYI, so you must watch it there.

The story revolves around Fou4Mod, a typical student, who always carry a guitar and takes a train to go to school. He recently broke up with his partner, since he found-out through the girl's notification that she is cheating on him. He is part of a squad and is a close friend of Baabin. One day, he saw a nails shop, got intrigued, and went inside to get his nails done.

Since the day he got his nails designed, he's been taking care of it. One day, while washing his hands, Chian, a co-student who's also have designed nails, also washed his own hands in the same sink that Fou4mod was washing. That started the spark of their interactions. Chian followed Fou4mod on his social media accounts. They also went to the same nail shop to get their nails done.

Eventually, Fou4mod, became interested on Chian in a way that he changed his phone to an Iphone since Chian has an Iphone device. He also followed back Chian on all of his social media accounts.

Later in the episode, Fou4mod, showed signs of jealousy from Chian's attention, since the latter also has a best friend named Bua, who we saw in the earlier part of the episode is taking a kpop dance video in the public.

Basically, this story is the typical type of BL Series about a teenager falling in love.

The series is great, must recommended, and must watch because of how great the 1st episode of it. In terms of editing, the scenes, and the set designs, it was perfectly done. The staffs really did a great job in putting all together the technicalities of the scenes. I just hope that the next episodes will be consistent in terms of these aspects.

The casts are also all good looking and has a fresh vibe of an actor. The main lead, Fou4mod, also have a good body as we all saw in the first part of the episode (That shocked me, tbh!). Later in the succeeding episodes, we'll get to know more the story and characters.

What are you waiting for? Watch it now, as another episode is coming out later!

Enjoyable, but Not the Perfect BL Series

I gave the Battle of the Writers with 9/10 stars because in my opinion, this BL Series is good, did it job, but not to the perfection.

The series' sypnosis talks about a writer (Obun/Little Prince) being accused by another writer (Shan)'s fans of plagiarizing his work, but it is not the truth. The Battle of the Writers title, is not fitted to what really happened to this BL Series. Because to be honest, they did not fight because Shan himself know that Obun did not plagiarize his work. In the first few episodes, Obun and Ozone just clarified to Shan the side of Obun (Clarifying that he did not plagiarized).

That's the start of the story, but the plot revolves around a group of writers, working together to create the best and most legendary Boys Love Novel. Through their journey of writing that novel, Shan and Obun worked-out their relationship and tackled and found-out about their past. Furthermore, Ozone found-out that his editor/boss (Pie) is in love with him, which is an additional spice to the story.

Problems to the story arise, like Intouch trying to meddle between the relationship of Shan and Obun, because he likes Shan. Obun finding-out on what happened to his family in the past, which is correlated with the family of Shan. Pie wanting to avoid Ozone by assigning another editor for him. And in the latter part, since Obun is working on two novels; his own novel and the novel that the 5 of them are working on, he mistakenly uploaded the new chapter of his own novel to the novel that they are working on.

Yes, I agree that the story has many plot holes, but the main problem for me is the editing. Since there are many things that are happening in the story, such as the story that is happening in the main couple, the story that is happening in the novel that they are working on, the story of the side couples, and then the scenes wherein they are chatting in their group chat (But this is brilliant because we can see the difference between the real world and when they're talking in the group chat), the episodes look crowded. I wish that they lessen the MANY THINGS that are happening in each episodes. Avoid the many unnecessary things so that the viewers can understand it more.

The NC Scenes are not necessary, but I would like to highlight those, because they are all so good! They are all straight out of the p*rn sites, I must say. The actors did their best on each scene and it paid off very well.

Thankfully, the casts are great and they carried the script well. In totality, once again, it is not perfect. But I will recommend it to other watchers.

Watch it, don't believe the comments!!!

I binged watch this 12 episode series of My Stand-in today. Seriously speaking, why did I just watched it today? It's frustrating me so much, because of how good it is!

The plot revolves around Joe, a stuntman for a famous actor named Tong. In the set, Joe met Ming, brother in law of Tong who is secretly in love with him. Joe got interested on him and Ming found resemblance of Tong in Joe so he got attached to him. They got into a situationship. When Joe became promoted to a main lead of a movie with his friend Sol (Kpop Idol), Ming got jelous, and locked up Joe. Since Joe cannot attend the press conference of the movie, he was removed from it and got banned from any companies. In need of job, he got the job of being a stuntman in an infamous company who is famous for using cheap materials and not caring and compensating the talents who are undergoing accidents. During the shoot, he needs to do stunts while riding a motorcycle in a mountain. Since the harness is cheap, it broke easily, causing Joe to fall the mountain.

When he woke up, he is already in a body of another person, also named Joe. There he met again Ming and the other colleagues from his old body, which basically where the plot revolved around.

The plot is so good and unique! I love it so much because of the fact that it raises awareness towards the reality of behind the scenes of the films we are watching. Towards those extras and stuntmans who are doing most of the work instead of those actors and actresses who are getting the limelight.

This made me crazy, stressed, and obsessed just like Ming, lmao. If you don't like red flag main characters, then this is definitely not for you, because Ming's character is really hateful. There are so many things happening, most especially towards the ending. I'm like "Joe literally just went out of the hospital! Why are you kidnapping him again?"

This series made me anticipate each and every scenes of it. The way I cannot pursue myself to stop watching, that is why I literally binged watch it for a day.

The casts are all so good! The main characters delivered and served the best out of all casts, which made them deserving of being the main roles of this series. This series is just so good because of the chemistry of them both. The way they let out those emotions and script, it was truly satisfying. Addition to that, those NC scenes are to die for.

I'm so frustrated for watching it just now because I am literally satisfied on everything in this series. I love it so much and I would recommend this to other watchers. Hands down to everyone behind The Stand-in!

Mental Health Awareness and Bullying Film, but with Supernatural Solutions

High School Return of a Gangster's story revolves around Song Yiheon, a high school student, who's being bullied by his classmates. Meanwhile, Kim Deokpal is the head of a gang. They met each other when Deokpal was standing under an overpass, while Yiheon jumped from it. When Deokpal woke up, he was shockingly in the body of Yiheon already. When he read Yiheon's letter, he took the opportunity of being in that body to fix Yiheon's life. He worked-out to get physically fit and fight the bullies. Basically, the story revolves around Deokpal fixing Yiheon's life while he is in that body.

Plot/Story - 9/10
First of all, I like the whole story. I liked where the story might lead you and the ending of it. But along the way, I felt like there is nothing new with the story. Yes, the main character's soul was changed and he is now in the body of a high schooler with the purpose of establishing a better life for the owner of his body, but what's more of it? What's something more to the story that viewers might get interested in? Yes, I am happy that the bullied main character is now getting his revenge on the bullies and that his life is now better but I felt uninterested at some point, because I was not intrigued already on what might happen in the next episodes. Nevertheless, the plot was concise and understandable, but I felt like the story is only going through a straight line instead of a line with zigzags of it.

The novel was considered as BL, but this series was tagged as bromance, yet I appreciate the fact that the script still gives hints of flirting in it and how the characters' actions and lines are to each other.

Characters - 10/10
Chanyoung did great in portraying a contrasting character; him as Yiheon and as Deokpal. The way he managed to give different emotions out of the two characters really did make me feel proud of him. His acting of Deokpal's mannerisms as an older age is really something that must be highlighted.

Yiheon's character is really the main plot of this story. I just can't imagine the battles that he needs to go through to the point that he needs to make that decision to himself. In the end, I believed that his decision was a good decision. As someone who experienced going through that state (Not bullied), I felt him when he said that he is tired already. I understand his decision and I always understand people who are experiencing that kind of mental health disorder.

Yiheon's Parents
I actually do not just understand the fact that he is a chairman of a company's son, yet he was not recognized by him. I mean, knowing the culture of South Korea, they value more if their child is a son. With her mother who has been an addict for her whole life, it is so funny to see that she is okay already that fast. I mean, addiction is not something that you can cure in just one day, it is a long process.

Choi Sekyung - I know that in the moment that he met the new Yiheon and he was surprised, there is something going on between the two of them. I felt emotional with his character because of how mentally pressured he was to abide by his abusive father, no children must experience that kind of maltreatment. On the other hand, I hate him for not helping the abused when Yiheon needed him. I always believe that if you are not doing anything against the oppressor, then you're also siding with the oppressor. Nevertheless, his character development gave him a redeeming moment.

Hong Jaemin - I actually thought that he is one of the main characters, but I understand how he is just a side character. I hate him, his way of thinking, and the actions he did. I will never forgive his character for that. But can I talk about how Joo Yoonchan portrayed this character? The anger that I feel towards this motherfucker bully suddenly becomes so cute in my eyes whenever he appears on my screen. His incorrect English words and cute actions made his character adorable. I still hate him as a bully, but once again a character with a development and redeeming moment in the end.

Lee Seojin - Even if he only appeared in one episode, he became remarkable. The way that his aura shifted from a student who is bad at Math, then suddenly showing his charismatic and manly aura when the gang opened the door. That scene was so funny to me.

Each and everyone of the casts did amazing on their respective roles. Some made me love them, some made me irritated, but that just means that they did great in portraying their characters.

In totality, High School Return of a Gangster did well and I loved watching it. This film used it platform to raise awareness about Mental Health Disorders and Bullying, but the solution used cannot be used in real life situations. The ending made me satisfied, the bullies going to jail and Kim Deokpal remains on Earth with Yiheon's body. I just wish an entirely and everlasting happiness for Yiheon in the afterlife.

It Will Leave You on Chokehold

The Time of Fever is a story between Hotae and Donghee. The story started with Hotae playing the soccer ball with the children, while wearing mourning clothes. He came back to his hometown because of his father's death. Donghee is his friend since they were kids. Since Donghee came-out, his father kicked him out of their house. Because of this, he needed to stay in Hotae's house. The story revolves around the two of them; Donghee's resistance to his feelings toward Hotae & Hotae finding his feelings getting closer towards Donghee.

There are two listed The Time of Fever in the website of My Drama List, but it is just the same. The movie is just a compiled episodes of the series. The parent drama of The Time of Fever is the Unintentional Love Story. It came-out first and Hotae and Donghee is the side couple of that drama.

In terms of actings and casts, Won Taemin (Hotae) and Do Woo (Donghee) really did amazing on this movie/series. Their chemistry together is really beyond expection. They did really well on their respective roles and their scenes together were spectacular. Korea is known for having such a mellow down NC Scenes, so you will only see kissing scenes in this series. Regardless, the tension between the two and their kissing scenes were really done well, no inch of uncomfortableness was seen on the both of them.

In terms of the technicalities, the film was really edited well, the sequence are well put together, and the way the scenes were filmed was really good. I want to highlight how the color grading of each scene was well done and how it fit just right on the emotions the scenes wants to give.

The ending is really not that great, as it remains open ended to the viewers perceptions. Regardless, it was a really great Boys Love film and deserves a high rating. It deserves a special episode or much better, a season 2. Watch The Time of Fever because you will fall in love with it.

Not a Long Review

Love For Love Sake is such a masterpiece. The way it got into my head, wow! Each episode made me felt loved, thrill, and excitement. To be honest, the later episodes made me confused because of many things happening. But when you analyze it carefully, you will understand what is going on. Yes, it may be hard, but be on that perspective that there is something happening inside the game, so it can be technical.

Also, take into consideration that the series is partly an awareness of Mental Health and Homophobia. In a way that in this series, it tackled major problems about these two topics, most especially mental health.

The chemistry of Lee Taevin & Cha Joowan is really great. Also, Cha Woongki is a great addition. Ack, I should've watched it earlier

My Own Opinion!

This BL Series, 4Minutes, is great. The recommendations online (I saw this on TikTok) showed the chemistry of the characters, the 18+ scenes, and the unique power that the main character has. But it has more to that.

What really captured me to watch it is the unique element in the story it has. The plot revolves around the main character who can see 4 minutes in the future, his father's "secret illegal gambling casino", and the death of his classmate. The good thing about the plot is that it all revolves around the main character, so it has a connection. In total fairness to the actors, they're all giving, hence a good job.

The downside of this series is that I totally lost it at the last 3 episodes. I had to read a recap of the episodes in Google, in order to understand what's going on. The fast pacing of the scenes at the end needed to be worked for. Also, 8 episodes is not enough for this series. I think that with more episodes, the story will be explained and elaborated more.

Overall, it was fun, crazy, and hot to watch, and a great recommendation of a BL Series to watch.

Ps. Warning because watching this series is like watching a p*rn on the side. But they executed the scenes well, so it's a must watch.

Hyper-realistic Plot Kind of Story

Eternal Butler revolves around the story of Bushi and an AI Robot named Ever 4. The plot basically talks about Ever 4 being rented to discipline Bushi because of his childish and spoiled acts.

The use of a humanoid robot or AI in the story is what made it quiet interesting.

The plot about the father wanting to discipline his child is not new to the viewer's taste, but not a bad path to go through.

The chemistry of the two main characters reflected a lot to the viewers. The way they acted together and blended well is the key point and charm of this series.

The chemistry also of the side couple and how cute they both look side to side with each other is really an additional factor to the story. The whole series can be bland without the help of the plot of the side characters.

NC scenes are hot but not given enough airtime. Since the story showed us an additional factor or purpose of Ever4 when they're having a sexual intercourse, I think that it will be good if there are more scenes that highlighted the advancements that Ever4 had.

In totality, the series gave happiness to me and my fridays. I love the casts and how they presented their characters to the viewers. Wishing to see them in more series!

Had the Potential

A short review...

I felt like the story had the potential to it. I can't help but find similarities between the plot of this and the Century of Love, wherein both are waiting for their loved one.

The story had the potential to be expounded more and be used to explain and converse more on what is happening to the characters. Since it was only an 10 episodes BL Series with maximum 14 minutes each episode, I felt like the story was rushed and the story was being cut out of the important details of it.

The actor who portrayed Dongbaek simply carried this series. I felt like Yudam and Dennis did not expressed their emotions as much as Dongbaek. But still, they served the characters well and I'm somewhat satisfied with it.

The ending is bad, with the sudden reverse of story, and being back on the day 1. I am okay with open endings, but I want more from this series.
