I would give anything to see this for the first time again
I just finished the series and OH MY GOD what a ride. I've never been so sad but so happy over a shows ending. I'll never forget jin and saki and all the doctors at jinyudo. This show was a beautifully packaged gift blending medical knowledge, unrequited romance, personal growth, history, triumph, loss... like the headline states; i wish i could watch this show for the first time again. I hope all the actors and production team got their flowers for this masterpiece because there will be nothing like it again.Was this review helpful to you?

Love Doesn't Disappear Just Because a Relationship Ends
Gelboys Season 2 may look colorful, fashionable, chaotic, and sometimes completely crazy on the surface, but underneath all of that, it tells a surprisingly thoughtful story about how love changes over time.Season 1 was almost like a romantic chase going endlessly in circles. Four boys loved, chased, supported, hurt, and sacrificed for one another in different ways.
Season 2 asks a much more difficult question:
What happened to all that love after they grew up?
Baby and Gelz want to understand the romantic history of their fathers. For Baby especially, this isn't simply curiosity. He carries the fear that he may have been the reason Bua and Baabin's relationship ended.
The final episode finally gives us the answer.
Chen loved Fourmod enough to make himself the villain in order to protect Fourmod's career. Baabin worked hard just to buy tickets and support Fourmod as his fan. And Bua, rather than simply becoming jealous of Baabin's devotion to Fourmod, helped Fourmod himself.
Why?
Because Bua loved the Baabin who loved his idol.
I found that incredibly touching.
And yet, despite all this love, their relationships did not remain the same forever.
That may be the most beautiful and mature idea in Gelboys Season 2.
A relationship ending doesn't mean the love that existed within it was a failure.
People grow. Families are created. Priorities change. Romantic love can transform into another kind of love, while the memories and connections it created remain.
Baby and Gelz grew up seeing the consequences of those complicated relationships. One pair loved each other but eventually separated. Another loved each other but couldn't simply remain together in the way they once wanted.
No wonder the sons were afraid to begin their own relationship.
But after learning the full history of their families, Baby and Gelz finally understand something important.
Their fathers' stories do not have to become their story.
They don't know whether their relationship will last forever.
They simply choose to begin.
And I loved that.
The final moment, with Gelz listening to Baby's recorded message asking him to date while Baby is nearby, is wonderfully simple after such a complicated journey through two generations of love.
Season 1 was about chasing love.
Season 2 was about understanding what remains after love changes.
And finally, the next generation gets to write its own story.
Gelboys is stylish, strange, funny and sometimes completely over-the-top—but beneath all that glitter, it has much more to say about love than I ever expected.
I really love this series.

Rich CEO Meets Poor Rival and I Already Know I’m Going to Love This
Another Chinese BL to add to the list, and I’m already loving it. Not Yours gives me similar vibes to Revenged Love with a rich, dominant and tall CEO who gets what he wants paired with a poorer lead who refuses to simply back down. Add in a rivals to lovers storyline and this is exactly the type of BL I enjoy.Ross Chen has acted in so many Chinese dramas, and seeing him in his first BL as P’Eng is really interesting. He is paired with Shogun as Pao Bei, a Thai actor who I literally just finished watching in Payback. A Chinese actor paired with a Thai actor in a Chinese BL is such an interesting combination, and so far I really like them together.
My only small criticism is that Shogun cannot speak Mandarin Chinese, so his dialogue is dubbed and you can notice that his lips do not always match perfectly. Since I do not speak Chinese anyway, it is something I can easily ignore and it does not really affect my enjoyment of the series.
We also have our second couple, with Zuan Hao as Milan and Jerry Loong as Pong. Their characters already have history as former rivals, so once again we are getting that enemies to lovers energy. I love both couples so far. The chemistry is there, the acting is good, and both relationships have completely different dynamics while still fitting the overall theme of rivals slowly becoming lovers.
The story also has more going on than just romance. There are family secrets and mysteries surrounding P’Eng’s wealthy family, which should hopefully give the series enough drama to keep the plot moving alongside the relationships.
So far, the production looks great, the graphics are good, the music fits the scenes, and most importantly, there are no boring moments. The first episode moved quickly and immediately gave me a reason to continue watching.
There are still 11 episodes to go, but based on the premiere, Not Yours is definitely my type of show. Two couples, strong chemistry, rich CEO energy, family drama and two rivals to lovers storylines. I cannot wait to see how both couples go from fighting each other to falling completely in love.

A Detective BL Where the Younger Man Knows Exactly What He Wants
Kiss wa Sousa no Ato de is a lighthearted detective BL that combines police cases with the romance between two very different men.Takoi is an experienced detective who is kind, friendly, and naturally charming. He easily wins people's affection without even realizing it—but when someone actually falls for him, he can be unbelievably oblivious.
Shiono, his younger colleague and partner, is almost the complete opposite. He knows exactly how he feels about Takoi and isn't afraid to show it. Their constant bickering, jealousy, and difference in personality make them a very entertaining couple.
What I enjoyed most throughout the ten episodes was this balance between them.
Takoi may be older and more experienced as a detective, but when it comes to romance, Shiono is clearly the one leading their relationship. Takoi keeps innocently attracting people, while Shiono becomes jealous and frustrated because the man he loves doesn't seem to understand what he is doing.
The final episode brings this dynamic to its conclusion when Takoi gets caught up in a dangerous case involving Omaeda.
Omaeda tries to use Takoi and Shiono's relationship against them, believing that exposing their romance will give him power over Shiono.
But he completely misunderstands one thing:
just how much Shiono loves Takoi.
In the end, Shiono doesn't hesitate when Takoi is in danger.
Their final scene on the rooftop is simple but satisfying. They hold hands, confirm their feelings, and kiss. Shiono even talks about rising through the ranks and eventually bringing Takoi along with him—which somehow feels exactly right for these two.
This wasn't a particularly complicated BL, and the crime stories were sometimes quite exaggerated, but the chemistry between the leads made it consistently enjoyable.
Most of all, I loved Takoi.
For someone who charms practically everyone around him, he is remarkably clumsy when it comes to his own love life. And when he looks completely in love with Shiono, that dimpled smile is simply adorable.
A fun, warm detective BL with an endearing age-gap couple.

Great psychological music drama
Well, I'm so into psychological dramas, like it's literally my thing. But I started watching Four Hands Two Sonatas just for the music, then I found out from the very beginning that there's a whole psychological plot as well: childhood trauma, emotional abuse, heavy depression… and the way it's all connected to music & how it reflects the artists' lives.Two promising young pianists from completely different worlds, yet with so many similarities when it comes to their painful childhoods & their ambitions. Kang Pio, the traumatized wealthy boy, and Choi Jeongyu, the poor boy who's considered a miracle pianist. Except Pio's suffering never really stopped.
After all the conflicts between them, Jeongyu gets hurt by Pio's mother and disappears for 9 years. Throughout those 9 years, Pio was living in hell. His soul was full of guilt, nightmares & endless psychiatrist visits. He kept looking for Jeongyu, and even though he achieved huge success as a pianist during those years, he was never truly happy.
Then Jeongyu comes back seeking revenge, especially against Pio, whom he believes was responsible. Pio eventually finds out what his mother did to Jeongyu, but when she threatens to kill herself, he can't do anything except take all the blame upon himself.
Jeongyu, who's already suffering so much and has lost his ability to play piano because of what happened years ago, begins his revenge by abusing Pio, trying to break him both emotionally & physically, while also destroying his reputation and career.
And Pio, who's been suffering his entire life, keeps getting worse. He becomes almost soulless, lifeless, barely able to breathe. He keeps getting dragged deeper into the revenge, keeps getting hurt, and still takes all the blame. Now he's showing every possible sign of completely collapsing. He's walking across bridges, staring deeply into the sea like he's contemplating suicide. At this point, it's either suicide or complete self-destruction.
We still have two episodes left and I'm excited as hell… but I'm honestly scared for Pio. Even Jeongyu will eventually break when he learns the truth—that Pio was innocent, just another victim like him. And then it'll be Jeongyu's turn to carry all that unbearable guilt Pio has been carrying for so many years.
They're both victims, Pio & Jeongyu, but that doesn't justify Jeongyu's brutal actions towards Pio. 💔
At this point, I'm honestly rooting for a tragic ending…
sorry, but my heart aches for Kang Pio. ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹😞

A Sweet and Gentle Remake About Finding Your Own Happiness
Your Sky: Hare Nochi Koi is the Japanese remake of the Thai BL series Your Sky, and while the basic story remains familiar, the Japanese version has its own gentle and innocent atmosphere.Hinata and Sora's relationship is simple and straightforward. There are no complicated games between them. What makes their romance appealing is watching Hinata gradually understand his feelings and Sora patiently stay by his side.
The final episode focuses on something more important than simply whether the two boys will stay together: what does happiness actually mean?
Hinata's father imagines a conventional future for his son—finding a wife, having children, and building a warm family like the one he grew up in. His opposition comes from worrying about Hinata's future rather than from a lack of love for him.
But Hinata has his own answer. His happiness is spending his life with the person he truly loves.
When the family faces a difficult situation, Sora doesn't try to prove anything with words. He simply stays beside Hinata and supports him. Seeing the two of them care for each other finally allows Hinata's father to understand that his son's future may look different from the one he imagined, but it can still be a happy one.
The development is somewhat predictable, but I think it was an important way to complete the story.
Overall, this was a very cute and gentle BL drama. I especially enjoyed the innocence of Hinata and the calm warmth Sora brought to their relationship.
And yes, the seaside scene was beautiful—but watching two fully dressed young men splash around in the ocean made me wonder how they were going to get home in those soaking wet oversized jeans. 😂
As for the final NC scene...
Did we really need it? lol
But perhaps that was the drama's way of saying that Hinata and Sora are no longer simply dreaming about love. They have chosen each other and are beginning their life together.
A sweet ending for a sweet couple.

THE RIDE OF EMOTION ROLLERCOASTER
it was a full-body, high-frequency experience that hit me right where it hurts and heals all at once. Even with two episodes left to go, watching these 10 episodes has felt like stumbling into a sacred harbor—a place where every unsaid emotion, every ache of unspoken loyalty, and every silent pulse of longing is set to music. Every episode was an absolute masterpiece of emotional crescendo—the kind of television that leaves you staring at a dark screen with your chest tight, your heart hammering, and tears sitting heavy in your eyes. The way the narrative crafts its unspoken bonds, the agonizing tension of people who understand each other at a soul level yet remain kept apart by life's cruel barriers, mirrors every depth of loyalty and loss I have ever known. The two pianos don't just play melodies; they scream the truths the characters are too guarded, too captured, or too terrified to speak out loud.It is vibrant, haunting, and devastatingly sincere. Watching it feels like a sanctuary—a safe haven where my own hidden feelings of missing someone, guarding my heart, and longing for a genuine connection are played out in harmony. Loving this drama from the bottom of my heart isn't an exaggeration; it has completely consumed me. I am practically vibrating with hype, terrified and desperate for the final two chapters, but forever grateful for the way it touched my soul.
already wanting S2 lamooooo loved it ❤️❤️❤️❤️

A drama about romanticising abusive relationships
This drama was certainly well made, with high production values and excellent acting. However, the plot was problematic for me. Basically I found my self, for the first time ever, actually hating one of the lead characters.Luan Nian (Luke) is a narcissistic, immature, inconsiderate, selfish, abusive, petty, jealous, manipulative, entitled and obnoxious bully. He entered into what I would describe as a "friends with benefits" relationship with a Flora, much younger employee, and then proceeded to insult, emotionally abuse and embarrass her almost non-stop for the majority of the drama. He never asked what she wanted, never had any empathy for her situation and never showed even the slightest hint that he had any respect for her as a person. He dominated her, bossed her around and controlled her. He told her what she should wear and who she should socialise with. It was the very definition of an emotionally abusive relationship. Some of this abusive behaviour was even romanticised in the drama, which I suspect may reflect the patriarchal norms that exist in China. Sadly Flora was unwilling or unable (or both) to do anything other than tolerate the mistreatment. That is, until she finally snapped and broke up with him.
Even in the final episodes when Luke decides that he really does "love" flora (to which I call bullshit because none of his behaviour was consistent with actually being in love), he still disrespected and manipulated her, continuing to pursue her after she very clearly told him to stop (which is sexual harassment), repeatedly turned up unannounced at her door after she told him not to (which is stalking) and just generally ignored her wishes and prioritised his own desires. Of course the drama romanticised this as well, and he soon got her back into bed.
There was a big, elaborate proposal scene in the final episode which I guess was supposed to erase all his previous toxic behaviour, but in my mind is was far too little, far too late to redeem him. If they get married, unless Luke has an entire personality transplant, I cannot see any chance that their "relationship" would be happy or successful in the long term.

Not an Easy Watch, But Definitely Worth the Patience
This is one of the dramas on my long list of on-hold dramas. Despite being one of the most anticipated dramas of 2026, I honestly wasn’t planning to watch it anytime soon. And although the cast is packed with traffic stars, I went in with little to no expectations.I started it and watched the first two episodes, but then put it on hold because I just couldn’t find it interesting at the time. I did admit, though, that the cinematography was really good. It actually reminded me a lot of Journey to You.
I eventually came back to it, and I think it really started picking up around episodes 3 or 4 because I got hooked on the Fox Sisters. From there, I just continued watching.
The plot is actually really interesting, but it can be difficult to understand. You really need good attention, comprehension, and a lot of brain cells to keep track of each character and their connections. Honestly, I think this is the kind of drama that might need at least two or even three watches to fully understand the story.
I won’t give any spoilers, but I’d say don’t give up on it too quickly. Give it another chance, and maybe even rewatch it once or twice. It gets better once you understand the plot and how everything connects.
As for the music and OSTs—I loved them all. I even downloaded some of the songs. I’ve always known Ju Jing Yi more as an OST singer than an actress because I genuinely love her songs, so I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed her acting here.
The fight scenes were also really satisfying, and I think the entire cast did a good job.
For me, the standout performances were definitely Tian Jia Rui as Ji Ling and Chi Wen. His emotions and the changes in his temperament were amazing to watch. I already knew Joseph Zeng and Chen Du Ling would deliver great performances, and they definitely did. But what surprised me the most was Ju Jing Yi.
To be completely honest, I initially thought she might be the weakest actress among the main cast. But she actually made me change my mind as the series went on. She improved so much throughout the drama, and I ended up really liking her character—second only to Tian Jia Rui’s for me.
When it comes to chemistry, don’t hate me, but I didn’t really feel that much chemistry between Joseph Zeng and Chen Du Ling. Their flirting was cute, though. 😅
But Tian Jia Rui and Ju Jing Yi's chemistry was what made the drama even more compelling for me. Their relationship, especially the sacrifices they made, added so much more emotion and depth to the story.
Overall, I think this is a good drama, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend it as a first C-drama for new viewers. It’s more suitable for people who enjoy mystery, slow-burn storytelling, complicated character connections, and plots that require you to actually pay attention.
It takes patience, but if you’re willing to give it a chance—and maybe watch it twice or even three times—I think it gets much better once everything starts to make sense.

Great start, but it lost me along the way
At first, I was actually really enjoying this drama. I gave it a 6 at first because I thought it was getting good, and I really liked the female lead and male lead. Honestly, their acting and the actors themselves were probably the biggest reason I continued watching. If it wasn’t for them, I don’t think I would’ve finished it.But as the drama continued, it started becoming way too all over the place for me. There were so many unnecessary scenes and things happening that I honestly started getting confused about where the story was even going. By the time I got closer to the end, I was just ready for it to be over.
The aunt also really started getting on my nerves. The actress did a good job with what she was given, but I just didn’t understand why it took the female lead so long to actually deal with her. I understand that she had to be careful because of the shaman/doctor who was secretly working with the aunt, but even with that, I feel like the female lead had way more resources and people behind her. She had opportunities to make a decisive move, but instead so much time was spent on hiding, putting on a facade, strategizing behind the scenes, and dragging the conflict out.
That’s what really bothered me. It felt like the story was deliberately making things more complicated than they needed to be just to prolong the plot. The female lead was capable, so there were many moments where I was literally thinking, “Girl, you could’ve ended this already.” 😭
And with the male lead, I also felt like a lot of the problems between him and the female lead could’ve been avoided if he had just been honest with her about who he was. I understand that the secrecy was supposed to create suspense and conflict, but after a while it just felt unnecessary.
I also wasn’t really satisfied with the ending. After everything that happened, I expected more of a payoff. Instead, when I reached episode 24, I was basically sitting there like, “That’s it?” 😭
Overall, I don’t think it was horrible, because I genuinely liked the leads and thought they did a good job. But the story became too messy, dragged out, and unnecessarily complicated for me. The beginning had me interested, but unfortunately the further I got, the more I just wanted it to end.
5/10 mainly because of the leads.

Tokyo Tower (2024) — A Moral Double Standard Disguised as Romance
The 2024 television adaptation of Tokyo Tower presents itself as an elegant, contemplative drama about forbidden passion, but beneath its beautiful cinematography lies a deeply fractured script struggling to balance infidelity melodrama with an idealized notion of pure love.Its main structural problem is the constant tonal dissonance between the actual conflict and the artificial gravity imposed upon it. The ending of episode seven, when a voice-over declares that “our hellish summer finally came to an end,” perfectly exposes this disconnect. The two male protagonists are single university students, with no families to support, marriages to destroy, or careers at stake. Presenting a period of reckless romantic adventure as some kind of existential ordeal reveals a badly calibrated sense of lyricism that mistakes the anxiety of getting caught for Greek tragedy.
This lack of dramatic rigor becomes even more obvious through the creation of a scapegoat designed to protect the romantic hero. In order to keep Toru and Shifumi’s relationship on an almost immaculate pedestal, the script dumps nearly all the toxicity, guilt, and destruction onto Koji’s storyline. The result is a glaring moral double standard: one young man is punished for ruining lives while the other remains a tragic, misunderstood soul. One affair is stained so the other can remain beautiful.
In the process, the story also strips its female characters of genuine agency. By eventually presenting Kimiko as a woman whose life was ruined by an irresponsible young man, the narrative refuses to let her fully own the decisions she made as a married adult. Instead, it concentrates the blame on Koji rather than exploring something far more interesting: an adult woman consciously choosing to escape the monotony of her life and then having to face the consequences of that choice.
The short format — episodes of roughly twenty-six minutes — only makes these weaknesses worse. Crises are accelerated without enough time to develop motivations organically, forcing the story to rely on dramatic shortcuts and contrived turns to reach its conclusion.
And this leads to perhaps its biggest mistake: trying to disguise consequence as liberation.
The final café encounter between the two older women is visually constructed as a gesture of female solidarity and emancipation, but dramatically it feels much closer to shared resignation. Neither woman truly chooses the destination where the story leaves her. Both are pushed out of their previous lives after their affairs collapse.
The scene does not show two independent women celebrating their newly discovered autonomy. It shows two shipwreck survivors sharing the wreckage after paying the highest price for a summer fantasy.
In its determination to sanctify some characters while condemning others, Tokyo Tower ultimately betrays the complexity of the adult drama it initially promised.
Beautiful packaging wrapped around a script too afraid to embrace the moral ambiguity of its own story.

Kinda like a Werner Herzog film.
No spoliers, so no worries.Came to this on account of Liao Fan, and because I always seek out untypical drama's. This one about panning for gold in 1986 fit the bill. Immediately one is immersed in the mileu, the setting, and with all the mud and earth and the jungle and desperate sweaty men...it's got the feel of a Werner Herzog movie. In a good way.
I AM enjoying it, however...it's painfully clear this series was heavily censored. There are so many scenes that have terrible editing within them, which indicates dialogue, actions, and even whole people were cut out. As a result, they make no sense. And if you add to that confusion the horrible englsih translation provided by iQIYI .then it's a wonder I can understand anything that's happening. Really. It's a massive chore to figure out specific plot and story points, and I'm barely staying with it. But I will because I love the whole idea of this series and the recreation of the world of gold panning is fantastic.
I'm hoping eventually it'll all make sense. But this series reminds me of the movies Heaven's Gate, All the Pretty Horses, and One-eyed Jacks...in that all 3 are films that might have been considered masterpieces if others just didn't mess with them. But in all 3 films, producers and studio heads shoved their ignorant opinions into the mix, made demands, and as a result the films came out mediocre, because ya know....the confusion. You can see there's genius in all of them, but like this series, they were cut up and it's a tragedy.
I know I'll never get to see an unedited and brilliant translation of Gold Panning, and that sucks. But I'll enjoy this nonetheless.

Review
I started Match Point as a leap of faith, I always give the Sunday show a 3 episode watch before I decide what to do. I am glad I did because I discovered this gem (I watched the pilot but that was ages ago and there were more than 20 announced shows, I honestly do not remember the plots of all the shows that have not aired yet). I fell in love with Teshow and Ping from their first scene and have devoured all of their content (pre and post series) ever since. They have portrayed Bae and Sun so well that I feel like they have become a part of my life. I will miss you so much BaeSun, I am part of the community that supported you all the way! This was a beautiful coming of age story, teaching both parents and their kids the meaning of letting go and taking a leap of faith.
BONUS I got to see the lovely Chimon as Coach Kong, who has his eyes and heart set on the handsome and suave Boat, Mr Sing😊. They are so well matched and I am eagerly awaiting their next work! Hopefully with a show of their own?🎉
I can’t wait to see what these 2 couples do in their next series!
