MUST WATCH!!!!!
I swear I was NOT gonna watch this bcz I'm not a huge fan of Chinese BLs!! Just playing it in the background and then BOOM — their acting in that one scene??? I actually gasped. No exaggeration, just pure acting and I felt everything 😭 I paused, rewound, and suddenly I’m like “cancel my plans, I need to see more of them RIGHT NOW.” Binged watched three episodes later at 2 am and I’m fully obsessed. The talent and acting is unreal!!Hats off to Ayden and Elio 👏 I'll definitely tune in if they are casted as a cp in another BL

unique superhero drama
Moving is not just one of the best K-dramas in recent years—it's one of the finest series I've watched, period. What starts as a superhero story evolves into a deeply emotional journey about family, sacrifice, love, and the lengths parents will go to protect their children. Every character feels real, every performance leaves an impact, and the storytelling is nothing short of brilliant. The perfect blend of action, mystery, suspense, and heartfelt emotion keeps you hooked while giving each moment genuine weight. Rarely does a series entertain and move you in equal measure. A true masterpiece and an absolute must-watch.Was this review helpful to you?

Stayed for those WonderFools!
Going into this show, I had a different idea of what it was going to be. The trailer was fantastic showing chaotic superhero adventure where a group of ppl with powers would be uncovering mysteries around their town. While the show did have those elements, the actual story took a very different direction than what i anticipated. Instead of focusing primarily on superhero antics, the plot was much more centered on the origins of the powers, the scientific lab experiments behind them, and the mystery surrounding the "Child of eternity” .Nevertheless I still had a great time with it.
The biggest highlight for me was undoubtedly the Wonderfools themselves. As a group, they were endlessly entertaining. Their chemistry felt natural, and so many of their interactions had me laughing. Even during the more serious moments, their dynamic kept the show fun and engaging. They truly carried the heart of the series.
I still have a few thoughts and questions about certain aspects of the story, which I'll get into below.👇🏻
One thing I found strangest was how the story handled its antagonists. While there were definitely people doing terrible things, I never really viewed the Wonder Kinder kids as villains. To me, they felt more like victims, ultimately used as pawns by people with their own agendas. Their actions caused harm, but they were also being deceived and exploited. Because of that, I couldn't help feeling sympathetic toward them.
And HoRan, my girl, deserved the world!!! She was hands down one of my favorites. A complete badass yet also the biggest lover girl at heart. I was rooting for her the entire time, and honestly, I felt so sorry for her.
This is also why I wish they had received a more hopeful ending. Since the series is ultimately a feel-good fantasy comedy, I think it would have been more satisfying if everyone had found a way to work together in the end rather than being forced into conflict.
Plus why was the FL’s grandmother part of those scientific experiments? What was her agenda doing that in the past ?
Overall, even though the show wasn't what the trailers led me to expect, it still managed to win me over with its lovable cast, humor, and surprisingly emotional story. It was an enjoyable ride nonetheless.

Another Khemjira disappointment
I'm gonna judge this so hard so buckle up or just skip my review~I love horror and this started off pretty well till they started to do some stuff that didn't make any sense and spoils the whole thing for me.
What i really liked is
1-the makeup and visual effects, the ghosts looked genuinely scary and all the victims and dead were very believable.
2-the story, but not the storylines, weird i know but the idea on paper looks so good, i think it went downhill because of the direction, and the characters were written in a very bad way.
What i didn't like:
1-chararacters, i don't understand what's the idea of giving a very not talanted actors the leading roles in a genre that doesn't fit them, I'm sorry but pooh is poorly talanted, still better than others and he is getting better than in his previous work i have to admit, however my sweet boy had only one facial expression if not scared, he looked at pavel as if he'll jump him any second and that's it, i guess he'd fit in a high school romance maybe, also pavel despite doing well, he looked so young i couldn't take him seriously, this is the leader of the investigation team?? No way.
2- some illogical mistakes, how can you, while investigating a serial crime scenes with a killer on the loose, take a kid, who was a suspect/witness, and let him live in your house, share highly sensitive evidences with, let him know the investigation process and moreover visit crime scenes, victims homes and even give you tips and ideas about how to do your job and what to do next!!! Wtf, mate, this ain't Disneyland!! Let him go, i see no point of him being with him except that they don't have any other way for the 2 leads to be together so we'll just let them live together.
And I'm not even going to talk about how more than half the show it's about the characters relationship not the crime, nor that mushy coroner and his pink haired lover and how he added nothing to the story except getting hurt and being annoying.
I think they should get a korean director maybe, because thai is superior in the horror genre but not the horror bl maybe ~

A cozy detective mystery mixed with slice of life elements
It does include some murders and a mummified body but still it's cozy,and doesn't feel really serious.it was pretty low stakes drama for me except episodes 4&5, I was really worried for them.miyabi made me wonder how she became a journalist by how blunt she was 😭😭.I previously heard about the manga and when I got the know it had an adaptation I was interested in it.but just after finishing the show did I got to know that they both confessed their feelings at the last chapter.while watching this show I was skeptical and "do I remember right"? was the question that was roaming by head,cause they are cute but tbh I'm not smart enough to figure out their feelings.so I was going back and forth between platonic and romantic.
I love how after the episode ends everything goes back to normal the other day,like this one day Taro's dad literally doubted his wife and the next day they are a happy family.
I wish it gets a second season 🤞🤞

A masterpiece in the making!
This is a masterpiece! The last 10+ minutes of Episode 2 gave me goosebump...I was holding my breath the entire time. I could literally feel the struggle Tanrak was going through, and that too without a single dialogue? Oh man...Fourth did justice to this role...what an acting that was 👏 and Gemini improved tremendously. I'm nervous going forward...anticipating how the series will go, but I'm sat for this.Was this review helpful to you?
king & queen of micro-expressions!!
things aren’t what they first seem here.bai lu is crafting one of her most compelling and complex characters in Ye Li, and regardless of what lengths she goes to, our hearts understand and hurt for her. not any leading lady could pull off this role, it requires the skill to convey a lot with extreme subtlety. bai lu is more than up to the challenge.
i’d say this is also one of the fresher takes on a mastermind character, portrayed with an appropriate amount of tenderness and disorder.
so we get a revenge story, where the mystery extends, envelopes and includes our main protagonist.
the weakness of this:
i wanted cheng lei to be given more to work with because his part of this leaves me wanting more. i feel he was underutilized here.
the romance isnt going for “romance” as much as its going for “healing” and “connection”. i personally dont mind that this doesnt feel sweepingly romantic, but ive seen people mention it as a minus.
something i do struggle with is that some plotting aspects seemed disjointed. the core was really good so its hard to notice but the weave could’ve been tighter. many subplots felt like they were put on pause so the main thing could happen without in world good enough justification.
so its very good, worth the watch if you like historical dramas, but has its flaws.

Power, Corruption, and the Hunt for Big Mouse
I expected very little from 'Big Mouth'. From the title and synopsis, I imagined another light-hearted legal comedy in the style of 'Boston Legal', but featuring an incompetent lawyer stumbling from one lost case to another.I could not have been more wrong.
Big Mouth quickly transforms into a gripping conspiracy thriller that keeps you guessing almost until the very last episode.
Park Chang-ho is a third-rate lawyer with an embarrassingly low success rate. Nicknamed "Big Mouth" because he talks a big game but rarely delivers, he survives only because of the unwavering support of his devoted wife. An orphan with no influential connections, he struggles under mountains of debt while trying to keep his tiny law practice afloat.
Then comes the case that changes everything.
The city mayor unexpectedly hires Chang-ho to defend a group of wealthy elites implicated in the mysterious death of Professor Seo. The assignment seems suspicious from the start. Why would powerful men choose the city's worst lawyer unless they wanted him to fail?
Desperate to seize an opportunity, Chang-ho attempts to blackmail the man he believes orchestrated the murder. Instead, he walks straight into a carefully laid trap. Overnight, he is framed as the infamous "Big Mouse"—a legendary criminal mastermind and swindler who has manipulated the city's most powerful figures from the shadows.
From that moment, his life becomes a nightmare.
Thrown into prison, Chang-ho finds himself surrounded by dangerous criminals, corrupt prison officials, and inmates who either fear him or worship him. Outside the prison walls, his courageous wife risks everything to clear his name, unknowingly placing herself directly in the crosshairs of people who would kill to protect their secrets.
The drama becomes an exhilarating game of cat and mouse, where nobody can be trusted and everyone seems to be hiding another identity.
What keeps viewers hooked is the central mystery:
**Who really framed Park Chang-ho?** **Why did they frame him?**
And perhaps even more intriguingly:
**Who is the real Big Mouse?**
The drama constantly plays with your suspicions. Every few episodes, I found myself changing my mind. Could it be Jerry? The Mayor? The prison warden? One of the inmates? One of the city elites he was hired to defend? Someone inside the prosecutor's office? Every clue points in a different direction, while every witness who gets too close to the truth mysteriously disappears or dies.
At one point, I even wondered whether Chang-ho himself might unknowingly be Big Mouse. The way criminals obey him and events unfold around him makes the audience question everything they think they know.
Adding to the mystery are the bizarre incidents occurring inside the prison. Healthy inmates suddenly collapse. Others lose their sanity without explanation. Strange nutritional supplements are distributed throughout the prison, supposedly for health benefits.
But are they really just health supplements?
Or is someone secretly using prisoners as human guinea pigs for illegal experiments?
The deeper the investigation goes, the darker the conspiracy becomes. Politicians, prosecutors, businessmen, doctors, and criminals all appear connected through an invisible web of corruption that reaches the very top of society. Some wear expensive suits. Some occupy positions of authority. Some are respected influential member of society. Yet beneath their respectable appearances lurk monsters every bit as dangerous as the gangsters behind bars.
Despite the constant tension, the drama also provides moments of unexpected humour. Watching the terrified Chang-ho desperately trying to convince others that he is *not* Big Mouse, only to have everyone around him bow respectfully to their supposed leader, is genuinely hilarious.
Of course, there are moments that require a suspension of disbelief. Some characters make astonishingly foolish decisions, such as running towards explosions rather than away from them. The subplot involving terminal leukaemia developing almost immediately after exposure to radioactive waste water also stretches credibility well beyond reality.
Fortunately, these flaws are minor compared with the overall quality of the story.
Just when you think the mystery has been solved, the drama shifts gears again into a tense race between good and evil, where every move could cost someone their life. The suspense rarely lets up, and every revelation only uncovers another layer of deception.
I was completely hooked.
Despite a few far-fetched moments, I thoroughly enjoyed the intricate plotting, the constant twists, and the satisfying blend of legal drama, prison survival, political corruption, and psychological mystery.
Although justice is not entirely served. In one of the drama's most frustrating moments, a villain responsible for horrific crimes dies before his deeds are exposed and is posthumously awarded one of the nation's highest honours by the country's President. Instead of being remembered as a criminal, he is celebrated as a hero—a bitter reminder that truth does not always prevail and that appearances can outlive reality.
For me, this is an easy **10/10** and a highly recommended watch. If you enjoy dramas where nothing is as it seems and every episode leaves you questioning who can truly be trusted, **Big Mouth** delivers brilliantly.

THE BEST STARTING EVER IN BL HISTORY (WORTH THE WAIT )
TICKET TO HEAVEN, WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS IS ONLY THE START? 😭 The opening was absolutely incredible and I'm already emotionally attached. Gemini and Fourth have me locked in from the first episode, and I can already tell they're about to ruin my life. Fourth said to prepare a box of tissues, and for once I am choosing to listen. My expectations are high, my tissues are ready, and my emotional stability is in danger.If you're not watching Ticket to Heaven yet, what are you doing? Get on this flight with the rest of us before we're all crying together every week. ✈️😭💙Was this review helpful to you?
Such a sweet romantic tale
Started watching it randomly and was blown away and got hooked BADLY, finished it in 3 days and just wish I could experience it all again for the first time.The acting by the main leads is amazing, this was my first ever time watching Dylan Wang and I am amazed by how good he is. I think I am gonna watch more dramas of the two main leads.
The story is amazing, I honestly wish there was more. The tracks are all so nice to hear as well.
I never skipped the ost track because of how beautiful it was.

A story about loneliness and the struggles of everyday life...
Many viewers won't like this series much, because first it's not a BL, secondly there is no real drama but many heartwarming/heartbreaking moments in this story. It's a slice of life where two people drawn together, fight their past baggage and come together in the end.It depicts the struggles especially in Japan where social pressure and expecations are a real burden. The last episode Azuma describes that best: "I feel like I've just been running in circles. I kept telling myself I'd take a real break when things settle down. But "settling down"... if you don't force yourself to take the time, it feels like it'll never happen."
We see the disconnect of families like Kuji and his brother, who takes the house Kuji is living in, not just because he inherited but despite his hate for his father. He does not really need that house but he kicks Kuji out of it regardless. Azumas mom is struggeling with loneliness because many eldery people left alone because their spouses already left and their children are struggeling themselves not investing the time to be there for them.
This is slow pacing, some may say boring, but life itself is not an action movie. It's running in circles and to break out of that circle is the real challenge both of them faces. And in the end, they manage to do it.
These are veteran actors not needing a queer role to stay relevant. Of course Takeda Kouhei is best known to us for his role in "Oldfashion Cupcake" while for Shibuya Kento it's his first stop at such an series as a main role (he was a guest in Ossans Love). Both did an amazing job and overall the cast was strong. Production quality and cinematography was on point with slow movements and great pictures to punctuate the actors characters and performance.
If you are tired of the 100th school BL this is something completely different, a mature look of two people struggeling and a sensitive composition of how two people can find to each other without the usual drama and silly scripts. I can't do no other as highly recommand you to watch this. But this is not for escapists, this is for people who want to improve their understanding.

Incest or not
Honestly the whole time I was watch the show the only thing I could focus on was yooha and his “brothers” relationship. First it never gave brother it was giving more couple vibes than anything. Unpopular opinion but they lwk had more chemistry than the people they were actually paired with. The “fights” they had gave old couple arguments. They made the brother the bad guy at the end which kinda made no sense since we seen him as this kinda caring and overbearing character. I feel like the main couple was good but it wasn’t giving chemistry if that makes sense. I never want to watch again.Was this review helpful to you?
A Dog And A Plane is chaotic, silly , unhinged ,heartfelt and TayNew make it all work. Newwiee makes Kanit’s emotions so real, the hesitation before he speaks, the disappointment he tries to hide,the way his face falls,the joy on his face when he thinks of Lion or even the annoyance yet intrigue he shows towards Toto, his face say everything before a dialogue does. Tay Tawan as Toto doesn’t feel like a performance at all.He is so natural that everything he does feels like he exists. A character that could have been so over-the-top instead feels very alive , grounded and surprisingly warm.
I am pleasantly surprised. 18months was worth the wait because, if this is how things are starting, I can’t even imagine what’s coming next. I absolutely cannot wait.

had the potential to be so much more!
this has to be one of the most beautiful locations and cinematographies I've ever seen in any drama!unfortunately, the plot felt pretty disappointing. it felt very rushed and disconnected. we know very little about the character, so it's hard to feel connected to them. i really wish they made it clear how much time has passed so that we could actually understand how they fell in love. it felt like they met each other one day, and the next day they were somehow head over heels in love. the "conflict" felt pretty nonsense to me.
the actors did a pretty good job, despite the limited scope. both of them are very good looking. especially Wang Chen Rui, he is so damn handsome😩 and such a good actor too! i would love to see him in full length BLs!
the only reason why I'm not giving this a lower rating is, considering the duration of this entire show is less than an hour, overall it was still enjoyable for me because of the cinematography and the actors!

Hmmm
The scriptwriter needs to be a little bit more creative in the conversations because some actors are really not good from shifting to calm and suddenly blow up. Yes they have tears in their eyes but the Jody and the face does not show the emotions of their words.Tgw story line is good. Male. Lead is pretty good. Female. Lead... Im not so sure.
