One of the best BLs I've seen (and rewatched)
This ended up being my first kBL. I was relatively new to watching BLs in general at the time and had only seen a few thai BLs but WOW!?Semantic Error was such a fresh show for me, the acting was perfect, the chemistry was COOKING. I ended up rewatching the whole show 10 months after watching for the first time and my rating for the show went UP. I had originally put it at a 9/10 but I changed it to a 9.5 The ONLY reason its not a 10/10 was its so so short rip. Not that it needed the typical kdrama 1hr episodes for 16 episodes because tbh I get bored easily. There was not a single slow part and not a single time that I watched on 2x speed (I do this a lot in some of the other BLs). This opened up to me all the other amazing kBLs that I have also come to love. Semantic Error will always have a special place in my heart :)

best bl to ever grace this earth...
if anyone is considering watching, do yourself a favor and start now.this is the best drama i've ever watched. the story was so well done and suprisingly paced well, it didn't feel rushed at all. it actually had a cohesive storyline that I could follow, unlike some of the other far fetched and confusing storylines that seem to be prominent in bls. the romance in this drama is top tier, all of their romantic scenes were amazingly done and they felt natural, not awkward or out of nowhere at all. the music is suprisngly good, it seems to be hard to find dramas with good music lately. they're so good i even had to put them on my playlist, i really like can you stay. actors are really good too, i feel their chemistry! loooove the side characters too.
overall this is just an amazing drama and i've rewatched it like a billion times ;P

The best light hearted Korean BL!
Looking for a show to watch after crying your eyes out? Look no further but for Semantic Error! This show is so cute, and I have watched it about nine times since it came out. This show is very simple. It's a university enemy to lovers story. There is no big blow up in the plot, and it will not make you cry. This show is not for someone who likes very deep and in depth shows. I like light-hearted shows with lots of fluff, and that is what this show brings to the table! This is actually one out of my eleven 10/10 shows. I recommend this show to anyone who is new to BL or new to kdramas in general. Even though Sang woo can frustrate watchers because hes so orderly, you come to love is quirks. The character development that we get to see from Jaechan's character (sang woo) is actually so nice. Jaeyoung is definitely a fun character who knows what he wants! The side characters aka Jae youngs friends were so funny!ANYWAY, there is nothing I can complain about for this series. I have yet to find a Korean BL that lives up to this! Definitely give this show a try!

SIMPLESMENTE MUITO BOM
o dorama é muito viciante, tanto que assisti tudo em um dia (mesmo sendo muito curto), e te deixa completamente preso porque a história é muito bem feita. o casal principal tem MUITA química (até na vida real, recomendo assistir os vídeos/entrevistas deles no youtube) e te faz querer estar no lugar de um deles. é muito fofo como todos no dorama têm muito respeito pelos outros, exemplo o sangwoo pedindo pro jaeyong avisar quando fosse tocar nele (e ele aceitou e fez isso pelo resto do bl)...Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

To warm your heart!!!
If you are looking for something cute and funny to watch, i sincerely recommend you this. The enemies to lovers story is hilarious and sweet. Sang wpp character it’s such so damn funny because he literally doesn’t know how to express his emotions and feelings and it’s just really cute watching him learning how to do it. Jaeyoung is literally the funniest person ever. This couple made my heart warm. It’s both good and addictive in a way that makes you want to know more and more and keep watching it. Gonna be serious: i almost gave up on the second episode because i wasn’t enjoying it but then BOOM. I feel in love. The characters are honestly so freaking cute, it’s cuteness overall. And most importantly: it’s healthy. I didn’t give it a 10 because i wanted and needed more, i wished we could have more scenes of this couple and more interactions between them and Jaeyoung friends.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
this is the best BL ever made and I will die on this hill
Are you kidding me ?Enemies to friends to lovers ?? Is it my birthday?
I went into it not expecting much bc we all know bl kdramas are not of the best quality (although it's getting a lot better) and well...jaw on the floor many times.
I can't think of a single thing I hated and the only reason I didn't give a 10 is bc my most favorite dramas can't be on the same level.
it was so cute and fluffy and there is no problematic scene (that I remember) ASKING FOR A KISS ? FOR PERMISSION? IN A BL DRAMA ? Marry me already
I'm sorry this gets me heated
I need to log off before I start to rewatch it right now

BRAVO! BRAVO!!!
To clarify, I hate the enemies to lovers trope. I always thought it was too much trouble and never executed properly.THIS, however... I loved it. I loved it so much. The story is sweet, easy to follow and flows well. Great acting, lovely scenes and scenery...
It's an adorable idea how this cold and "robotic" guy can turn into a mess when he's with someone he loves. It's adorable. They're adorable. Great chemistry, cute ideas.
I wanted to stand up and clap when I finished the last episode...

An Actual Masterpiece
This one is an absolute classic for a very good reason.The setting and plot may be nothing new, but the show makes full use of them and breathes new life into well-established tropes until it all comes together to create something truly unique.
The music and camera work fit the story perfectly, the acting is excellent, the script is tight, and the clever writing infuses the whole story with a dry, understated humour which suits the characters perfectly.
In short - the show is technically excellent.
But it's not just the fact that the show is objectively good that has so successfully endeared it to viewers.
It's how lovable and relatable the characters are. They are all clearly their own people with their own unique personalities which clash often, but also often mesh together very well, allowing for interesting friendships to form.
They feel incredibly true to life and frankly, seem to me like the exact type of unusual yet charming weirdos you'd find at any university or college campus.
Another strong suit of the show is its depiction of queer people and friendships. You won't find any stale romance tropes here, no queer relationships forced into weird, heterosexual dynamics. The characters respect each other's boundaries and take care not to overstep them, even when they're actively making a nuisance of themselves.
Sangwoo asks Jaeyoung to warn him in advance before touching him, so Jaeyoung does. Jaeyoung asks Sangwoo to not completely push him away and Sangwoo agrees to take some time to think about their relationship going forward.
They both try their best to stick together and make things work between them, yet never fall into a co-dependent "I'd sacrifice everything to be with you" dynamic.
Add to that some stand-out supporting characters (Yu Na, my absolute favourite), healthy male-female friendships, and some truly wonderful casual queer representation, and you've got an undeniable recipe for success.
If you haven't seen this show yet, I highly recommend that you do. I envy anyone who gets to experience watching it for the first time.

É Simples, mas é bom e muito fofo! Vale a pena.
A atuação é perfeita, a ost consegue ser cômica com as partes do JangJae que conseguem ser cativantes, a história é ótima, é algo mais simples sem muitos desenrolados mas tem o perfeito simples que faz prender a atenção em: ele vai levar adiante essa curta e boba vingança e o que Chu Sangwoo irá fazer com esse grude para cima de si?As fotografias são muito bonitas no drama todo.
É interessante ressaltar que foi criativo usar "erro" como o aceleramento cardíaco do Chu Sangwoo, já que Jang Jae mencionou que via ele como um cara que tem a mente como de um computador.
Semantic Error
O Kdrama, que nos apresenta a vida de Sangwoo um jovem integro e pontual, no terceiro ano da sua faculdade de ciências da computação, ele lida com um pequeno incomodo Diário JangJae um formando que por falta de responsabilidade ficou prejudicado por um trabalho em grupo. Trabalho este Chu Sangwoo fez sozinho pelos colegas não se interessae pela sua monotonia e retirou o nome dos colegas folgados ao apresentar o trabalho, afetando em problemas sérios para JangJae.
Apesar de que JangJae o bonitao e popular da faculdade que descide se vingar do Chu Sangwoo, com as perturbações diarias ao colega mais jovem, um certo interesse surge sobre a aparência deste que vive todo santo dia de boné. Descidido na vingança ja que os pontos do trbalaho interdisciplinar afetaria os pontos e creditos para estudos no exterior, achou que fosse a perfeita opção perturba-lo.
Ate que a convivência da perturbação, começa despertar o interesses um pelo o outro, JangJae mostra durante o curto drama curiosidade sobre a feição, sobre as habilidades, de Chu Sangwoo e aos poucos aquela perseguição começa a ficar mais suave e estranhamente aquilo tudo acontecendo chamou a atenção de Sangwoo que ambos começam a ter curtas e pequenas troca de olhares e ceder em momentos que não adianta discutir um com o outro.
Mas com o passar dos momentos Chu Sangwoo sem entender o que está sentindo por Jang Jae, aos poucos toma atitudes que ele mesmo não esperava de si, assim como JangJae que tomou a atitude para cima daquele que estava gostando de verdade.
ps: um cura ressaca de dorama esplêndido!

Very good and captivating
I agree like most people that the storyline is a bit typical in BL romance; university setting, enemies to lovers, forced to work together, etc. Despite this, it captures your attention like no other.Both the actors are damn talented. Not only are they both very good-looking but have a certain charm as well. Not to forget, the chemistry between the two actors is electric. Their interactions were the best throughout the series and their acting was so good.
Another thing I enjoyed was their work talk. I guess that makes me a bit of a nerd but I enjoyed their talks about designing and developing the game.
Including a lesbian character was a big plus in my books. However, she was not in a relationship but her mentioning that she had a girlfriend made me like her even more than I did before. She is extremely attractive. No doubt.

The best in representing the enemies-to-lovers trope!
The incredible chase between the main leads is memorable as it was youthful, playful, and impactful. Starting from Sang-U’s sheer coldness towards everyone, it reflects onto his own atmosphere and plays a huge part in emphasizing the contrast between his and Jae Young’s conflicting personalities. Sang-U were consistent in not breaking his known image as Jae Young were consistent in trying to break the said image of Sang-U. All these main points discreetly complete the puzzle that makes this show’s remarkable and wonderful performance.The conflict that the main leads went through inherently focused on something that is questionably relevant up to this day which had me hoping that they would discuss and portray those problems fairly, and they did exactly that. The take they had towards these problems weren’t exactly as heavy, and it couldn’t be classified as light-hearted as well which makes it perfect to me; especially if you are considering to watch this show and anticipating a light-hearted, cute, and gentle outcome. Moreover, the chemistry between the actors is outstanding, seeing that most viewers are hooked and wanted to know more about the said actors after watching the show (I’m so happy when I found out that they are both K-pop idols! King behavior me thinks). The viewers are immediately attached, including myself, which definitely played a part in making this show successful as it is today.
I’m giving this a 9.5/10 rating, considering all the mentioned points above. I didn’t give this a perfect rating only because of the short episode duration and lack of episodes of the series. I’m still longing for the day when Korean BLs would be able to produce 40 min - 1hr long episodes with 12 episodes or more. If we’re going to talk about the flaws that this series have, it would really just be me wanting more Sang-U and Jae Young interactions. Lastly, this might be a very late review as this ended a few weeks ago, but I'm telling everyone who's reading this review to re-watch this series again as it is definitely worth your time!

I finally understand it!
Pals, I finally understand it! The hype, the love, the fanbase of this masterpiece!I put it off for the longest time and regret it! It is an easy watch, 8 episodes a ~25 minutes, but it felt like seconds! I could easily watch 20 episodes with a runtime of 50+ minutes with those two leads and the support crew is also amazing!
Their chemistry is through the roof and the skinship is soooo natural and sweet and, you know, the chemistry is chemistrying! You can see and feel the build up, the soft smiles and glances and the frustrated frowns of not understanding the emotions and body reactions for someone who always thinks logically and I had a blast!
I found it hard to find something that would catch my interest lately, my squirrel brain couldn't find the nuts, but oh pals, I finally found it! I watched a lot of Thai Bls in the past month and none of them was bad, but they got repetative and I found myself more often than not parallel on my phone (I don't understand Thai, so I had to rev back a lot of times!).
But Semantic Error had me from the first second (the visuals! They are no joke!) till the last second (just THEM! Their relationship is so naturel, no flinching or frowning or stiff shoulders, just smooth kisses and touches!) and the story had a really nice pacing, the behind the scenes work was great, the lighting and coloring just beautiful and the music was on point and had me dancing along!
Sorry for my english, I'm too excited to console google translator xD
If you were unsure about it, just watch it! It is definitly worse your time and it doesn't take too much of it! Sadly....
