Meh guys it's meh
hmmm imo this is meh but nice try. Love the ost but that's it.Overall Acting 5/10, they are new so it's understandable, the 2 main leads are better tho.
Story 5/10, soap-opera-like, weird conflict, badly written, see it yourself and you'll understand.
Videography 5/10, editing is not good esp the sunset's sky ㅠㅠ inconsistent tone, and weird + boring camera angle for many parts.
Their feelings feels rushed and forced, no development whatsoever, immediately jumps to i love you, how epic :")

Unnecessary long duration for "love" scenes
They are going overboard with the love scenes. I mean it's okay to put a bit of love scene to make this series "spicier" but we all know "too much never taste good". I watch with no interest, my face becomes flat, and I decided to skip it. There's even a time when I stopped watching this series for weeks because the amount of love scenes annoys me so much.STORY
The story is so-so, not bad but not that good. Plot is fine, not messy. I appreciate their ep 0 to make sure everyone who doesn't watch Tharntype S2 (like me) could still understand their backstory and enjoy the series to the fullest. Shortly, it's about best friends who are actually in love with each other but have no courage to say so, their cowardness then leads them to misunderstand each other and ruins their relationship. I actually interested in the conflict Fiat had with his family, but the execution is not as good as I thought it would be. "Boring" is not a harsh word at all to describe the overall story.
ACTING
Obviously not great, just okay. Awkwardness is still there, weirdness is still there, everyone can tell they are new in the industry (except the older cast, they're indeed great actors).
SONG
The opening is more ear-catching than the ending song, the ending song is not my cup of tea. ALSO, why the ending MV is so weird and cringe...? whyyyyyy :((
I'm not recommending this drama and I won't rewatch all episodes, but there's a possibility I'll rewatch scenes of Leon and P'Pob, they're cute.

The second couple caught my eyes
Another action BL we rarely found these days. I actually have zero expectations for this series. I know nothing about Boat before and I didn’t watch Love By Chance and A Chance To Love properly because they suck (Gun starred in this series). Let’s talk about the trailer first~ The trailer of Golden Blood honestly seems promising to me, first because of its story and genre, their acting looks okay, and ofc the kissing scene which I’d love to watch fully with no cut :) Let’s move to the real review:STORY
The story is pretty much interesting to me. There's this "mafia boss" who has a rare-golden-blooded son. Prepared for something that'd possibly happened in the future, the mafia boss searches for another golden-blooded kid to be adopted. That kid has to donate his blood for the mafia boss's son every three months, just in case if something bad happened and his son needs it (because golden blood is so rare). Years later when his son already grew as an adult, his son was targeted to murdered by a group of "trashes" because those trashes's wish wasn't granted by him (the mafia boss). He (the mafia boss) then decided to make his adopted kid who was already 'trained' to become his son's bodyguard. Then, the journey of love begins...
ACTING
I won't say anything about Boat (Sun)'s acting skills because he's just that great. For Gun (Sky), hmmm how should I say this... I think he still needs a lot more practice. His act looked unnatural way toooo often. How he stares and smiles seems not sincere, it's like he just acts without really feeling it. His crying act is also not good, he just sobbing and crying with eyes a bit closed but no tears flowed, it doesn't make me hurt at all. That's why I give 6.5 for their acting. 4.5 is for Boat and the rest is for Gun. For the second couple, our Pitch and Bank reaaally did a great job. Those 2 are great actors and a cute couple (CUTER THAN THE MAIN COUPLE), but sadly their screentime was tooo short. What a waste of talent.
OST
I hardly remember how their osts sound like, but for as long as I could remember the opening song was good. I just don't know why it's so easily forgotten. I already forgot how it sounds as soon as the series ended.
OVERALL
I love how the story connects one another as the episodes continue. I will give a 7 if only Gun can act better than this. Overall, I will say this series is just good but I will not rewatch it (maybe I will for PitchBank part only). If you have nothing to watch, then give it a go.

A short and packed to-the-point BL story you rarely find
Short doesn't mean bad. I'm a bit surprised that it's not too fast-paced like the other short BL drama. I like that this drama is also to the point and so focused only on 1 couple which is the main couple, they only added scenes that were important to show the main couple's feeling development. As for the story...hmm I'm not really a fan, it's just so-so, not that interesting, nothing new, and not complex at all. For the acting, I think they're not that bad, but Kim Yoo Hwan (Eungyu) is surely a great actor and def in a different league compared to the other casts. I love their OSTs, the lyrics suits the drama. Because this was short and to the point, I will rewatch it again to refresh my mind.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

GOOD BUT TOO F* SHORT
Another waste of talent. Too good to be this short, I know this could've been a lot better if only it had a longer duration. Even in that short period of time, this drama could deliver how the Barista's feeling developed towards the "special customer". I personally love this kind of story about when social media life meets real life, it's kind of making me nervous in a good way. The minus is I still could felt an awkwardness in one particular scene which was the "smoking scene". It looked so unnatural when the Barista suddenly joined the "special customer" who smoked outside, and especially the "cigarette scene"! WHO ON EARTH DOING THAT TO A RANDOM PERSON FOR GOD'S SAKE. If only this movie was a bit longer maybe they would tell us the reason behind how the "cigarette scene" could happen. Speaking of their acting skills, I'd say it's just good, I still sense an awkwardness but just a bit, and their chemistry are still there. Am I going to rewatch this? Definitely yes.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
It's cringe but I keep watching it :)
In my dictionary, there are 2 types of cringe, the disgusting cringe and the funny cringe. This series fortunately is the funny cringe type. Even if it's cringing it will keep your eyes on until the last ep cause it's fun to watch.STORY
As expected from mini series, the story is lacking. There's no connection between ep, the plot is messy, which could be confusing for some people. I know they want to portray how best friend could become a lover because they spend too much time together (from work, play, etc) but how they deliver it through a story is still lacking soo much. There's no such thing as feelings development whatsoever, it's a complete mess. In such a short duration they also try hard to add a conflict but it goes wrong and becomes the weirdest ep of this series (EP 10).
ACTING
I'd say their acting skills aren't great, just okay. Even so, it's still enjoyable.
SONG
They used so many korean songs and I love it lol. Since I know a lot of these songs, I could say they used them at the right time and moment. Their choice of songs is one of the biggest factors this drama is fun to watch imo.
Overall, it's just a so-so series but not bad to watch for those who are not patient enough to wait for The Tuxedo. It's also fun to watch which could make your mood better (that works for me). It's just 12 eps with 1 min duration for each ep so why not give it a go?

BEST BL EVER!
This series sets the high standard for BL these days. For years, there's no BL that attached so deeply in my heart, but this series even makes me cry everytime I heard "I Told Sunset About You" or heard about "BKPP", and FYI it's been a year but I still can't move on from this series or its soundtracks. This series makes every week become a rollercoaster, I never being so scared watching the next ep of a series until I watched this series. I can't even think of any series that're good enough to be rivaled with I Told Sunset About You. Everything about this series are BEYOND PERFECTION, that's why I give a 10! (I want to give a 100, tho). When I said EVERYTHING, I really mean EVERYTHING.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
IT'S A PERFECTION until I watched the 2 final episodes
YO! I read the manga and the drama is exactly the "living version" of the manga EXCEPT for the latter ep. I know reading the ongoing manga first before watching the actual drama version could make a biased perspective at some point but because this is what we called LIVE ACTION I can't help but compare the drama with the manga.Ok, soooo...
I'm surprised at how the drama could copy the manga PERFECTLY (especially in the first 3 or 4 episodes). Like bruhhh this is it! It's what you called LIVE ACTION! This is how live action should be done. I really enjoyed it and am just so excited to see what I had read before become alive and their voice match perfectly with the characters. The actors are surely capable of acting. They could bring the exact same vibes from the manga to life which is a hard thing to do for actors. I also loved the soundtrack very much, they all sooo good periodt.
And now my disappointment about this drama...
The 9th and the final episode feel...empty and boring. Those eps definitely lack in the storyline and are not that exciting to watch. The storyline is not the same as the manga and unfortunately the replacement story (drama) is not as good as the original (manga). And when it ended I was like, "Is that all? Just like that?!?!". It could have been wrapped more beautifully even if it's not the same as the manga, but they can't do that and I'm a bit disappointed because THIS DRAMA IS SO GOOD. Such a pity for the final episode but believe me, WATCH THIS DRAMA AND YOU'LL HAVE A BRIGHT-FLOWERY DAYS.
...
I wish I could watch the *scene from chapter 29 but well the manga is still ongoing and I know there'd be a 2nd season. I JUST KNOW.

What a toxic relationship
Weatherman? Good idea.Weatherman x mangaka? Damn interesting.
Surprisingly toxic 5 stars weatherman love life? Sht up I will definitely watch it.
BUT LITTLE DID I KNOW
Strange...weird...the fk is this?
Story is weird but I strangely wanna know what's next, what kind of crazy action they'd do in the next episode. The misunderstanding is the most annoying thing in this drama, it is happening in every damn episode, and there's always new misunderstanding everyday like is this a story about how love could happen even without a proper communication? Like hell that'd happened __-
Next, the toxicity is mind blowing oh my goodness gracious. The relationship is too toxic, leads are walking redflags. Obsession, overly controlling behaviour, to sexual harrassment, all that you can find in this so called masterpiece✨️ What a great idea, yeah?? If you can't stand overly toxic romance then STAY AWAY FROM THIS DRAMA! I'm warning ya.
Acting...not that good but I can feel what they want to deliver. The acting might looks boring and makes you sleepy but that's how it supposed to be so prepare your coffee☕️
Music not my taste and forgettable. What I remember is the cricket sound effect and the typical piano instrumental for morning days in dorama.
Do I want to rewatch this? Yes but not all episodes, just the hot steamy- KIDDING!! Maybe only the "nagi" ep or any ep with their university days bcs the leads younger self were too shining shimmering splendid.
Do I recommend this? Well this is an enjoyable one time watch so what do you waiting for? Just watch it.

Light drama with a surprisingly heavy backstory
I'm out of words. It started as a refreshing, fluffy, and light drama but the unexpected twist at the latter ep would leave you jaw-dropped. *kidding*. Let's say "shocked". Since the beginning, I'm not expecting anything heavy from this drama at all. I thought it'd be slice-of-lifey, kind of like Reply, but mannn I was wrong. Let's jump to the full review based on my point of view.STORY
This drama defines "every charming-flawless-like guy has their own dark secret" perfectly. Starting smoothly with no major problems, from introducing every cast in the first episode, and then circulating in Chief Hong-Hyejin life. I love that this drama gave every cast a perfect amount of screentime and their own story, so there's a complexity and also a variety of struggles everyone's facing from any background. I'm surprised they also included an LGBT topic here, and it's even an L, how rare. And they even brought up mental health issues... but it doesn't feel as heavy as I think it'd be, just making me cry a lil bit too much and got a headache. In the end, it's not a light drama.
ACTING
I have nothing bad to say, I'm not going to critique any of them, they're ALL great actors. Not only 1 2 or 3 of them but ALL OF THEM are great actors. From the oldest to the youngest did their job really well, they all sure can act. Actually, I was surprised by Bora and I-jun's acting skills, like how could they act so well at such young age?! For Kim Seon Ho, he is incredible, I'm glad his talent is now recognized by the world :( As for Shin Min Ah...as long as I could remember, she could act very well BUT I THINK in this drama there are still lacks here and there. I don't know if that's how she's supposed to act like but somehow for some scenes, I feel it looked too much and a bit unnatural(?) yet still manageable. Honorable mention for Hwa Jeong, Gam Ri, Nam Sook, and Yun Kyung, they're amazing! I won't forget Hwa Jeong's umbrella scene, Gam Ri's telephone scene with her son, Nam Sook's loss, and Yun Kyung's shoelaces scene.
OST
I'm a fan of this drama's ost! Especially the one sung by Sandeul and Seungmin. Dammmnnn those are good song, bruh. Just my style.
OVERALL
This drama is worth the wait. It meets my high expectation. An excellent story delivered by great actors, what's more to ask? Maybe more episodes? That'd be interesting. Am I going to rewatch it? OF COURSE! I will back for Hong Banjangggg~~ 9.5/10 is not overrated I think.

A light romance drama that's not boring to watch
Well well well, a story about a relationship between a doctor and a nurse is a mainstream one. We all know that. But, the vibe, the light romance, and the one-of-a-kind japanese comedy that this drama has become their different-from-the-other dramas points. I mean a lot of medical-related dramas always have a heavy problem, but not with this drama, it's fun and exciting to watch. Not to mention the casts's acting ability, like DAMNNN the crying scene of Sato Takeru still gives me goosebumps, it makes me cried really hard with him. Oh, I also really love how this drama is so focused on the main couple's relationship development so that we know what exactly is happening and not missing anything. Loved it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Good camera for a badly written series which then made by slowmo addicts, what a waste
The casts talked too slow! Too much unnecessary slow motion! I don't think the editors understand the 10 seconds rule in shooting technique, so many scenes are boring to watch because of that reason. The story is NOT RICH, it's mainstream, boring, not deep, the way they connect the story is also weird, and just visible that it's badly written. The actors's acting skills is not good, except Aek, Aue, and Aek's Mom. The main couple (Aue and Aek) is good, they're cute together, their chemistry was there but sometimes it seems more like brothers chemistry, not a lovers. The 2nd couple (Vich and Prem) has no chemistry at all, it's so weird to watch :(( I personally love all of their soundtracks and their cinematography, but FOR WHAT? if the main components of this series are way far from the good sign.Conclusion:
If you planned on wasting your time then watch this.
Note:
The last ep (ep 11) is my favorite from this series, because they talked in a "normal" way and Aue looks so cute. That's the only reason :)

What a funny yet talented cops!
I actually watched this in two parts (30-minutes and 80-minutes) but that didn't decrease the mood and the enjoyment that has been set by this movie at all. I still remember vividly what was the 1st 30-minutes about. That's one of the signs of how good this movie is. There's nothing new about the overall story, but I really appreciate the way this movie portrays the "unique" friendship between different teams in the same police department. I mean it's still rare (I think) because what I've always found in this kind of genre was the high tension, over-competitiveness, and hatred growing between teams in the same department or even in the whole police office like, "are all police an enemy in the blanket for each other or what??". And for the acting skills...THEY ALL NAILED IT AS I EXPECTED. I laughed a lot, smiled a lot, and also THRILLED A LOT. No bad actors could make me feel that way. Overall it's a really GOOD MOVIE. Not too much but not too less, just a perfect dose of seriousness and hilariousness "for me". I don't know why the rating is only 8.3 on MDL. After all, people have different tastes and I'm not one who enjoyed the too-serious type of movie, so this movie is just perfect for me. I really enjoyed it and will respectfully rewatch it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

This reminds me of Maze Runner but in Money Heist X P.E Class costumes
I thought it would be interesting from start to end but nah I was wrong.I thought it would be very new and different from other k-thriller dramas but nah I was wrong again. It is actually a clever idea to combine two phenomenal movies' ideas into 1 drama, and the idea of using childhood games as the main focus here is insane. I never thought child's games could be this dangerous. Set aside the clever idea, I personally hate the "blood" they're using, it looks too fake.
To be honest...
I really loved the overall drama...at first, but I lost bit by bit of my interest after the 1st half of the total episodes. As the episodes went on, this drama felt ordinary and bland. I became numb seeing their fighting and killing scenes, it happened too often and became boring (not to mention the ridiculous blood they're using, too watery!). I expect this drama to be different but it turns out as one of Netflix's typical k-crime action thriller drama with a hanging ending and lots of untold truth. Maybe there'd be S2? that'd be good, I'm not that interested tho.
Conclusion: that's okay, just give it a go, it's exciting.
Last but not least, WI HA JOON I LOVE YOU TO THE MOON AND BACK!

Living lie detector? Hell yeah I'm here for it
Love the idea about hearing lie and make money from that, THAT'S PURE GENIUS. I always love this kind of fantasy, sumn like Bongsoon or Girl Who See Smell. Interesting checked✅️THIS IS WHERE THINGS GOT HEATED
Love Sohyun's acting, don't know if I'm being biased or sumn because I love her since forever. But Minhyun's acting is a mild no. Not good but not that bad actually but clearly needs more acting classes. Chemistry? 404 not found. Chemistry between the handsome fans and Syaon are way way much greater, would love to see those two in another drama.
Storyline...hmm...pretty understandable, the flow is enjoyable, and contains an unpredictable shocking plot twist. But the moment I finished it, I don't remember much of the story. I feel the "what was that again?" moment after watching this.
Do I want to rewatch it? Yes, but only the scenes where Sohyun did her job as lie detector, it's fascinating to see. Rewatching whole drama? No, I'm good watched it once.
