Age Gap Fantastic For once
I haven't seen an age gap film from any place done any better than Dating in the Kitchen. It was complete perfection. I think it is up there with Pretty Woman Julia Roberts / Richard Gere & Sabrina with Audrey Hepburn/ Humphrey Bogart or later with Julia Ormond/Harrison Ford. The actor Lin Yu Shen well, he was perfection as the older man. Especially his reaction to being called Senior or Fuzzy Lu, he was just so good at controlled outrage. The beginning scene with him and Zhao Lu Si where she has messed with his car is just wonderful. She stands on tip toe for him to write his # on her forehead is just so captivating. His reaction to that well, you think he is a goner from the start. The supporting cast are all great, they back up the film wonderfully. I have re-watched this over and over. I will never get tired of it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

My 1st Life rewatch 2nd 3rd great
I have watched this drama many times & I will watch it many more. The story to me never gets old. The cast & acting was top grade. I grew to love the main leads Lee Min Kii & Jung So Min . The supporting cast were all top grade actors & the series got their monies worth. The story line was direct & it stayed that way through out the drama. I appreciate that. Often times more isn't better. Even the yelling which can get really annoying in Kdrama's was great. It carried a familiar theme guy lead being the upper & the female lead being lower, but anywhere it is rarely any different. I guess stick with what works. Grew to love the male lead in this series. Jung So Min I have never seen her do anything wrong when acting. She is lovable beautiful & always believable.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
A Must Watch BL
I have just finished this BL for the 2nd time & it was worth revisiting. Second time around I really appreciated how both male leads were able to emote so perfectly. It seemed like the whole series came at the perfect moment, perfect cast, perfect story & director knew what was up. It displayed so well how young adults react to situations, I hope some young person sees this & it helps them. I love the way the couple's romance grew slowly & realistically overtime. I also give props to the story writer & developer because they kept it real. Not all persons are accepting and it is not very true to depict life any other way.What I despise about BL's in general - they ship the actors as couples in real life WHY they are actors it is acting. That maybe a reason why these good actors have issues with one another after the success of their series. When your job is done go home to your RL instead of making them pretend fiction is RL. just to please some disillusioned fan & to drain every dime you can from the fans through lying. I feel this series will stand the test of time & I think that Ohm & Nanon did some of the best acting I have seen in a BL. Loved it

Building's did collapse
I found the premise of this movie very interesting, but because I knew it would be an emotional rollercoaster I put off watching it. It was a rollercoaster emotionally, but I found Lee Jun-ho carried this film. The romantic scenes with Won Jin-ah were forced at best. Won Jin-ah looked like she was a wooden statue & Lee Jun-ho was doing his normal kissy self. Now I know he excels in this area but his romantic partner made it painful to watch. I find it silly that they portray adults as virgins, it just doesn't fit. I am not all about romantic scenes I could take them or leave them but if they take them make them believable. Lee Ki-Woo brought nothing to this film except a wonderful walk. The part could have been played by anyone. On the other hand all the older actors in this film were fantastic & since that was a central part of the film, it really made it what it was again an emotional rollercoaster.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Bon Appetit non!!!
This was a cliche Korean bl, down to the hard lipped kisses. It was unimaged, the plot was sketchy at best. When a shower scene is thrown in , it doesn't move the plot forward in any way & the lack luster kiss scene that ensured was just a big WHY, if your gonna put in a shower scene in any show at least make it awesome. As a watcher, your left wondering why???? It is unfortunate because I enjoyed both of the main actors. I liked the whole fireside episode & you did get a lesson in korean food . To be fair I thought it could have just easily been a series on food & the bl was just tossed in for good measure. Since the real main character was the cooking of food. On the upside the actors were as good as the script allowed them to be, except for the juvenile kissing scenes. Yoon Seo Bin in the series with no real part, seemed a little desperate . Too bad but all series can't be great.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Disappointing
I find too often they use celebrity's with known names rather than trained actors with talent. This series falls prey to no story or substance just a known actor who has only made one film with merit. Please do not cast a show around the celebrity status Mew is a great model maybe even a good commentator as far as I can tell he is not an actor that can carry a series In the last big project with Mew, everyone loved Gulf he was endearing & his chemistry with Mew was on point. Also kissing in a BL is not required especially dead fish kisses If the acting is good enough and it usually is in Korean & Japanese BL's (especially Japanese) you do not need to try physical tactics to engage your audienceVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Finally a Korean Adult BL
Wow, Korea has stepped up the game. Although it starts in high school it quickly becomes an adult BL. I love that it doesn't shy away from skinship, whether it be kissing , or just an open knowledge that these characters are having sex. It is real Finally, it showcases the complexity of not only being gay but how to navigate life with dealing with pretty much abuse from all angles. Not only does it show how different each character deals with abuse, it also shows how you can adjust and overcome just about anything. Lee Soon s character upbeat, fun but emotionally available & willing to accept people for who they are no matter the circumstances. Jang Yeon Woo beautiful to look at but played such a flawed character. Kim Nu Rim the centre figure of the drama , was just beautifully played in every aspect. It really showed how a child is affected by continued abuse . He was such closed off character. This will not be a forgotten Drama. Beautiful written directed with the correct actors able to convey the amazing range of emotion in the drama A must see for sureVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Doona What!!
First you can never hang the whole drama on the fact that you have an Idol. Bae Suzy acting did nothing to enhance the drama . Doona character smoked cigarettes well, did sexy well, had zero chemistry with the lead & displayed the angst of stardom. Other than that unless you are a Bae Suzy fan could have left it. I watched because of the way Vang Se Jong performed in the series. He was awesome & the supporting cast did a great job as well. The ending was anti climatic but I found that the most believable part of the series. It did show well the angst between Doona & Lee Won Joon mostly because of Vang Se Jong's acting ability. Bae Suzy was very pretty & extremely sexy & that to me is where her character began & endedVond je deze recentie nuttig?

IT'S A CRUSH
I binged watched this series, found it very entertaining but it went about 2 episodes too long. The confession in the 1st episode was so awful for the Han Ba Ram, it just set you up to really love the character & learn to hate Sangin. Im Han Tea was just the best of friends who finally realized he loved Han Ba Ram. For a moment you thought that maybe he would be another rejection . Sangin although beautiful to look at was an awesome villian of the series. I liked this drama, loved the band comradery and the singing was also wonderful. I think Korean bl's are getting more and more interesting & providing more real life issues. Making them less about hiding & rejecting your sexuality & more about the love that exists and the acceptanceVond je deze recentie nuttig?
Beautiful dance
I loved this series it was entertaining and well acted except for the deadfish kiss scenes The acting was good enough that the actors conveyed their characters so well there was no need for the kiss scenes especially since Choo young woo apparently had a problem doing a bl and If this is true it just lessens him as an actor, all acting in any genre when recognized above others is an achievement it is his job & when you are representing any love story do honor to the role, if not you cheapen your work and make it personal after all isn't it acting Don't reap the benefit and smear the project just speaks to his character if this is trueVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Not A Remake
I originally didn't watch this drama, because I thought it was a remake or the English Little Women. It is not!! From the beginning you are thrust into the poverty & the disillusionment of the 3 sisters. It also depicts very well how money is the root of all evil. It shows in stark contrast how individuals act when confronted with the option of good over bad. I liked the drama but I found it had way too many limbs on the tree. There was the family story - the grandmother story - the political corruption story - the money story - the murder & they threw in a fake romance between the main characters just I think for sustaining interest. It was an ok watch , only because the acting was grade A & on point. Too bad it had they waited until the last couple of episodes to try and tie in the multiple story linesVond je deze recentie nuttig?

BRUTAL VISERAL HONEST
Maybe I reacted to this drama in such an emotional way because our world is on fire right now. But, even if that was a factor this drama was beyond emotional & as a divorced person I could relate to the brutality that comes from being cheated on, used & ultimately cast aside. This drama correctly depicts that no one person comes out innocent no matter who is the cheater. It showed adults at their absolute worst, funny as per usual the children paid the price & the children were the only voice of reason in the drama. It was surreal to see the women make the meals, keep the house & raise the children mostly on their own again so relatable. I would suggest every married person no matter what gender or sexuality watch this drama it should be watched before anyone reacts to the ending of a marriage. It will stay with me for a very long time, no need to re-watch I won't ever forget it. The actors all did their job & I hope they were paid very well.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Want RomCom
This is a conflict driven romance/drama. Both leads have issues with betrayal. So the series start with the plot pretty much laid out . What makes this so delectable are your main characters. Sung Hoon a true alpha male & Song Ji Eun the cute girl, who needs her big strong man. Sung Hoon can make any heart flutter, he is handsome, his voice is strong & he brings a sensitivity to this character. I love how they brought in the swimming since he came from a professional swimming background. Song Ji Eun played that girl, you know the adorable , the beautiful, but cute, but strong, but needs her man & has so much angst from her upbringing. All in all it is a series I could watch over and over. Whenever a person needs that feel good hit this is a must have. Not to mention the supporting cast was stellar, there wasn't any bad acting that I could see .Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

ALOT ADO
I watched 9 full episodes than I just wikipedia'd it. It started great, then the story just devolved into something that I lost interest in. They had some scenes that didn't even make sense with the story & I especially hate when they do cameos to get extra watches ie: scene with Rowoon as gay love interest then immediately ends both just sucks & why was it relevent to the storyline as a whole. Again, the actors held up their part but the story was conveluted & too jumping back and forth into decades ust didn't do it for meVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Finally Real Life
Episode 1-8 the narrative of Reality never relents . Whatever the sexual orientation this speaks to Love universally . How we get it, keep it, accept it & appreciate it. It is a hard hitting, funny & totally relevant story. Shows the judgements and preconceived notions that people have. It also shows so effectively how each person has a whole lot of hurt & they carry it with them though life, no one isn't marred by social issues and prejudices. This is especially in the LGBTQ+ community. My heart broke when Go Young saw on his lover Noh Young Soo computer his research paper on Homosexuality. You could see in Go Young 's eyes the total bewilderment & then the realization of who this guy truly was. The fact that a person could be such a total hypocrite , what I loved about this series it showed people up for who they were. The series didn't make anything precious & for some it will give a true understanding of what people go through. It was funny, I mean just chuckling at so many of the scenes, especially with his friend Mi Ae. Loved this series!!!! It is a definite watch for sure 3 thumbs upVond je deze recentie nuttig?
