Taiwanese BL drama it is! You miss a gem if you miss it as always
I saw few people praising the novel writer Lin Pei Yu whom I did not know much about but recently got to know through this series. I must say the story in itself did not carry a lot of weight but the way it is potrayed, it is addictive and superb for any bl lover.I decided to watch it after getting a short clip on yt which was based on the second lead couple. But as I started to watch the series, I realised I loved both the couples a lotttt.. It felt awesome the way the character development worked around each of the lead characters. Bai Zong Yi was a shy nerd kind of person who completely changed himself for the love of his life. I like how this miracle love worked bcz it felt like both of their lives got ruined at one point, but their love stood up for themselves and everything was placed in right place again.
On the other hand, Fan Zhen Rui, although shown as a member of a gang, did not act anything much like a gangster. He was a flower boy from the beginning, who likes strawberries and sweet cakes. He was never given importance in his life which might have triggered him to not experience the love he found in Zong Yi.
My favourite character was Ai Di. His character is the most matured and entertaining as well as a potential character which the actor drove with brillance. His love, his commitment, his timely mature decisions were everything that macde him lovable by all. Chen Yi was silent and inexpressive, although he adored Ai Di so much we could see that in every scene where he pulled him off from any off the mark activity in the bar. Bt eventually his character also revealed his actual love for Ai Di and how much passionate he was for him. This couple literally made up for all the shortcummings I felt in the drama.
Because I binge-watched the drama, I did not feel the drag ofthe drama but sometimes it felt like I was going off track as it felt fast paced. The age gap was totally neglected and the beginning way of leading into the house of a minor felt a bit unrealistic, but I managed it as not everything we see can be real.
The romance scenes were top notch, although I wanted to see more than just kisses. Obviously the kisses were steamy, and there was off shirt scenes, but mostly they relied on the lip push^^
Over all loved the whole thing, some of it did make me go wild because it was too unrealistic to digest but I managed bcz this is the reason I watch them, which we dont experience irl, we get it here. More to BL romance and dramas. the quote that I want to end my review with is "Keep loving, Love can make miracle happen" Always keep hopes and keep loving.
100% good feeling guaranteed... Only if you are into BL. Take love every<33333

If you want to feel the warmth of a fatherly relation, this is for you!!
9.04.24 03:53First of all, I love the acting of all the cast starting from the kid to Mr. Doo Seok and every other character. They potrayed every character with all their best and it felt nothing less than natural.
I love the fact how that man changed for a small kid to give her a life and dedicate rest of his life towards her. He just proved once more that not every biological father can give dad love to their kids. Her life's tragedy was over ever since she met this guy. He is that guardian we all were required to fill up in our forms other than parents. And I believe he was the guardian angel of her life. It is heart warming how both the brothers gave such warm fatherly love to her.
Although this is acting but I believe there are people in real life who are like them dedicating their entire life for the sake of a budding life. He felt so proud when she called him her father for the first time. Also it is his ill-fate how his life turned around after that but I bawled so hard towards the end. This was damnnn emotional. Loved it.

Love Japanese Love Movies? It is for you
I did not have any idea I was going to watch this movie today. It was at 11:30 pm yesterday I decided to watch it from a recommendation from April Bride(from MDL). Now it is 3:13 am 04.04.24 currently.Being a romance genre lover, I have always been looking for good Japanese love movies or dramas. They are fast paced, extremely good acting, emotional, leaves a message for the viewers. For all these reasons, Japanese movies tops my romantic genre collection.
Now about this movie---
As the name suggests, it is a story of two lovers who were their first love to each other. They were kids when they started to feel love for each other. Again as the plot describes, the male character has a grave disease which gives him an ultimatum to live until age 20. Although we got to guess the ending, but still at our corner of our heart, wanted him to survive. I knew the plot can't be good according to movie production in case he survives, but still the hopes of letting him live more dragged me to feel rollercoaster of emotions alongside Mayu, and all the other characters involved. The father doctor also played a great role. I liked the fact that he allowed her to love the boy even though he was so ill. It shows he was not a heartless person as Takuma thought.
Mayu's emotions and her feelings were indescribable. Her passion for Takuma could make anything possible. We saw the proof. She was playing around but she was capable enough. That's what I couldn't believe when they made the daughter of a doctor so dumb. She was definitely not dumb. She knew what she was upto. Her passion and dedication for her love inspires me to believe in love.
Takuma's feelings although could have been misunderstood at the middle but he also was genuinely in love with her. It's just that his illness sometimes made him doubt about everything. Well it can be possible that his feelings were not described so vividly to make us viewers imagine what we want to, and I would definitely think the positive way. Atleast in movies I can experience the kind of love I could only hope for.
Overall it's a fantastic movie . If you don't like sad endings, maybe you can skip but it isnt something you gonna regret. Give it a try. Happy bingeing!!!

NO This ain't that boring a movie
Well I was never quite in this genre. I have always been on the soft genre side. So people watching this might be a hardcore horror and thriller lover, so it can seem not so interesting for them. But it has enough potential to make you think about life twice. The scary scenes were not too wild but quite decently creepy. And the storyline.. It has a great depth for the viewers to imagine how they would comprehend the not so detailed plot. Many people are complaining why Ae ran's character was involved. I felt it was important to show the character interface of Cheong Seok.Also the plot keeps you engaged and once you miss a spot, you feel missed out and thats when you start that the movie isnt interesting enough. So better to keep keen look at the movie while watching it. And you'll definitely enjoy it..

Unless you are into adult content don't watch or else a life lesson
To start with I must say, the female lead was serious when she said she is no different than the high school girl. She didn't want to do so many things and yet ended up doing them and each of them prove her to be a selfish, gross woman. But here's a catch - She was also craving for a man who would understand what she wants and would accompany her thoughts. This is the reason she could never say she didn't like the teenager boy. Bcz he had given her the feeling of being heard and understood.Although the plot made us look down on her character and made it look legally and morally offensive towards her but as per what we could arrive from the show, she never had a proper friend whom she could rely upon. So she had always wanted her boyfriend to be that friend for her and mess herself up by being indecisive.
The sex#al potrayal was not totally unnecessary as it made the viewers realise the true feelings of the characters but it was too much erotic must say atleast for a teenager boy. Obviously it was shown in purpose to bring realistic picture but still it was too much and f lead made it look cringe sometimes. Still I believe the rumor punishment was enough for her as she had to leave the only job she had found after so much of hustle. Also it made her realise some facts that she had to leave that boy to let him think properly about his future and it is better that it is upto us how we imagine if they will be together later on.
Coming to Fu kun, he was a pretty nice guy according to today's standards. Although getting a chance, he did not step forward towards cheating with her gf. And I personally felt the female lead did not like him from the beginning as she also mentioned sometimes in between that she chose him because he chose her.
That's why I believe we should not go into a relationship if we are not sure if we are actually interested in that person. If something goes wrong, a long relationship might wreck up into pieces silently and the one with actual feelings would sink in desperation. Although it seems pretty easy to move on in shows, but irl it is worse.
