Obra maestra!!!!

Maravillosa historia y entrañables personajes, música bellísima, paisajes y escenarios que envuelven al espectador y que hacen soñar! Todo, todo me ha encantado en este cuento lleno de amor, redención y esperanza. Una historia de amor inolvidable, preciosísima, que conmueve hasta las entrañas! Una pareja principal con una gran química! Un bromance memorable! La Second Couple perfecta, fantástica! Tragedia, alegría, humor, suspense, todas las emociones despierta esta joya de kdrama que es, en mi humilde opinión, una de las grandes series coreanas de los últimos años, creo que ya podría considerarse un clásico con mayúsculas. Si dudáis en verla por la trama de fantasía mitológica no dudéis más. Os animo a no perder ni un segundo. Corred a verla! La recordaréis para siempre como una joya cinematográfica muy querida!

If you've watched S1, then by all means pls watch S2. If you have not seen S1, I would say this season is perhaps more eventful

Hot guys and girls. Diff types. Pretty onscreen and som do have chemistry. Theres slightly less camefa hogging where all scrwentime goes to 1female (biggest issue last season)

Editing needs some serious work. Some scenes were rather short and abrupt. Unaired scenes on Scoop should have been aired imo.

Took more than 6-7 episodes to get more depth into the participants. More than half of the seasons episodes were all on appearance, looks, feeble conversations. Not sure was it contestants took a long time to converse in depth or the editing. Only last few episodes finally felt more aubstance to them. They arw then more relatable.

Overall entertaining. I do hope they can hit it off post-inferno.

É maravilhoso mais é sofrido

Eu amo Spoiler e também odeio lsksksls Meio que assim, eu já sabia que no final o menino ia morre, então eu tinha decidido não chora, mais meu coração não ouviu eu acho, eu me apeguei no muleque e tinha uma esperança que ele estivesse vivo mesmo que tenham falado que ele tinha morrido.
Mais eu chorei feito uma condenada, não tem o que fazer aahhhhh eu assisto mesmo sabendo que vai ser triste, eu agora vou olha Moon lovers não sei o nome direito mais vou pesquisa, sei que o final vai ser triste mais disseram que o drama é bom, então vou olhar.
Mais não é sobre outros dramas, sim sobre esse filme/dorama incrível, pode ter um final trágico mais o filme é realmente bom, eu jurei que ia ser chato mais foi muito bom.
Sobre a atuação, que atores que atores, a menina era muito engraçada me fazia ri junto com ela.
Acho que é a primeira vez que dou um resumo de alguma coisa, pera minha opinião 🥰

Terminando de fala o drama é bom do início ao 4/5 do filme porque o final é triste mais feliz. Eu realmente queria que ela tivesse ficado com ele ahhhhhh não pode ser, fiquei revoltada de novo skksksksks mais eu acho que é isso
Então olhe esse filme, Vocês vão amar assim como eu, ou não, isso é com vocês 💜

Only thing that was bothering me while watching this movie was
there is 26 year old man who look more like 30+ man pretending to be a school kid
34+ shin hye sun look so younger then this Ajusshi looking school bully
Bully look like 34 while shin hye sun look like mid 20s

I can understand that you casted a big name like Shin hye sun so you don't have money for big ML actor
but could have casted a guy that look younger then his Age to fit in a student role
SHIN HYE SUN did amazing here 20/10 for her Acting

Absolutely beautiful

Finally season 2 has come to an end and well I loved every single minute of it!

Having the story of season 2 solely focus on Itsuki and Fuyu and their relationship and their journey to happiness was definitely a step up from the first season. Also loved seeing Itsuki and Fuyu grow as the story progressed, it made me fall in love with them all over again. Of course the lovey dovey moments between Itsuki and Fuyu are absolutely adorable and beautiful as well. I think some favorites are from Ep 4 and Ep 6 (if you know you know)

I also really loved how much the season 2 tackles with the struggles that LGBTQ couples go through, it captured it really well. From family to pressures of society and just wanting to be accepted. It really was so well done. There were many powerful, emotional and heartfelt moments that had me crying, Itsuki and Fuyu deserve all the happiness in the world!

Also I really did love the addition to Yoruem, it took some time to warm up to her at first but I really did love seeing her around and her being Fuyu's rival of sorts and just how she was important to Itsuki. Also the other supporting cast members were great but the outstanding ones are Tsuki and Kou! Both are absolute MVPs for supporting Itsuki and Fuyu to the very end!

Yuuka and Yurika once again are absolutely adorable, their chemistry is just absolutely perfect and I can't ever imagine anyone else as Itsuki and Fuyu! They are ItsuFuyu!

Also once again the music for the show is a 10/10! The ost is absolutely beautiful as always and I loved the new theme song by imase and the ending song by Yurika was just perfect since it was a song about Itsuki and Fuyu and their relationship and love for each other!

But if I did have to nitpick about something it would definitely be the pacing. You can definitely tell there is a pacing issue with this season as it does try to tackle too much at times. It is like they wrote season 2 with hour long eps in mind but in the end they didn't get the hour long eps so they had to cram in many things at once.

But even so I still absolutely loved season 2 and just this show in general. I am so glad I found this show and fell in love with its characters and story. It has become one of my favorite shows ever, I just love everything about it and I never wanted it to end.

I really do highly recommend it, especially if you are a GL fan and love emotional heartfelt storytelling with individual character development at its center stage. And ofc if you are a fan of the series it is a mandatory watch!

A little bit of romance, comedy, military, hospital, bromance and drama. Some people did not like it but for me it entertained me allot. I like how they don't show the cliff hanger on the end of an episode but instead surprises you in the next episode. Of course, there are some scenes that are blah but it wasn't whole lot.
The second lead romance, you'd think was repetitive, but if you think about how a "soldier's honor" is... it does put allot of weight on the "right decision" and the angst of relationship.

The 16 episodes is just right and I am glad they did continue the story after the volunteering because it wasn't a long term deal so life has to go on.

Plus factor is that Song Joong Ki, is just eye candy and he looked really cool in his army uniform and doing all those action stuff (kinda like Healer).

Love Alarm - worth watching?

I did not see this drama in 2019. When I noticed it on Netflix in April 2021 and that it had only 8 episodes, that made me motivated enough because it means I could probably watch the whole thing in 2 days. Not to mention that I have this great interest in teenage love dramas. I’ve already seen Kim So Hyun in other dramas, including River Where The Moon Rises, which was still ongoing. I also saw Song Kang in Navillera, also still ongoing. So I thought, this drama must be a good one since I like both of their acting.

I read both good and bad reviews about this drama, but never mind, I’ll just watch it anyway. So in the first episode we are introduced to this cool phone application called Love Alarm, where you get notified if someone within a 10-meter radius likes you. Then we get to know three students, Kim Jojo, Hwang Sun-Oh and Lee Hye-Yeong who goes to the same school, and as you could probably guess, would get caught in a love triangle.

There were so many questions in my mind about the three of them. Jojo seems to have gone through a traumatic childhood, which I never understood exactly, until I got the answer in episode 6 of Season 2. Hye-Yeong as we know is childhood buddy of Sun-Oh, the son of a wealthy politician and beautiful actress. We then understand that Sun-Oh has a dysfunctional family, with self-centered parents who can only care about their public image.

Then we get to know that Hye Yeong’s mother works in their mansion, more like a head housekeeper, and so basically they live in the same house, but different quarters, but not much do we know about the family background (until Season 2)

I have seen some Song Kang’s temper tantrums as Chae-rok in Navillera, where he still remains to be a good boy, but the character Sun-oh in this drama was so unbearable to me. Sun-Oh was a rich, good-looking guy but he was also arrogant, conceited and somewhat bossy, as if the world revolves around him. He was annoyed that Hey-Yeong did not pick him up at the airport when he returned from the US. He also didn’t approve Hye-Yeong working part-time in a restaurant, because he wants Hye-Yeong to spend more time with him.

What I found also really annoying was he even stalked and kissed Jojo, whom he barely knew, and he already knew that she was Hye-Yeong's object of affection. How could you do this to your very best friend? But then again, I thought, this is a teenage romance drama. You do all sorts of stupid stuff when you were young and immature, and this was part of growing up. So I thought this would be the core of the story, a love triangle among Jojo, Sun-Oh and Hye-Yeong.

The script was a bit disappointing though, and sometimes confusing. We keep on seeing the same flashbacks of Jojo’s childhood, but as each episode continues, we still don’t get a grip on what was going on. Jojo’s cousin, Gul-mi (another annoying character) kept on mentioning about what happened in Jeju with her parents, and even threatened to tell people about it. Still we never understood what happened, and surprisingly, I was not that curious.

Anyway, Love Alarm showed the usual ingredients for teenage drama: love triangles, unrequited love, school bullying, family matters, and the ups and downs of friendship. This was illustrated using the usual K-drama formula, but there were more serious issues on the dark side which were touched briefly, such as school bullying, homosexuality (or more likely gay bullying), suicide (and mass suicide), murder and data privacy.

So how would I rate this drama? I think the acting was superb, but the script needed more substance. I don’t even know what it is, but it seemed like it could be done better. I must say I do like the soundtrack songs (some were in English) and might google to find them after this.

Can you imagine if this series had more duration than it was? Gosh, it would be perfect and might become my most favorite bl series of this year.

With this short duration, this show perfectly lifted my mood of korean bl series for the very first time in 2022. I haven’t felt this great since Bad Buddy ended in January.

From my perspective, all of actors really did their job flawlessly good. Even their side characters were beyond than mediocre.

I didn’t expect much of this series on pilot episode, I even thinking to dropped this series early. But the story look right on more interesting than I expected.

However, there are some things that bugged me and affected me to gave this series only for this rate:

First, I really want to see the connection between his sister (Si Yeong) and his friend (Yun Jeong). Second, Is there any story between Ba Woo and Yun Jeong?. And last, I really wish that they solved their last argument more intense than it was. It really feel easy to me and I believe that conflict was more hurtful than it looks.

I can not write big paras , but i realllyyyyyy wanted to try for this one.
I don't know what I was feeling before I started this drama, but I am glad I watched it, it didn't disappoint me EVEN a single percent , some may say it's cliche and some may point out the age gap between the leads (dk y does it even matter till the chemistry is good)but it really doesn't matter. Basically when I watch a drama , not only a good, happy character development journey is expected but a satisfying ending too and I got it so why won't I like it... If you are thinking about giving it a try... I'll say go ahead, I don't think you would regret watching .
P.s the main male lead is honestly sooooooo cute.

Some cute chemistry and a straightforward short story

What strikes you as soon as you start watching is the sizzling chemistry between the two men. The show is very straightforward about its purpose: showing how the two boys who have been friends for a very long time become overwhelmed with feelings and desire for each other.

The casting is perfect, and both the leads have given a wonderful performance. Han Gi Chan shines as Tae Joo with his charming persona. The style of the drama is like other kdramas, aesthetics are great and the colour palette just right.

UPDATE: I somehow found the last two episodes kind of cringey, their acting seemed to lack as they were forced to show more emotions. The kiss wasn't necessary if it wasn't going to be convincing... they could have just added an implicated kiss or a hug.

Either ways, fans of BL will definitely enjoy this short web drama. Well worth 80 minutes of your time!

Same Plot as Chinese version

This show is so similar to like 5 other shows. Obviously it almost exactly follows the Chinese adaptation that came first with a few changes.

The plot and story contents is exactly like Itazura na Kiss (Japanese), Playful kiss (Korean), Love at first kiss (Taiwanese movie), Kiss me (Thai).
Honestly I get these shows so confused in my brain because they are all the same and quite predictable. This makes it harder to enjoy if you've seen any of the others.

Casting wise I like the actors and I think they do a good job in their roles. I mean I like Dew and Prim a lot. Dew seems to play similar roles of being more quite and reserved so this role is great for him.
I like that supporting couple has more screen time than in other shows/movies rather than only focusing only on the Main couple which can get a bit boring.

Prim's wig is freaking atrocious like bro please at least give her a visible part to make it look somewhat real.

Some of the plot is kinda weird like how is Dew a top athlete and also going to be the school mascot?

I will wait to see if anything in this show will stand out from the rest.

Got hooked on the show and binged it in a couple days. Although I don't regret watching it, the show was mediocre at best and the only reason I kept watching was because of the main couple's chemistry and cuteness. The show tried to mix a bunch of different genres together and did each one rather poorly, except for the romance. The huge plot twist that came halfway through the show really made me reconsider my decision to watch the show as I thought it was disgusting and frightening how they romanticized stalking and forced marriage. I just ignored that one part in order to continue the show and it definitely was a terrible addition to the plot that they honestly could have just left out. The kisses and cuteness of the main leads were the only things I truly enjoyed in this show and it made the series worth watching. Acting was pretty poor and none of the actors conveyed their emotions clearly to the audience. I was left confused during multiple parts of the show and I was frequently left cringing at the poor character portrayal and weak storyline. The antagonist of the show did a good job of making me hate his guts but the second time he came back I was also left thinking ????? The show had a good amount of humor which I enjoyed as well but its drama aspects were just poorly done. I may consider rewatching the cute, fluffy, romantic parts as they were the only scenes the actors truly did well on. The guy is cute so you'll at least have some eye candy to get you through the dumb parts of the series.

This drama was indeed healing. It was slow paced but it didn't feel draggy at all so I did not mind it. It took me almost a year to finish this drama but overall I really enjoyed it.
The characters were portrayed as realistic and mature and I really liked how there were no misunderstandings between the main leads and no cringey jealousy scenes. I also really liked Im Hui (Eun Seob's little sister) as she was pretty funny but loved her brother very much.
The aesthetics of this drama were so pretty and it made me want to live in a countryside in a village like this and to have a club devoted to books as well. :3
