Early reborn drama - short but sweet

A wife and mother wants a divorce from her husband. She is reborn and realises that he wasn't what she thought and helps fight those who want to destroy their marriage.

This is 2022 so you can see the dramas have gotten longer and more repetitive. What I like is that this is short and sweet relying on flashbacks . That can also be a bit confusing

I'd say it's a watch that you forget about but not a bad way to spend 50 minutes . The kid is cute

Enjoy!

The treasure is in the relationship


I liked this. So many BLs show us the sexual tension (Where your eyes linger), gay awakening (Hidamari ga Kikoeru) or getting together (too many to mention) that we never actually see them dating. Well this was a slice of them dating and whilst it wasn't long enough to score perfect scores it was lovely to see them relaxed in the relationship without the anxiety and stress we saw before.

Interesting that a lot of people didn't rate this highly. The whole point for me is what happened next. Maybe people wanted to see something grand? Not for everyone but for me it worked. And I'm glad they didn't wait months to release this too.

Enjoy !

Sweet toothed drama with cavities towards the end


DISCLAIMER: Apparently episode 12 was leaked so this review is after completing the drama although it was only due to air in 3 days. I watched it on Viki but it's also available on GagaOOlala and WeTV in some regions.

Synopsis:
A story of bar / restaurant owner Bai Ling who is scared of the dentist and then meets his new dentist who is a friend of his sister. The reason for his fear is revealed and their new friendship develops. It's a slow burn initially.

I love Taiwanese dramas and when I heard this was made by the same team as we best love I was excited. It's 12 episodes which is healthy and each are about 30 minutes long. Way better than KBLs. Initially I was impressed by the storyline as it focused on family issues, traumas from childhood, ex loves and I thought I was going to score it 9s and 10s.

The issues are:
a) too many couples, some of whom only really came to life in the last 2 or 3 episodes. It needed more from some for sure.
b) a random family story which again was late in the day and didn't fit in with the rest of the drama
c) it was a slow build up at the beginning and then really rushed at the end

Overall:
It's definitely worth a watch and there are some really cute scenes throughout the drama. It feels a little like Beloved in the house I do where production may have interfered with the production and steered it as opposed to the story. I don't think there is much re-watch value apart from favourite scenes but it could easily have a season 2 or spin off with more from 2 of the other couples.

Enjoy!

Brings Blue Boys and Bad Guy together in a new drama

So I watched Blue Boys, Blue Boys Part 2 and Bad Guy - I'm enjoying Sukfilms except they are too short
Episodes are 8 to 12 minutes each !

They use the same actors which I love. They're giving Strongberry vibes in terms of the quality of the storylines as well.

In this one we have 3 friends and some confusion as to who Dae Young is really into . The plot thickens!

You can watch the first two episodes plus a teaser (episode 0/8 ) on Youtube already

I'll update as we go along.
