Tom and Jerry to another level
guys, let me start with how those series start good, got me excited then dissapoint me either halfway thro the show or in the end, did we need 12 eps? no, this could be great with 6-7 eps max.i enjoyed ep 1-ep4, then it started to drag from ep 5 to the end so i start to skip bits, a lot of scenes feel repetitive or filler scenes, and while im glad that Minato didnt immediately start dating Shin as he was underage, but the problem should be solved when he become legal right? the guy become legal while the other guy still playing hide and seek game, while in the first eps i felt he is adorable but later on it become really childish. i also question was he eventually going to accept Shin if his sensei didnt reject him/look disinterested to him? because it didnt seem like it, we can see he find Shin appealing physically since ep 1 but i feel that he doesnt really love him and that he just eventually gave up to him.
it was also annoying how it took forever before he was able to confront his sensei about the past, it took ages there..
while Shin was so pushy, usually i give a pass if its light, but he was kinda really pushy and it kept happening so frequently, he obviously is not the rapy type of person but a no is not enough to stop him, you need to end up pushing him for him to think "ok thats enough for today"
i mean should we give him a pass because he is young? just think of it, if the older guy was the one doing that everyone will be screaming about him taking advantage of a young boy, but since when its ok for young guys to be crossing the line like that?
im not talking about him wanting to court him but about him getting in his personal space, kissing his neck and feeling him up until Minato had to push him hard enough.. boy thats sexual harassment leaning so much to sexual assault as touching was involved, so..
of course im not saying all their moments are problematic ,there is a lot of sweet moments, i like how he take care of Minato when he is sick ,how he cook for him etc but this was dragged too much,i will give s2 a chance as well

so raw ,so touching!!!
guys i was about to check it out and watch one or two eps but ended up bing watching the whole show so im awake at almost 4am lmaoeverything about this serie is so raw and i loved it, the sad moments, the happy moments, the steamy scenes of the MLS full of love and feelings ,the trauma and issues, the guilt and hope, everything.
obviously Ritsu loved Masumi but it was hard for him at that time to be commited to one person and was used to sleeping around, only realised what he missed when Masumi left, he terribly hurted him and caused him trauma but im glad when i see someone who did wrong did apologize and looked so sincery guilty about their mistakes
the ending also gave hope and maybe im the only one who loved it, its open ending leaning so much more to a happy end, i think they didnt directly show a happy end because it may look unrealistic, but the characters gave hopeful messages, the unexplainable things too are a big hint that its happy, the sudden rain ,sudden fire and how the bottle didnt fall etc and it helped the characters to lessen their struggles , im telling you that boy have superpower and stopped the disaster from happening lol
i know at some point im going to rewatch this again, i highly recommend this ^^

started good, ended not good
my comment is going to sound harsh, i feel like i wasted my time on this sorry not sorryand im just glad it ended, gmmtv need to work on who to hire for script writers
i'am looking forward to their story in ourskyy2? no , most of ourskyy2 stories have been bad anyway, if you are going there for fanservice good ,just dont expect to see a good plot, and i dont really like wasting my time
going back about this serie, cher look like a red flag when he is in a relationship, is he going to think of breaking up or dissapear everytime there is a problem? while gun is a green flag he is all about communication and fixing any issue going on, sorry but gun is mature while cher is so immature, ghosting someone you love dearly and breaking their heart, then suddenly appearing again he is lucky gun forgave him so easily, and i understand why he didnt look after him when he left, he wanted him to be comfortable and to be happy, how much will you keep running after your partner who keep brushing you off? cher need character development!!
now that i completed the show, not gonna lie the start of the show got me hooked, the first episodes, but the latest eps have been not good it turned me off, the cute moments of them are good but i was not distracted about how bad the plot become, they introduced a heavy and dark story but it was not resolved, they forgot half of the plot or what? what was frustrating is it has been 12 eps there was plenty of time to resolve that issue but they just filled it with scenes that were not necessary, ,they wasted a lot of time showing cher taking a step back ,then step forward then again on repeat but ignored the real issues , they keep creating some unecessary drama that made me dislike the ML's character instead. if you are not going to properly resolve the dark story then better to just not include it, dont leave serious issues unsolved
and suddenly gun's mom is ok with their relationship.. i guess she realised its the last ep so she needed to accept them being together
its amazing how i loved cher's character a lot at the start of the show but ended up disliking his character later, whats good about the first eps is that it make you smile and its stress relief, it made me giggle a lot at that time , i guess thats why i did put up with it until the end, this should have ended in 8 eps not more
if i think of rewatching this show i will only rewatch the first few eps and stop there id save myself from a headache

one of my favorite series
this is one of my favorite series so far, i was hooked, i bing watched this in 2 days, and its only because i started it so late so that it was impossible to continue it at that time, then next day the first thing i did is watch it, thought to watch 2-3 eps but i ended up watching the whole show and skipped my nap time lolfirst i think this serie deserve at least 8 rating because its goood, i think its a bit unfair that its 7 something
i think its impossible to write this review without spoilers as i want to mention what i loved and what few disadvantages as well, because every serie (no matter how good it is) there is always good things and few negative points too
lets start with the disadvantages
1- the last 2 eps, if it was not for the last 2 eps i was about to rate this 10/10 but changed it to 9/10, because the drama that they included in the end was a bit unecessary
2-they become couple only in the last ep and that was frustrating, thats why i think we need a special ep or a s2 ,because while we saw their struggles before they become a couple, i wanted to see their struggles as a couple and their life as a couple too, their time being finally together felt too short
3-one crying scene in the latest ep felt a bit over acted but it wasnt a big deal anyway
4- i didnt like the second couple
now lets go to the good things about this serie which are a lot!!!
1- the plot, so goooood, so special, so different, so creative!!! what made me hooked since the start is the plot..i know some people found the first 3 eps a bit boring because the pace of the plot start to pick up at ep 4 ,but i didnt even mind, as since ep 1 i got hooked ,i like the conversations going on and the humor, the plot is so unique
2- the chemistry of the MLs is so gooooood, the actor amber is so handsome fr
3- the music!! it captivated me since ep 1 ,its so well done fr
4-in this show they are talking about real life issues ,which is really so interesting, i felt so bad for amber and wanted to hug him
5- i loved the friendship of the people there, that we dont need an evil girl, she as a friend helped her friends to be together instead of being selfish. she didnt think only of herself and she didnt cross the boundaries, she showed real concern and tried to help her own way, and i love how she didnt keep secret from her bestfriend.
6- do i see myself rewatching this? yes of course, if you are hesitating i do really recommend this to you, this is very well done and so much better than many bl series that are currently airing, im just glad i accidently found this

im in love with this season 2
i think this is the first time that i watch a serie and i end up liking s2 so much more than s1. i didnt like s1 so thats why i didnt plan to watch this season but thankfully at some point i changed my mind and im sooooooooo glad.this season is great, i think we got to see more of their acting (their acting is so good) ,the plot is so entertaining and hira is so hilarious, he is so obsessed its so unhealthy but he is so funny as well, i laughed many times because of "suspicious kun" lol but was screaming "please you need therapy" in the same time. obvious both the leads have their own issues and i think their issues kinda match with each others flaws so they keep getting attracted to each others
i just hope hira learn to love himself

not bad but also not great
honestly its not bad , i did enjoy watching the first until middle eps etc, it was the last eps that i started to feel really bored and was forcing myself to complete it, the thing is yeah i dont drink but that was not the issue, its that when the main character is always looking drunk like an alchoolic person i was questioning if the serie will be only about them getting drunk all the time, i mean yeah the name of this serie is All the Liquors but they could have added scenes that can make people excited to watch? no? .also whats wrong if some people dont like to drink? or some restaurants dont sell alchool, why in the end he had to "sell alchool and like it" like it should be like that? its fine if he likes it, it should also be fine if he doesnt like it. those society standards are not cool by the way
what i liked the most is them showing different dishes and the show will make you feel hungry, but yeah at some point it felt that the scenes are so repetitive, getting drunk and eating ( x 1000 times) i think thats why people are saying that its boring, because there is nothing more than that they didnt show different scenes to make the show exciting.
i also want to say both actors are really good looking but the acting is also not that great, Han Ji Yu is already cute he doesnt need to force it by expression exagerations etc and i appreciate we got 2-3 kiss scenes in the end but it was awkward asf
i gave this serie 8 stars because i enjoyed first and middle eps

i hate/love this serie
i have a hate love feelings toward this serie, do i see myself rewatching it? hell nolet me say the end did fuck it up, no offense.
id start about what i loved, and later on mention what i hated
i loved the chemistry the most, both couples have great chemistry , my favorite is Lu Zhi Gang i dont know why but i found him adorable and hot in the same time, i loved Xiang Hao Ting too when he is nice and not mean to Yu Xi Gu
i didnt like Sun Bo Xiang, i understand he is young so thats why he is childish but he was acting so crazy at some moments i was like "wth"
now about how this show ended, Yu Xi Gu suffered his whole life not to have a tragic ending like that, like whats the message that they wanted to deliver? he worked his ass off to later on die at young age?
i want to say while i usually avoid watching sad endings, there is times when i watch them mostly when i can feel from the plot that it could be sad and from the vibe too you can sense the possibility of it having a sad ending so at that time you feel prepared with that, but guess what with this one? when the main characters have no issues with each others they just suddenly added a sad ending which felt out of place? suddenly he got a car accident because of salt? while car accidents happen in real life yeah but in a serie it felts that they just added it for the sake of making a sad end, at this point i accept if one of them decided to leave for some issues or relationship problem instead of this bs.. we didnt even see the car accident or him getting hit it felt weird, then how it ended? Xiang Hao Ting being depressed all the ep and not being able to move on with his life? wth? why not after sometime make him remember his lover and appreciate their precious memories with a smile instead of it being the opposite and making the whole ep so depressive, looks like he is living miserable for his whole life?
the thing is that the last impression of a serie is as important as the first impression, the first impression is what make you decide to watch a serie or not , while the last impression is what your review is going to be about because it leaves a huge impression of how you feel about a serie

great plot that many bl series do lack
im glad i watched this , i didnt watch the movie, i dont know but people said its better to watch this season instead as its the same as the movie ,just more detailed.and honestly? i bing watched the season 2 in one day which is something i rarely do, so i did enjoy it a lot.
another thing, i rarely enjoy s1 and s2 of a show because i usually find s2 lacking but guess what? not with this one.
the writers of this serie are talented,creative and good at making content, if they make more bls i do want to watch.
even the issues that cai and gav have do make a lot of sense, not some nonsense that i see in some other bls (silly problems)
,so no ,even the issues look real and you can see the point of view of both of them and it show healthy relationships too, no consent issues going on.
the second couple terrence and wesley are so damn cute and hot, i find myself wanting to see more of them
this show could be a little bit cheesy, cringy ,esp when the words baby are so overly used but its a great show with a great plot and great acting, the ost too its perfect,what more to ask?
so , if you didnt watch this serie yet, i highly recommend it to you

the second couple *sigh*
how to say this, this serie gave me a lot of mixed feelings, it has a good main couple but the second couple are a mess, and when i say a mess its really a disasterfirst let me start with the plot, the plot is so so meh ,so in order to get a crazy bl shipper girl the main couple pretended to be a thing which is so so cringy, eventually i got interested in their chemistry because its amazing and i loved how close they were to each others, even tho there is few dialogue shared between them that is a bit off and show the toxic "mindset". for exemple "im a man how can someone take advantage of me",and "if i was a girl i will say this is sexual harassement" so a guy cant be taken advantage off or be sexualily harassed? what nonsense is this, but overall the main couple had a healthy relationship and its consensual i loved them so much they are the one who lifted the serie tbh
the story of the second couple? i will just say "just skip it"seriously that young brother should be in jail and he needs a psychiarist too, look lets not dismiss rape!!!!! because he fully raped his step brother and looking so proud and happy about it then it turned out that he also filmed it and showed his father, to protect him ? you can say that in jail because i dont believe the bs thrown there,i just dont get how they ended up together ,their whole story is so problematic and the red flags are everywhere there.

where is justice?
okay, Lhong is dealing with issues and all that but does that excuse what he did? it doesnt change the fact that he is a criminal and i dont like how criminals in those shows get away with their crimes and you even see them trying to justify those crimes, how do you justify rape and attempt of murder too?he sent people to rape tar and he also tried to kill type and somehow he is not in jail? what is that bs? whats his punishment? that he is no longer a friend of tharn? how is that justice? people break up and friendships get broken frequently thats life but thats not justice for rape , and you even see tharn's bro in s1 forgiving him and saying that he has been harsh on himself and i was like what? if someone played with your sibling that way and made their life like hell you forgive them and forget the fact that he sent people to rape someone else too? so much unrealistic things happening and the one who made the show focused on making lhong look like a victim, you are no longer a victim when you commit such crimes. its rather frustrating you see tar struggling ,being haunted by what was done to him yet he dont get the justice that he deserves

interesting but i didnt feel attached to the characters
first i want to mention that the games were really cool and smart idea as well but i was only interested in the first until middle eps, i did lost interest in the last eps. how to explain this? it started really good but it become a mess in my opinion, so i didnt like were the show is going, another thing is that im really not into unrealistic things too.another thing is that, for me to really love a show it usually happens when i love the characters but i really didnt feel attached to them at all, so i was just watching for the games thats it. it lacks that aspect of getting the viewer attached to the characters. the friends who died in ep 3? they died too much early in the show and its such a waste because they could have showed more about their characters or it could bring more plotwist. so i was not attached to them that much to feel sad.

had potential but it was wasted
the reason why i started watching is because of the high rating in MDL, i should have known to not trust the rating...this serie look like its made in 2000 not in 2022, it feels old and full of clichey, now not gonna lie i liked the first few eps 1-2 , even tho i keep skipping unecessary scenes, later on in the middle it become nonsense, its like going non stop in a circle, i heard it get better in the latest eps but at this point im not in the mood to watch..
if you are looking for something light with barely any plot then go on, you will probably like it, but if you want a plot then nah.
in the first eps it kinda of worked out but barely any plot for how long, and im sorry but i think the character Noey carried the whole show,if it wasnt for him id drop this since ep 1, i didnt care about all side characters and i didnt care about Thi too, i only liked Noey because his character is interesting , Thi's character is so ... i cant with a ML character who is always in life crisis, always into panic mood all the time, i find the too much over exaggerations and overreactions a turn off, he is probably the reason of why im dropping this, the other reason is the plot...

one of the best kdramas
this is one of the best kdramas for real, the urge to bing watch was high, it has been ages since i have done any review but i thought a show like this needs reviews, first the story is really interesting it kept me excited to check what will happen in the next eps, the only thing id say i was not interested in is the romance part, but it does make sense why its included ,because love is the reason why things took different path so it had to be included for certain things about the plot , id not say more to avoid spoilersi also loved the ending and found it interesting, tbh i think this role really suit Park Shin Hye very well, it feels like the show is made for her and this is her best drama

a good revenge story
having a second chance to change your path and your life choices, and for the better. how amazing it will be if we all can do that right? with realistic situations,friends like Soo Min do exist in real life and it can be less severe but still..while yes they shoudnt be called a friend but you know there is those type of people who are close to you pretending that they care about you but they are just jealous and wanting to drain your happiness, the plot is interesting, and i loved the chemistry btw the mls, the only thing i disliked is the appearance of O Yu Ra, her character was not only so annoying but the acting was poor and her appearance made the show wilder (about the events) but thankfully its just the few last eps, in general i loved itWas this review helpful to you?
yawn
lets be honest, only the first 1-2 eps are good then the 2x speed started, then half skip half watch started and i missed nothing , the mls chemistry it just look like bromance, then there is this weak plot, im so sorry but our dinning table is so so much better than this.. here i see no flavor, its boring, stupid ridiculious misunderstandings, many filler scenes, 12 eps of what? this should be 4 eps max, why making the show long for no reason?just dont waste your time, both the plot and chemistry are weak, i dont recommend
