WOW
Ok so first this show took FOREVER to be Eng subbed but once it was I went straight for it. The teaser was intense so it's obvious the movie itself would be too. If you're not into intense sexual content and basically rape this IS NOT the show for you. Believe it or not it had a relatively good storyline/plot. The actors really drew me in throughout the whole movie and I'm not disappointed in any area. I gave it a high rating because it deserves it. The ending alone was satisfying and I definitely recommend because it deals with real life issues such as suicide and kinda shows how you can find love in such rare places.Was this review helpful to you?
UHHHH
Ok, so in all honesty I have no idea how I finished this show. It was a struggle, no lie! Watching it on LineTV there's a few spots in each episode that aren't subbed, but I assure you it's not enough to miss out on anything. Moving on... I gave it a shot since most of the cast were new actors and my ratings isn't caused by their acting, but by the awful storyline. The plot was a hot mess! I mean scattered and smothered all over the place. I legit skipped a good portion and I know for a fact I didn't miss much. The ONLY thing that helped me get by were the sex scenes(no shame)and they were few and far between. The actors were attractive af but that only gets you so far. I wish them all luck in their acting careers but I gotta say....My re-watch value is ZERO but I might consider recommending to my enemy.Was this review helpful to you?
Averagely Above Average
Idk how to describe this but somehow it was an average series with a twist. It wasn't too cliché or basic and I didn't get bored. It did kinda get stretched out a bit but nothing to steer me away. It's a simple show, but nothing you should dismiss. I wanted to smack Jin a few times, but what's a drama without some emotion? lol I think all the cast has potential to succeed and this show was a great start! It's pretty underrated but please give it a watch. I'd recommend to anyone new to BL as this isn't too cheesy or dramatic with pretty decent visuals. There's one ship I wanted to set sail but it failed which is ok (I guess).Enjoy...

Wanting More
This is a good drama for a beginner BL fan or someone who likes light romance. I held on through the lengthy times it was postponed (due to covid) and I'm kinda glad I did. These 2 have really good chemistry together so it makes sense they were paired to do another series. Yes it's short and YES there's a lot more that could've been done so it's no surprise I enjoyed their acting more than the plot itself lol It gets a little shaky for me with how slow paced it was but there's cuteness all around and PLENTY OF VISUALS!!! I hope to see them together in more series<3Was this review helpful to you?
Flop
First I gotta say after watching the first season I had no idea what they could do in a S2 to redeem anything and I didn't get much of an answer from the MC here. I LOVED all the side couples (can't pick a fav honestly) but Bank and Golf had me in a constant state of "ugh" when they crossed my screen. I don't see much chemistry between them and if that's not enough the whole "dying" plot doesn't do much for me. I legit would've smacked EVERYONE involved. Family, friend, dog etc. Would've caught my wrath for such a stunt. As that's just my personality, I can't say everyone would think like me. Anyway, I won't be recommending and I won't be rewatching. I love Fluke as an actor and some of the cast were familiar faces but I can't let this slide with a positive review....Was this review helpful to you?
Gave Higher Rating
First, I'm gonna say I gave this a higher rating than MDL recommended in my overall.Anyway, are you looking for something never before seen? TURN BACK! Are you looking for something with a good story? YOU'RE LOST! Do you enjoy repetitiveness? LOOK NO FURTHER!
It didn't take long before I was forcing myself to get through some of these eps. I don't like to drop series, so I stuck it out but jeez I kinda wasted my time. I really think Thai drama's have kinda run out of BL content cause SO MANY drama's are the same now days. I've seen quite a few involving food, spiteful girls and multiple couples lol Speaking of multiple couples... they threw their stories together so randomly/quickly no one really got any screen time(I even feel like even though there was 13 eps the MC couples relationship was rushed too). Spiteful girls are a staple in the Thai BL industry at this point but ugh this girl really got on my nerves with her crying lmao. LukChup was pretty annoying as well, he was like one of those characters who can't help but cry so unfortunately, I won't recommend; mostly cause nothing stuck out to me with this series

Team Alex
So like most of us, I'm here cause I fell in love with Pearl's spunky personality and beauty from the prequel Gameboys. She brings all the spice here as well and I loved it! I had an issue with the run around the story created but that's legit due to my own personal beliefs and feelings on relationships. Visuals all around and I think even straight people could learn something/enjoy this series lol I think the acting was better than the story itself but I'm glad the story wasn't anywhere near as basic as I had prepared myself for. This is definitely worth the watch and the ending was so much better than I expected. Enjoy...Was this review helpful to you?
YAASSSSS
Ok so first I'm gonna say this was so much better than I expected. Idk what I was looking for but I found I and more! If you want something fluffy and sweet? You came to the wrong place. You want something full of deceit, witchcraft and sex? LOOK NO FURTHER!Visuals were amazing and Jennifer is the villain you're gonna love to hate. Story was something I've never seen in a BL with a mix of horror and lust. The ending was too refreshing and I need a Season 2 like...yesterday! Lol
It was short but worth the watch

ON POINT
I started this drama with a 8.5 and things just got better and better. I became obsessed with Lee Dong Wook with his performance in Goblin and dear God I wasn't let down here either! This drama deserves every bit of high praise possible and for good reason. You're gonna come across characters you love to hate, and when the plot gets thick af, it still holds it's perfect structure. This isn't your typical supernatural romance AT ALL. And there isn't just one couple you'll become obsessed with. Everything from costumes to backstories were flawless. There's a lot of cuteness considering it's part of the main plot but luckily not enough to over power anything. I highly recommend if you're a fan of any member of the cast, enjoy romance, history and/or supernatural.THAT ENDING HAD ME SCREAMING!!!!

Scared my cat
OMG I'm still fan girl screaming so hard! OffGun are just too perfect and this movie proves it. They're chemistry was strong in ToL but somehow they made it stronger this time. I definitely got emotional to the point I was worried I was gonna cry or throw up lol Seeing these two off and on screen is a blessing in itself and I'm so glad someone decided there was room for more ToL. Obviously, I don't think anyone who's a fan of these talented guys will be disappointed. The ONLY reason I don't give it a 10/10 is cause I felt it was repeating the prequel(even if only for a moment). Enjoy...Was this review helpful to you?
Highly Recommend
Looking for something cute and fluffy? TURN BACK! Looking for something that screams 'real life'? LOOK NO FURTHER!In true S2 fashion, this season focuses on the side couple. And I'm living for it! Everything about it was emotional. We all know the entertainment industry is cut throat, but CIWYW highlights the dark secrets everyone tries/is forced to hide, for the sake of their reputation and careers. Everyone deserves a friend like Marco for when you're feeling darkness like Bas. I wish it wasn't so short and there's a bit of room for S3, but I'm legit satisfied af with this ending. I wouldn't recommend to a newbie to BL, unless you want them to see the negatives of it all but I'd definitely put it on your PTWL.
I hope everyone learns something from this series whether it be 'Don't be scared to love who YOU want' or 'Talk to someone when you're in a bad state of mind and/or body'.

Favourite
So first, as someone who's seen a LOT of BL this is definitely my favourite Taiwanese BL. There was great chemistry between the MCs and there were visuals all around (obvious bonus). It may seem like the story will be a bit basic at first but I assure you it's all worth it! I'd definitely recommend to someone just starting into BL as it's sweet and cheesy with enough cute romance it'll make you blush lol Only downfall is the episodes aren't longer...I need unlimited seasons! Good news is it seems there's more to come (which proves it's good enough).Enjoy...

Love by Chance Season 2: A Chance to Love
7 people found this review helpful
So Uhhh
I gotta say...wow. It's not a good wow either. S1 was by far the best and for a VARIETY of reasons. If you're looking for something that follows the first season well and makes sense you are in the wrong place lol If you're familiar with S1, you'll already know Saint and that he isn't in S2. For the love of God I'd rather them have not made a S2 if the story was gonna be changed so much it became an inside out upside down hot mess like this. Everything worked out well for the most part but honestly I stuck it out as long as I did only for KlaTechno. The story would've been just fine(even without my baby Saint) had they just kept the storyline of TinCan in S1. Seems there's a S3 so let's just pray nothing else falls flat.Was this review helpful to you?
Displeased
Okay so for starters, keep in mind I was already halfway in this series when I realized it's aka as "Stalker". lolI didn't hate this series but I definitely don't think it deserves half the praise it's receiving. It was cringe fuel at it's finest. The support cast were funny and even tho I wish some of them got more screen time you'll quickly see what I mean when I say they are extra af. Way too invested and just clear over the top acting for the scenes. But I'm going to let that slide cause it's clear they're new actors and like I said, they were funny.
Moving on,** IT'S NEVER OK TO STALK SOMEONE**
This I can't stress enough that it was only finished because what was good was really good. This took getting your crushes attention to a whole new level! It was meant to be quirky and cute I know, but I can't get past some parts...most importantly the box(s) dedicated to TRASH that belonged to the MC.
The relationship(s) in general moved very quickly which isn't really a problem but other than that some of the episodes made no progress in the storyline itself.
Can't see myself recommending to anyone but,
Enjoy...

Destiny!
If you're new to K-Drama's this will fit right up your alley. This drama SCREAMS K-Drama lol I looked forward to every episode but never wanted it to end. The cheesiness will make you lactose intolerant for sure, but it's totally worth it. The romance was portrayed perfectly, with just the right balance of 'catch me as I trip and fall' and 'you're my destiny!'. lol The red thread reference is a story I've seen before, but can't get enough of. The fantasy part is a little basic but nothing too serious. All the couples I was head over heels for (even the blossoming ones).Visuals all around and the ending doesn't get much better!
Jae Jin is best boy!
