The thing about this show is that starting from the first scene right to the end, there is nothing that can be considered filler content. Nothing is done without reason. You are given a puzzle of a story but the truth is it's not about the answer to the puzzle but about the things you learn getting to it. In a time, where people only want guilty pleasure and happy happy happy, this show gives a voice to so many children who are ignored every day. I'm one such survivor and this story got to me in a way that is hard to explain. Children of Nobody. Can there be a more heartbreaking phrase? The actors made it so you get lost in the fantasy and even root for the villain at times I believe that was the point. That people lose their way. N's story was the saddest and no spoilers but I'm glad finally in a TV show this topic was touched. Honestly just a phenomenal script and acting I wish there were more like this one.

This film is a powerful gut punch for masochists ala --> ME. Jeez. Keep your sinus drops handy because you're going to be over working them. Seriously If you're one of those people who watched History Trapped and went 'not dark enough what sissy crap is this if only it was way way screwed up and sexual' you should watch this! Sadly, I am that person lol

Anyway, jokes aside if you know anything about me, you know by now I'm a sucker for obsessive love that goes beyond the boundaries of morality.

Absolutely one of those films and couples that will be my go to from now on.

Miyazawa Hio is GORGEOUS XD sigh. Now then. Sometimes you just need a soft baby girl to remind you, that the things that 'sound ugly ' or 'strange' are just in our heads. When people look at gay people as though they're 'ugly' its just their own ugliness they reveal.

And how the biggest problem we all have is that when we lie to others, we're really just lying to ourselves. I'm not gay. I dont love you. Every time we do this, we're just making things worse. Because no lie stays hidden forever and no closet is comfortable enough to hide your gay ass for the rest of your life.

That cheating double life will destroy you and everyone around you.

And I just love how fresh that little girl's perspective was, it was like fudge, why didn't I think of that lol I missed her when the movie ended.


But so why not a full ten stars?

Here's the reason.

There was just way too much of courtroom drama, it just didn't suit the tone of the movie that they set. I would have been fine if it was just a few scenes, instead of being the entire second half of the film! It kills the closeness they were showing in the first half, I don't know it just felt wrong. Felt like that lack of bonding in the second half just didn't work.

Don't be turned off by the description, it doesn't do this movie justice. Basically, this is more than 2 hours of extremely hot men standing half nude, and slapping each other's butts, and extremely hot men having bromances that are not only hot but beautiful, and extremely hot men going around being extra and being crazy and also delivering a beautiful, captivating story with a heart. The dialog it's etched in my mind it was so beautiful, especially toward the end. It's funny, with some dark humor, and some touching, emotional moments and the writing is so good! And Suda being extra af is just my happy place lol

This movie started out a bit strange so I was expecting a disaster but in no time the plot kicked in and then just whoa! This is the kind of movie that gets to the bottom of the human psyche, of the mechanics of war, and how riled up armies don't "win" ANYTHING but a false sense of power. Wars happen because we stop seeing the other person as a human being. And when that happens false ideologies are used by cunning, greedy, power-hungry masters to drive the rest into a prison that only looks like freedom. War casualties are not power, dead bodies are not strength, and torn nations are not trophies. It's just a few people at the top using these cruelties to get what they want. That's the message of this film. Yes, it's a tragedy. Yes, the dark humor is always grotesquely funny because humanity survives even war and plague. As for the rest of the stuff, like I said beginning is a bit wonky but just stick with it. All the actors did a good job. All the characters were fighting their own fights. DOs dancing... Just wow. This was probably one of the best things to cast an EXO member. So, absolutely watch this movie.

I know Call Boy is suuuuuper pornographic but doesn't lack depth. Seriously there was more character growth and development of story and a touch of psychological drama than most mainstream stuff. Matsuzaka Tori played the main lead Ryu so well and with so much heart, none of the pervy scenes were lewd or unnecessary. The story is about a boy who was left behind one night by his mother who never comes back. As a result even though he tries to be a good, loving boy like his mother told him to be he ends up becoming rather cold and lacking in social grace especially toward women and confesses that he finds women boring and takes sex as just some annoying way to procreate. Until the day he runs into the owner of a underground club and meets the female owner who is in her late thirties. She challenges Ryu's view of women and sex by asking him to work for her escort service even when he's clearly lacking. And so begins an unusual journey where not only does Ryu start to find women exciting but also gets a thrill from sex and starts enjoying life in general. But it all goes downward when he falls in love with the owner who isn’t the least bit interested in him, and his friends find out he's a prostitute and shame him for it. Ok, so I truly appreciated everything about this film and how it basically humanizes people with sex perversions. I don't think any other film I've seen so far does this in such a beautiful way. Ok so because I live for BL interactions lol my favorite scene was between Ryu and Azuma. But ok if you get easily offended this is really not for you though.

First let me give you my honest overall thoughts on this movie : even after several rewatches it remains one of the best thrillers I've seen. It's dark, it's brutal, and you will never get tired of Ji Chang-wook, because he's perfect for this role!

This movie was so gripping and real adrenaline rush the whole imprisonment aspect (for angst lovers this movie is a must watch) especially how dark they got at times it was all excellent, even the hallucinations.

I liked the premise, a bunch of gamers, of different ages and genders band together to fight for the main lead, who is wrongfully accused of a murder. But the thing is the first part feels different from the second half almost. I feel like they were trying to get the feel of shows like Gotham because the villain was clearly Penguin inspired but it wasn't executed as well.

And it's not exactly realistic because the hero will frequently do insane action after getting the kind of injuries that should have got him completely unable to do anything. But Shim Eun Kyeong looks hot!!! But MOST action thrillers movies or books, Hollywood or otherwise, do this, they don't do realistic injuries or realistic anything, and this is one of those. My point is I'm not an idiot lol I see plot holes and other issues but for movies like this where they cast my favorite actors, I can easily overlook all that. Every movie is different.

But I have to say that prison part was very messed up, so might not be for everyone.

Anyway, so yes, if you can deal with the darkness, this is an excellent watch.

This is by far the BEST scammer ~ con-artist drama I've ever seen! Gorgeous men and angsty and a touch of dark humor, and Sugino Yosuke looks like the kind of guy who you just want to take care of and protect. So watching him do the scams is both fun and makes you anxious lol because living vicariously through his character is a given because SCAMS is so realistic when it comes to the nature of crime and especially scams, you'll find yourself in the same place as him because what happened to him has happened to us all at some point. I've seen scam fiction a lot and most of it gets super preachy, and even when it's full of action like Squad 38 the writing fails in many ways because it just feels like someone is giving you an hour long lecture on 'crime is bad' even the recent Dying Eye failed for me in that aspect. And why I prefer Aku No Hado and Scams instead. They're way more mature. Anyway if you like con artist fiction do watch this though it can get pretty dark. And I have to mention - I am crushing on Otani Ryohei BIG TIME. XD Can you say Call Me Daddy one more time lol sorry i m awful I know ^_^

I love when a drama completely surprises me when I go in not expecting much because everyone kept saying it was terrible, whatever, but as far as I know this drama is well written and thoughtful and funny and just pretty much on point in every way. There is no extra level cheesy corny stuff like wok of love and undateables they just annoy the hell out of you sometimes, there was nothing in this drama of that sort it was extremely well made. Characters didn't just change overnight and even at the end, something I find unrealistic in kdrama is that the male lead does a complete 360 turn after like two dates with her why? This show makes Lee Yoo Chan (Suho) go through experiences that don't just have to do with the girl. So basically they show that everything in life has it's place. I think it's been a while since I saw a drama in which the male lead wasn't mean and selfish toward a family member, who just goes to some lame date over the weekend to Jeju and acts like a completely different person um you're not romantic, you have multiple personality disorder! Js Suho's character retains most of his exterior characteristics, and it doesn't feel forced it's very realistic and natural and the changes are subtle. The takeaway is that You Need to Keep Your Dream Alive no matter what it is and no matter how ridiculous it seems because only the people who dream can make it come true. I LOVED the speech in the end that he gave to his co-workers! I loved that the main female lead wasn't fainting front left and center she was strong, and even though she started out being a pushover, her character learns through the sixteen episodes to find her voice, and not just everything in relation to the male lead was important to her. She valued her work, and her other relationships and friendships. And that need to stand on her own two feet despite the fact that a hot, rich loaded dude was in love with her. Don't get me wrong this show is addictive (I literally didn't sleep till I'd finished watching it), extremely hilarious, and has the best cheesy moments, all my favorite tropes (bad boy love, angry asshole male lead) , (I totally lost it every time they said Suho was not funny kind of an inside EXO L joke ). The romance, yes, it was a real slow burn. But no character was annoying, even the people who turned out to be antagonists, I love that they showed that everyone makes mistakes. That people sometimes get hurt by our words that we don't even remember or realize what we've done and as a civilized person we should take responsibility and apologize and try to make it work instead of just giving up. In the end it was about love and friendship and valuing the people close to you and making sure they don't feel wronged. That greed changes you into a monster. Honestly, I didn't just root for the main couple but also Cha Do Jin and Mi So, I loved their interactions! So happy for Min Tae Ra too that coin thing was cute !

SO SATISFYING RIGHT DOWN TO THE END.

The bromance is great with great suspense plot and backstories with ample disturbing content but naturally because it's TV it's not quite as gory but it's definitely dark and twisted.

And it's just so gripping! You won't be able to stop till you've finished.

I really liked the way the character arcs came together but the best part for me was the way they were always there for each other even when they've all suffered traumatic events. Just a great storyline overall.

Lee Minki, just wow. So dark and messed up, I seriously ended up hating the brother after everything he did for the older brother, he couldn’t wait to stab him in the back, quite literally. There's this coldness in Minkis eyes that makes you feel both terrified and thrilled at the same time. The indifferent way he reacts to killing especially that chopsticks scene is still in my mind. Honestly, I'm a fan of Go Eun she's great in Goblin but I found her so annoying in this! I don't know if it's just that character probably, but still it was hard to relate to her. Still it's a nice helping of sociopathic serial killer and the revenge of a not so normal girl.

The reasons I rated this drama so high.
1, Sakurada DORI.
2. Phenomenal skin ship.
3. Sakurada DORI.
4. Pervy kinky male lead
5. Sakurada DORI.
6. Sakurada DORI
7. Sakurada DORI

And did I mention SAKURADA FREAKING DORI

XD

If that's not enough of a reason, well okay I know most people can't stand the idea of insta love so what can I say, MORE DORI FOR ME YOU LOSERS!!!!

XD

So now that that's out of the way I just thought this drama was well made, full of eye candy and the couple had chemistry and it's not the most brilliant writing but it's not bad writing either. This is very much guilty pleasure wish fulfillment at its finest!!!

If your criticism of a movie that STATES CLEARLY it's dark, adult, violent, is that it is dark, adult and violent, seriously learn how to read. I don't care about the four grade school children who got "offended" by the view of nude human bodies (THE HORROR) and I assure you neither are any of the actors or creators. I don't understand why you seek out such movies? So hypocritical. Anyway, moving on. I'm a total wreck right now because sure this is a gangster film some heartbreaking was expected but honestly when Korea does cinema right, it becomes PHENOMENAL. Obviously, this is an ADULT film so please don't watch if it's not your thing. If you're a well adjusted adult and these things don't offend you I would absolutely recommend this. The filming, the acting, the two main leads are both my favorite actors but what I love about this one is that Lee Minki isn't some desperate guy mulling over making a kill, fuck no, HE IS A KILLER. That was established in the very first scene. But he's the protagonist. So yes, I absolutely loved it

Seriously just amazing from start to finish! Those last few episodes were seriously the funniest and I was crying lol at least there's Heart For You (Sim For You) so I can keep getting my EXO fix ♡ If you've been following these guys since First Box you'll see them growing but in a major way like Baekhyun said in the most important way they're the same passionate, outrageous, dorky weirdos who are not afraid to show their selves. But even if you're not a big EXO fan this show was seriously so entertaining and hilarious I couldn't stop laughing the entire time I was watching it. My favorite part was Chanyeol Chen aka CC ♡♡ and DOs reading of his drama with Chen doing the background music that was just everything! Sigh. I'll be watching it over and over again lol

I really loved watching this during the comeback promotions and I really enjoyed their conversation and Key making a meal and Taemin showing off his non existent driving skill lmao ???? seriously and it was touching watching their days pass during live stages. But the best thing about the whole show was getting to see the members Minho, Onew, Taemin, and Key really enjoying their time together. Shinee has always worked hard, no matter what, they've been through so much and still stand tall. Nothing makes me happier to see them shine.
