Could’ve Been Better With Better Subs & Fixed Plot

It’s 100% how most comments mentioned, the subtitles are extremely crucial in these kinds of movies and mainly in this one. I say “these kinds of movies” because I’ve watched a couple movies, mainly South Korean but also other countries, that have 18+ content in them and usually they’re portrayed as artistic or movies with deep/dark meanings. Even with good subtitles it is so hard to understand these movies because it’s either not portrayed properly or just too hard to understand or both. I had to use the little bit of Korean I knew to understand this movie in the slightest, because even with the subtitles I was lost, the subtitles would say random stuff that didn’t necessarily make sense in the context and instead made things more confusing. But even with my knowledge and visual clues I was still extremely lost. Then we move into the sex scene, which I need to mention looked extremely real, there’s no way that’s fake. Someone mentioned in the comments how they could probably find an uncensored or longer version in a porn site and honestly it’s probably true, cause Jesus Christ that looked so real I was questioning where I was watching this movie for a second. But anyway, there isn’t much going for this movie, the plot is weak, the subtitles are horrible, everything is extremely confusing, and half of the movie is just them fucking. As much as I like my fair share of NC scenes and chemistry, just having NC scenes and no plot doesn’t balance the movie out. I need the balance of everything, plot, chemistry, NC, cute moments etc. Yk? I wasn’t gonna sit and watch this entire movie knowing it would probably just be full of NC scenes and I was right cause I skipped through it. So yeah dropped. I also saw some comments and some review comments mentioning how this is LGBTQ+ and not BL so basically saying LGBTQ+ movies have a more broad way of it portraying different people in different sexualities and gender identities and more. Which is why I don’t always rate these kinds of movies too low for what they lack because it’s a certain genre. Though I can acknowledge the genre, I can also acknowledge what it lacks. So yeah. Overall I’m gonna rate this a solid 6/10
