worth watching!!
Such a good movie to watch! MSD is a really good enemy to lovers movie, I’m so impressed! A lot of Korean BL films and shows have come out this year, and MSD is one is easily one of the better ones that came out :)Story: an interesting plot for sure, i personally liked it and it kept drawing me in. basically, the main character, chef yoon, works at this place called laura’s restaurant (or something like that) as the head chef. his job is threatened by chef choi, and get off on the wrong foot. they slowly but surely fall for each other after seeing each other out of the kitchen.
acting/cast: the acting moved me, it’s always the way the leads look in each other’s eye that i determine if they’re acting is actually good. let’s just say these two had me in a chokehold :) the cast was really good looking and made me forget they were actually acting!
music: good soundtrack!! but the one song that girl sang in english whenever anything romantic happened was B A D 😭
rewatch value: i’d actually rewatch this because it was that good and easy on my heart hahah..
overall: watch it!! it’s a good bl romance movie <33

A different kind of given (worth watching)
So I'm like a hardcore Given fan and I still liked this adaptation for 3 reasons:1. The song that replaced fuyu no hanashi was so fitting for the drama! i understand why people don't want another song, but fuyu no hanashi makes sense for the anime because the story was told like the manga. the drama took a different approach to the story, so the new song made more sense and fit it better. neither song is better or worse than the other, they just make sense for their adaptions. the ost in general was really nice.
2. The acting was great for almost everyone (i have a thing against mafuyu's actor's acting because it's just too monotone for me, but some people enjoyed so i won't say nun about it) but i LOVED uenoyama's actor! he was so expressive and i could feel the emotions through screen. i really liked the rest of the cast, you could feel their energy and it was just enjoyable to watch because of them. also, yuki and hiirage's actors were PHENOMENAL like my heart broke even more from watching the added romance scenes between yuki and mafuyu and hiirage's pain.
3. boi support good bl adaptations so we can get more! i want a ten count or hitorijime my hero adaptation jdkshfsdjkhdj

very fun to watch!
i love this drama! everyone’s reviews scared me, but i still watched it and was not disappointed! obviously the production and stuff wasn’t all that top notch because BL K dramas and films are still new to south korea, so the budgets for these movies and dramas aren’t gonna be that high. i still enjoyed this very much though! it was simple and sweet. the bottom was sooo cute omg he was pretty as a woman and as man. i loved how kind he was to everyone, and didn’t make a fuss about being a replacement bride for his sister. i wish they made more historical bl dramas like this :)Was this review helpful to you?

HOLY SHIT THAT WAS GOOD
ok ok so i'm usually really picky in BL's and rarely enjoy them the way i did while watching this! i know that sounds bad considering the plot of this, but i think this was a very well done movie. it kept me hooked and interested, and i had more fun watching this low-budget R18 movie rather than a trashy high-budget k-drama with no character development.story: great story overall! i loved the character development that happens between both characters. my only question was how did mc fall for the seme so quickly after escaping? that was kind of weird nd a bit rushed, but i went along with it cause it kept the story moving.
acting/cast: the mc's actor was phenomenal! his acting was superb, the noises he made during the R18 scenes weren't necessarily realistic, but i loved that because it was so much better than dramas with the just seme moaning. both actors did well overall, the facial expressions and dialogue were well done.
music: the music suited the scenes it was in, so no complaints there.
rewatch value: oh yea would def rewatch it, especially for the R18 scenes.
