Where Your Eyes Linger (2020)

Why 10/10? This story has it all. I really love watching it.
Reason:-
1. The cast is really good. The acting was on spot. Ha gi chan and Jang eui soo made me love them through this. I know a little about acting but this drama made my feel stuffy during some points. It was great to see the chemistry of the actors

2- The plot line is so good that it even felt it was real.

3- The Ost actually defined the drama if you hear carefully. It was so nice that honey was dripping from my ears.

There are so many good points in this drama that I can't even describe properly. So I really recommend people to watch this. It is really wonderful. I am sure if you watch it once you would want to watch it again and again.
Lastly I want to thank you for bearing with me since english is not my first language.

I am shocked this hasn't been rated higher but I assume it's mostly because the series is so short with only 8 episodes all 10mins long. And the fact it has only just aired but despite these facts this has to be THE best BL show I have watched in a while.
1. The acting is amazing - The 2 MLs have perfect chemistry and deliver so much depth to their character despite not being able to get full background stories due to how short the series is.
2. The story is actually good. I actually enjoyed the story and the way just it was filmed it was aesthetically pleasing and even moments of silence and stillness added to the story.
3. A good ending. I won't spoil what happens but as us BL watchers know Happy endings can be taken from us often but in this one even without knowing what is fully going to happen the ending is satisfying.
I hope for another season of this drama and I hope that future Korean BL can follow in it's footsteps.
I hope that this does really well in Korea itself so we can start a new precedent with BL and FL dramas

Thank you VIKI, thank you 한기찬 and thank you 장의수. I loved this series. From start to finish, I enjoyed the journey. Each week I patiently waited for new episodes and their translation. The soundtrack, the cinematography, the script, the directing, everything was superb. MOST IMPORTANTLY, though, special mention must go to Jang Eui-su and Han Gi-chan for their outstanding acting. They were 100% believable and gave their all to their characters. For too long, gay men and women have had to sit on the sidelines where they have often been regarded as damaged goods that weren’t made quite right. As the world is now starting to realise, though, being gay is just another possibility of what it means to be a normal person. To me, Han Gi-chan and Jang Eui-su are heroes. In lots of ways, South Korea in 2020 still seems to look at gay people a bit strangely and, because of this, these men must have thought long and hard about taking on gay roles. I am so glad that they were brave and that they did. They will make a difference right across the world. I highly recommend this short and extremely well produced BL drama. 감사합니다 And to the translation teams… 1,000,000 x “thank you” because without you, I could not have enjoyed this wonderful creation.

Happy and satisfied. That’s what I felt after watching this drama. The only complaint I have about this is that it’s super short...but it’s somehow still executed better than most 16 episode dramas. I couldn’t wait to watch the next episode and I didn’t want it to end (I demand a season 2).

The chemistry between the main leads was freakin amazing I was melting every time they even LOOKED at each other. For this to be Han Gi Chan’s first drama!? He SLAYED.

This just shows that when South Korea finally breaks out of their shell, they can create something that is absolutely amazing. I feel bad if this is someone’s first BL because everything after it won’t feel the same. This just sets the standards too high.

I started this drama because its very rare for Koreans to produce a BL series. It's usually kinda awkward, lousy acting. But this one is really good. I was astonished with the acting by leads especially HGC considering its his first acting venture. JES has an attractive aura which will make you want to see him more.
Story wise, I feel it was a bit cliche, a bodyguard and master falling in love was no surprise but the way they executed it was amazing. A mediocre story was uplifted with good acting, direction.
The part which surprised me the most was the kiss. I know it's common in BL when the leads kiss, but we need to keep in mind that this was a Korean BL where people have still not accepted LGBTQ community wholeheartedly.
Supporting cast did a pretty descent job. I have no complaints about the length of the drama. I think it was a great idea to keep it short rather than dragging it. Kuddos to the entire team!!
Music played a major role in excelling the drama. In future, if they plan to make a BL, I hope they focus more on real world problems rather than only romance factor between the leads.

En general es un buen drama, si un poco cortó pero igualmente entretenido, la química entre los actores en verdad no es broma. Espero que en un futuro hagan más proyectos parecidos. Siempre espero con ansías los nuevos capítulos y en general es un drama que creo nadie debería perderse, tal vez al principio parezca bromance y más por el hecho de que para el ep 6 aún no hay beso pero me gusta que la trama se desarrolle lentamente, el hecho de no tener situaciones tan intensas de verdad logra que te metas en la trama y que cada pequeño gesto valga mucho. Es un buen drama de verdad no se van a arrepentír de verlo.

I never thought this series would be great. I didn't expect much since it only has 10-12mins per episode . But goodness, they already did a great job just with the first two episodes. The story isn't so unique (i saw this kind of plot in chinese bl), but as I'd said they still manage to do great. They gave us background and some hints what to expect with the main characters, a glimpse of their future conflicts/problems to face. I like how the production showed us how and what kind of relationship the main leads have with only 20 mins. The cinematography is very captivating as well as the music it blend with the atmosphere and the scenes it is very clean. The actors showed expertise of what they were doing. I am not really the type to rewatch what I've already seen, but for those whose otherwise then I must say it's a good catch.

There are still 6 episodes left but i would probably stay tuned to what will happen next.

When I heard Korea was gonna release their first mainstream BL drama, I was a bit nervous. Nervous mainly for the actors, hoping my babies won't get too much backlash. And I was worried the level of skinship might be discounted. Long story short, I wasn't expecting much.

When I started watching this, episode after episode, I was hooked! There's so much emotion in the way they looked at each other, unspoken words, pent up longing and fragile souls. You could feel it all! They didn't need too much skinship at all! Even when they're not touching, you could feel the intensity. That's how good the acting was. When Tae Joo cried, my heart broke to pieces! Young chaebol getting his heart broken for the first time, no no no!

I felt like the music was soothing and on point. I'm just at episode 6 now and so far I haven't seen much romantic skinship. I don't think they'll have it as Korea is not used to the same level of BL we always expect from the Thais and Japanese. But it's still enjoyable nonetheless .

A Real BL from Korea!

What's not to like about this one? Great story. Great actors. Happy ending. It falls short of a 10 rating only because I can't believe these two guys have known each other practically since birth and only now, at age 18, are they are revealing their true feelings. The script could have used a few flashbacks or even a few dialogue references to hints about their evolving attraction as they were growing up. Some of the character motivations were a bit illogical, like why was Tae Joo trying so hard to hook up his friend with a girl? Why was Tae Joo such a ladies man, breaking the hearts of several girls at once? Well, I suppose he was playing the role of a straight guy to disguise his true orientation. And maybe forcing Kang Gook to date a girl would force him out of the closet? Tae Joo's Mafia Boss-like father, with his James Bond villain-like henchman, was a bit over-the-top -- unintentional comic relief that distracted from the tone of the drama. The restaurant owner with "gaydar" and the running approval of Tae Joo & Kang Gook's relationship was a nice touch.
