You Make Me Dance (2021)

My favorite BL Kdrama along with To My Star - both are cute, sweet, not toxic, and not cringey!

This and To My Star are great examples of BL dramas with limited episodes/time done right. Sure they fell in love kind of fast but it wasn't necessarily love at first sight. For example 3 years had passed since their first encounter, and Hoseok falls in love with Shion after watching him dance. I love that because I was mesmerized by Shion's actor's dancing as well. It could've been rather cringe but you can tell that he has a passion for dancing and that the actor also has some experience with modern dance.

I love the music combined with the cinematography in this one scene where Shion is auditioning. The lighting is rather dark but there is a spotlight on him. Then Hoseok appears from the darkness, even though in reality he's not actually there but Shion is dancing for him. Hence the title. That part was done especially well and I keep rewatching it.

Their acting felt super natural to me and I like the way each actor portrays their emotions. It's not overly done to me. Some scenes people might say is cringey weren't at all to me because of how the actors deliver their lines. I squealed at moments from the cuteness. The kissing is as good as To My Star's - an actual, real sensual kiss unlike those of some other BL dramas I've seen...I also like how Shion the more "cute" character is the more aggressive one when it comes to initiating skinship and kisses, while Hoseok looks scary/intimidating but is adorably shy.

The only downside would be the ending, since the conflict with the rival and Hoseok's loan shark business was resolved kind of quickly. But overall I really enjoy this series and wish there would be a season 2! But if not I will be rewatching this series, and I've already been replaying the ending song "Today" over and over.

It worth it

I haven't seen a lot of K-dramas and this became one of my favourites. I had problem to fall for this story firstly, but then it happened somehow. It's hard compare to whole BL, It's really good for Korean ones. Yes, the plot seems strange in the beginning and not for everyone although it's cute, sad, lovely and I need to watch it again.

As I said, I think plot is weaker and not because it’s simple. Shi On is like homeless sad puppy and Hong Seok did mistake because he pat him. When you keep this comparison in your mind, the story become more realistic.

If I think about actors... I'm sure their visuals suit their roles. And they are handsome as a bonus.

In the end this is a story about destiny and desire to be loved. Also, I was look forward to kissing scene, because whenever I saw interesting plot and actors this was fail, but there I felt it. And I stand for what I have said.
