Semantic Error (2022)

Rafraichissant

Voilà un petit BL fort rafraichissant. C'est la première fois que j'en regardais un coréen, et j'étais contente de voir qu'il a été mené comme tel.
J'ai aimé cet univers de l'université, de ce jeune très "rigide" qui découvre quelque part, l'être humain dans sa profondeur. Et j'ai eu un vrai coup de cœur pour Park Seo Ham, qui m'a touché.
Tout se passait dans les expressions, les gestes, l'histoire est menée dans le ressenti et pas forcément dans les actions. Mais c'est ce qui fait justement la force des coréens.
De fait, j'a bien aimé, je me suis laissé embarquer et je l'ai trouvé frais et bien mené.

De plus, 8 épisodes de 20 à 30 minutes, j'ai doublement apprécié la petite pause entre deux longs dramas.

A découvrir !

Semantic Error was...an error

As a long time fan of Park Seoham and KNK, and is also familiar with DKZ, I’m sad to say that this was lukewarm at best. The acting was cringey at times; perhaps not being able to take Seoham seriously is a personal issue knowing he’s such a goofball, but at times it looked like he was holding back laughter or trying too hard to be cool. Much of the acting, like some kdramas, feel unnatural or very 2D. I couldn’t feel the romance, let alone bromance. The bantering was adorable at times but ‘gotcha’ moments weren’t hitting as they should be.

The story, overall, isn’t too messy but it felt slow and draggy for an 8-episodes-25 minutes-each series. The timeline wasn’t the clearest. Did they fall in love within two weeks? But Sangwoo’s birthday is in October? Jaeyoung leaving for France in the middle of the semester? So he won’t be graduating again? I’m confused.

I’m a big fan of Yuna, Jaeyoung’s female friend. Her character is so fun, calm, and badass. If she gets together with Jihye, I think they’ll make a cuter couple than Jaeyoung and Sangwoo. Originally, Jihye seemed like an innocent girl with little confidence, but she turned out stronger than I thought. Her straightforwardness would go well with Yuna’s relaxed attitude. And whatever happened to Hyeongtaek’s confession lol?

I don’t have a lot to say as nothing really happens but I do like the cast, the music, and the storyline of game designing. I did wish they used and had a wider range of music but that’s creative differences so--

Loved it, one of my top10's

I started watching this purely out of boredom and I even thought that I will not like it at all, but I ended up rating it a 10/10.
I really love all of the characters and I like how the main lead actors have some kind of history going on between them (?). The setting of the drama is in college which most would think is overused in bl's at this point, but I personally like this setting the best. It is still very relatable but features adults which is what I like. And, enemies to lovers also happens to be one of my favorite tropes. This drama is almost perfect in my opinion. I loved the teasing that Jaeyoung was doing and how Sangwoo responded to it.
Even the behind the scenes were very funny and entertaining to watch. After finishing the drama, I read the manhwa and I loved it just as much as the drama. Then I found out that there is also a web novel of this same story which inspired the manhwa so I'm going to be reading that soon. And there is an animation as well (?!). I'm not sure. But either way, I'll watch/read anything that is connected to this series >-<.

Amazing!!!

Honestly, I deeply liked it and the fact that it's so short really makes it perfect for re-watching it over and over.
I would be lying if I said that I wouldn't want this to be longer, and also if I said that the ending wasn't a little rushed (that's why I won't give it a 10); but considering that it is a korean bl, and we all know who rushed they can be, it really isn't bad.
Maybe what I liked the most was the cast, I really think every actor suited perfectly their role, I almost thought they weren't acting at all and they were telling us their real story... Amazing!!!

10/10

I was very disappointed with a lot of "BL" Series before, for what felt like lack of it. SO many titles felt like they could've had done so much better, but this series honestly blew me away and not many do. It's a very cliché and classic University Trope story so I found it hard to start watching it at first, but I absolutely do not regret it. The acting and the actors ate and the story was portrayed so nicely. I actually felt a full circle of emotions unlike other shows that felt too fast. For a series with only 8 episodes and 28 or so minutes each, I really felt that this was paced spot on. I 100% recommend this to anyone and also 100% will rewatch, which is surprising because I don't usually rewatch series, but this one was just too good.

An Error That Can't Be Solved!!

Semantic Error would be a new mark in Korean BL drama history and one of the best ever BL i have ever watched after WYEL and To My Star. It literally screams how opposite personalities attract each other.

About the few things i liked about this series is -
the period of time was really different this time. usually BL dramas (such as To my star, The Tasty Florida, Kissable Lips and so on) have a storytime of 10/12 min per ep but this time it has 25 mins and i was astonished to see how good the character and the atmosphere was portrayed. nothing felt too long or too short. I really wanted this kind of production and i hope in future there will be more dramas like this

second of all, I am surprised how good the acting quality is. Dongkiz's Jaechan did a decent acting which really suited the character, Chu Sangwoo who is cold and analytical. KNK Seoham also portrayed the playful character of Jung Jaeyoung. Moreover both Seoham and Jaechan are new in BL kdrama industry so it was really good to see the chemistry they had between them onset and off set. i love them both equally and their interactions were pleasing to watch.

about the ost, i have no objection like it doesn't suit the drama because it does! i listened to the osts in YouTube and tbh it felt better in the drama. so like in one word the ost and the drama blended so well.

I would say that definitely watch it. you can read the webtoon of same name. The drama adaption is slightly changed since we know how conservative korean society can be. But this is a big milestone in BL. I am glad many idols are coming forward about LGBT and supporting these dramas. Definitely 10000/10 drama.

best kbl

This is the best kbl, the acting and cinematography are superb, they’re in different level!
I love the storyline bc it’s neat, somehow this drama makes the original story fluffier
The casts are sooo good. Can’t even imagine a better sangwoo and jaeyoung, even their friends’ casts are so good too
The osts are sooo good, it fits the drama so well! a whole bop, I’ve been listening to it for a week straight
I hope there will be season 2, it’s okay to wait for 2 years as long as the casts are still the same, it will be more fun to watch how their relationship to develop in season 2.

A beautiful cast with a beautiful relationship ❤️

Another great hit out of park. Just the right amout of everything. This was definitely a beautiful story of 2 college guys that dont know each other, but are looking for each other. Sang Woo is a junior and very smart, but not gullible and is part of a group project that everyone hoping he'll do it. Wrong* instead he calls them out and they get a F and some cant graduate college like Jae Young. Jae young goes on a man hunt to find Sang woo and in the intrum sang woo is looking for a game designer. Once they meet S. W. explains he hates liers and people are responsible for their own work. This causes J.Y. to annoy S.W. for a few days when he realizes that its not bothering him at all so now he wants to understand JW better and how his mind works. Then when a girl Ryu Ji Hye who likes S. W. comes into the picture he finds himself interrupting them on many occasions.The physical connection and personality makes them the perfect pair once they figure out how they each need and fit into each other lives. I enjoyed the other cast members as they also did a wonderful job. I enjoyed Song Ji Oh who played Choi Yu na and how she looked to be tuff, but was funny and playful a needed part (hope to see more of her acting) same with Hyeong Taek and his crazy hair.
The kiss seens between Sang woi and Jae Young were spot on that you could feel the attraction and emotions and it wasnt fake, it was hot ?. I like the personality that Sang woo gives off that everything has it place, but then he becomes the aggressive one in the relationship and surprises J. Y. facial expressions are just to cute. Just love it sorry it ended would love to see more if them.❤️?❤️??

The chemistry is off the charts!

Two main characters have such great chemistry. It's amazing. The story is simple. Nothing outlandish happens. It's very cute and heartwarming. It had that perfect amount of angst caused by pining and stubborness. The slow build up from enemies to lovers was soo worth it.
The actors did a great job. The main couple complimented each other so well on screen. I also really enjoyed all the side characters. Everyone was so perfect for their role.
I was thinking whether I wanted second season or not, cause on one hand I feel like this story deserves more, but on the other I don't know what the second season could be about without the creators coming up with some convoluted conflict (as it often is for second seasons). Right now it's perfect as it is.
