Oh My Assistant (2022)

Super cute and Funny but short like all the Korean BLs

I really enjoyed watching this, I may or may not rewatch this if I was bored, would I recommend this? Yes, I would but only if they needed something desperately to watch. It has a happy ending but it wasn't satisfactory. They took so much out of the webtoon which is very typical coming from Korea. I knew they were going to take out the spicy when making the drama but they took out the ending when they show the two mls moving in together and hiring a new assistant. I would of loved to see them pretending they weren't a couple in front of the assistant while she knew the whole time cuz they were bad at hiding it and she accepted them just to find out she is a bl fan.

Fluff series from a steamy webtoon

I did really like this drama, it's fluffy and cute the acting is okay even though I have the feeling one actor is better than the other.
The story is good and somewhat near the webtoon. It's a good an light watch. They even went the same frustrating route of misunderstanding as the webtoon did.

But it sometimes just feels weird, the way it is filmed feels off sometimes, especially the confession scene was filmed so weird that it didn't feel like they even really looked at each other, i do know that this is most likely do to the reshoot of most scenes that they had to do when they changed the actors because of a controversity.
But it just takes away from the story, and they could have done better ngl.

Also something that bugged me a little bit as someone who has read the webtoon and loved it, was the lack of skin ship and cuteness of these two. I know the webtoon is spicy af and ofc they couldn't even do half as much as the webtoon portraits but for a series that talked multiple times over sex and had the actors end up in some well, obviously two toned, positions the kiss scenes just lack kind of.
But maybe that's just me.

Again it's a good drama and something i may rewatch when I'm hella bored, and i do recommend it if you like the trope of misunderstanding and are a fan of very fluffy story's.

Office Romance on the Smallest Scale

I’m so surprised with how much I enjoyed this show. Not because I thought it would be bad, it’s just that a lot of k-BL’s are coming out that I didn’t think I’d be too interested. From the first episode alone I was wrong.

I remember hearing this drama was coming out and the premise of it being an adult webtoon created getting an assistant and they fall in love. That’s pretty small of a summary but just watch it. It’s interesting and not afraid of the adult themes it brings up. But the thing is- it’s funny and self aware of the absurdity of the situations.

So far the main characters are very fun especially Seon Ho. This show is all out with the humor with sexuality and it’s not treating being gay as a joke. Instead it pokes humor at other ‘things’ and is enjoyable and not forced with the humor. It’s lighthearted and the tone doesn’t shift harshly, the camera work is good- it’s not biting off more than it can chew. Gu Mu Yeong is very handsome and I love how forward Seon Ho was with hiring them, I’m looking forward to their interactions and this show is very promising.

Now after reading some of the webtoon... let me say that its a surprise that they would adapt this in the first place. They really keep the tone so similar and change things where they need to. It is so clever to see the changes and to see what they keep.

With this one and the miscommunication, you have to remind yourself it’s based off a webtoon. Now then doesn’t lower my standards.. I honestly appreciate it more because of it. It’s just me saying that you can’t take this drama too seriously because it’s a short web series and it’s doing it’s job of being cute and funny too good
Finishing this show up it can get a bit frustrating but for what is based from it does pretty well. This show is harmless and I really enjoyed it

É uma série que te prende da melhor forma.

Um dos melhores BLs japonês que já assisti. É super válido dar uma oportunidade o quanto antes para se apaixonar pelo casal protagonista e secundário. É uma longa jornada para o personagem principal para estabelecer a si mesmo como humano, como alguém com necessidades e anseios por conquistas em sua vida. Ambos Kurosawa e Adachi são postos a prova quando a leitura de mente se tornam frequentes e passam pelo término. Recomendaria para qualquer pessoa, sem êxito algum. Estar acompanhando Adachi em seu autodesenvolvimento pessoal para cobiçar coisas novas em sua vida, te inspiram da melhor forma possível a ser você mesmo, independente de fatores contrários aos seus desejos tentarem lhe atrapalhar. Foi uma história curta, mas, ao mesmo tempo, fofa e divertida para se acompanhar. Espero ansiosamente por uma continuação.

Promising in its own way

So far, I really like how even though the assistant is queer, it’s not highlighted in the show, or taking anything away from the character, making his interest in the other character super casual, as opposed to other shows that act like they might be checking off ‘queer male lead’ on a checklist. I just started this show, and I’m super eager to see how this drama develops. It’s like a recipe; it has all the right ingredients, I’m just waiting to see if it turns out well. I think when you’re first interested in someone, you feel butterflies, and take things slow, and I hope to see something well-paced and realistic in this drama.
