  • Semantic Error Movie

    1. Semantic Error Movie

    Korean Movie - 2022

    10

    Watched this while the clock struck 12 for the new year whoop whoop. I love them so fucking much.

  • Cheer Up

    2. Cheer Up

    Korean Drama - 2022, 16 episodes

    8.0

    This was fairly good but I watched it at such weird intervals that it was lost on me a little bit. I enjoyed the like dramatic mystery part of it a lot and I always appreciate a good sports theme. The love triangle was kinda dumb and I didn't super care for the main romance. I like it, and they were really cute once they got together but I wasn't super invested or anything like that. I enjoyed the side couples a lot more. I did love the FL so much though, she was so cute and funny and I loved the relationship she had with her best friend, they were really cute. Overall it was decent and I enjoyed it.

  • The Director Who Buys me Dinner

    3. The Director Who Buys me Dinner

    Korean Drama - 2022, 10 episodes

    8.5

    OMG this is literally so close to a 9 for me. If it was just a little longer and had just a little more explanation and if it developed a little slower it would've been there for me. I really really enjoyed the romance it was so good and nearly made me cry especially near the end.  The last two episodes were especially so so good. I really enjoyed this one and I can see myself probably rewatching someday. Also, Denis <33 my love

  • To My Star 2

    5. To My Star 2

    Korean Drama - 2022, 10 episodes

    9.0

    I put off watching this for so long, and even considered not watching it at all but I heard people say good things so I finally decided to give it a try. I ended up bingeing it in one go sbdsjfh. To keep it short, I liked it. I liked it a lot actually, but it wasn't perfect. There was enough abut it that I didn't like that it kept it from being a 10 for me, or even a 9.5. The last episode would've been a 10, but with everything combined I had to give it a 9. It's not even really the fault of the drama, more so the content. I can't stand time skips and break up plots so that kinda ruined it for me, especially since that's the entire focus of the plot lol. That's why I'm never a fan of S2's of romance dramas bc it always has to have some kind of break up plot for there to even be a S2. This was done pretty well though as far as break up plots go. It wasn't unbearable, there was just a lot of stuff that bugged me and so many scenes I kept thinking "I would've done it this way if I had written it" but It's also 8 in the morning and I haven't slept so I'm being overly critical. It did stay true to the characters for sure, which I appreciated. Some of the new content felt unnecessary for me but overall it wasn't bad. Even as I sit here thinking abut it and writing this though, something abut it still bugs me. idk, anyways. Overall, I really enjoyed seeing them again. I love them so much, and they did eventually give us a lot of really sweet content that I adored <33 I'm glad I watched it, it was worth it. I also would have been fine without it too though

  • Hemp Rope

    6. Hemp Rope

    Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

    8.5

    After two years of waiting it definitely what I was hoping it would be. Although I still did enjoy it in the end. Ironically, I became more invested in an entirely different couple than WinTeam and they got the least amount of screen time lol. Oh well sdgsh. It wasn't what I wanted for WinTeam's drama, and I certainly won't be rewatching it but I still enjoyed it. After two years I finally got to see them get together <3

  • I Will Be Your Bloom

    10. I Will Be Your Bloom

    Japanese Drama - 2022, 10 episodes

    9.5

    I loved this so much. It had so many aspects to it that I just absolutely adore. I love any dramas surrounding music especially when it's idol related and I love idol romance although I wasn't super into this one. I've always been obsessed with found family themes so I loved that. Almost every single character was likeable, epecially the members of 8loom (Naru is my bias so to speak lol) and their music is literally so good. I loved the lgbt rep and how it was included casually like it wasn't a big deal. They had bisexual rep, aroace rep, a gay couple and another character who had feelings for his group member and they didn't make like a huge deal out of it. They were just there naturally and I loved that. Naru having feelings for Dan obviously did contribute to the plot but not because it was a mlm situation but just because it was conflicting emotions and I loved that. I'm also just obsessed with one sided love and ansgt when it comes to friends (mosly only when it's gay though bc the hets just don't do it right) This drama was emotional, and had nice messages about following dreams and good pacing. It never really bored me and I watched it in two sittings bc I was so invested. Overall, I really liked it and I'm so glad Netflix reccmended it lol.

  • Individual Circumstances

    11. Individual Circumstances

    Korean Drama - 2023, 8 episodes

    8.5

    I really liked this one! It wasn't amazing by any means but I just loved the concept so much probably bc it's friends to lovers and revolved around writing lol

  • Ameiro Paradox

    12. Ameiro Paradox

    Japanese Drama - 2022, 8 episodes

    8.5

    This was really close to a 9 for me. It was so cute and I loved the concept and it was interesting and it even had some nice themes in it. Their chemistry was good and the characters were likable, especially Onoe who I adore. Overall, I really enjoyed it. 

  • GAP

    13. GAP

    Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

    8.0

    The only reason im rating this as high as a 8 is because it's a full length GL. If this was a BL, or a het romance I would've dropped it. I was so happy to have a full length Thai GL series but like a lot of GL, it disappointed me. There are too many things to list about it that bothered me, not to mention that it was just kind of boring. The characters weren't even likable. I disliked almost everything about it. The romance itself I didn't like either. I'm trying to think of something positive to say about it beyond "It's a GL" and I really have nothing. I didn't even like the OST lol. I'm so grateful that it exists, however. There are so so many bad BL out there so we are just evening out the playing field so to speak. Now we just have to wait for the good GL (23.5 <33)

  • My School President

    15. My School President

    Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

    10

    I just finished the premier of the final episode and I am quite literally shaking. I'm having a hard time typing because of it. This was the single best thing I've ever seen. I know I say that a lot, but this really was absolutely incredible, no exaggeration needed. I'm literally so happy right now. It was the most perfect thing ever. GMMTV really out did themselves. I've never laughed so much and smiled and cried and just absgdsh. I really can't explain it in proper words. This series means so much to me and I'll treasure it forever. If I could rate it higher than a 10, I would. There are so many things I want to say and compliment this series on but I can't even begin to word things right now, let alone type with my shaking hands so hopefully this will get my feelings across: ABHVGSCYRYAGSVCAY GSTRXDZATGYSCRDFG YWSDYSHUDYCGD HUSWSUHD BGSVFGA HSGDFGSHJASHGXD JSHD

    I really enjoyed this. It wasn't the most amazing thriller I've seen but it was really good. It was lacking in some areas but high in overall enjoyment level. 

  • SF: Joan's Galaxy

    17. SF: Joan's Galaxy

    8.5

    Interesting concept, but not as cool as I thought it would be. I enjoyed it but if it wasn't a GL I would've rated it lower

  • Never Let Me Go

    18. Never Let Me Go

    Thai Drama - 2022, 12 episodes

    8.0

    I wasn't going to watch this originally, because I never really cared for these actors together. FUTS was kinda... meh and I just couldn't see them in a serious role together. I also wasn't a fan of two of the main actors being ~homophobic~ But I got bored in the end and gave it a try. I skipped all the scenes with the homophobes and just watched the rest and sure enough, I couldn't take it seriously. Good plot and concept, but wrong actors. They're decent actors and they've definitely improved but this kind of plot just doesn't suit them in my opinion.  They also just don't have chemistry to me. They don't really convince me that they're in love, idk why. 

  • Utsukushii Kare Season 2

    I'm so so so so happy to have them back. I loved seeing the continuation of their storyline and their relationship and seeing how they've grown and evolved together. This made me so happy and it was really well done. I can't wait for the movie sequel.

  • Moonlight Chicken

    20. Moonlight Chicken

    Thai Drama - 2023, 8 episodes

    10

    This was really amazing. From the casting, to the plot, the cinematography, the soundtrack, the acting, etc. It was all really really good. It had my literal top three actor couples EarthMix, GeminiFourth and FirstKhaotung, like it was so perfect just from that alone. It had such fantastic characters, and really well developed plots and themes. The pacing was good and it was really just such a well done drama.

  • Strangers from Hell

    Korean Drama - 2019, 10 episodes

    7.5

    Incredibly disappointing and a huge waste of time oml. I'm never ever trusting tiktok edits ever again. They took like the only three decent scenes in the whole show and ran with it. I love serial killer stuff but this was boring and completely uninteresting. I understood the point of the drama and the metaphors and all but like damn. I hated every single character, especially Jong Woo. Literally one of the worst things I've ever watched.

  • A Shoulder to Cry On

    8.0

    WASTED POTENTIAL. It was so god at first and had such god angst potential especially with the trauma and the ML with BPD (I'm diagnosing him lol) BUT THE LAST TWO EPISODES WERE TERRIBLE.  FULLY RUINED IT. There were so many things that annoyed me in the last two episodes and it brought it wayyyy down for me. Especially not one but TWO HUGE TIME SKIPS???? If I completely ignore the last two episodes, it was really good and would've gotten at least a 9.

    Interesting concept, but didn't end up being as good as I thought it would be. It felt lacking to me overall and in the end I ended up more bored than I was invested. Good acting though, and I liked the characters.

  • The Eighth Sense

    43. The Eighth Sense

    Korean Drama - 2023, 10 episodes

    9.0

    Not what I expected for sure. It wasn't as good or as angsty as I was expecting. All of my friends watched it before me and hyped it up so I think part of me expected more. It was pretty tame with the angst compared to some stuff I've watched. Not to say it didn't have any however, bc it definitely did. Just not to the extent I expected. Overall, it was really good. The acting was great, and I loved the cinematography and the soundtrack. The plot was good, I liked how they went into the trauma a lot and reflected how that trauma affected their relationship. I loved the commentary regarding it and showing their different view points on it of how one side thought they were protecting the other but in a way they were just being selfish and protecting themselves. I thought that all was very well done. I also really enjoyed the ending message, the theme of 'we don't know how this will go, all we can do is try'. There were a few things here and there that I thought could have improved which is why it's a 9 and not like a 9.5 or a 10 but still pretty good.

    I had been super excited for this sequel since the first movie ended on such a big cliffhanger. I was really happy when I saw that a part 2 had finally been released, but unfortunately it started kind of boring but then it got really good at the end abs emotional and had humor unlike the first one so it was pretty good. I'm trying to write this while high, sorry. I watched the last half of this movie while high too whoopsies

    Watched this entire thing while high help. Anyways, it was okay. Definitely nothing special but I did enjoy it it. The pacing and plot could've been way better but the acting was good despite what I've seen others say. It was okay for a one time watch and it made me so so so happy seeing Zuho in a piece of queer media.

  • The Bride of Rip Van Winkle

    Definitely a very beautiful and moving film but far too slow paced for me. I don't usually enjoy this style of film although I can appreciate it to an extent. The ending was especially good, although somewhat traumatic :') As for the wlw storyline, they took over an hour to get to it but it was a beautiful romance.

    A very beautiful story, I really enjoyed it. I would've preferred the actors they cast for the younger roles to be older though... that seemed a bit iffy to me. Other than that, it was overall really good and I really enjoyed the vibe of it. The romance was so beautiful ugh.

    This movie was like if The Boy next door, Antique Bakery and He's coming to me had a baby. It was so good. I watched it while high so maybe that's part of why I loved it lol.

  • The Gun

    Japanese Movie - 2018

    7.5

    I don't think I would have enjoyed this at all if I hadn't been watching with  a friend, because it was definitely fun making fun of the ML together. My personal favorite was "Light if he was straight" although as shitty as our ML was, he was still so hot bc it's Nijiro shdgshefrdsj (we watched it for him, and him only lol) The Movie concept itself was actually pretty cool. The slow descent into madness felt very "tell tale heart" Edgar Allen Poe-like. And the decision to have it black and white right up until the end scene was genius.

    I didn't expect to enjoy this one as much as I did. The plot although simple, was kind of unique in the sense that the setting was different than your average BL. I' never seen one that mainly takes place in a convivence store before lol. It was a well done hate to love plot with good pacing and chemistry. I was very hooked and invested early on. Very pleasantly surprised.

  • Bump Up Business

    69. Bump Up Business

    Korean Drama - 2023, 8 episodes

    8.0

    Okay I'll be honest. If it wasn't an idol romance and if it wasn't starring onlyoneof, it would've gotten a lower rating. I LOVED the concept of it, but it definitely wasn't executed very well. The pacing was weird and the acting wasn't the best (Im sorry ooo ily) It was decent and they certainly weren't bad but you could still tell that they're very much not actors. Kyubin honestly did the best lol, his character was very convincing. Anyways, overall I enjoyed it for what it was and I'm so excited to see onlyoneof in a BL considering they've already made such beautiful contributions to supporting the queer community. Other Kpop groups and companies take notes.
