Honestly, its beautifully shot and there's Ji Soo, I'm a huge fan and it gave me an intense rush, violent, gritty and fast paced action literally never stops.

A bit lacking in emotional depth. More violent than the last one, and there's Ji Soo, so naturally I had a great time. But it's pretty messed up, so be warned. But the cinematography is excellent.

Emotional depth wise I prefer the first season with Park Hae Jin. But plenty of content for those who can take violence. Another thing, in the last one they were actual serial killers but in this show pretty much all the back stories reveal people who are basically innocent.

This is what happens when you write about something you have no clue about and you don't even bother to get a better understanding of the subject. They wrote a makjang and went hey trans people are edgy these days right everyone is doing it so we'll add it without ever bothering looking up things like gender dysphoria or do any research on trans people whatsoever because we don't actually care about anything but catering to people who still think a 'woman' should look and act a certain way, and reinforce even more gender stereotypes while we're at it because patriarchy and gender roles don't hurt males too, right? RIGHT? ??? Look. I'm just going to say this. If you're going to add trans people to your fiction, by all means do so, but you need to do some basic research, and I honestly overlook minor misogyny and other problematic content, I don't need something PC either, I have loved and enjoyed plenty of things with problematic content because either the so-called 'problem' is slap and kiss or any non-con dub-con (or even gender roles, use of bad boys trope et al) for instance, and the show treats it like a kink, or the problematic things misogynist talk or gender roles are not being thrust in your face that frequently. I just can't watch something where EVERY OTHER DIALOG is either about someone telling her how to talk, dress, or reinforcing gender roles and she goes o sure I'll do this from now instead of setting the person straight. There was nothing 'kinky' about it, at least not for me lol and it was ALL THE TIME.

I LOVE EM I LOVE EM I LOVE EM :')

I LOVE when not only does a Thai BL hit the spot with me but makes me bingewatch couple vids on YouTube for the rest of the night and for the most part of the next day XD

Do i have BrightWin wallpapers on all my devices replacing the Pete Kao ones ive had FOREVER hell to the yes!

Have I been screaming every time Bright is being unbearably soft for Win and his beautiful ass smile in a youtube ship vid f yes!

look. Sometimes i have an inkling about why i like what I like but other times my brain is all like ... cute boys kissing being soft ME LIKEY LOL
But one thing I will say 2gether isn't perfect and might be a tad weak story wise, i t has some genuine writing, genuine hilarity, and the bonding between the male leads feels organic and there's a kind of natural innocence and relatability to both characters.

SO YES. give me more.

This movie was quite simply one of the biggest mindf**ks I've ever witnessed.

I couldn't think of anything bad with this one. It's true. perfect from start to end. It's a dark end but it's perfect.

Two brothers start living in a new house, in a completely new neighborhood with their parents and the movie begins with the young brother Jin Seok played by Kang Ha neul, talking about their family, especially his hyung Yoo Seok (played by Kim Mu-yeol) who happens to be the kind of person who never smokes, never drinks, and is all around intelligent, kind, and friendly despite getting into a serious accident and gaining a limp in his leg.

We see how truly enamored Jin Seok is with his family and most of all his hyung who he treats like a god. We also see that Jin Seok not only suffers from terrible nightmares but also takes anxiety medication. It is unclear why he needs it, that part is not explained.

There's a room in their new home which the previous owner had instructed them not to use so the brothers have to sleep in the same room. When Jin Seok questions his father about the room his father explains that the owner left clear instructions: never to go inside that room or touch anything in it.

That night, Jin Seok hears noises coming from the room but no one else in the house seems to hear anything so Jin Seok attributes it to the thunderstorm.

But the room and strange occurances still continue to haunt Jin Seok.

When Yoo Seok sees his brother is still feeling a bit anxious, he takes him outside in the rain for fresh air hoping it would make him feel better. The brothers both take in their new surroundings. It's obvious how much they love each other. How protective they are of each other, enjoying junk food together and constantly teasing. They don't even mind sharing the room so much.

When his hyung gets a call from his father, on his phone to bring him a document that he needs to study, Yoo Seok tells his younger brother to wait for him and he will be right back.

But before Yoo Seok has even returned to his house, some men beat him up and push him inside a black van while Jin Seok tries madly to go after them and manages to memorize the license plate number of the van before he collapses.

When he wakes up, there's no news of his brother still, no one can find him. They wait and wait for the kidnappers to call and demand ransom but nothing happens for ten days.

On the tenth day, Yoo Seok walks inside his home, looking unharmed but he can't seem to remember anything about what went on during those ten days. Everyone assumes it's some kind of amnesia brought about by whatever might have happened while he was gone .

The family is happy to have the son back, they start getting back into their daily routine.

But the more Jin Seok hangs around his hyung, the more he realizes his brother is acting strange. Almost like a different person. At first, Jin Seok shrugs it off as his imagination but things start to get stranger still and many times he wakes up in the middle of the night to find Yoo Seok gone and nowhere to be found.

When he confronts Yoo Seok, Yoo Seok denies it completely and Jin Seok believes him.

Until one night, he follows Yoo Seok.

Honestly, Haneul is the perfect casting for this role because he has this innate innocence that this character carries and his acting from start to finish was just amazing. Best mind games movie I've seen in a very long time.

This is all meaningless conservative propaganda. If you're different then you're the villain lol seriously the only people with any integrity were Win and Sprite and they were both not shown in a positive light. Tor's character had integrity too in the beginning when he was with Sprite but then he becomes .. wait for it... A LITERAL MONK and joined the rest of the self-righteous clan. Serious WTF storyline. And the BL story like most characters in the show they act on a whim, you don't feel them actually bonding mostly because of the lack of a good script and shoddy direction. So I couldn't care about any of the relationships because there was no chemistry, nothing. No on screen bonding especially for the BL story. It's like the creators saw SKINS (my favorite show btw idc what you think) and wanted to make it edgy and dark but they don't really understand anything because this is clearly the work of an immature mind. And okay I always say this, I 've always had a problem with SOTUS 'bullying is good for you' bs but I still don't rate it low because the couples got chemistry and the couple's parts are done so well and the script and direction is good otherwise. Because yes Hormones could have become SOTUS but the COUPLES WERE ALL SO BORING. I had to keep myself from falling asleep lol at least Win Sprite and Tor in the beginning were interesting characters, the other characters TOTAL SNOOZE FEST. And i know Hormones gets compared with Gloomy Salad Days so I'm going to tell you what I think. GSD is nuanced, and has heart. Hormones isn't even guilty pleasure ecxept for a few scenes. GSD might look low budget but it feels like a cult classic whereas Hormones is just shallow and unremarkable. Okay there you have it. Sorry to everyone who liked it, I know im being harsh.

Not going to lie I started watching cause of Steven Yeun and eh it was disappointing.

It's a kid's movie that's what it felt like. If it's your thing it's not mine. And they gave Steven a minor unimportant role so yeah.


Kind of a waste of time

I mean everything was way too comical and I mean you were supposed to feel for the animal lib group but all of them were just as irritating! At one point the leader Paul Dano (who by the way is one of my favorite actors and I still couldn't find it watchable) starts beating the crap out of Yeun because of a tiff like how was I supposed to feel sympathy?

No one was relatable! No one.

I should btw commend the girl who played Mija she did it very convincingly.

Before I go on with my review about the season let me say this - I seriously ship Eiji and Ankh. The moments between them were extremely good and I'm grateful for them but they weren't enough of those beautiful moments imo.

Honestly one of my least favorite seasons. The character of Ankh is completely without substance and no clear motives. He's so random, and there was nothing that made me feel a connection between him and Eiji. Seriously even most secondary bromances have more substance and depth in Drive, and Build than W, than these two. And let's talk about the 'heroes' okay let me tell you it's not a good sign if when the 'heroes' team does something to bring down the 'bad guys' and you feel bad for the bad guys and absolutely nothing for the good guys team. Because there were some good friendships between the characters but even then someone would leave, or just weren't convincing enough and every relationship felt tepid.

I mean Eiji is definitely a character you can root for, but they set up this story to be some kind of Sam Winchester Dean Winchester showdown where Sam is possessed by Lucifer but to make the viewer care for such a showdown means both your characters need to make the kind of impact that would make me give a damn. Instead, we get Ankh, a barely developed, 'antihero' who never actually gives the impression that he gives a damn about Eiji so why in the world would I care about any of this! And in general, their interactions were pretty bland and generic for the most part.

So when Ankh goes and gets partially resurrected i felt nothing because they hadn't actually given me anything to take away. It's not like either of them was particularly caring about the other and even Eiji seemed less concerned for Ankh and more for the body he possessed ffs how the hell was I supposed to care. Literally only cared for the villains because at least they cared about each other, their love was more believable. And sure toward the end, by which i mean ep 45, I was emotional when they were both sacrificing but it didn't make up for the pointlessness that came before.
