by far a revolutionary k-bl
in this essay i will explain how semantic error is and will always be one of the best k-bls out there…starting with the perfect adaptation from the novel to the incredible production of the whole thing, i literally can’t find anything i don’t like about it, after watching semantic error twice i decided to read the webtoon and i’ve never done that in my life, then the novel, and in between that i re-watched the movie/series a few more times.
and maybe i AM biased but jaechan is an excellent actor and seoham executed his character perfectly i feel like there were no other options as sangwoo and jaeyoung. they belong to their roles.
this bl had an interesting impact on the media, it still is ‘charting’ and to this day people keep finsing themselves going back to rewatch!
overall, semantic error is a fun, humorous but romantic and lovely movie/series!

why is this not rated higher?
One of the few I rewatch!Good story writing and good acting! emphasis on the writing and acting because so many dramas do this poorly and that add a bunch of spice hoping to mask how terrible their drama is.
Not this one!
It’s a decent enemies to lovers trope and it was nice seeing their relationship evolve. I also like the bits of humor in the drama without being cringe or cheesy.

no errors found!
honestly, i first watched this when i went through my first obsession with kbls, back after it came out. i was taken aback by how smoothly everything went and i was even expecting it to go sideways as i finished the last episode. it simply DELIVERS. the actors all knew their role and place, the music is honestly over-the-top (i listen to romantic devil on a daily basis), and the way they adapted the storyline from the manhwa still amazes me, because even being in a still sort of restrictive country like south korea, the team sorted out how to show stuff like sexual tension without getting explicit. i love this show.i recommend that everyone watches it at least once in their lives!

Basic but done very well.
I feel mostly the same about the series as I did about the manhwa. I think the story doesn't rewrite the genre in any way or do anything different but it does the basic beats very well. I really enjoyed the visuals in the first episode and I think everything with the production was really nice. It didn't feel overly produced as some things do these days. I loved Jaeyoung's work space and everything about his styling - as I did with the manhwa as well. Everything about him was really well done and he continues to carry this story for me.Sangwoo got me a little irritated similarly as the manhwa story because I don't think Jaeyoung deserves all the confusion - but they are both stubborn and hence they compliment each other.
Also huge crush on Choi Yuna. Everything about her. Yes.
Now that I've consumed this story twice in different mediums I don't think I'll be revisiting it any time soon, but the artistic components of it I do love and I think will stick with me.
I think this is a cute starter BL and definitely a heartwarming story. I was giggling through some of the scenes and I do wish we got a little more like the final scene of how their dynamic works together post confession.

10/10
i dont have a lot to say but that this kbl was perfect! it was cute and never boring, sadly it was really short. i rewatched it alot of times already and actually never get tired of it! its not my overall fav out of all bls but for kbl it is. i wish some more kbls would have such a good chemistry as these two! aslo the actors are perfect for this drama, couldnt imagine any others.Was this review helpful to you?
CUTE
this show gets me. it understands me. i am one with the show and it is one with me. it was made for me. i was born to watch it. our astrology charts align. if i’m the moon, semantic error is the sun. it is the bella to my edward. the pitter to my patter. the apple to my juice. the wolf to my howl. i know no life without semantic error. it is the reason i smile. the reason i laugh. i wake up thinking about semantic error. i fall asleep thinking about semantic error. i dream about semantic error. it’s my food. my energy. my love. my life.Was this review helpful to you?
For NOW the pacing of the whole thing is going well. Its not rushed, but i cant say more to this since we're only two episodes in.
All together i like it! I dont see any flaws in it at all. It seems like a good quality series and i rlly look forward to the improvement of the characters. Many people are pointing out harrasment and bullying, but honestly i dont see it. As Sangwoo said himself, there haven't been done anything illegal. Jaeyoung is just annoying.

Incrível.
Essa obra é PERFEITA! Com certeza uma das minhas preferidas, me surpreendi muito assistindo achando que ia ser chato e monótono, MAS FOI COMPLETAMENTE O CONTRÁRIO!Simplesmente enemies to lovers é o melhor estilo, pois conseguimos ver os personagens gradativamente deixando suas raivas de lado e se apaixonando um pelo outro.
Não poderiam existir pessoas melhores para interpretar os papéis do Jae Young e Sang Woo do que o Seoham e o Jae-chan!
Quando acabou me senti a pessoa mais triste do mundo pois uma obra tão incrível deveria ter no mínimo 20 episódios. PERFEIÇÃO!

best Korean BL
The best Korean BL series I've ever watchedI hope that with a popular Korean series like this, even a series that managed to break records on Netflix will make directors and producers in Korea make as many BL series as possible and with as many episodes as Korean dramas in general and with a long duration of each episode.
The story is very good and also the acting skills of the actors are also beyond expectations.
the cinematography effect is also very good, even I was amazed for the first time seeing this Korean BL series. I hope this series has a season 2 and I can't wait for Park Seo Ham to return from his military service. This series is highly recommended to watch.

there are no flaws! A MUST-WATCH FOR NEW BL FANS!
the plot of this story was carried out extremely well. the acting overall was phenomenal, and i could hit the replay button on the kiss scene in ep. 7 so many times! the fact it was the actors who suggested the kiss scene makes it even better. their on-screen chemistry was intense.if you're a person who recently got into BL, this is the perfect drama for you to watch. additionally, if you're a person who likes the genre hate to love and dramas that focus on college life, this is just for you!

Probably now one of the best BLs of all times
Seriously, the chemistry, the music, the ambiance, the acting has been top notch from ep 1 to ep 8.I'm always unsure about a second seasons of shows because they usually screw up a lot but if they make it as good as this one, I would love a second season.
Every time the actors were on screen I felt like blushing because of how cute and intimate they were with each other, a long with the camera angles made it such a charming experience.
If you're new to BL shows this is probably one of the first shows you now NEED to watch.
