Funny, fluffy, with some serious drama too...
This is such a sweet hidden gem, with drama, fluff, more drama and more fluff... Oh and some humour too.Though the main theme is a little bit out there, taking body swap just one step longer having two people in both bodies at once. Making way for som fun, fluffy, (yes I said fluffy again), and awkward situations with a focus on time zones instead of the oh so popular over used gender. giving us a lovely bickering couple who can bicker a lot without actually meeting each other... Watching these two use all kinds of self harm to fight each other is funnier than I thought it would be, and though there may be some slight second hand embarrassment that would otherwise bother me, it could be my mood, but it did not bother me at all.
Both leads are lovable, and there are no purely annoying characters as each supporting cast seems to do their role well, all are well casted, some I would say extremely well casted (Patrick Shih) and the movie is well written with good pacing keeping me curious and interested from start to finish.
I am willing to admit that some parts of the plot are a tad predictable, however they do have their own touch as well as great visuals and again fluff, fluffily, fluff... Ok there is also a guy in a coms, loneliness, a guy who crosses the line here and there, people being treated badly, lack of privacy and death... but it is well imbedded in fluffy cover of white snow... Making you forget all that stuff and only remembering the fluff... Just kidding... the pain and struggles are very much real and are well balanced by the fluff, how well is up to you to find out if you watch this movie.
If I should complain about one thing it is the idea of you must love yourself to be loved that is repeatedly mentioned here.... I say a person who truly cares will love you no matter how much you hate yourself... So forget pressure about having to love yourself or find yourself to be loved, that you can do regardless... So just take the love stuff out of the equation.
Definitely a movie I recommend, and it is even available with subs free and legally on you tube!

Literal Soulmates
Might i start by saying that it was a wonderful story. The plot, which sounds absurd, actually is pretty nice giving to the logic of soulmates getting connected. It's actually pretty sweet to think that everyone has someone and by miracle, u might be able to meet them or even better, be connected by brainwaves.Things I liked in the story:
I think if u know someone well enough, you might be able to love them truly or hate them truly. The plot of this story truly revolved around this. Both of the leads understood each other so they were able to value each other throughout.
Another part of the story I really liked was understanding a relationship is toxic without blaming others for your pains. The FL understood this before things went out of hand. Better late than never.
The cast was beautiful. The leads were the only characters shown and the other characters were almost non-existent which is actually a good thing for a low-budget and fast-paced movie. There weren't many actors and everything went smoothly. I have seen ZYR in Our Shiny Days and she didn't fall short of my expectation. It was my first time seeing Patrick but damn, that man is good. Honestly turning into a fan.
The only flaw of the movie was it was too fast. Or very smoothly should i say? The movie did have alot of unnecessary things that it wasted time on hence making the real part less timed out. Tbh, his friend was totally unnecessary. He was there and he died uselessly. Okay so as if this was some emotional value to give for a character that existed for 5 secs in words. If that time was given, somehow, to make the romance more valid and show us some sweet moments, the movie would have rounded up nice and clean.
Overall, rewatch value 10 cause its a good romance movie considering sad ones fill the internet. Finding a rom movie with a happy ending is like finding gold. At least, it ended good.

Slow, quiet movie
The pace of this movie was very slow and quiet. We get a look into the lives of two people that are living thousands of miles apart, and how destiny brings them together. I guess you could call this a 'hate to love' story. Having someone disturb your sleep, talk to you inside your head, and try to sabotage your life can't be easy or fun. There were some cute scenes of them messing with the other's lives. But then a bond is forged, a rhythm is established, and they learn and grow from one another.What happens if that bond gets broken somehow? This movie addresses this, though I didn't think it was in the most clear-cut way.

This was a brain twister and deep SyFy Fantasy Movie and a must see for me.
Here is a quick Korean or Chinese drama downtime moment that will only take an hour and one half of your time, but will stick to you with afterthoughts for several days after viewing. This is the Romance Fantasy movie 0.1% World. Personally, I could loop this movie over and over and not discover all that is there to take in. 0.1% World is the story about a girl and boy living on different continents. Inexplicably, they get linked to each other’s brains. They can hear each other, talk to each other and at times even move the body parts of the other. Because they live in different time zones and on different continents, it becomes a challenge to live and fashion life under these circumstances of a mind meld. Neither one wants to know the identity of the other at first. They just need to placate the problem by learning how to live with each other, sharing lives as they do, and not get in each other’s way, until they figure out how to fix the problem. Ultimately, what does this shared experience do for them? This Chinese SyFy Fantasy movie blew my mind. It invoked such deep thought surrounding their dilemma and how they chose to resolve certain issues.The stars of the Chinese film are Zhou Yi Ran from ‘When You Be Me’ (2022) and Patrick Shih from ‘Someday or One Day’ (2022). I recommend both works by both actors in addition to their collaboration in 0.1% World.
These two travel through Discovery, Compliance, to Discord in 0.1% World.
Actor’s Corner
Both actors give dynamic deliveries in 1% World. Taiwanese actor Patrick Shih often has been compared to Park Seo Joon by Netizens. He speaks fluent German in this movie, 0.1% World.
Zhou Yi Ran is also a great young Chinese actress. Her acting abilities and range of acting are fully on display in ‘When You Be Me’.

Lovely
Story : Simple story, straight to the point and efficient.Acting/Cast : As a man i will only talk about the female main role because i think we watch these to relate in some way to story and the feelings going on during the scenes as the counter part of the main actor/actress.
Her acting was touching, her expressions of feelings were heartbreaking.
Physical appearance : natural beauty is something i value very much, i think it makes her prettier than any more famous star doll (even more than the ones considered "beautiful").
With or almost without makeup, she is definitely attractive in her own ways, and my standards.
Artistic direction :
- There weren't many different landscapes, which means that they didn't have a big budget, mostly indoors, and they managed to make a good movie.
- Too many drama/movies nowadays take the easy road of sexual lust (this includes kisses a bit too visual), mistakenly confusing it with erotic genre (relating to or tending to arouse sexual desire or excitement) and forgetting the whole point of what is supposed to be a romantic drama. To each its own, i am old fashioned.

"0.1% of World": A Serendipitous Telepathic Journey Filled with Comedy and Heart
"0.1% of World" is an extraordinary movie that I stumbled upon by chance, and it has now earned a permanent spot on my list of must-watch films. From the very beginning, the premise of a telepathic connection between the male lead in Germany and the female lead in China sets the stage for chaos and comedic brilliance.
The initial moments of the film are pure gold, filled with hilarious mishaps and misunderstandings as they navigate their newfound telepathic abilities. They can hear each other's thoughts, feel each other's pain, and even experience the effects of alcohol when the other is drinking. The comedic chemistry between the leads is electric, providing endless laughter and amusement.
As the story progresses, the characters realize that constant bickering and fighting won't help their situation. They slowly begin to find common ground and learn to live in this strange reality they find themselves in. However, a major fight leads to a temporary breakup, which ironically serves as a catalyst for them to discover their true feelings for each other.
Fate plays its hand, and the characters continuously miss each other in their daily lives, adding an element of longing and anticipation to the story. Fast forward a couple of years into the future, and they finally meet for the very first time, and from that point on, the story takes an unforgettable turn.
While "0.1% of World" is a captivating film that takes you on a serendipitous journey, one aspect that some viewers may long for is a definitive kiss to seal the deal and provide closure. It would have been a perfect way to conclude the journey and provide a sense of fulfillment for those who followed the characters' tumultuous path.
Despite this minor longing, "0.1% of World" remains an exceptional movie worth watching. Its blend of comedy, heart, and the unique telepathic premise make it a captivating cinematic experience. Get ready to be immersed in a world where laughter and emotions intertwine, leaving you thoroughly entertained and rooting for the characters' happiness.
Overall, "0.1% of World" is a delightful film that proves that love knows no boundaries, even in the face of extraordinary circumstances. It's a testament to the power of connection and the beauty of finding love amidst chaos.
