Gay movies/dramas
A list of all the gay/lgbtq+ movies/dramas I've watched so far.
Any censored romances will be specified as such, as will any series where I've written too much, and therefore had to post a review instead.
In regards to recommendation specifics:
Yes: Either means that I really enjoyed it or that I believe most other people would like it.
Yes and no: Either means that I didn't particularly enjoy it or that there were some messages/choices I didn't like.
No: Either means that it was a sad/tragic ending, not really a BL, or that it was plain bad.
I also feel the need to add that, obviously, my opinions can differ from others, and my reviews are solely based on MY feelings. Maybe you would thoroughly enjoy a series/movie that I, for lack of a better word, disliked. My reviews can also be quite harsh sometimes. I am just a person who feels very deeply about, well, most things. I don't (usually) mean to offend anyone, and I respect that we all have our own feelings about stuff. The last thing I want is for someone to write something negative/hateful on this list or on anything that has to do with me. I do NOT want it in my life, so if you do disagree with my way of thinking/doing things, please just pretend I don't exist. Thanks!
(Can you tell I'm terrified of judgment and criticism?)

301. I Feel You Linger in the Air: Uncut Version
Thai Drama - 2023, 12 episodes
(1-12) (Eng subs) Free) (Uncut)
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoqdmwJPCU35AqHWHKLdr5RWqQhBiVl61
I feel conflicted yet again. There wasn't actually anything wrong with the series, but I couldn't help but feel somewhat bored at times. People said that the cut version was incomplete, but this uncut version felt too long, in my opinion. That is the biggest reason why I didn't rate it higher. That does not mean I thought it wasn't good. The plot was different from most BL's and done pretty well. The actors were really good. The main couple had chemistry and were likable. So, other than the fact that it was dragging sometimes, I'm not sure why I don't like it more than I do. The ending confused me. I guess they plan to make another season. Overall, I'm pretty sure most people would enjoy this to some extent.
There were kisses and steamy scenes.
Happy/open ending.

I want to start by clarifying that the movie is three hours and twenty minutes, not two hours and twenty minutes like it's written here. In this one, we were really able to see just how much An Zi Yan and Mai Ding cared about each other. We rarely get to see gay characters fight so much for their love, especially against their parents. Zi Yan really didn't care at all what others thought. I quite liked him in this movie. I also really liked how they were able to keep their friendship. You know, fooling around and such, despite also being lovers. All the parents were horrible except for Mai Ding's dad. We didn't really get to hear much from him. Zi Yan's grandad was awesome. It was quite interesting how the oldest of them all was the most accepting. The pacing was weird at times, and there were a lot of mistakes. That was the case for the first one too, but I thought it added charm in a way. Sadly, we never got to see what happened next, but I guess if you are very invested, you can just read the novel.
There were kisses and sex scenes.
Open ending, but if the third movie/season hadn't been banned, then according to the novel, they were going to get a happy ending.

This is a fantastic series, but it definitely didn't succeed ITSAY, not that I expected it to anyway. That said, it is a top-class BL if we can even call it that at this point. Unfortunately, the story in this was actually more painful. Teh became quite unlikeable to me. He was selfish, slightly manipulative, and frankly, he didn't deserve Oh-Aew. Teh kept massively fucking up, and he was pretty much always the one that had to apologize to Oh-Aew and not vice-versa. I'm not sure I could've forgiven Teh for what he did if I were Oh-Aew. Also, in this season, I thought Teh and Jai had more chemistry than Teh and Oh-Aew. The chemistry they had in the first season was better for some reason. I'm a bit tired of second seasons that are only made to break up couples and then get them back together. Surely there were other things they could have made it about. All that said, the acting was once again impeccable. I did like the character development. It was a much more mature season. Oh-Aew had the literal most amazing friends. That is nice to see for once. The ending was realistic and not overly happy. They still had a lot of shit to work through. The cinematography and the script were still good this time around. I don't love this anywhere near as much as ITSAY. Second seasons are usually not as good, though. Still, it was good and a hundred percent worth a watch or two.

It wasn't bad, just forgettable. There's so much that could have been explored with a premise such as this, but alas it turned out to be yet another BL that tried to be more than just that and failed. Whew, that was a mouthful. Basically, I was disappointed. The ending was super anticlimactic and felt drawn out. There was also an entire episode that was almost solely about Yu's ex. Oh well. The characters were not my favorite. Ai was pretty bland and mildly annoying. Yu was definitely the most interesting to me. I think it helped that Putter is a great actor, whereas the others are simply okay. Yo was an idiot, to be honest. He seemed to almost pretend to be denser than he actually was. People like that get on my nerves and don't even get me started on that rap confession part. I died a little on the inside. Ing kind of creeped me out. He didn't seem to take rejection very well and I felt like he downright pressured Yo into liking him back. Also, in the second to last episode, Ai took an insane amount of sleeping pills because Ing suggested it. So he was obviously also a great friend. I can't believe that they thought that scene was okay. In real life, that would have killed him. Overall, I will have forgotten about this series in... now.

This is probably one of the most well-acted BL's of all time. Everything was just so perfect. The cinematography, the acting, the chemistry, the locations, etc. I felt it all. Teh coming to terms with his sexuality. Oh-Aew's frustration with Teh not being able to love him openly. It all just felt so natural and real. Although there was only one kiss, it was beautiful and so satisfying. Every moment of them together gave me butterflies, something that rarely happens. I just felt really awful for Tan and Bas. Hopefully, they'll find their happiness with someone else.
There was a kiss.

This was way too long. There were just so many unimportant moments. I was bothered by Thi. I can't deal with the over-the-top characters that avoid all intimacy, even though they are supposed to be convincing me that it's mutual. I really don't get it. Noey was shit at first, but honestly, I grew quite attached to him. He was almost precious, in a way. I just didn't understand why he would be into Thi. In general, they also didn't have chemistry. I was patiently waiting for a kiss, and what we got was a literal joke. Basically, I enjoyed Noey, but everything else I'll forget about pretty soon, I think.

Firstly, stellar acting. The movie itself was mostly grasping and enjoyable. Min Kyung's reaction to finding out about their relationship wasn't great. She liked Yong Joon at first. Then after she found out, she didn't even want to see his face. After all the things he did to prove himself to her, she did end up liking him again. Whether she accepted them being together was not really disclosed. I don't think she was that supportive, though. I truly think Yong Joon was one of the greatest characters ever. He loved and took care of Soo Hyun so selflessly. He even ended up prostituting himself for him. The poor man went through so much shit. It was understandable that he felt torn in the end. He had his love back, but at that point, he must have already accepted that Soo Hyun might never wake up. That could take a serious toll on your feelings towards someone. He didn't seem truly happy. At least they left us with the hope of them starting over. I need a sequel, boy. Anyway, the movie focused more on Mi Kyung and Yong Joon and how they dealt with Soo Hyun's state. Yong Joon and Soo Hyun's relationship wasn't the main factor. In the first half of the movie, we did get some insight into their relationship, though. So that said, the movie is worth a watch, but not if you're only interested in the BL portions.
No lip kiss.

Boring. Cliche. Forceful. Shitty ending. It ticked all the boxes for a traditional Chinese BL. Basically, I didn't like it. There were also love triangles, and honestly, I found it so hard to get through this. The last episode was terrible. There was straight-up rape. Just why? What is it with the Chinese and making queer people seem awful? Then there was the second couple. Meh. It didn't really make sense. It was too sudden. Neither of the couples had any chemistry. The kisses sucked. The ending was predictable. They just had to separate them at the very last moment. For what? It was silly. Sure, they were still in contact but WTF. The other couple was left open.

As is tradition with most Korean BL's, the kisses were dry as hell. It's just so ridiculous. They had no chemistry. I would have been more interested in a series about them before they had a falling out. Woo Jae seemed like a much more likable character back then. The entire series was basically him holding a grudge and being moody. There was potential, but as usual, it fell flat. At least the acting was okay.

I mostly enjoyed it. The acting was okay. They tried a lot of different things with this series. There was the narrating, the poetic ending, and the many supposed-to-feel-deep talks. Some worked, others fell short. I just felt like the tone changed as we dove further into the story. It was more cheerful in the first half. Some of the character's choices didn't make sense. Frankly, I was a little confused throughout the last two episodes. But hey, the main couple was cute. They had decent chemistry. I liked Cholo and Migo's talk in the last episode. Migo said some very needed things. The other two couples were not great. I liked the girls together, but it felt a bit rushed. I really want closure for Josh, Max, and Andrei. The way they left it was unsatisfying.

This is probably one of the most easy-going and stress-free BL series ever. It wasn't toxic or full of BL tropes. It was domestic and wholesome. They were like a married couple. The episode where they babysat together was everything I've ever wanted. Tops and Win brought out the best in each other. It was mostly Win who grew throughout the series. He was also the one that needed it. Compared to Tops, he was less mature. He was a very impulsive and emotional person. At least they always quickly made up after a disagreement. Don't get me wrong, though. I did like both of them. Most of the earlier episodes didn't include a lot of romantic moments. When they finally got closer, though, they were so good together. The acting was great, and it felt very natural/realistic. They must have improvised a lot. I personally don't really care for the food aspect in most BL's, but in this one, they obviously put a lot of effort and meaning into the dishes. It was genuinely interesting. Also, Gameplay actually is a good cook, and Jeff is a singer. It made everything more believable.

It was quite weirdly paced, and it was too short. There was no way they could fit such a complex story into four short episodes. It's a shame because the plot was interesting. The acting was good. The chemistry was amazing. I mean, the second couple was very under-developed, but I saw potential. I always get so happy when they talk about legal marriage in BL's. Taiwan is ahead of all the other Asian countries in that department. That said, it was sad that they referred to Zheng Yu Shi as Wu Zheng's wife. That's regressive.

I can't really say too much about this yet. It felt weird that Wu Zheng both infantilized and also engaged in sexual activities with Yu Shi. I guess he was Noah when he was being treated like a child and Yu Shi when they were intimate? I hope so. I'm no expert on having DID, though. Maybe that isn't an issue? I really don't know.

I'm sorry, but why would you invite your closeted ex-boyfriend, who you look to still be in love with, to your wedding? I mean, Taeil must have purposefully found him. You don't just walk around with a wedding invitation all the time. How pained Jihun looked. Honestly, though, I felt the worst for Jihun's wife. I would assume Jihun only married her to not go through any hardships in regards to his sexuality. Hopefully, Taeil actually wanted to marry Wonwoo and wasn't just trying to get over Jihun.

To be honest, after the first four or so episodes, I lost interest. I was just waiting for something riveting to happen, but the ending of episode five was quite anti-climactic and cliche to me. The last episode was rather rushed as well. I think it bothered me how vague and evasive Ritsu was. Sure, Fumiya was the one holding back the truth, but somehow Ritsu felt much less genuine. I can't quite explain it. The break-up also didn't make sense to me. I needed more context, I guess. Anyway, the acting was good. Their chemistry was sort of on and off to me. I felt it, yet I didn't. I felt the same way about the kisses and intimate scenes. They didn't feel forced, and yet they didn't really feel natural either. Overall, it was fine. I don't feel any particular positive or negative emotions toward it.

It was fairly lackluster. The plot was unoriginal. The writing was not great. Many things were left unresolved. The acting was nothing more than fine. I only thought the second couple's acting was natural. I didn't feel any chemistry. I didn't like the characters. Only Do Yoon. Anyway, after continuously harassing Se Heon, Joo Ha called Do Yoon dirty for liking him. Then Taeyi also said nasty things to Se Heon, and he even sexually harassed him. Yes, both Se Heon and Do Yoon kissed their crushes without consent. That shouldn't be condoned. The problem was that Taeyi and Joo Ha only got mad because they were kissed by other boys. That's just homophobia. Whether internalized or not, there is no excuse. After all that hatefulness both Joo Ha and Tae Yi suddenly were okay with it all. It was uncomfortable and made no sense. Lastly, I just need to mention how odd it was that Tae Yi liked someone who reminded him of his deceased brother.

In the first story, one of them was due to serve their mandatory military service. They went on one last trip before he was to leave. It was cute. There isn't much I can say. The second one was about.. the estrus phase of the estrous cycle? A human male's estrus phase of the estrous cycle... You know, the phase where the female animal is in heat. It was basically a Wattpad story. It wasn't supposed to be taken very seriously, I think.

It was just pretty basic. The directing and writing weren't very good. The acting and intimacy/kisses were good, though. That said, it didn't make up for the boring plot. Also, I didn't really like Lee Jun. He was so bland. Why would THREE amazing men want him? I'm sorry, but seriously. Hyun Jae was my favorite. He was so unproblematic and nice. This series would have been more interesting if he and Simeon actually ended up together, and it wasn't just hinted at. Lastly, what was the point of the "Fiancée"? It was so pointless. I'm also pretty sure it was somewhat offensive of her to call Lee Jun Unnie all the time.

Right, Kurata attempted to rape Tozaki, not once, but TWICE and Tozaki still preferred him over Miyata? Why? Also, how dare Kurata get jealous when they weren't even together yet. Tozaki didn't know that Kurata liked him for more than his body, so what did Kurata expect. He didn't say anything until the very end. He was just a coward, and Tozaki deserved better. Tozaki never actually did any of the things Kurata accused him of doing, by the way.

I'll start off by stating that this film is half an hour long, not an hour. I have no idea why it says so here. The acting was on point. They are both really talented and successful actors now, and it is well deserved. There was no awkwardness between them, and one of the scenes was quite intense. They were just so cute. Min Su's mom wasn't accepting, but she wasn't getting between them either. We can only assume she got over it. I also appreciated that Min Su never had any intention to end things with Seok Yi when his mom caught them. They stayed strong till the end. The plot was generic but not bad. There is no reason not to watch this, basically. Also, I'd like to mention that Je Hoon, still to this day, proudly speaks of his role in this. When he does, he also never feels the need to assure others that he isn't gay. I don't know. It just feels nice to watch a gay movie where you know the actors are supportive and not money-driven.

IIIIII..... Hmmm... Honestly, at this point, I'm getting too tired to write all that much about each series. It was fine as a series. It had its moments. That said, I wasn't particularly thrilled about it. There were some very annoying characters and silly moments that simply tried to drag it out. As a BL, it made me feel close to nothing. I felt like they had a cute friendship, and that was about it. Even the confession lacked romance to me. I guess we can call it very, very subdued romantic interest. I'm sure some people enjoy that. Not me. I don't know. Maybe watch it just because Issei is the best. I'm serious.

I'll start by saying that the acting was great. It was some of the most natural I've seen in a while. Unfortunately, the series was pretty forgettable. Nothing all that interesting happened. It was pretty generic. I liked the characters, and they did have chemistry. Their kisses just sucked. I'm so very tired of stiff kisses. What's the point? Anyway, overall it was good, but not that good.

Oh, the potential. So I really liked the main characters. They had chemistry. The actors did well. The first five or so episodes were thrilling, and I looked forward to the next episodes every week, but then in the latter half of the series, it felt dragged out and repetitive. I honestly found the story a bit confusing. The relationship between Shiro and Ichiro stayed in this constant grey one of, are they in love or not? Shiro was confirmed to be bisexual, and Ichiro definitely seemed very interested in him. That said, they also hinted at Ichiro being into Chika. A woman. She was nice. That just wasn't what I came here for. In the end, no one got together. They did stay living together, though. So, basically, they became the definition of tHeY'rE jUsT rOoMmAtEs. We mostly saw Shiro being seductive with the prime minister. Anyway, they seemed to be teasing the possibility of another season. I would like that, but only if it will actually lead somewhere. If you enjoy watching very subtle romance and/or crime-themed dramas, then I guess it's worth a watch.

Mon and Oak did it again. Although this wasn't my favorite from wayufilm, Mon and Oak never disappoint me with their acting skills. Especially Mon is good at provoking my emotions. The story was a little rushed, I felt. I mean, it was only thirty minutes long. I didn't get why we were introduced to Neung's girlfriend when Neung himself never spoke of her. Did that mean he still hadn't broken up with her when he got together with Tui? It just seemed unnecessary for her to be a part of this.

Dropped. I was so excited about this. Ohm is a great actor and is a big part of making the BL industry so big, but wtf is this? The story wasn't interesting. Ohm and Leng didn't have chemistry, which I can only deduce is due to Leng's acting abilities. I don't like admitting it, but he's just very inexperienced, especially next to Ohm. It didn't help that Leng's character was super annoying. Anyway, life is too short to waste on this. I'm sorry.

I was really excited about this at first. My hopes were high. Somewhere halfway through, or so, I realized how generic and somewhat boring the story was. It wasn't bad. It was just underwhelming. I didn't see much chemistry between the leads. It was so PG that I almost wouldn't have guessed they liked each other. I don't think it was the actor's fault. They did what they could with the script they were given. I found Ida a little too bland and emotionless. Aoki was a little too expressive. I didn't dislike them, though. Anyway, Ida essentially outed Aoki to his friends. I know Ida meant no harm, but he didn't have Aoki's consent. Aoki didn't want others to know. Ida should have respected that. That said, Aoki shouldn't have gotten into a relationship with Ida when he clearly wasn't ready. He was quite selfish when it came to love. So, about there not being a kiss. It wasn't surprising at all. I don't think that there always needs to be a kiss. Cherry Magic is a great example. I believed in their love for each other despite the absence of a kiss. That's what made it so great. In this, I needed a kiss to make me even slightly believe in their love for each other. Aoki clearly wanted to kiss Ida in prior episodes. It just felt off. Lastly, that episode with the substitute teacher was weird. They didn't have to explain themselves to him. What Aoki said about only liking Ida also rubbed me the wrong way. He might have meant that Ida was the only person he liked, not the only guy, but it was still unnecessary having him say that.
No kiss.

Censored romance.
Yu Zhi and Yue Lou were amazing together. They clearly loved each other very much. Yu Zhi is one of the best characters ever. He was just the cutest. The story was quite frustrating at times. There was a lot of repetition, but they kept it interesting for the most part. I think it's also important to mention that Yue Lou didn't have bipolar disorder. It was more likely PTSD. The last ten or so episodes were difficult to get through. Yue Lou went through so much. He lost just about everything. They really enjoyed killing off characters. It's a bad idea to get attached to any of the characters because then they'll die immediately. Some deaths just happened, and then we never heard about it again. The second couple didn't really matter to me. They were obviously never meant to be. One of them found out something about the other that made him resentful. He hated him and wanted him dead, but he sort of also still loved him, which most have been quite painful for him. Therefore, the love turned into more of an obsession. I can't say too much about them because it would spoil the entire story. Either way, one guy was an absolute psycho, and the other was kind and deserved better. I was glad that there was an actually likable female lead for once, and no, she was not a love interest.

I mostly liked this because of Yamato. I can't lie. He was so sweet. Sure, he was a fool sometimes, but who cares? Overall, anyone would be lucky to have him. Anyway, Kakeru, I was less excited about. He wasn't bad. I'm just tired of every Japanese BL couple having an insecure and intimacy-terrified guy as one of the two. I'm sure people like that exist, but why does it have to be every fucking time? It basically ruins any possibility of there being chemistry, in my opinion. The plot was very basic. Sweet and mostly drama-free, but basic. The acting was good. The kiss was okay. Not the best, but also not just smash-and-freeze. I guess I just had hoped that there would finally be a Japanese BL that could do intimacy properly. It's not surprising at this point, but nonetheless disappointing. The hugs were nice, though. I would recommend it just for Yamato. Who's going to stop me?

It was a fairly straightforward and drama-free BL. There wasn't much to dislike. I liked the couple. The acting was good. So, yeah, it was a sweet and short BL that, for once, didn't feel rushed. It wasn't mind-blowingly good or anything like that. It was just enjoyable. There were technically two kisses, but you really couldn't see whether their lips touched or not either time. Japanese BL's still have a long way to go when it comes to intimacy. That said, in this BL, I didn't really need a kiss. I thought they were cute even when they just spoke with each other or held hands.

Was the plot logical all the time? Absolutely not, but man, it's been a while since I was genuinely excited to tune into a BL every week. It was over-the-top, but at least I was entertained. Most BL's are unoriginal and bore me. For once, something different was brought to the table. That said, I can't ignore the toxicity of all the relationships. Kinn assaulted Porsche. Vegas tried to assault Porsche, kidnapped, tortured, and dehumanized Pete. Kim was in a league of his own. Somehow his treatment of Porchay bothered me the most. The only reason why this didn't turn me off completely was that I didn't feel like they tried to romanticize it. Yes, it did end in romance for most of the couples, but we also got to see all the ugly bits. It wasn't easy for any of the characters. This is a BL for those who can handle more mature content, such as nudity, murder, assault, and whatever else goes down in the mafia world. It was only natural for there to be displayed wrong behavior in a series such as this. The acting was phenomenal. Apo, especially, is such a talented actor. The chemistry was through the roof. The only couple that didn't excite me that much was Kim and Porchay. It felt too fast-paced. I liked most of the characters. They felt fleshed out, and a lot of them weren't definitively good or bad. I enjoyed that. The last episode did feel underwhelming to me. I felt like there was so much more to the story. Hopefully, we get another season.

The acting was mostly very believable. There were only a few times it felt a tiny bit unnatural. This was not a couple that had a lot of passion or intimacy. That we saw, at least. But throughout the series, you could tell they slowly fell even more for each other and got to understand each other better. Especially Shiro had a lot of character development. It was nice to see him slowly get more comfortable with his sexuality and his relationship with Kenji. The story was innovative, in my opinion. Although they essentially made food in every episode, it didn't feel boring to me. It was kind of cute to see Shiro be so passionate about something. Even though they did fight, they always ended up communicating. Communication is the foundation of a healthy and long-lasting relationship. Overall it felt pretty realistic to me, and I enjoyed it. Also, it was nice to have a BL depict a relationship between mature adults.

Sadly, I didn't care much for this. I thought it was weirdly paced and all over the place. The "gangsters" were rather pathetic. I don't understand why it's so hard to make a proper crime-related BL. The writing was just, in general, lacking. When they pulled the amnesia shit, I just gave up on it. It's so lazy and just another way to drag a series out. I didn't really care about the characters, either. The main couple had some sweet moments, but I got bored of them halfway through. I also think I should mention the fact that Zong Yi was a literal minor when he and Ze Rui first got involved. Weird. The second couple annoyed me. I was just this constant back-and-forth. It doesn't interest me. To be honest, I was most intrigued by the boss and his lover or whatever he was. I crave more BL's featuring mature couples. The last episode was pretty tame and somewhat of a let-down. I mostly thought the acting was good, but Taro, who played one of the main characters, had quite a limited amount of expressions. So, yeah. It wasn't bad, but it could have been so much more.

The characters weren't likable. BeBoy was a fucking manchild. The twins looked dead on the inside and were boring too. P could have been a somewhat interesting character. When he wasn't being moody he seemed kind of nice. Anyway, after the twins licked each other's nipples I was out. That was it for me.

This one I really liked. It was so cute. They had great chemistry. Also, no, I didn't find their being stepbrothers weird in this context. They were already romantically involved prior to their parents getting married.
Last Kiss:
Not a fan of this one. I really dislike cheating. I realize the guy getting married to a woman was unhappy, but that doesn't mean he can just disregard her feelings and make out with a guy. The ending was also very ambiguous.

I think there was an important message in there somewhere. "We are here. We will be here forever." That was the best line in the entire film, and it was also the very last one. And it's true. Gay people have and always will exist, and straight people will have to deal with that. Anyway, the story itself was a little chaotic and silly. I really respected Young Ho's decision. Gyeong Jun cheated on him, but he was still willing to give up his life for him. Sure, Young Ho wasn't great, but he did a good thing. The acting was good. The kisses were realistic.

Like most others, I watched this for Pete and Kao. All the other storylines weren't worth watching. Anyway, I can't say they had the most healthy relationship. They had a rough start. Pete was quite the asshole. Kao, in turn, was, well, a doormat. Despite all the cliches and fighting, they were cute after they had worked through their indifferences. I don't want to talk much about Mint. I will admit Pete was wrong too, but she outed him, and that's much worse than anything he ever did to her. The one I felt the worst for was Sun. Luckily, we know now that he got get himself a boyfriend too. The best part about this was Pete's dad and Kao's mom. Also, I was pleasantly surprised that Pete said Kao was the FIRST guy he had ever liked instead of saying he was the ONLY guy. It makes a huge difference. They also didn't assign any heteronormative gender roles to either of them. Lastly, I want to mention Kiss The Series. You'll be disappointed if you watch it for Pete and Kao. They weren't significant at all in that. Skimming through the entire series to find BL crumbs is a waste of time.

I only watched the BL episode: Synchronous Kiss. I don't really know how to rate a five-minute video. There was, of course, barely any plot. I didn't know the character's relationship, so I couldn't quite say whether I liked them together or not. At least the kisses weren't stiff at all as they usually are in Japanese BL's. The acting was fine, I guess. Once again, it's hard to say when they only had a few lines each.

I much preferred the idol couple in this episode. They were more playful and cute. Nice.
Grown Up Kiss:
This was basically a whole BL series in ten minutes. Anyway, I didn't particularly like it. I thought the blonde guy was charming and could possibly have great chemistry with a different partner.
Fever Kiss:
The stepbrothers return. I liked them more together in the previous installation. They were still fine in this, though.
Atelier Kiss:
I didn't like this one at all. I hate power dynamics in relationships. It makes me so uncomfortable. Please just give the blonde guy a good partner.
There were kisses.
Happy ending.

I only watched the two BL episodes. What was said for the episode in Dekiai Cinderella mostly applies here too: "I don't really know how to rate a five-minute video. There was, of course, barely any plot. I didn't know the character's relationship, so I couldn't quite say whether I liked them together or not. At least the kisses weren't stiff at all as they usually are in Japanese BL's. The acting was fine, I guess. Once again, it's hard to say when they only had a few lines each. Overall, if you just want to watch two guys make out without any unnecessary plot devices, this is for you." Except I preferred the chemistry these two couples had, hence the higher rating.
There were kisses.

The acting was okay. The chemistry was there. Their last kiss was probably one of the best I've seen so far in a Korean BL. All that said, it was just rather lackluster in terms of the plot. They managed to make a story about vampires tame. Also, don't get me started on the ending. Nothing about that was satisfying. I understood that there was no way for this story to end with both of them alive, but they could at least have let him find the ring. I know this only makes sense if you have watched it, but still. It just ended so abruptly.

I'll list the things I really liked first. They talked a lot about consent, protection, figuring out what works for you in the bedroom, and sexuality. Latte was pansexual. We love to see it. They even portrayed buying sex toys, masturbation, and awkward sex. All very normal things, yet they aren't talked about enough. I loved Latte. He was so patient and sweet. If I did like men, he would be my first choice. We also had great female characters in Lukpeach and Jane. The acting was great. The couples had chemistry. Now, with that out of the way, the negatives. The plot was all over the place. When they talked about the bet at the very end I had completely forgotten that there even was such a thing. The whole thing with Thanwa's ex and Peak and Jane's engagement took over the series. It was a lot of back-and-forth. I didn't like Peak and Almond. Almond was very immature and pretty annoying at times. I just didn't understand why Latte found him so cute. I thought Peak was a coward. He should have spoken to his dad about the engagement as soon as he knew he liked Thanwa. He also turned on Thanwa a lot. He would say the opposite of what he meant all the time. Let it be known that Thanwa wasn't my favorite either. Seng is super cute, but this character was a bit bland. Overall, it was better than a lot of recent series.

It was the usual. There wasn't really anything special about it. It was too short. The ending was lackluster. The characters were confusing. Takashi mostly seemed like a guy not to be trusted, but then sometimes he seemed very caring. I never knew whether he was about to mess with Akihiro's feelings or not. Akihiro also had fleeting feelings. I just didn't know where I had them. The two men who basically only existed to make Akihiro jealous were a totally unnecessary addition. Anyway, the acting was good. They mostly had great chemistry. They also had a rather tasteful sex scene compared to the many that came before. I just thought they kind of lost their chemistry in the final episode. I expected more of them as a couple. Overall, it had potential, but they took it in a direction that simply didn't appeal to me all that much.
There were kisses and a steamy scene.

How did they manage to make THIRTEEN episodes about literally nothing? There was no cohesion, no actual plot, no climax, and no end goal. There was the food element, but OMG, please spare me. I don't know how I made it through, honestly. Some of the episodes were nothing but filler. The acting was fine. The characters were either boring, annoying, or both. Namning was in a league of her own. I don't think there has ever been a more unlikeable character in a BL. She could have gotten Lukchup killed, yet he didn't want to press charges? That's not being forgiving. That's being stupid. She was incredibly dangerous. I didn't like any of the couples. Lukchup's only personality traits were being either shy or scared. I didn't find it cute. I found it nauseating. Ram was not the worst, but he was way too passive. Together they had zero chemistry. Paitong was a handful. Why would you be that possessive of your friend? He really got on my nerves. It took way too long for him to clear the air and chill. I thought Sky and Paitong could have been an interesting coupling, but there was no indication that they liked each other until the very last episode. Super, Kitty, Pangchie, and Titan were all pointless characters to me. They were just a bunch of straight people and then one stereotypical gay person. Also, WTF was up with Jirachin? He purposefully made people believe he was in love with his own BIOLOGICAL brother. I have no words. Yes, some people will find this sweet, but it wasn't for me.

I so desperately want to watch an actually good BL soon. This wasn't it. The plot was one of the dumbest I've ever seen. How can it rain literally every day in THAILAND?! I can't. Then there's the whole soulmate crap. I just don't care. Don't even get me started on the time skip. It's nothing but lazy writing. The last episode was especially stupid. I didn't care for the characters, either. Lomfon and Saengthian were such a pointless couple. I honestly would've preferred it if neither of the characters existed. Lomfon was nothing but a pain in my ass. The main couple meant nothing to me. I guess some people could find some value in this, but I can't. Well, I can say that the acting at least wasn't bad, and neither were the kisses. Anyway, If the ending really suggested a sequel, I don't know what I'll do.

So, I did think there were good moments. The writing was mostly nice. There was chemistry. The acting was good. I really think Sea has improved. I'm just so tired of the predictability of the eleventh episode being a shit show. Not to mention the typical catch them at the last minute in the airport, then realize you were too late, only to find out they never planned to leave anyway. How cliche. I also didn't really like Day all that much. He was so wishy-washy about his feelings the whole way through. Honestly, he was the one who was insensitive towards Mhok. I strongly disliked how they made it seem like it was Mhok who did something wrong to Day all the time. Mhok deserved better. I also think it was disappointing that they had the whole eye donation thing actually happen. Of course, I understand wanting his vision back, but I don't assume it was very realistic. Overall, I don't think it was bad. I just needed more from it. I also needed Day to own up to the way he treated Mhok.

It wasn't perfect, but I actually ended up enjoying it more than I thought I would. I liked the characters. I liked the acting. The main couple had good chemistry. The plot was nothing new, but it was better than some high school drama shit. Sometimes, it was choppy, and the scenes seemed off. The second couple also disappointed me. Thaenthai's character didn't make much sense to me at times. He really was horrible in the first half. It was also weird how they refused to let them have a proper kiss. I want to end on a good note and say how happy I am to see so many BL's, especially Thai BL's, push for same-sex marriage to be legalized.

I really did not get along with Akira, but I loved Yuuki. I mean, I didn't consistently dislike Akira, but he treated Yuuki so wrong at times. They were so good together, and they had a lot of chemistry. Akira was just too selfish. He, at one point, chose to live safe but unhappily. He totally disregarded Yuuki's feelings and his own feelings too. He also fucked over Honoka and wasted her time. Both Honoka and Yuuki deserved better. In the end, I hoped they wouldn't get back together. I had hoped Yuuki would have respected himself and found someone that would appreciate him to the fullest. Akira's reason for breaking up with him was so stupid. I almost completely stopped caring about him. Another thing was how Akira never asked for permission from Yuuki to kiss him, at least at the start. Overall, he didn't seem to realize/care how Yuuki felt. I loved Yuuki's mom, Akira's sister, and Akira's dad, though.

Something about this didn't sit right with me. First of all, the timeline was very confusing to me. When Shou said he had seen Light in the ally, did he mean before what happened with the man who beat Light? I mean, I don't know. The BDSM part only happened at the very start and was never brought up again. So I guess it was the client's kink and not Light's? Light's stepdad got away with his crimes, I guess? The part where Light tried to explain to Shou that he had been assaulted was heartbreaking and upsetting. Shou's reaction was horrible. Unfortunately, I think a lot of people assume their partners cheated even though they were assaulted. Shou definitely did just that. So, to me, he didn't deserve Light. I was proud of Light for reporting the assault, though. Also, Shou saying that Light was his, even if it wasn't in an aggressive manner, disgusted me. I don't think the whole possessing someone is cute. He's a person, not an object. Light already had quite apparent attachment issues and depended too much on Shou. That didn't seem healthy to me. People who have gone through so much trauma need to seek help before they get into a relationship. He was vulnerable, and anyone could take advantage of that. Anyway, The acting was okay. The intimate scenes were also okay. The message was off, though.
There were kisses and steamy scenes.

If So Hee hadn't been such a big part of the series, I probably would have rated it even higher. Although she somewhat had her redemption, I'm still fed up with "evil" female characters. Anyway, I loved the way they handled the issues the characters went through. They all had such amazing character development. Da On became his own person and not just a doormat. Tae Kyung learned the value of friendship and love. Shin Woo learned how to express his emotions better. Shin Woo was a little bit confusing at first, but he ended up being so loveable. He honestly deserved the world. You could really tell how much he loved Tae Kyung so selflessly. I was happy to see that they loved each other openly as well. Neither of them was ashamed. I was also happily surprised to see they actually kissed. The kisses weren't bad either. They were somewhere in between Color Rush and To My Star. So not under-whelming nor amazing. I will definitely re-watch this now that all the episodes are out. I also desperately want a second season because we didn't get enough of Shin Woo and Tae Kyung together. I guess they did say this was the story of Tae Kyung's first love and not his current one, though. The acting was pretty good. It wasn't mind-blowing, but that wasn't really required for these particular roles anyway. Lastly, I have to say I was left with quite a few questions. Mostly about Shin Woo. Like Shin Woo's past and him being bullied? Also, I wonder how Tae Kyung really felt about Da On. He didn't really give him closure.

It was refreshing to have a more masculine character be openly gay and a more feminine character be closeted. BL's are mostly portrayed the other way around. There were so many little things that made this extra special, in my opinion. I particularly enjoyed the scene where Karl just let go and was at peace with himself, even if it was just for a moment. They had great chemistry. It took a while for them to get together, and even at the very end, Karl still hadn't fully accepted himself, sadly.

Zi Yan's actions were quite inconsistent. Sometimes he did and said sweet things, and other times he was very distant and indifferent. Why did he feel the need to pretend that he wasn't as into Mai Ding as he was? He had no problem gushing over him to his friend. That April Fool's Day joke was not funny at all. I would have been enraged if he did that to me, but Mai Ding was over it in a millisecond. It just served no purpose other than making Mai Ding miserable. Zi Yan kept saying he didn't want to hurt Mai Ding, but that "prank" sure did, though. Pranks are supposed to be funny. What he did was just cruel. Zi Yan's sister was disgusting. She tried to rape Mai Ding in an attempt to make him stop liking her brother, I guess? Zi Yan stopped her. He then proceeded to make fun of Mai Ding for almost getting raped by a woman. He called him weak and such. Men almost getting raped is so funny, apparently. Mai Ding's parents tried to force him into getting married and making grandchildren. Reproduction and letting the family name live on are not the sole reasons why someone should have kids. They also glossed over Mai Ding possibly getting abused by his mom. All that said, Mai Ding and Zi Yan's relationship felt natural most of the time. They had great kisses and chemistry. The pacing was a little off at times, though.

I don't know. It was boring at times, but I didn't dislike it. I did feel like the last two episodes felt different. They weren't as silly as the rest. The last episode was mostly underwhelming. The beach scenes, except for the handholding one, were rather a waste of time. Also, the way Nont got constantly stood up. Honestly, it broke my heart. Kaitoon came off as this perfect and sweet being, but him treating Nont like that proved otherwise. Valen was immature and a self-proclaimed troublemaker. I mean, the first time we met him, he was threatening Kaitoon with a knife. I'm not sure why Kaitoon would choose him over Nont. Well, Valen was perhaps a bit more exciting. King and Peat's story felt misplaced. They had chemistry for sure, but we weren't given enough reason to care about them. I hope they weren't insinuating that King and Ice would become a thing. Not only were King and Peat finally communicating, but Peat was also going to move back in. Not to mention the actor playing Ice is FOURTEEN. No, thank you. The actor playing King is twenty-one. Please, don't make it weird. Anyway, I think if they really wanted to make this good, it could be. The acting was pretty good, and, as I mentioned, the couples had chemistry.

Well then. What a waste of time. All the couples went to shit. I started not caring for any of the characters. Nont was the only one who deserved better. He was so nice till the very end. Valen was more unlikable this time around. He was too possessive and irrational. He also used Panggo. Kaitoon sucked too. He really recreated the date Valen took him on but with Nont. What did he do then? Reject Nont. Girl. Peat and King were a mess. Just why? I genuinely think they insinuated that King and Ice would get together. The new couple was pointless. There was no conclusion. Frankly, I have no idea why they thought that was necessary. The ending was confusing. I'm almost scared to say that they seem to be planning another season. There was only one moment where I actually liked the acting. It was when King discovered what Peat had been up to.

I have no idea what to say about this. It was so chaotic. It made no sense to me. It was intense, yet somehow I was bored. It was very erotic, and there was actual nudity multiple times. Basically, I didn't enjoy it.
There were kisses and sex scenes.
Open ending.
Would I recommend it to a BL fan: No.

Kengkla and Technic were gross. Technic helped Kengkla rape Techno. The whole thing was treated as a joke. Kengkla even said that Techno took advantage of HIM. Most of Tin and Can's kisses were non-consensual. Tin was very rude. His situation did not excuse his behavior. Can saying being gay was disgusting made no sense. He confused me. Tin and Can's ending sucked, but it did make sense. Tum forced himself on Tar. That killed any wish I had of them getting together. Tum was just an asshole. I thought Pond was a good friend, but he was too perverted. He also suggested that Ae should take advantage of Pete. That was probably a joke, though. Chompoo's entire personality was falling for a guy she just met. Lemon was yet another shipper in a BL that I didn't need. Women in BL's truly are written horribly. I liked how honest Ae was, but he needed to understand that not everyone was like him. Pete had no right to push Ae to be with Chompoo. Ae told Pete that he didn't like her like that. Pete tried brainwashing Ae into thinking he should be with a girl. Ae and Pete mostly communicated well. When they fought, they made up fairly quickly. Ae was too possessive/jealous. Their chemistry was great at first, but it fizzled out. The locker scene was dubious. If Pete had kept saying he didn't want to do it, would Ae have stopped? I liked that Pete was tall and muscular, yet he was the feminine one. They also acknowledged that bisexuals exist. The acting was okay.
There were kisses and steamy scenes.

This was even worse than the first season. The storyline was so messed up, nothing made sense. Tin and Can had no chemistry whatsoever. The whole part about Ae and Pete was so tiring and unnecessary. Techno ended up "falling" for Kengkla, even though he had been taken advantage of by him. Why? Just why? The kisses between Tin and Can were some of the most awkward I have ever seen. It looked like Can would have rather died. Tum and Tar's part might as well have not been a thing, and that saddens me to say because I was excited to see more of Earth. The only couple I liked and stayed for was Tul and Gonhin. And even that couple had some rather unfortunate qualities.
There were kisses.
Happy ending.

When I watched episodes three and four, the subtitles didn't work. So, I'm not really sure what happened. The teacher just gave away his kidney to a random student? Maybe he was just nice, but to me, it was weird. I assume they got together in the end. It was very rushed, though. This was generally a weak series. Nothing about it was interesting.
No kiss.
Happy ending.

Meh. It was cliche and predictable. The reveal of the stalker was anti-climactic at best. There was more of a focus on Ji Woo's crush on Yu Na than his eventual crush on Ro A. It was super rushed. The last episode was infuriating. Ro A acted so out of character. Frankly, he was an ass toward Ji Woo. We could have gotten such cute moments, but instead, they wanted us to suffer until the very last minute. Hyun Jun was the best part of this. He is a great actor. Tae Hwan was quite wooden, in my opinion. I didn't feel much chemistry, either. The kiss was stiiiiiff. Yu Na was great too. I honestly thought she deserved Ji Woo more than Ro A. Lastly, the teacher and student straight couple was such a waste of the limited time there was for Ji Woo and Ro A's relationship to develop properly. It was also just gross.
There was a kiss.
The story continues in Love Class Season 2.
