Dar en el Clavo (2022)

Un plaisir non coupable avec un fort pouvoir de communication

Un podcast sur le sexe dirigé par deux femmes dans la trentaine ? C'est le topo de Hit the Spot et il y parvient brillamment.

Le plaisir féminin est un sujet parfois sensible, notamment dans des pays encore très conservateurs et traditionnels. La femme et le plaisir ne sont pas franchement des sujets populaires et pourtant ! Hit the Spot joue des coudes et arrive à transmettre suffisamment pour délier quelques pensées et déculpabiliser des femmes qui pourraient se sentir mal à l'idée de vouloir expérimenter de nouvelles choses ou de simplement ressentir du plaisir.

On fait la rencontre de Hee Jae (interprétée par Ahn Hee Yeon) et Mi Na (incarnée par Bae Woo Hee) qui se retrouvent responsables de l'animation d'un podcast sur le sexe. Bien que peu motivées au départ, l'idée d'avoir un mois de congés payés vont les pousser à accepter et elles vont y trouver peut-être un peu plus que ce qu'elles cherchaient, notamment Hee Jae.

Hee Jae est en couple depuis cinq ans avec Hyeon Woo (joué par Choi Woong). Un imbécile égoïste et médisant qui possède un fil de pensées pas si unique : s'il aime alors sa partenaire aussi. Que ce soit au lit ou ailleurs. Pourtant, dès la première émission du podcast, Hee Jae va remettre en question sa vie intime avec Hyeon Woo. Tandis qu'elle tente d'aborder le sujet avec douceur, Hyeon Woo prend la mouche et l'accuse d'être responsable, que si elle n'a pas d'orgasme depuis cinq ans alors c'est sa faute à elle. Dans une société patriarcale, cela ne surprend pas qu'un homme refuse de croire que sa partenaire ne ressent pas de plaisir particulier. Il y a une forme d'ego assez sensible. Ainsi, sans être frileux, le drama aborde dès son premier épisode la question des jouets sexuels et de l'orgasme.

Ce n'est pas difficile de s'attacher ou soutenir Hee Jae dans ses choix. Et ça se ressent que plus encore avec l'arrivée du magnifique Kang In Chan (interprété par Park Sun Ho), un auteur populaire en sexologie. Plutôt que de rendre l'attraction immédiate, Yoon Ra Young laisse les deux protagonistes se rapprocher avec les questions et les besoins de Hee Jae. In Chan est un personnage qui fait palpiter les cœurs. Mon cœur a loupé quelques battements sur certaines scènes ahah.

Hee Jae et In Chan forment un duo brûlant à l'écran, tandis qu'ils explorent chacun des aspects différents dans leur relation jusqu'au moment où leur relation connaît un chamboulement un peu décevant. Si le choix de Hee Jae de prendre du temps pour elle est louable (et entièrement mérité), c'est sur la durée que ça reste déroutant. Elle semblait refuser de faire quoique ce soit après cinq années de relation, on nous la montre ensuite en vacances sur un mois et soudain, In Chan revient avec son magnifique et parfait sourire et la situation se résolve d'un coup, dommage.

De l'autre côté, nous avons Mi Na qui est l'opposée de Hee Jae. Elle aime les relations purement charnelles, les sentiments restent dehors. La façon dont elle gère sa vie est amusante et pleinement assumée. On aime cette femme même sans s'y identifier. Mais derrière son air de femme fatale, on découvre aussi une femme fragile qui connaît un passé douloureux. Cela explique alors ses envies de sexe, mais les problèmes en moins. Jusqu'à l'arrivée de Woo Jae (incarné par Choi Kwang Roy), un homme qui semble bourru, mais sexy comme le diable. Leur relation est à la fois amusante et tendre. Mi Na est une femme touchante qui connaît une part de vulnérabilité et qui décide de l'assumer, ce qui la rend que plus forte à mes yeux.

C'est un drama excellent qui traite de sujets tabous dans certains pays. Un beau message pour les femmes qui ne devraient pas avoir peur d'assumer leur désir ou de ressentir des envies (ou au contraire ne pas avoir envie). Au milieu d'une amitié brillante et solidaire avec des relations intéressantes. J'espère que nous aurons plus de dramas comme celui-ci, abordant fièrement des thématiques fortes qui, aujourd'hui, ne devraient plus faire culpabiliser quiconque.

All women over 18 need to watch this

Before I begin I want to make one thing clear: Anyone saying ‘if the roles were reversed’ and judging the drama and script on that, are absolutely assuming that men and women are perceived equally when it comes to sex and that women experience sexual pleasure and romantic intimacy in EXACTLY the same way as men do. We do not have that pleasure unfortunately and as a woman in my late 20s I stand by this and my experience. This review is based on this lens.

Amazing drama, especially for women. Even those with sexual experience will learn something from this. Most important of all is self worth and understanding sexual desire is normal. This drama has reminded me that the uneven playing field doesn’t matter and I don’t need to settle, I (and everyone) deserve to feel everything to the fullest. Intimacy, pleasure and happiness. It’s amazing to see this represented so beautifully on screen. I hope many women watch this and understand the lessons it’s teaching us.

Short, fun and SEXY - A different kind of K-drama (that I welcome)

A Korean drama about finding the mysterious G-spot, sexual satisfaction, masturbation, sexual partners/friends with benefits is hard to come by. Many enjoy K-dramas because they are ‘clean’ compared to Western television. However, what if such a drama is needed for the local Korean audience? It’s not like Korean movies are chaste anyway. So, if the above-mentioned topics make you feel uncomfortable, please do not watch this drama. This is definitely not for you. Please check the tags.

But if you enjoy these more ‘mature’ topics being shown and talked about openly without judgment via stories of our two female leads and their podcast, then this is a fun drama. But this drama is so much more than just sex. It’s about knowing who you are, what you want and how to get that. It’s also a story about healing, hidden in between all the sex talk.

And yes, there’s plenty of sexual content especially when you first hit the “play” button in Episode 1. So be careful where and who you are watching this with. Some scenes are shot more beautifully than others. I don't think the sex scenes are excessive (but you might), but there’s enough to make you wonder if you are watching a K-drama. However, I most appreciate the frank and open communication about these sexual topics. Most of the characters are non-judgmental, and they bring up interesting facts and opinions.

I like the development of the main romance between Son Hee Jae (FL) and writer In Chan (ML). Within 8 short episodes, I can see how they start from strangers to being more than that. Actress Ahn Hee Yeon played an adorable lead and I don’t find her annoying at all. Actor Park Sun Ho, though handsome and I love his smiles, could seem a little emotionless at times.

The romance between Lee Mi Na (FL) and Doctor Woo Jae (ML) is a little too fast and furious for me. They are a very good-looking pair and they do have great chemistry. I would have loved to see more of their interaction before everything wraps up in episode 7.

The sismance is great. I love their open and uncensored conversations, and their little trip to a specialty store. It’s not often that we have long scenes at these specialty stores in any Asian drama.

This is a fun short watch for me. It’s not a perfect drama, but it’s perfect for me at this moment. It hits just the right spot. ? If you like this, you might also like the Japanese teen drama “17.3 About a Sex”, which is a lot cleaner and very PG-13.

Kdrama about real relationships, sex and intimacy but from the women's perspective

This is a super short but intense drama.

It's obviously extremely polemic because of the high explicit sexual content in it. Im from Spain and I come from a culture, where is completely natural to be open about sex and skinship and there's no taboo or judgement for it, so I'm used to this kind of content but it's shocking being a fan of kdrama and knowing how different it is over there to see such series.

I have to say everything related to sex it's written and done with such good taste, it's beautifully produced and never tacky or obscene. It's also a very refreshing take because it's written from the women's point of view and they will talk without taboos about many many problems women face trying to face their own sexuality in a close minded society like in South Korea.

I loved how whoever watches this show will learn a lot about how sex is supposed to be and feel and whether it's with a partner or by yourself. Every woman has the right of deciding whats best for them.

There's 4 leads in this drama, the two women as leads and the males as their counterparts.

The two friends have and absolute amazing chemistry and it's so much fun being such opposite characters getting along so well and being family to each other. Just loyalty, support and love, such a wonderful friendship without judgement whatsoever.

Each of them has a storyline with a different male and here's where I think the drama was too short. The main story was Hani's and was carefully developed and you could see the couple's evolution very clearly, it felt real. Their chemistry was no joke as well.

The second storyline was the one with Lee Mi Na and even though I absolutely loved her character and her performance, the relationship with the 2nd male lead was rushed, underdeveloped and very predictable. I wished they would have dedicated the same time for her storyline ( which included a past trauma) and it was extremely interesting, but felt to me like wasted potential.

Overall its such a great watch, very enjoyable and love the sex theme! The actors are incredibly attractive as well which always helps!

I hope this is the first of many kdramas with such open production!

Saucy Content 18+ and Unorthodox Love Views

Totally unexpected for a short drama (just 8 episodes of 30mins+ each) to include so many 18+ scenes but it’s done accordingly to the flow of the storyline…sorta combination of I Need Romance + Nevertheless kinda scenes.

The storyline revolving 2 completely different besties with different love & sex views as it interestingly unfolds…Like how the directing for a change is about female viewpoint of how sex is for them which is rare as generally most production works are all about what men thinks.

This drama shows how Korean production house is really moving ahead among most Asian countries with their western-worlds-style of explicit scenes in love making and open minded discussion of sex in an educational way. At one point, I thought i’ve clicked into American’s Sex & The City…pls be forewarned to ensure no one is peeping into your device screen and avoid open audio aloud as there’s quite some handful steamy scenes with heavy breathing implying what you might not want others to misunderstand it’s a porn…it’s NOT a porn really (okay selectively maybe a soft one…lol..but there’s proper meaningful story to it!)

Some may not like how love making is muddled together with pure FWB sex making but it just shows how this can cause people to be too involved until the extent of finding love when least expected to (okay…we aren’t encouraging anyone to jump into bed just to see if both is a good match in this area! But to a certain extent don’t you think if cannot find the urge to do *it with the other person, how’s the ‘love’ going to be? Ofc, this storyline isn’t focusing on the concept of being happy in sexless love yea…lol) So if this is the question in anyone’s mind, then this drama is a good watch! ^^ At some point I thot the sex toys thingy can be educational for society as well…I mean this isn’t in any school syllabus but it’s necessary for human needs to know right…

Acting isn’t all superb but it’s good enough to carry the storyline and shoutout to Bae Woo Hee as to me her acting is convincingly of the character and yet isn’t giving a feeling of slutty which isn’t easy bcos any slightest wrong micro expression can misled audience to dislike her character entirely. But ofc, the good background setting abt her ex-bf being a total jerk helps to craft her character into someone we can vouch for in hope for her to somehow get true love. Both guys main lead isn’t 100% eye candy, hence at some point their acting does takes the lead…and appreciate how the script isn’t throwing in standard bias of how people who sleeps around are only carefree and freeloaders hence one of the main male lead is a doctor and the other is a prominent author which is more realistic how society changes is happening nowadays.

Music wasn’t something that catches me in here…but it does play at the right time to keep up with the mood of the storyline. Won’t invest much thots on that though.

In a nutshell, this is a feel good and fun watch…

This was Fantastic!!!!

I loved this!!! It's Hilarious, it's Tastefully Sexy, it's great!!! I watched this with my sister for a girls night. We couldn't stop laughing and cracking up, we also squealed and raved! The two girls in this show did a fantastic job, you feel their bond. True friendship, real relationship problems and yes Sex!!!! No one every wants to have these conversations but they are really so important! Not only is this about being okay with your own body and your own desires but it was also about being safe and how important communication is. This show is so slept on! Yes their were risky scene's but they were done tastefully, and the romance in this was so sweet! 10/10 I highly recommend!

How Two Good Friends Differ in Their Approach to Achieving Orgasm

Hit the Spot is a fantastic series about female sexuality.
It is blunt, intelligently written, perfectly acted, and quite sexually explicit.

For those who find it uncomfortable to watch open sex, I would not recommend it but for those who are not, there are a lot of important lessons to be learned, for both sexes.

The story is about two close female friends, Hee Jae and Mi Na, and how they approach their quest for sexual satisfaction.

Hee Jae has been in a 5-year relationship with someone who she feels satisfies only himself sexually.
She has not experienced orgasm.

At the recommendation of her friend Mi Na, Hee Jae tries a variety of sexual toys to sexually satisfy herself. The toys work but she wants to experience orgasm with a man.

She goes on a hot pursuit to find a man, Kang In Chan.

Mi Na, on the other hand, makes it clear to her sexual partners that she is not interested in a relationship but only for sexual satisfaction.

Hee Jae repeatedly pressures co-worker In Chan to have sex – “When?” “Where?” “How soon?” “How often” she asks him.

Unlike her friend Mi Na, she never makes it crystal clear why she is pursuing him. She finally gets her reward and baths in her newly found orgasms with In Chan.

In Chan tells Mi Na that he loves her – with that, she drops him like a hot potato.

In my opinion, there is no question that Hee Jae has used In Chan repeatedly for her satisfaction –

He has now become her TOY BOY.

Mi Na, on the other hand, finds the right person Cha Woo Jae, and expresses her love for him, finding both sexual satisfaction and a good loving partnership.

Mi Na expresses her desires above board while Hee Jae hides her reason and takes advantage of In Chan.

Note: there are no interrupting phone calls or people bursting in the door! Enjoy every minute of this wonderful series!

A hot romance!!!

Glad I discovered this a few days before the first episodes were released on Viki. A series out of the ordinary, not the typical romance and love that you often see. With it, a lot is about romance on a completely different level.
A series that talks openly about sexual counseling. Can say it's more some kind of foreplay. This goes more in depth and is more intimate. Which makes it stand out even more visually. For me it has been very educational. If you like Love and leashes, this one is a step further with no BSDM content. There will be some talk about sex toys and such as well. Just like Love and leashes and partly the love relationship in The law cafe, it is also about consent.
To talk about the roles and characters. So we start from the relationships of two girls. One has a long-term relationship that has its ups and downs. The other girl seeks more to be satisfied in her own way with everyone she meets. Their boss is very open about letting them do the podcast their way with a free hand at the book publisher they work for.
Would like to say that it is very mature and unexpected. It takes relationships to a different level than what you usually see. Funny and very touching at times. Is about both parties in the relationship being satisfied. It usually speaks from a woman's perspective in the relationship.
Love the romance between both couples. It's not just the naked that you get to see, but that it should be cute and relatable. Both struggle with their self-image and self-esteem, eventually realizing that there is more to it than just pleasures.
Incredibly different and very good. However, I think that it is a series that is not suitable for everyone. For anyone curious, I would recommend this one. Among 2022's card series, this is one of my favorites. Very interesting!!!!

Spicy

Wow. If you are looking for an adult/matured drama with intense spicy and sexy time then this drama is definitely for you.
None of that I’m almost 30yr old characters who look scandalized/terrified with hand grazes/touches and accidental body contact and also the I have never touched the hands of the opposite sex much less kissed any before but I am also 30yrs old unrealistic BS.
It was short and could have done with a longer run time and few more episodes but I will take what we got.
It highlighted real struggles that a lot of women even men go through and I was very happy about the FLs decision. I supported her 100%.
Just because a guy is “good” and likes a girl doesn’t automatically mean she must reciprocate those feelings whether she wants to or not or even ready for it. Bashing her and calling her names was just crazy and so misogynistic.

Premetto che non sono un amante del genere eros ma ho voluto cmq provare questo drama che un po' lo richiama. Le premesse erano davvero interessanti, soprattutto per l'argomento protagonista ovvero mettere al primo posto o cmq elevare il piacere sessuale delle donne ad un altro livello. Ho trovato interessanti le protagoniste, l'una l'opposto dell'altra in ogni cosa e principalmente in questa: una legata al fidanzato con cui non prova piacere da cinque anni, l'altra che fa del sesso il proprio passatempo e non cerca una relazione stabile. Mi sono piaciute però fino ad un certo punto, un po' come il drama stesso. Secondo me non riesce ad essere convincente fino i fondo perchè cmq sul finale sembra sempre divergere verso quella mentalità chiusa coreana, o cmq fa retrocedere le protagoniste (una soprattutto) di tanti passi indietro quanti ne avevano fatti in avanti. Nel complesso non è una brutta opera ma non mi ha convinta del tutto. Cmq carina da vedere e interessante sotto certi aspetti. Ah, cercate di guardarlo in casa o cmq con cuffie perchè le scene esplicite ci sono e pure tutti i versi.

What a rare gem

I didn’t know anything about this drama, but the trailer seemed really steamy and it was already late at night and I was in bed with husband, so I thought what the heck? Could it be another version of Nevertheless? This is so much better.

A mini-drama about being in relationships and what it means to be in a healthy relationship, but not to be confused to a typical or abnormal relationship. Meaning, all of us have different forms of preferences and that is okay.

I was really surprised to find this kind of K drama, I was wondering if I was watching something American. There are explicit scenes of people having sex and nudity, so go with that in mind. Even though the rating is for adults, I really enjoyed the main story about the two women.

They are two best friends who couldn’t be more opposite. One is very open about sex and the other is in a long term relationship with a jerk of a boyfriend. I liked each person’s storyline and I liked how different they were.

The pacing and timing of the show is just right at 30 mins each and only 8 episodes. I know it’s fairly short, but you really don’t want to watch an hour’s worth of people doing it right?

It’s also an informative show, that talks about various issues that surround sex and how people handle them differently. All and all, a very adult show with adult themes, but a good story that surrounds the explicit rating. It’s worth watching if you are comfortable with that.

wow

it's not just a soft porn as it's said in comments.....
1.put urself first
2. communication is the key
3.life goes on. having a break up, break down won't last forever there's a way out of it
4.don't hesitate and give it a chance!
5.women need and want sex as much as men do
6.don't lower ur standers

personally
8 episodes is enough but needed more sex scenes between the leads i'll never be tired of watching them
sex without love isn't intimated and i felt the chemistry between both leads and it turned me on! i felt alive lol it's been awhile since I've felt horny
every kdrama i watched so far they wear like celebrities even poor characters but in this drama they seemed... normal people. (i'm not so sure if they're low on budget lol)
i liked that everybody is mature and not the typical shy awkward fl who doesn't have a personality
