This was an amazing drama. I literally just finish watching the last episode and I swear I was bawling my eyes out like a little baby...it was not a pretty sight. The cast were great, they all did a brilliant job.

As much as I loved the show I was not happy with the ending, I felt everything was packed into one episode.....I'm probably just been a greedy viewer but I need some type of closure, and I think the only way is to have a season 2. Like they're so many questions that needs to be answered...like did 21st century Hae-Soo go back to her normal life?...what happened after she left the museum?...what actually did happen to the Goryeo era Hae-Soo when 21st century Hae-Soo took over her body?....So many questions and I think they can only be answered by having another season. Which is probably never gonna happen.

I really hope they do end up having another season because when you think about it, the other versions had a sequel.

This was such a brilliant watch.

A realistic look of queer couples without fetishisation. Loved it! We need more of this….South Korean & many conservative countries need more of this…..Having this would educate so many people & make them realise queer people exist too and are like everyone else.

Yon Tae-yun’s story was definitely the highlight for me. I couldn’t help but be happy for him…..Literally bawled my eyes out. I’m so glad he had such a supportive girlfriend (Min-Jun) and mum all through the process. It couldn’t have been easy.

I’m happy for the other couples too. I really do hope they all have a happy life, even if their relationship does not work out.

Had so much potential.

This became very painful to watch. Partly because of poor Chan-kyu..he was the most genuine out of all of them and they were all blind to it. It was so frustrating to watch. He seemed like such a sweet guy. I hope he meets/has met a much better partner that would appreciate him after this.

 I pretty much skipped majority of the last few episodes just because of how frustrated I was for him. I hope the next few seasons are much better.

Overall though it’s nice to see a queer reality show from SK. Was never on my bingo list. Hopefully this opens the door for many more. And starts a positive conversation in their society.

Oh dear….

I have so much to say about this but I truly do not know how to put my thoughts into words without it becoming a tangent so I’m gonna try my best.

Someone described it has a proper queer movie & I could not agree more! It had everything you could ask for…passion..angst…EVERYTHING!

I started off the movie gutted I hadn’t watch it a lot sooner…if only I had remembered why I initially didn’t watch it the first time it was on my radar…If only.

It’s honestly been a while since a queer movie moved me - or got a reaction this did out of me…I literally bawled my eyes out (non stop) in the remaining half of the movie.

I do have to say I went in blind not fully reading the synopsis due to the fact that many synopsis on here tend to contain spoilers, then about 5 minutes in I thought to come back and read it properly. While the thought of something tragic happening did cross my mind. I was not expecting what I got cause I thought ‘gone are the days of queer cinema with sad endings’…..How naive I was.

Lastly, I know this is fictional - but, Kosuke was definitely a godsend to that family and I could not help but hurt for him.

The cast did a fantastic job portraying these nuance characters. We need more of this in Asian queer cinema…of course with more happy endings.

A ‘meh’ from me

I was hoping I would love this but I truly struggled. I’m not one to skip scenes but towards the end I couldn’t help but do so.

And to be honest, I was not expecting much as I tend to avoid watching pre 2020 Thai BLs cause I remember how much I struggled with them back then.

But watching ‘Not me’ prior to this gave me a big push cause I wanted to see ‘Off & Gun’ in something else.

While I wouldn’t recommend this, it’s not a full right off. It’s more of a reminder for me to not bother with older Thai BLs.

The scenes with the main couples were great though. They did a good job with what they had. And Gun is a fantastic actor per usual. He has a way of showing emotions in a way many actors in this genre aren’t able to.

This was FANTASTIC! We need more of this!

This was absolutely brilliant! I’m surprised it was never on my radar. And the message behind it is so good too. What a find this was….Loved every single minute. And the cast did a fantastic job! The actor who played Black & White did a terrific job. I definitely need to check out his other stuff.

I’m contemplating watching the other drama he did with the actor who played Sean, but the reviews are putting me off, cause I can’t stand storyline with toxic beginnings. But they had such a fantastic chemistry that I’m willing to watch it just for them. Hope they get to do more projects.

Also the soundtrack to this was so good. Hats off to whoever was in charge of that, cause I was Shazamming pretty much every new song that came on.

Way better than I expected!

This was way better than I expected! I should have watched it a lot sooner….while the ending felt anticlimactic, I still deeply enjoyed it. It kept me at the edge of my seat, which is pretty rare in these genre. And the actors did a brilliant job with their role.. it also had better acting than some Thai series I’ve seen. Bravo!

I noticed that the end scene left the door open for a sequel with the cast from ‘Manner of Death’. It would be fun to see the cast from both show in a series. But I recently discovered this might not happen due to one of the actors retirement. So we can only hope.
