Oh…yet another factor…the 2024 slug invasion has began…
Unknown (2024)
This was truly a shock that popped on my YouTube feed. It is a Taiwanese BL drama that’s based mostly on a Priest novel. At 12 episodes and 1 episode per week, this can take some time to fully air. I used to be hesitant to start out due to the timing, as a result of as everybody is aware of, I’ve no endurance ready for exhibits. Nonetheless, I used to be skipping between exhibits anyway, so I made a decision to start out it. With just one episode in, I believe this can be a a lot better begin of a BL story than the opposite Taiwanese BL dramas which were airing recently.
The story is about Wei Qian and his organic youthful sister and an “adopted” youthful brother whom he “picked” up from the streets. Wei Qian and his sister “misplaced” their dad and mom younger and have been left to fend for themselves. Wei Qian, with the intention to survive, joined an area gang and labored to supply for him and his youthful sister. On his manner dwelling in the future, he ran right into a youthful boy, sleeping in an alley manner. Being the individual that he’s, Wei Qian left some meals for the homeless boy, and continued to take action from that day on. Lastly, in the future, Wei Qian invited the youthful boy dwelling to dwell with them.
This youthful boy is known as Wei Zhi Yuan.
Into this household is Wei Qian’s finest buddy, San Pang, who helps the household of youngsters out with what he and his dad and mom accomplish. All the first episode is on how this household grew to become a household, and the way Wei Qian lastly bought of the gang and began to maneuver his life in the fitting path.
I’ve learn the overview for this novel, and nearly everybody mentioned that the story, whereas a BL novel, was targeted on the thought and definition of a household. And the primary episode actually bought this theme throughout. I eagerly await for the remainder of the collection.
Love for Love’s Sake
This truly got here out in January, however I did not discover the time to look at it till lately. And I used to be in a position to catch all 8 episodes and binged by means of them in a day.
The story truly begins moderately mysteriously, with Tae Myung Ha speaking to a senior of his and his novel. Tae Myung Ha complains that the e book did not deal with Cha Yeo Woon very pretty or very effectively, and that of all of the characters who deserves a contented ending, it was Yeo Woon.
The subsequent factor he is aware of, he wakes up as his 19 12 months outdated self (10 years up to now) inside this novel the place his final mission is to make “Cha Yeo Woon joyful”, and his failure to take action throughout the prescribed time restrict will result in his demise.
Cha Yeo Woon is a younger man who had gone by means of very comparable conditions as Tae Myung Ha rising up, having been deserted by a mum or dad and dwelling together with his grandmother. His expertise is in observe and discipline, however his “life” scenario began to deliver extra stress into his highschool years.
Into this group comes Cheon Sang Received, a boy on the opposite finish of the wealth spectrum who finds himself falling for Tae Myung Ha. And there’s the shy and bullied Ahn Kyung Hoon, who turns into the hyperlink.
The story was fairly good, principally targeted on friendship and the influences that they’ll make in a single individual’s life. However the precise theme of this story was for one to like oneself with the intention to love another person. Tae Myung Ha was a mirror of himself in Cha Yeo Woon. It was very candy, and it has some very sound recommendation. I actually loved this, and the ending left a really nice feeling.
Marriage ceremony Not possible
Since we left with a Korean drama let’s proceed with one other one! This simply got here up on Viki about just a little over per week in the past. And I began this for Moon Sang Min, whom I actually preferred in The Queen’s Umbrella. Up to now, I’ve solely just a little bit into episode 2. As with different Korean dramas, every episode is about an hour, 12 complete, and a pair of episodes per week.
That is extra of a romantic comedy, no less than that is the way it’s beginning out, between Na Ah Jung, Lee Do Han, and Do Ha’s youthful brother Ji Han. Our FL, Ah Jung, is a struggling actress who may be very devoted to attempting to get a break in her profession. Her finest buddy is Do Han, whom she has no thought is the inheritor to a really rich household. Do Han was referred to as again to Korea by his grandfather to finish a wedding alliance, with the intention to take over the corporate. The explanation why he wants this marriage? As a result of each Do Han and Ji Han are illegitimate. Their mom is their grandfather’s daughter. Nonetheless, the wedding needs to be on Do Han for cause I suppose we are going to discover out later.
Ji Han is all supportive of his older brother’s marriage to Yoon Chae Received, as a result of he has ambitions to assist his brother to take over the corporate away from his cousins. Whereas his older brother may care much less and has no want to take over the corporate. However Ji Han can solely depend on him as a result of his grandfather apparently is not going to enable Ji Han to be the inheritor.
There is only one little drawback…Do Han has no want to marry…a girl. And his sexual orientation is one thing that solely Ah Jung is aware of. Being pressured to marry, Do Han “proposes” to Ah Jung, saying that she is going to get to star on the function of a lifetime, she would be the lead, and it is a job that might want to final 3 years.
Let’s examine how this story goes. Ah Jung who’s attempting to guard her finest buddy. Do Han who’s looking for a manner round having to marry somebody. And Ji Han who’s hell bent on getting his brother to marry the “proper” lady so he can inherit. This can be a attention-grabbing arrange, and I moderately just like the goofiness of Ah Jung and Do Han when they’re collectively. Crossing my fingers.
White Cat Legend
Nobody must be stunned that I began this… It is bought Ding Yu Xi in a interval crime fixing drama. All episodes have dropped however I’ve solely on episode 6.
The story begins with Chen Shi, who’s new on the town, and finds himself in the course of an investigation assisted by a cat who can write. Sadly, Chen Shi cannot learn (that was a humorous one, when the cat rolled his eyes). This “investigational” unit is headed by Shangguan Qin, who has a bunch of not so nice male subordinates. They every of a quark that defines their character.
Chen Shi will get “accused” of being the perp and is thrown in jail. When a collection of occasions occurred that triggered the “cat” to flee, the cat takes Chen Shi with him. The “cat” seems to be Li Bing, the son of the final head inspector who “disappeared” years in the past accompanying his father’s coffin.
The irony of this complete factor is that the investigation retains saying there’s not supernatural causes when Li Bing is “supernatural” since he can flip right into a cat!
The primary 6 episodes set the stage and explains how Li Bing will get appointed by the empress to move the investigational unit.
I just like the silliness of the characters, particularly the scribe, who’s the “black cloud” and all the time attracts disasters. Let’s examine how this performs out.
Everlasting Brotherhood
I wasn’t going to start out this because it simply appears like a conflict drama that may require me to concentrate. However in the long run I wished to seek out out what the fuss is all about and I additionally like Liu Yu Ning.
