My elbow hurts a bit less today, so here have a short drama watching report. Plus a very short review of one movie. 😊

The Price of Confession

It was amazing till the end. I was a tiny bit disappointed with ‘who the real murderer is’ reveal, but really just a teeny tiny bit. It didn’t detract from the amazingness of the rest of the drama. And Kim Go Eun, wow... 😍 What a fantastic actress she is. I mean I knew she was good, but here it’s like another level. I’m very impressed and so in love.

You can say Kim Go Eun is my new obsession, since after finishing this drama I instantly watched Love in the Big City (a movie with her and Steve Noh, not a drama with Nam Yoon Su). Now I plan to watch a horror movie Exhuma, and later I will either re-watch The King Eternal Monarch, or start watching You And Everything Else.


10 Dance

It was wonderful. Machida Keita and Takeuchi Ryoma have sizzling chemistry, and for my non-expert eye are very good at dancing. And they are very good at kissing, too. 😊 I will be re-watching for sure, probably more than once.

The ending seems a bit open. In the sense that it ended as if the sequel was already planned. As far as I know the manga this movie is based on is still ongoing, so here is hoping we will get a sequel in the future.


Dare You to Death

Okay, it feels so weird to watch GMMTV BL drama on Netflix instead of Youtube, heh. But that way it’s not divided into four short vids, so it’s a big plus.

After the 1st episode my opinion is this – it’s entertaining and amusing. I admit I did expect something a bit more darker and grimmer. And judging by that first episode it’s seems to have a surprisingly light, and often even humorous tone, considering the subject matter.

But the main criminal mystery is interesting enough, supporting character are played by actors I like, and both Joong and Dunk look hella fine and have great chemistry. So I do plan to watch more. And it’s nice to have a BL drama to watch on Thursdays.


Heated Rivalry

I’ve just finished watching the 5th episode. It was fine. I wish I liked Shane and Ilya (well, mainly Ilya, I like Shane well enough) and their relationship more, so I could be again in a big, thriving fandom with a lot of fics and discussions. Alas, it was not meant to be, since here I am once again falling in love with a rare pairing. 😊


More here with spoilers.I wish there was a bit more about Scott and Kip in this episode. I would be satisfied even with one or two short scenes. Because what I loved the most here was that last scene with the kiss on ice. It was wonderful.

I also really liked Shane and Rose’s talk when they break up and he comes out to her. It was very well done and very well acted. I love Rose in general, she’s a great character.
