The Eighth Sense: The Series

The indie vibe, amazing performances, all right messages and a beautiful love story. The casting director should get a raise for finding this ideal match - Im Ji Sub and Oh Jun Taek. The series addresses all the issues - dealing with trauma, understanding who you are and what it is really important in your life. And those visuals, you are kidding me.. Those faces. All this at the back of beautiful sea shore, surfing. Amazing moment of cinema and a really breakthrough in Korean BL drama. Special thanks for the OST - truly wonderful. Wetter, Unalaska, Conan Gray, Floris ans others - a pure delight to listen to. Also - 30-40 min per episode is finally what we were expecting for, a big change from 15 min BL. Thank you for creating a very satisfying watch.

One of the bestest bl ever!! Deserves more success and recognition. Just go and watch it rn guys! You'll thank me later. The actors nailed it!! Their chemistry>>>>>>>>>> I am so down for them. A Great story, with breathtaking cinematography and the music guys, so beautiful perfect!! My words won't ever do justice to how beautiful this series was. I sincerely thank the director and writer for bringing this beautiful masterpiece to us. In short this bl is so precious to me aka this series is engraved in my heart!! You won't ever regret watching it. Looking forward to see more projects from them.

I don't remember the last time I wrote a review on imdb, if ever, but I loved this series so much that I wanted to leave some praise for it. When I first saw the trailer, I thought the cinematography looked beautiful and I liked that there was surfing involved, but I also expected a certain degree of... reservedness (is that a word? Maybe just "reservation"?) that seems common in kdramas. Which I realize is a cultural difference, so I'm not criticizing, but I loved The Eighth Sense for how visceral it is. There are tight closeups to let us see every flicker of a characters eyes, there's handheld camera work so we feel like we're walking the streets of Seoul beside them, there are awkward silences, there's sexual tension so thick it makes the audience a little nervous and fluttery. The characters feel fully-inhabited, and the music!! So many really fantastic uses of music, most of which I hadn't heard before.

Overall, I think this is an incredible series, and highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in romance and/or coming of age stories.

Every bl industry out there gonna have to try real hard to topple the crown of the eighth sense for best bl of the fkn century cos they're taking it. I wanted ended short and sweet but imdb isn't letting me so let's get it. I thoroughly and went I say thoroughly I truly and completely enjoyed this show. It's just for my liking. It's made for my liking. The actors are acting just the way i like it to be. Oh jun taek my guy is doing so much for his first acting gig like he truly amazing do not even get me started on lim ji sub he ate up his role like jae won is my fav character. Ok limit reached. Lastly thanks to the amazing writers and directors for giving us this show, it was truly worth it and made me the happiest on Wednesday I'm gonna miss it so so much. That season 2 better be in the works cos I miss my boys and I need it see more of them.

This is my all-time favorite BL in many ways (pretty much all). I think the thing that got the most out of the story is that it was all so natural and realistic that I, as a young gay man, could see myself there in both of them. From the looks, to the little touches, the first kiss coming out of nowhere, pretending it never happened lol, the courage to assume you're looking for a man and all the fear of coming out but at the same time not fearing anymore because love is more important, it's all very relatable in the story. As for the characters, they were very well built, Jihyun and Jaewon are so charismatic and adorable that already in the first episode I was in love with them and wishing them the best, I want to congratulate Jinsub and Juntaek for being able to bring these characters to life in the best way and make this love story even better. I must also congratulate everyone else involved as, as for BLs, probably the choice of soundtrack, cinematography, direction, dialogues, are all my favorites!! I have several scenes that I could spend the day talking about, but my favorite: Jihyun and Jaewon hugging in EP5, the scene was so sensitive, with the acting and directing, along with the perfect choice of instrumental that I couldn't hold back the tears. 10/10 DRAMA!!!
