Love in the Big City

Love In The Big City is the best drama I've seen this year. The first of its kind to come out of a conservative and homophobic country like South Korea. A coming-of-age slice of life lgbtq drama that promises to entice viewers with its unique plot and outstanding cinematography. With an outstanding lead actor Nam Yoon-Su who portrays Ko Young and once again proved just how talented he is as an actor. Outstanding Casting and writing love in the big city is indeed groundbreaking. Absolute cinema that deserves accolades. I enjoyed this drama and it's on my rewatch list. Congratulations to the author for his creative work and success.

This was a raw and realistic journey that has the characters plucking our emotional heartstrings. The tenderness of relationships, contrasted with the agony in lessons of self awareness breathes life into this series. I haven't read the original material and so I can only comment on the series itself. Our main lead did a beautiful job illustrating the cycle of growth within young love, attachment, ignorance, maturing and the painful art of reflection. The visceral nature of the content allows the viewer to reflect on their own life journey and relate to the characters - ah yes, I remember that stage of life. I loved the stationary thread of the group of friends that allowed us to weave in and out of the story of lovers, love, attachment and relationships - death, loss, regret and still come home to friendship. So many beautiful reflections that ultimately brings an appreciation back to how much we go through as humans exploring love, life and death. Wonderful acting, fantastic writing, beautiful story and well worth the watch.

Gosh, i love how this drama is really broke me mentally, and i also love how realistic this drama is, unlike other bl that's dont reveal the real life of being a queer in this society. Love in the big city also show some sort of things real gay people do like having another gay friend, having an ally girl bestfriend, hookup culture (not a nice thing to do tho), and having a religious parent (i cried a lot during some episode since its so relatable to me) yep, that's what you got from a story that written by a real gay man, pain and suffer... I need more realistic queer drama like this tbh, an absolute masterpiece 11/10.

Firstly,the plot gives the feeling combination of romance ,realistic , good chemistry and acting. The actor is also one the reasons to watch this serie. It may not overwhelm with only romance, you can also see the nature of gay dating and struggles of be a gay. While watching this serie, the reversible cycle of relations the lead actor had made us to think of ourself. Seeing the friendship between him and his roommate, is heart-touching. I wanna finish my review with the line in the serie I adore most" The things those we thought together-eternal is apart at last".

If you wanna watch a movie on holiday, the serie should be ontop of the list.

I couldn't found another word other then masterpiece. Love in the big city was such a rollercoaster of emotions; while watching I felt every single of emotion such as happiness, sadness, anger, sorrow, love, regret, as if I was the one who's experiencing those events. It was so much different from other kbl dramas, it has such a deep effect on me I can't say nothing but thousands of thank you for the whole cast who was working on this series. As a queer person who's struggling to adjust society this series mean so much to me.

In conclusion, love in the big city is a masterpiece about struggling of personal growth, struggling of queer people who live in judgemental, heteronormative and conservative society, struggling of people who are in searching of eternal love, who are searching stabile life, series about love, traumas, ups and downs, happiness and regret, series about the people who are just trying to live their lives. Nam Yoon Su's acting was something phenomenal, I just want to meet him and praise him for delivering such a powerful and great acting. Thank you for every person who choose to act in this masterpiece, because in the conservative society such as Korea it's such a pain to act in queer drama; thank you for despite being protested and criticised you chose to act in this drama. Thank you for Nam Yoon Su who rejected two big projects for love in the big city when producing wasn't even confirmed. You are making a history. Thank you as a person who wants to change discriminative society and thousands of thank you as a queer person who is struggling to live in a heteronormative and judgmental society. I repeat, love in the big city is a masterpiece.
