The Eighth Sense

This story line is interesting and I love how they make each episode into more than 40 min. Their tension is really growing slowly yet interesting to watch and viewers are eager to watch next episodes because of that.

The acting of the actors are superb. They are so natural. It is like a water drop to all low budget, 15 min, 8 epi Korean BLs. Directors have done a gd job as well. Also the story writers. I hope they make it to Netflix so they can become even more bigger.

I hope more BLs like this would happen so the Korean BL industry will be the next big thing just like Kpop and other straight Kdramas.

Good job by Lim Ji Sub.

I haven't written any reviews yet even though there are lots of movies and series that I adore. But I thought this one really deserves attentions and appreciations. Because it is an absolute aesthetic masterpiece. Everything about this series is perfect. The plot of the story may seems cliche but it explores the worries and uncertainties of graduates regarding their future. That is real and relatable. It's really fresh to see an understanding and non toxic relationship with amazing acting. Not just the protagonists but all the have done justice to their roles. I can't end my review without mentioning the cinematography, bgm and OSTs of this series. They deserve special mention.

Kidding. It was gonna be a ten any way.

The chemistry . Maybe cause i was sick yesterday, I was on fire with chills and electricity running through my limbs and belly. What's strange is I felt okay as soon as I paused the show...??!

The boys behaved very caringly around each other, like a real couple. Their acting was terrific; just by looking at their faces, I could tell how they felt and feel with them. They didn't even have to utter a word.

The story was pretty simple. We don't even get to know what actually happened to the dead dongseng (not a spoiler). By the way, what is the meaning of the title??? At some point I though there would be a story with a ghost. But no. The little "twist" after the accident was cheap, cruel, petty, and I hold it against the writer. Seriously. Playing with our feelings like that? But none of this was enough to ruin the vibe. So hard to lay down my phone and go to sleep. I slept and then woke up at four in the morning to watch more!

The cinematography was amazing, mesmerizing. The kiss in the middle of the foaming waves, the golden-rose aura, the peaceful sightviews... so romantic...T_T <3 The music... I already added the OST to my playlist.

Right now, I feel happy and I remember why I NEED a good BL now and then, when nothing else will cheer me up. More, please. It doesn't have to be a complex plot. All it requires is butterflies. This was beautiful. Thank you.

This is ACTING.. this is CINEMATOGRAPHY. This is chemistry without PUSHING it in our face.. it's subtle. It's unspoken. I grew up watching shows like skam and skins and despite me loving the fluff of Thai BL's... I love gritty lgbtq stories and I believe shows like this will open the door and kick it wide open for more Asian countries to do more lgbtq esque shows like this and what 180 degree longitude did a while ago as well. How are these actors ACTING without even speaking...they don't even need dialogue and it's so powerful between them that they don't even need words. Highly recommend it !

OMG!!!!! Where to begin? And what can I say that hasn't been said already? I don't know I just want to talk about it because I need to cry about it somewhere.

This show deserves all the praise and more and I feel tempted to write one of my essays again but I'll refrain. I just NEED to say that Korea is really out there taking the bl genre seriously, finally, with great plots, performances, and chemistry.

"Our Dating Sim", "Unintentional Love Story" and "The Eighth Sense" are all from this year and they're all so good, I've watched them all more than once. None beats this one though.

This is the best bl show of this year so far and I bet it will be unbeatable!

Plot - 10/10 Performance - 10/10 Chemistry - 10/10 Love scenes - 10/10 Photography - 10/10 Directing - 10/10 OST - OMG BEST EVER!! There's not one song, instrumental or not that doesn't fit perfectly in every scene, and I'm literally obsessed with it.

I just can't say it's the best bl of all time because I'm emotionally attached to "Semantic Error" and can't move on, but this one is a very close second.

Watch it. Watch it again. Give it the love it deserves!

Did I just write another essay? Aish I'm sorry 😅
