Wicked Game (Mini-Series)

One more vertical drama and all I can say is that this was one of the silliest, bad and a story that just randomly ended. I dont even know what was the point of making it. It almost felt like a school project with caricatures, no proper storyline, no development and random snippets just joint together.

A young thief Bunny is runny away from mafia when he meets Marcus. Turns out Bunny owes 100k to the mafia, which Marcus agrees to pay but in return he wants Bunny to become his slave. In the next scene we see Sebastian, who is torturing Bunny into finding out some of Marcus' secrets. Seb is supposedly Bunny's cousin. At the same time Sebastian is trying to get into some kind of business deal with Marcus. During this time, Marcus continues to use Bunny as his pet but is also starting to suddenly fall for him, even though Bunny makes it clear that he is not into men. The story continues with random twists and as expected towards the end Sebastian kidnaps Bunny, threatens his life and Marcus saves him. Bunny suddenly realizes he is in love with his boss who saved his life and together they then run away from the goons that are following them.

The show is just bad and there is no sugar coating to it. Yes, the actors were hot and looked good but I dont think the writers or makers had any idea on what is it that they really wanted to make. Also I dont understand the title. It was never clear if Bunny accidentally met Marcus or was it planned. If he owed 100k to Mafia, and when Marcus turns out to be mafia boss, why does Bunny have o reaction. On the other hand, Sebastian seemed more powerful but his villain character was almost laughable. So was the use of two females playing suppose love interest of our leads were for nob use whatsoever. And besides that random kiss towards the end there was no real build up of any love or affection between the lead. This one is completely avoidable. (1/10)

Drug Shore (Chinese)

Apparently tis film was adapted by a true story Well, true or not, movies/series about drugs are not easy to watch. I have always said that drugs is like the end of life for anyone. For those who sink into this sea of addiction, some manage to swim upstream to recovery, while others cannot make it to the shore. The film may not be the best, but it does have a noble intention to remind everyone of the evil affects of drugs and combining that with sex. Ah Zhe is in a happy relationship with his influencer boyfriend. On his partner's birthday, they end up going to a party, which interestingly is being hosted at a drug dealer's house and this is where for the first time he is exposed to the world of drugs.

The dealer has a soft corner for Ah Zhe, but before anyone realizes, Ah Zhe's life spirals out of control when slowly he starts doing more and more drugs, ...

One Summer Night (Korean)

I really wanted to like this film but for non native speakers, these movie leaves a lot to be understood and the way scenes were unfolding in front of me, I wasn't sure many times what was really going on. The story had potential button getting any back story on any of the characters limited my ability to empathize with any of these actors. Film starts with two North Korea military guys Yong Joon and Jae Sung having sex and they are caught red handed and they run. Three years later we see Yong Joon in Seoul leading a very mundane and poor life. He has a boyfriend Tae-Kyu, who is a weird guy. He is carefree, doesn't do any work and is completely emotional and financially dependent on Young Joon. In fact, even Yong Joon will go to any lengths to protect him , fend for him and taking care of him to the extent of even taking up prostitution. Suddenly one day Jae Sung appears in their life again. His motivation is not clear but it is obvious he wants Yong Joon back in his life, who ...
