I Came for the Dance and Stayed for the Performance
This series is great because of the uniqueness of the storyline. It doesn’t spend much time on character introduction but immediately slips into the central storyline. Some might feel that as a disadvantage since we don't get much understanding of the characters and certainly no backstories, but with the main plot being so entertaining and the performances so exceptional, we can overlook those faults.The story revolves around Song Shi-On, a talented dancer, and Jin Hong Seok, a debt collector. Their paths cross because Shi-On fails to pay off his debts, and Hong Seok forces himself into Shi-On’s life, taking control of his dance practices to ensure that he wins the competition and pays off his debts. This leads to a unique and captivating relationship.
One of the strengths of the series is the performances by the two main characters. Won Tae Min portrays Jin Hong Seok, a cold and stoic debt collector who slowly starts to have feelings for Shi-On. Tae Min fully embodies the character of Hong Seok, making us feel his belief in Shi-On’s dreams and his unwavering support. Choo Young Woo brings Shi-On to life, exploring the complexities of his journey and delving into themes such as self-discovery, pursuing one's passion, and overcoming personal obstacles.
One potential weakness of the series is its short episode duration, which might leave some wanting more in terms of character development and plot exploration. However, the engaging performances and captivating chemistry between the leads compensate for this to a large extent.
In conclusion, 'You Make Me Dance' is a delightful and uplifting series that offers a fresh take on romance. The brilliant performances by the actors, the well-executed dance sequences, and the fitting choice of background score make this truly entertaining.

OMG! Am I dreaming?!? ♥‿♥
Fist of all, this drama can give you butterfly effect if you love sweet and lovely love stories. The main casts was perfectly chosen, and I really love that fact here wasn't 2nd lead. Plus more point!! And that second fact it was a love drama with a hint of dancing, that was really nice and unique in their own way!! aw I loved it! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧I was also really amazed by the OST soundtracks,it was really goooood, and some scenes just broke my heart (Yeah I know I am that type of person who can cry on everything lolol) but really...I was really touched by this drama.
It has everything that I wanted from a sweet and lovely BL drama. This drama also give us lessons about love and everyday life. I liked this too, so it is a plus point from me to the series.
By The Way I also loved everything about this drama.
My only one problem with this drama is, IT'S TOO SHORT!! I/we need more episodes of this series! I can say that it's my second fav Korean BL. (✿◠‿◠)

A cute story but many unanswered questions
For a second I thought this show would go into my most hated cliche, the “one half of the couple goes to another country in the last episode" route, but it thankfully didn't.At first I didn't feel much chemistry between the main actors, but it got better as the show went on. For a korean BL I feel like this series kinda pushes the limits a bit more than the usual shy 1 or 2 quick kisses. The main plot is simple but you can’t think too much about the details or it doesn’t make much sense. For example, where does the money come from for Shi On to live? Doesn’t he have to go to classes? Can Hong Seok’s just take 1 month off of work to do “nothing”?
This is a mini drama, and, just like the others, You Make Me Dance has some side plots that are not developed. But the non explanations here bug me more than normal. I understand that the mom abandoning him is important to the show, and we only know her from Shi On's eyes, but it's a weird plot point, since he got the money for her in the first place. Or did he actually got the money to live since she just left? Is the mom a terrible person and Shi On's just doesn't want to accept it in the beginning? She got married and left when She On tuned 20 (which apparently was the year prior), so she was a good mom for 20 years and then vanished? My impression is that Shi On is definitely not a reliable narrator.

Had me captivated from the start
Definitely one to top the list; there were so many things in this movie that made me want to re-watch again and again.The highlight of it all were the actors. Their portrayal of emotions whilst trying to simultaneously hide their emotions were a treat to watch. Relatively unknown actors, I hope we get to see a lot more from them in the years to come.
The story itself is cute, if not somewhat lacking in detail. It's an idealistic BL story but one that isn't completely new or fresh. Sets the appropriate tone for the movie and that's about it. Cute is probably the most ideal word to describe it.
Over all, I'd highly recommend a watch as the acting was on point. Chemistry was electric and the entire film gave me the warm fuzzies along with a sexy vibe, despite the sheer lack of anything obviously sexy. That, in itself, is an accomplishment!

Beautiful dance
I loved this series it was entertaining and well acted except for the deadfish kiss scenes The acting was good enough that the actors conveyed their characters so well there was no need for the kiss scenes especially since Choo young woo apparently had a problem doing a bl and If this is true it just lessens him as an actor, all acting in any genre when recognized above others is an achievement it is his job & when you are representing any love story do honor to the role, if not you cheapen your work and make it personal after all isn't it acting Don't reap the benefit and smear the project just speaks to his character if this is trueEsta resenha foi útil para você?
Foundational Romance Tropes? Fated mates & Grumpy/Sunshine
This is a cool little trope filled nugget out of Korea that I assumed was going to be a slice of life dance version of Wish You but was a bit more complex.The main character is a dancer and the love interest is a loan shark sent to extort money from him. There was a red tread soulmates trope coloring their interactions and a touch of unexpected physical humor.
Essentially it’s the story of two lonely lost souls finding each other, but also it’s about art and the connection it can build. The ending was rushed ( pacing off through the later half), and the whole thing came off as colder than I expected, but I liked it anyway.

Bel drama leggero e piacevole.
Non c'è molto da dire su questo drama bl corto e molto scorrevole.Una storia di un ragazzo aspirante ballerino che diventa un debitore dopo che non paga un prestito che aveva richiesto.Vive a stenti ma non rinuncia al suo sogno.Il creditore è un bellissimo uomo che però vedendolo ballare si sente attratto e decide di aiutarlo però mantenendo le debite distanze emozionali.Chiaramente non sarà proprio facile ma alla fine nonostante tutte le difficoltà andrà bene.Emozionante a tratti commovente questo drama è molto bello.

Korea has really good BL dramas
I have been watching Thai dramas for a long time but Korea has some really good BL dramas too. This is one of them. My favorite is Light On Me but this is a good close second. I feel like Korea comes with really unique storylines that are very captivating.The story was a really cute one from the start. Connected by a podcast from the start till the end. Just 2 lonely people who found each other, fell in love, and face the ups and downs of life. The chances of something like this happening in real life are close to none but in fiction, it makes a cute and fuzzy story and makes us believe that love truly is out there. Love comes in different ways and makes everything good again.
P.S. I see the connection of the red thread now in Until We Meet Again (Thai drama)

A beautiful thematic story interwoven with Art!
I love how korea brings out unique storylines and beautiful setups! Nothing was overdone and everything felt very calm and motivating to me! Actors gave enough justice to their characters and had excellent chemistry and their acting felt natural and smooth!Loved the concept of the 'Destiny woven by Red thread'. Visuals were appealing. There were a few cheesy moments but I could totally get through it because of the pacing! Expected more dancing as it was a dance based theme!
Yet a short, simple, sweet and enjoyable ride!

It had potential....but could've been better
Okay so the lady wanted Shi On to pay his debts...And Hong Seok had a house. He could have just sold the house and paid the debt, and then move in with Shi On....they were living together anyway. Instead of that, he decided to make an unreasonable deal with the lady- "I'll move to another country if you just let him keep the house". Apart from this, this is good enough....there are some soft and cute moments. The ending was unsatisfying. I was like- "This is the last episode? The relationship just started T.T "

This time I will focus on the slight flaws and why I took four points away from perfection in the form of ten for the individual evaluations.
A slight chill accompanied me throughout the series, unlike other dance projects. The plot was a bit too abrupt, sometimes on the contrary, the dancing skills were very average, and therefore there were not many shots of the actual "dance". In addition, it was filmed during the Korean winter, and the halls were completely unheated, when Song moved around in only a T-shirt or sweatshirt, and steam came from the actors' mouths as they spoke into the cold space. In this way, the dancers would have to practice wrapped in overalls, hats, gloves, so that their muscles do not stiffen or they do not get any health. problem. Jin Hong Seok, when he "jumped in" as a model and after adjusting the poses, the photographer was already satisfied, but he still looked like an exasperated mouse during the photo shoot. And those kisses were fishy. The strange character of the head of the enforcement firm and Jin's chaotic position as an employee in her, when he originally wanted to leave.
So now you say to yourself - so many criticisms and such evaluations, but they were trifles and Korea is one of the developed gay film countries, that's why I start from the tens, unlike for example some "beginner" countries, where I start from the ones and notice the pluses.
Čekal jsem trošku více, než jsem dostal, "něco" mi v tomto seriálu chybělo. Každopádně ale příjemné a lehce nadprůměrné, především díky roztomilosti Song Shi On-a.
Tentokrát se zaměřím na mírné nedostatky a proč jsem tedy ubral u jednotlivých hodnocení z dokonalosti ve formě desítky většinou čtyři body.
Celým seriálem mě provázel mírný chlad, na rozdíl od jiných tanečních projektů. Trošku překotnost děje, někdy naopak, taneční dovednosti byly velmi průměrné, a proto moc záběrů na vlastní "tanec" nebylo. Navíc se natáčelo v době korejské zimy a ty sály byly naprosto nevytopené, když se tam Song pohyboval třeba jen v tričku či mikině a od úst herců šla pára, jak mluvili do prochlazeného prostoru. Takto by museli tanečníci cvičit nabalení do kombinéz, čepic, rukavic, aby jim neztuhly svaly či nedostali nějaký zdrav. problém. Jin Hong Seok, když "zaskakoval" jako model a po úpravách póz už byl fotograf spokojen, přesto se tvářil u focení jak vyoraná myš. A ty polibky byly rybí. Divná postava šéfky vymahačské firmy a chaotické postavení Jina jako zaměstnance v ní, když vlastně původně chtěl odejít.
Tak teď si řeknete - tolik výtek a takové hodnocení, ale byly to drobnosti a Korea patří ke gay filmově vyspělým zemím, proto začínám od desítek na rozdíl třeba od některých "začátečnických" zemí, kde začínám od jedniček a všímám si plusů.

very enjoyable
am i crazy or the main lead Won Hyung Hoon looks a lot like Yang Se Jong ? i have no objection to this, just wonder. otherwise, drama is very good, so fresh and easy on the eyes... i'd watch it again any time. it contains only 8 episodes, also really short, so no time to get bored ... some sites compressed them into a movie. it might be low budget, or maybe just minimalist, but not in a troublesome way, it just looks more normal. nothing else to add to this, just watch it and enjoy, from start to finish it's nothing weird or outta place, quite the opposite. i should keep going to reach 500 characters lolEsta resenha foi útil para você?
