Best Kbl of the year
I don’t normally write reviews but I have for this one .I watched the series without expectations considering they are actors I’m not familiar with but I would say it was worth my time .
The budget , story line , acting , emotions , everything is a 10/10. The story line had a very deep meaning and made me reflect on my personal life . The fact that I could resonate with the characters and how they went from being alone to having each other warms my heart .I hope to see more of them in good series like this . Definitely worth everything

Did we watch a different drama? Special premise and that is all
I am wondering what am I missing. Can someone enlighten me please. What was 'the best drama I ever watched' about this?Myeong-ha was definitely a great character and props to the actor behind him. Caring. Responsible. His writing was interesting. I liked Sangwon too, I thought his position was very unusual and appealing for a BL, but also underdeveloped. He had a lot of potential.
As for Yeo-woon, I did not believe the character one sec. The chemistry between the leads was lacking left and right. I cannot with that really. He was very one dimensional for me.
Perhaps it is about somewhat misplaced casting, too few episodes for the meaning to prevail or not great writing.
Sometimes cute, sometimes engaging most times left me quite unmoved - meh. It is 8 x 40min, so not too long. The story is unique and Tae Myung-ha is crush worthy so up for you to decide.
Thanks for reading.

Not Sure why this drama got such a high rating ?
When I read the synopsis for this drama, it sounded really interesting. However, the actual drama did not deliver.Characters were boring, especially the ML (Yeo Woon).
Chemistry? There was no chemistry. It's like, boom! Both just started liking each other. Especially for MC (Tae Myung). I don’t see how MC could have fallen for ML. There was really nothing special about ML that would make him fall for him. Other than maybe he's handsome lol!
The idea of the "system" MC was stuck with was confusing. Till the very end, nothing was explained why he got transported. Or who was the guy that transported MC. The ending felt sort of rushed. Nothing really got explained.

I was confused
I dont think a singl plotpoint actually like fit with the other plotpoints ngl.I only watched the show for Cha Woongki tbf so I wasnt expecting much and I could have probably focused more and understood the plot better.
For me, it felt rushed at the end and the plot just suddently shifted in a weird turn.
Like bro, how was the message of this show "enjoy every day" like my guy, this show was a fantasy about being in a game, like wth.
I also didnt think the characters had ANY chemistry, like none, nada. I mean other than that one sister (dont remember her name). I feel like she actually made the show better cause she was funny.

A fantastic start to 2024...
There is always one drama, which you accidently discover and it turns out to be one of the best dramas you ever watched.Love for Love's sake is that drama for me. It was a joy to watch how the story unfolded throughout the series.
The acting, direction and production where equivalent to kdramas which is commendable. In terms of acting, both the leads hit it out of the park, be it being happy or being vulnerable.
The visuals and the OST are to die for. I m glad 2024 kbls kicked off to a flying start with Love for lovesake.
Sure it has its share of flaws but the immense happines that this drama will bring you prevents you from niticking.
Hope 2024 churns out more delightful dramas like this in the upcoming months.

I didn't expect
This is more than what a web drama could've possibly done. I watched the first 4 episodes and i assumed this as an another web drama with light plot. But after watching the other 4 episodes, I was really caught off guard by the presentation idea of the storyline. I know there're some lack but I can forget them. Tbh I didn't expect this much effort from the web drama. Ok let me appreciate the production. Only if the duration of each episodes were longer than 40 mins, this gon be a killer. I really love the last episode where they portrayed beautifully. But i don't like the way they put the side character for nothing like they're just existing!?? ( anyway my pookie yeowoon is so cute ㅠㅠ)Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Just to be called unique in the BL genre, it tried to add elements they couldn't execute well.
The acting was pretty good considering they're rookie actors. The plot progression however was disappointing. It was trying too hard to blow our minds with the world building with ML getting transported into a virtual world and some time loop that was added in the last minute for what purpose exactly? The overall execution was terrible. I rarely say a show is overrated but this definitely does fit the bill. For the sake of being called unique in the BL genre, it tried to add elements they couldn't even execute well.Yeo Woon got annoying when he started acting aegyo, my whole body was cringing
SPOILER:
It's so funny how Yeo Woon ignored Myungha for days after he misunderstood on why Sang Won brought Myungha home. Myungha tried to resolve the issue by communicating but he just ignored his existence and even said "I'm exhausted leave me alone" in his face but when Myungha wanted to break up, Yeo Woon didn't want to, acting like the victim in the situation like make it make sense.

What a lovely series!
Like the main character, we're drawn into this life-size video game story. We follow the story intensely, wishing that fiction could become reality. We also note that just because you think you're doing it right doesn't mean you're doing it right - an interesting theme.As is often the case with Korean BLs, and unlike Thai BLs, we're not drowned out by countless long, maudlin scenes. Instead, the series cuts to the chase, keeping us captivated.
The actors are convincing. It's well filmed.
Worth seeing.

Blending Romance, Intrigue, and Emotion in 2024's Standout BL Series
"Love for Love's Sake" doesn't just raise the bar for BL shows; it vaults over it, offering a captivating blend of compelling story, engaging characters, and powerful emotions. This 2024 series masterfully combines the three core elements of a successful show, resulting in a unique and unforgettable experience.The story hooks us instantly with its premise: Tae Myung Ha, a serious and responsible man, suddenly finds himself thrust into a game world where his mission is to ensure the happiness of Cha Yeo Woon, a talented athlete burdened by misfortune. Lee Tae Vin and Cha Joo Wan deliver impactful performances, portraying Tae Myung Ha's determined care and Cha Yeo Woon's initial skepticism that gradually melts into love.
However, "Love for Love's Sake" goes beyond a simple romance. The game mechanics, introduced through on-screen notifications and quests, add a layer of intrigue and danger. Glitches and forced corrections introduce uncertainty, keeping us guessing about the game's boundaries and Tae Myung Ha's fate. Each completed quest brings him closer to his goal, but also closer to a ticking clock with potentially disastrous consequences.
Oh Min Su shines as Chun Sang Won, the initially antagonistic character who undergoes a compelling transformation due to Tae Myung Ha's influence. His rivalry with Cha Yeo Woon for Tae Myung Ha's affection adds complexity to the dynamics, highlighting the emotional stakes involved.
The series transitions seamlessly from comedic moments to romantic scenes, exploring the evolving dynamics between the main characters as they navigate love, friendship, and the unpredictable nature of the game. As the stakes heighten and the game's influence grows darker, "Love for Love's Sake" delves into themes of sacrifice and resilience, keeping viewers on the edge of their seats until the final episode.
"Love for Love's Sake" is a must-watch for BL fans and anyone seeking a show that pushes the boundaries of the genre. Its intriguing concept, layered characters, and impactful emotional journey solidify its place as a standout series in 2024.

Really engaging plot!
I only watched this because I kept seeing it trending on Twitter and I figured since it was being talked about maybe i should give it a go.I'm so glad I did.
This one managed to have really adorably cute bits, one really charismatic lead, and one adorable lead and a handful of really likable support characters. But despite being 'cute' the story is incredibly engaging and mysterious even. Not to mention at times even creepy.
As with the case for many Korean BLs, displays of physical affection are very tame so if you're hoping for a lot of that, this ain't it. But that being said, the chemistry between the two leads is enough and the story itself is so good that it's worth a watch even if you're not into BL.
Best bits:
The game layouts when there were missions and side quests and proximity notices popping up. Really made it feel like you were watching a gameplay. And the system errors by the end were creeping me out.
When the mission changes from 'Please Make Cha Yeowoon happy' to 'Please Make Tae Myungha happy', I'm not gonna lie, I did tear up. Especially when you saw how unhappy he was.
Other:
There were a few times where I was slightly confused as to what was going on but only momentarily and I think that fits with the idea that the 'game' is experiencing..difficulties.

Unique Plot and Amazing Actors
This plot was something I had never seen before which had me interested immediately. From the camera work during the game scenes, the amazing acting by the cast, and the little details, it blew me away.The way that the game seemingly felt impossible to beat yet at its core, was showing Myungha how beautiful life is. To be loved and love. "I gave you my love and I got your heart in return". Both main characters leaned on eachother even though they both had their fair share of hardships.
How in the first in episode Myungha says, "I'm going to see my main". And in the last episode, Yeowoon says the same line. Because now Yeowoon wasn't the main character to make happy, he himself was.

Perfect Balance
Stellar performance from the main casts, great cinematography, some amazing editing, very unique storyline and the main thing is HOPE! ! Korean BL set the bar high once again. I was in an empty phase once I finished Last Twilight, glad i found this gem. Lee Taevin, the actor that you are.Wish they released this weekly because the potential to be a HIT series is there.
This will dethrone Semantic Error or even The Eighth Sense as my top Korean BL Series.
It may have a very limited production but it serve really well to the story .
