Desconhecido (2024)

The beauty when unrequited love for decades turns mutual

This drama is filled with all kinds of human emotions. This is probably the best BL series of Taiwan. the actors are the cream on the top.

The hard life Wei Qian has gone through to raise this family and Wei Yuan's secret love and support to Qian really moved me into tears. The story was well written in every aspect.

The trauma of wei qian being abused by his mother still lingers, like how can a mom be like that? still Wei Qian pulled himself together to give an awesome life to LIlli and his adopted brother from street, Wei zhiyuan. As days goes on Wei Zhiyuan slwoly develop his love for Qian from his childhood, loving him secretly and taking care of him no matter what. It was really tiring for Yuan to love his brother but he didn't give up until his brother accepts it.

At the beginning Qian was hostile toward this love but gradually when yuan was sent abroad to study, Qian understood how important Yuan was to him in his life and gradually fell in love with him. Woahhh the last 2 eps was really good and it wasn't really enough for me. The emotions were well executed by the actors.

I love them. I love how Yuan loved his brother. i loved how Qian was responsible in everything. as a whole it was a beautiful love story.

Such a different and amazing bl series

The dynamics of this relationship are so different from what we normally get, there are a few series where one person struggles to accept the others feelings but this is for completely different reasons and is portrayed really well.

The comedy was done perfectly with the script and the way the actors portrayed it, it’s such a series series but still somehow is so entertaining to watch so it never gets boring.

Towards the end there were so many times I had to pause because it was funny or shocking, especially with Yuan's flirting, he has very good game and it was fun to watch him be smug whilst Qian tries to process it.

The acting is by far one of the best bits, the actors have such great chemistry, this is said in so many of their interviews, it creates that connection that the characters have since they have known each other for ages.

Will definitely rewatch, there are so many feelings with each of the characters and once you know everything more and more makes sense.

The only problem is the pacing, it worked great but maybe some more focussed points on Qian’s developed feelings and more of their relationship when they are finally together. I wouldn’t say it’s rushed but just done in a different style. Then as many say about the nc scene, it is a let down, it’s not just about nc but I feel like if the montage wasn’t there, the emotions could have been shown better.

Ge to Gege ?

Unknown has definitely been one of the well-written Taiwanese Bls in the last few years.

Yup, I said it. I think Taiwan was going through a slump of BLs in terms of their production and such. As I dropped a lot of the released BLs over the past few years.

The reason why I could not give this series a solid 10/10 is just that I could not really feel settle or fully feel comfortable regarding the leads. I know that they aren't blood related at all and by any means, they are basically strangers who just happened to become a family. Or like raised together as a parent/son? Older brother/younger brother ... See even saying this whole sentence, it already kind of makes me feel unsettled. I guess that's my only critique of this fictional show. I do know that there are many many series with this type of plot synopsis but still, I think that is for sure the reason why it just doesn't seem like a 10/10 drama for me.

Now in terms of all the positive aspects of this show:
- It is well-written. Both leads are written well, for their background, their motivation to succeed in time. In terms of accepting themselves given how society perceives them.
- This also goes to the supporting leads as well. Each of them are developed and there might be a few jagged scenes here and there. Regardless, it was not something that was so distracting and can go unnoticeable.
- The ending was amazing, it encompasses the vulnerability, yet steamingly hot and mature scenes. It was absolutely beautiful and I love it.

This "Unknown" gem, now is found!

Bl dramas that are amazingly good are really hard to come by, and this is ine of them!

The story is about family(biological & found), friendship and love. All are portrayd with an exceptional and heart-warming way!!!

It's a drama that gets you through a rollercoaster of emotions. You're gonna laugh, cry, anticipate, be excited, be depressed and for us that watched it when was airing, we were also left with a cliff-hanger every week waiting for a new ep!!
It isn't a rushed drama but it doesn't leave you with a rushed ending, like most slow-burn dramas do.!!

The cast did an exceptional job portraying the characters and all the emotions throughout the drama.
Whoever picked the cast did an amazing job and has my respect, honestly!!!

Everything was 10/10 in this drama!!
The cast, the music, the direction, the screen-writing!!

So don't miss out on this masterpiece and go watch it, if you haven't already!
You won't regret it!!

Unknown will remain a masterpiece! There is no going back after this series! Rated no # 1 BL !

No coming back from this series. THIS WAS FIRE ! 💥🔥It sunk in way too deep in our hearts,❤‍🔥and filled our souls! They took us into 'another whole level' - a leave that could not be compared to any other BL. This series left an unforgettable - heavy impact on fans. It's beyond words, to describe what we are feeling. Honestly, the story that was written, created, and acted was in such a perfect way that, they left the audience in awe🙀💙💟. This story will remain a masterpiece❣and, will be talked about for a long time. I sincerely hope we will see more of Qian and Yuan ( Chris and Kurt) soon as fans are stuck on them, and finding it rather difficult to move on. The NC scenes were done so effortlessly because they were super comfortable with each other, and had total freedom, so they had a natural flow, and that was executed in such a perfect way. Thank you so much for releasing 'Unknown' It will remain classic forever!💞

This series is really worth watching

This series focuses on brothers who have a lot of drama. The meeting, which was initially just a form of concern, made Yuan, his younger brother, fall in love with his older brother. Xian, the older sibling, who initially didn't know, slowly felt lonely when his younger sibling wasn't by his side. Then when he almost lost his younger brother because of that "strange game". The climax was when he first endured his younger brother's departure and began to accept his younger brother's love.

This series really gives me both happiness and sadness. I can even feel it on both sides. Thanks to the good acting from the two actors, I managed to watch this series until the end. Thank you for presenting a very good series. Amazing

The story was 10/10, acting 10/10.
The story was so good. He sacrificed so much for his younger siblings and gone through a lot just to take care of them. The trauma was so realistic and made sense. His dilemma regarding his feelings were justified.
The writer was so good and took care of every point beautifully. However, i feel something was missing. Maybe a little more emotion needed to be shown.
Idk if it was only me, but i felt like i needed a little more love. Little more concentration on love between them would have been great.
Some parts were little bit unclear, i guess it's more because of the editing.
Will i rewatch it? YES absolutely. I need to watch it again so i can fully understand.
Overall this was a great series. 8.5/10, and this score is maybe because i have high expectations of Taiwanese dramas. I mean 2 of the greatest dramas of all time was made in Taiwan. Kiseki: dear to me & History 3: make our days count. So, i was expecting this to be as good as those in terms of transferring the love and emotions to the viewer

True love bl perfectly portrayed by the main Leads,but wished certain points were taken care.

Finally our favourite series is got an end with a total of 12 amazing episodes.But why all the series that are so nice suddenly ends only when the relationship between the characters just starts to bloom .why are the directors in a hurry to finish it quicky only when the characters just starts opening up to eachother 😔 .
Now i want to bring into light some of the points that wish would have got the attention of the director or any of the members of officialunknownchannel . So here it goes
1 .Qian has been like a father figure to his siblings more than just a brother ,so for him yuan is not only like a brother but like a son too ,in the boxing episode even before qian confessed that he liked boys ,when yuan said to qian " you looked the best" how come qian felt something different at that moment and kind of shy too but after scene qian was back to being interacting like his ge only ,i feel a missing piece over there as there was no follow up of that emotion after .
(throughout the whole series they made it look like yuan called his brother by his name whereas every time he called his brother "ge" ( meaning elder brother) and not Qian ( as they have given wrong subtitle purposefully , I don't know for what reason😠).
2.when Yuan was sent abroad after the confession and when he returned back as a new version and was again confessing to qian when they went for fishing mentioning about what he was thinking all these 4 years,only then it was made clear that he had returned after 4years but it looked like he went for a week and came back as a new version when qain called him.The thing is what happened between them in 4 years was not shown clearly coz it looked like he just went for a year and came back .They should have shown what qian had gone through all those years coz 4 years is not a small period .But it was made so simple like qian dusting yuans room and sucking the lollypop to avoid smoking coz yuan always warned him not to smoke but really not showing what happened between them in 4 years,how qian must have passed everyday ,did he try to call him ,did he wanted to go and see yuan in person ,how did he stay at their home alone near yuan's room being empty not having his presence 🥺how he might have wanted to know about what is going on in yuans life through other contacts , and was he doing well ?like i don't understand how come he could he survive like that without any presence of him for 4 years ( though sangpang mentioned he looked miserable after yuan left ) that miserable part is the missing part that im talking about, doesn't make any sense to me 😣they should have shown all the pain qian has gone through missing yuan and talking about yuan what he might have gone through not able to hear his ge 's voice , dying to see him for 4 years , though he will be getting updates through sangpang and lili how come he controlled himself to stay like that because i know he will do anything what his ge ask him to ,but some more deatils of yuans pain and his daily struggle must have been shown in that particular espisode. Those 4 years just looked like it passed so easily without much change except yuan's hairstyle being changed and him coming as a new version.
3. when yuan came back as a new version and starts to express his love in his own way (though qian was nervous and confused) he was still staying like he used to be( like a father/ older brother) but then suddenly
in episode 11 after qian confessed to yuan that he doesn't know what his feelings for yuan is , whether it is a brotherly effection or love and when he leaves yuans hand when he was taking him upstairs saying that " I don't know whether im ready to go up with you" ( of course how would qian know what feelings he has for yuan coz 4 years they just wasted by not showing any character development for qian for sorting his emotions for yuan) and when yaun for the last and final time made his feelings clear by saying " i want to be with you for the rest of my life ,can i ?" how come they directly jump to bed scene without allowing their love to blossom and qian breaking down his guard as a brother and being comfortable with opening up to his brother about his feeling in his own pace rather than forcing the character who has been like a brother /father figure to suddenly get physically intimate with his brother who he has been taking care like his son since childhood
I felt that the series got end just like that showing their intimate scene without actually showing how Qian slowly accepted his brother as a lover ,how their relationship progressed to be able to get intimate with yuan physically coz even in the episodes just before the bed scene he was not shown in anyways was ready to put his guard down as a brother , yuan has been waiting for that moment all his life as he said but on qian's parts he has been portrayed as someone who will never sleep with his brother one sudden day because the way he has been with lili and yuan he definitely should have given time to reach that scene.
They shouldn't have been in a hurry to finish it like that cause if the intimate scene was shot only after showing their blooming romantic relationship it would have made sense on Qian' part ( being the father/ brother figure to yuan since his childhood to be able to even think of yuan as a lover in the first place let alone to be able think of sleeping with him)😣.Their intimate scene was perfectly portrayed by chris and xuan ,thanks to them for giving their heart and soul to the character 😊♥️ but my only concern was on the above points especially when they hurried upto to the bed scene coz they could have slowed down over there by just kissing and not taking it forward on that day itself and giving qian his own time to see his brother as a lover in the first place ,to be able to be comfortable to get into physical relation with him .Anyways thanks to the (author)priest
for writing such an amazing story.
Thanks to to auditiong department for casting chris and xuan for the role of qian and yuan. The way chris portrayed every emotion of qian shows how talented and great actor he is ,expressing every subtle emotions of qian to the top-notch.He gave his heart and soul to this character ,that why we know qian as yuan's dage😊. coming to xuan ,he also gave his heart and soul to the character and his realtionship with chris in real life also helped him to act comfortably and bring out all the emotions of yuan naturaly.He mentioned in an interview that since he was less experienced he felt helpless at certain times and when didn't know what to do so he always turned to chris for help and after communicating with him he would know what to do☺️ so chris was there with him throughout the series guiding and caring him as his ge.Thanks to Chris for being such a sweet heart and caring xuan like his own brother pouring him all the love and care💖.
All the child artists,( they all did an amazing job but i felt bad for the youngest qian coz while showing how bad and abusive his mother was ,the way she kissed him and hugged him though it is for acting i didn't find it right for a child to experience it😠) , sang pang and lili also did their characters with all justice.
Actors - chris ( who played the role of Qian)and Xuan ( who played the role of yuan) . They both share an amazing bond both on and off screen 💗. Just like in the series😭 in real life also chris is xuans's ge who takes care of him like his own baby brother ,helping throughout the shooting of the series and xuan said in an interview that series is as it is because they all love eachother from the bottom of their heart and there are lot of emotions that they didn't just act but are genuine 🥺🥰and also they both have known each other for almost 10 years 🤗🥺 and xuan also respects and loves his ge immensely .we could see in their eyes the love care and adoration they both have for eachother whenever they interact 🥺😪🥰. Already missing them 😭
Finally thanks to the whole crew for giving the best of them and giving us such an amazing series touching our hearts through qian and yuan's pure love and making this series forever memorable in our hearts .only wish the above points were taken care ✌️🙂. Sorry for the long paragraph 😅.
