A guilty pleasure -- Let's enjoy this soapy drama
Even though this will be a long ride (28 episodes), four aired episodes took off to set a direction for where this ride will be. Maybe there will be a plot twist, but we know a big storm ahead for the central conflict of the series, as the curse has been spelled at the beginning of the series.Thian, as a leading source of the conflict, will need to make difficult decisions in the future. The firstborn prince in the family, Thian's fate wanted to be set by both his mom and his dad. As perfect as he seems, he admits that 'nobody is perfect.' His smart mom acknowledges Thian's shortcomings. What his mom, Lady/Madam Li, does not know yet is that he has already met his freefall; a guy who sells candy: Jia.
As the leader lady in the house, Li might outsmart Jan by endorsing Thian and Yang's relationship. Yang's innocent and warm personality trait has bound to Thian, he gives his loyalty to his brother. By far, this is precisely what Lady Li wants. What Lady Li overlook is Thian's big love for his brother; he sees his brother as capable of running the family business as well as his brother could be his escape to the position he never wanted in the very first place.
In this messiness and hungry for power, we have Bua as an ally for Thian and Yang. Soon, Yingphin will join as an ally. As a Ying, she will be perfectly perfect for her Yang. Thian and Yang's brotherhood will be contested in the future. I assume Yang's faith in Thian will never be broken as long as he keeps him on his side. Their relationship test will be my main interest to see in this series and how it will be unfolded.
I enjoy the soupy acting by Lady Jan(chan/Yang's mom) and her maid. These two should win the best couple award. They will be the source of humor in this show; no matter what they have done, people will forgive them because of their comical silliness.
They also have a really good set, a solid interior set. Thanks to the production and creative team for making this historic style into scenes. It looks fresh and lovely.

Taking the tour
While Big Dragon (BD) offers nothing new, it's still worth watching for BL fans. The attraction and cinematic volume for Big Dragon have been explored in KinnPorsche. The hate-to-love relationship story presents in almost the BL series. Handsome and beautiful faces are a basic requirement to be in the BL. And well, after many stories revolving around Engineering program and its students, now, the Thai BL era has entered the BL stories in the Architecture program (Bad Buddy, Big Dragon, etc.).Why is BD still worth watching? My question is as a BL fan what is to expect from the BL series? If you are expecting to see handsome faces, a bit of soft-sexual touch man-to-man, chemistry, a bit of humor and a good production; BD has those all. So, it is worth watching. BD will insert some imaginative stories into the fiction world of BL about very attractive university students who have no barrier in acting to have sex and love between M2M. The question left to answer for the main character Mangkorn and Yai is only, do I love this guy? if yes, what does it take to love him? Answering this question will be the tour of this 8-episode series. I am taking the tour because even though I am not expecting something new from the tour, I am still looking forward to how they will unpack the journey of this tour.

Dropping this cheap drama
I thought their love story would provide something fresh, new, and groundbreaking, departing from fan service. But I was wrong. After watching Episode 4, I already knew and predicted that this drama would have a happy ending. The creators did their best to ensure that the male lead ended up with the female lead without giving the second male lead a chance to shine. This drama could have offered a new perspective if they had chosen to focus on closure, rather than sending the couple off into la-la land, which we already have a million stories of in this domain.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Maybe we are all a bad guy
Tae Ha made a big decision regarding the event he started with the girl, which was part of his journey to Ji Un. However, Ji Un suffered the most due to his love for the uncertain Tae Ha. He received all the blame and would live with the guilt of his affection. Ji Un's sad eyes show the depth of his painful experiences, making his story relatable to many. This series is very well done, with a clear focus and an authentic production style (e.g., I like the color tones and makeup style).Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Is this your type?
The short answer is, "YES." The opening line of this series is very direct, and the storyline begins with Mr. Hans discovering Suan's preferences and asking, "Is this your type?"Jung Jae Bin looks incredibly attractive here, and Jeon Yu Bin provides a nice balance to Jae Bin's dominant appearance. This series is too short; it is a mini-series with about 10 minutes per episode. I believe it shouldn't run weekly; at least two episodes should be released per week.

Do not talk to me anymore....
That's a strong statement to close the pilot episode. Minase seems to have a clear sense of who he is, what he wants, and how he views the situations he finds himself in. As the protagonist of the series, he doesn’t play the "hero" card, which is one reason I like him.Then there's Hirukawa: tall, skinny, and handsome, of course. He's in the shadows, outcast by his peers because of his reputation and his attitude toward his teachers. As a teenager, he's also experiencing domestic violence, with physical signs of abuse on his body.
Sympathy and empathy are the basic foundations that will draw Minase to Hirukawa. Personally, I like this kind of story—it’s both predictable and unpredictable at the same time. The two characters come from different backgrounds, so their endurance and responses to conflict will be shaped by their experiences.
It's still early to say, but I've noticed how Hirukawa intentionally and openly tries to get closer to Minase. Even though Minase attempts to set boundaries by asking Hirukawa not to speak to him, it’s clear that Minase’s walls are coming down. We'll have to wait and see how they navigate this meaningful phase of youth together.

What does eternal mean for Koichi and Oumi?
Based on my experience, any drama with "eternal" related titles have a sad ending. Take a look at Eternal Summer (a Taiwanese Gay movie) or Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (straight romance, 2004) for example. So, I am a bit nervous if Eternal Yesterday will be no different.Koichi and Oumi have each other eyes at the first sight, sparked by their different personality. Their relationship set from as simple as having lunch together to visiting each other homes. Same as Once Again (Korean BL, 2022), one of the boy's fate has revealed in the very first episode. For the rest of the series, we might predict they would be together during the journey and we might start questioning whether they would be together at the end of the journey.
I am interested to know what eternal means for Koichi and Oumi but at the same time, I don't want this sweet BL series to end up like the previous BL series: Once Again. As an audience, I am hoping they will be eternal together physically and emotionally, not just spiritually. I guess I hope they will find a way if they freeze yesterday to eternal, they will have a way to move forward together to eternal today and tomorrow.
This series seems to be shot in the Japanese countryside during the spring, so the background and the landscape scenes look nice. Editing frame by frame seems okay for me with this type of low-budget series. The casts look like professional actors and still form their acting craft. Music is also nice, offering a spring vibe in the Japanese countryside.

Hideyoshi Kan on the BL planet
Most Japanese BLs in nonschool settings have foods to connect and to tell a story. This one operates the same, where we have a handsome, charming young man who runs small food corners (I would not call it a restaurant). While the story, based on the premise, is so much usual, nothing extreme and nothing new-- I think honestly, I don't look forward to how it progresses---Sukiyaken is still worth watching. It is a reminder of what it is like to live on BL planet, where being gay is so acceptable and normal. And seeing Kan Hideyoshi on this planet is so refreshing.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
