The serial prequel to the film His (2020), which was produced in 2019 and refers to the period of 2006, when the destinies of two young men collide completely by chance in the seaside city of Fujisawa, which is part of the largest megalopolis in the world - the Tokyo agglomeration with 38 million inhabitants and we can get to the center of Tokyo from it via the combined cities of Kamakura, Jakohama and Kawasaki. The story is interesting, albeit undemanding, and the main two 17-year-old characters (Nagisa and Shun) are excellently played by two Japanese actors aged 19 and 21. A lot of space is also devoted to other girls' characters. The fates of the boys gradually develop until finally Shun starts working part-time where Nagisa does, in a hostel on the city island of Enoshima. I also appreciate the fact that everything develops naturally, without unnecessary intrigues, fights and violence, and during the entire series there is that "something" extra, the music and the processing are almost faultless.



Seriálový prequel k filmu His (2020), který byl vyroben v r. 2019 a vztahuje se do období roku 2006, kdy se střetávají zcela náhodně osudy dvou mladíků v přímořském městě Fudžisawa, které je součástí největší megapole světa - tokijské aglomerace s 38 mil obyvatel a do centra Tokia se z něho dostaneme přes srostlá města Kamakura, Jakohama a Kawasaki. Příběh je zajímavý, i když nenáročný a hlavní dvě 17ti leté postavy (Nagisa a Shun) zahrány výborně dvěma japonskými herci ve věku 19 a 21 let. Dost prostoru je věnováno i dalším postavám dívek. Osudy kluků se postupně vyvíjí až nakonec Shun začne pracovat brigádně tam, kde Nagisa, v hostelu na městském ostrově Enoshima. Cením si i toho, že se vše vyvíjí přirozeně, bez zbytečných intrik, rvaček a násilí a v průběhu celého seriálu je tam to "něco" navíc, hudba a zpracování téměř bez výtek.

"Best Filipino Movie Ever". Well, in my opinion, it no longer applies. Yes, I can include it among the better films of this country, so much tested in the past by the immense poverty that was already sown by the Spanish colonizers of the time and perfected by the Americans. On the other hand, this country is the only island of Christianity in the sea of Buddhism, Taoism and Islam that is coming from the south, many inhabitants have parts of words or whole Spanish words in their names and speak completely differently than the surrounding countries, including the fact that they speak a second language after filipino and tagalog is filipino english. The film gave me a lot, but it has already shown the ravages of time. What I appreciate most is the conveyance of that time, poverty, lack of law and crime, solid acting. The story isn't bad either. It is worse with the feeling itself, the perception of the whole story, because I only had a very bad copy at my disposal, otherwise it would certainly be much deeper.
So goodbye, Julio and Ligayo (the actors of the main characters are still alive today).



"Nejlepší filipínský film všech dob". Tak to už dle mě dávno neplatí. Ano, mohu jej zařadit mezi ty lepší filmy této země, tolik v minulosti zkoušené nesmírnou chudobou, kterou už zaseli tehdejší španělští kolonizátoři a dokonali Američané. Na druhé straně ale tento stát je jediným ostrovem křesťanství v moři buddhismu, taoismu a z jihu se ne něj valícího islámu, mnozí obyvatelé mají ve svých jménech slovní části a nebo celá slova španělská a mluví úplně jinak, než okolní země včetně toho, že druhým jazykem po filipínštině a tagalogštině je filipínská angličtina. Film mi dal hodně, ale už se na něm projevil zub času. Nejvíce si vážím zprostředkování tehdejší doby, chudoby, nedostatku práva a zločinnosti, solidních hereckých výkonů. Příběh také není špatný. Horší je to se samotným pocitem, vnímáním celého příběhu, neboť jsem měl k dispozici jen velmi špatnou kopii, jinak by byl jistě daleko hlubší.
Tak sbohem, Julio a Ligayo (herci hlavních postav dodnes žijí).

For the second time, Enoshima, a small pilgrimage and tourist island visited annually by several million visitors and which is part of the Japanese city of Fujisawa with a population of half a million, is part of Greater Tokyo, the largest agglomeration in the world. For the first time in this beautiful place, the story of His: Koisuru Tsumori Nante Nakatta (2019) series unfolds, which is so great that it even slightly surpasses for me this nice, simple and honest series and two pure souls, which I deliberately chose for its shorter footage and I wanted to take a breather. That confession of love, of attraction, was "Japanese" to the core, so austere and slyly sweet that it put a smile on my face. And since I rated His: Koisiru ... 9.5, I also rate this darling serosh highly, 8.8


Už podruhé Enoshima, malý poutní a turistický ostrov, jež navštíví ročně několik milionů návštěvníků a který je součástí půlmilionového japonského města Fudžisawa, a to je součástí Velkého Tokia, největší aglomerace světa. Poprvé na tomto krásném místě se rozvíjí příběh seriálu His: Koisuru Tsumori Nante Nakatta (2019), který je skvělý tak, že ještě malinko u mě přebije tento pěkný, jednoduchý a upřímný seriál a dvou čistých duších, který jsem si schválně vybral pro jeho kratší stopáž a chtěl jsem si oddechnout. To vyznání lásky, přitažlivosti, bylo "japonské" až na půdu, tak stroze a toporně milé, až mi vykouzlilo úsměv na tváři. A protože His: Koisiru ... jsem hodnotil 9.5, tak tento miloučký seroš hodnotím také vysoko, 8.8

After starring in Together With Me, Max and Tul were given the opportunity to take on the lead roles in this genre-bending series. I think they've matured even more as actors, especially the manly Max (Tan), who also became a wonderful symphony, perhaps even because they finally "brushed" off his forehead (in addition, the battles in his performance were convincing, no "just like"), Tul (Bun) was cute as always, it just bothered me a little bit how the Thai hairdressers made him stiff with the combing, but that's beside the point.
The overall quality is very high, I appreciate that they were no longer the "little boys" from freshman year at university.
The story is a bit long and overcombined. The first major erotic rapprochement between Tan and Bun in the seventh volume is so convincing, wonderful, and at the same time there is no need for big erotic scenes, that I haven't seen anything like it for a long time ...
If I remember this series, it will not be the shooting games and the complexity of the plot, but the almost perfect main pair of young men will always come to mind as dominant, both acting and appearance ... so I leave this review with the words of Buna Tan: " you smell beautiful" ...

Po hlavních rolích v Together With Me dostali Max a Tul možnost se ujmout hlavních rolí tohoto žánrem zcela odlišného seriálu. Myslím, že herecky ještě více vyspěli, především mužný Max (Tan), ze kterého se navíc stal úžasný sympoš, možná už i tím, že mu konečně "odčesali" afinku z čela (navíc ty bitky v jeho provedení byly přesvědčivé, žádné "jen jako"), Tul (Bun) byl roztomilý jako vždycky, jen mi trošku vadilo to, jak ho ti thajští vlásenkáři prznili tím česáním, ale to je nepodstatné.
Celková kvalita velice vysoká, oceňuji, že už to nebyli "malí chlapečci" z prváku na univerzitě.
Příběh trošku zdlouhavý a překombinovaný. První větší erotické sblížení Tana a Buna v sedmém díle je tak přesvědčivé, nádherné, a přitom nemusí dojít k velkým erotickým scénám, že jsem podobné dlouho neviděl ...
Pokud si vzpomenu na tento seriál, tak to nebudou střílečky a komplikovanost děje, ale vždy se mi jako dominantí vybaví téměř dokonalá hlavní dvojice mladých mužů, a to jak herecky, tak zjevem ... takže se loučím s touto recenzí slovy Buna Tanovi: "voníš nádherně" ...

Love is kind. Love doesn't always have happy endings. Love hurts sometimes. And luck ...?... it has a limit.

I don't think this series is a fairy tale (it doesn't end like that, it's HUMAN) and it's not really for teenagers. It's a great series for adults, not just for men who like men, untwisted, well-flowing, no frills, no Asian affectations, HUMAN.
I was most captivated by the fates of the characters, and apart from the memorable supporting roles, of which there were several, it was the four main characters (all four actors were 25 or 26 years old at the time of filming). They were excellently, sensitively and civilly played, portrayed, each one was different. If I had to highlight, I was most impressed by Aric Chen as Hai Quing and Charles Lin as Jimmy.
The visuals of the characters, the masks, the hairstyles, the costumes - in one word, amazing.
Anyway, I recommend it to almost all GT users, because this piece can't possibly offend anyone...


Láska je laskavá. Láska vždy nemá šťastné konce. Láska někdy bolí. A štěstí ...?... to má limit.

Myslím si, že tento seriál není žádná pohádka (ani tak nekončí, je ČLOVĚČÍ) a ani není moc pro náctileté. Je to skvělý seriál pro dospělé, a to nejen pro muže, co mají rádi muže, nevykroucený, dobře plynoucí, bez kudrlinek, bez asijských afektů, LIDSKÝ.
Nejvíce mě uchvátily osudy postav, a kromě zapamatovatelných vedlejších rolí, kterých bylo několik, to byla čtyřka postav hlavních (všichni čtyři herci v době natáčení měli 25 a nebo 26 let). Byly výborně, citlivě a civilně zahrány, vykresleny, každá byla jiná. Pokud bych měl vyzdvihnout, tak nejvíce mě zaujal Aric Chen jako Hai Quing a Charles Lin jako Jimmy.
Vizuál postav, masky, účesy, kostýmy - jedním slovem úžasné.
Každopádně doporučuji skoro všem uživatelům GT, protože toto dílko snad nemůže nikoho urazit ...

A beautiful gift from the Ugly Duckling and Susannah in the form of subtitles for this new and shining Taiwanese series - the first series. As Susannah writes on their site, so we don't forget to watch the very end after the closing credits in the final sixth episode, and I too swear and hope that the second series will be just as good.
In one of the two main characters, the Japanese singer Yu Teng Yang (also known by the simple abbreviation YU) in the role of Zhou Shu Yi caught my attention with his interesting physicality and acting, and this is his acting debut.


Krásný dárek od Škaredého Káčatka a Susannah v podobě titulků k tomuto novotou zářícímu taiwanskému seriálu - první sérii. Jak píše Susannah na jejich stránkách, abychom se nezapoměli podívat na úplný konec za závěrečnými titulky v posledním šestém dílu a také já nadávám a doufám, že druhá série bude rovněž tak dobrá.
Zaujal mě v jedné ze dvou hlavních postav zajímavým fyzičnem i herectvím japonský zpěvák Yu Teng Yang (známý též pod jednoduchou zkratkou YU) v roli Zhou Shu Yi, přitom je to jeho herecký debut.

A very nice Korean series, which made me want to watch a higher rating on the IMDb and ČSFD heterac servers than here (unfortunately). An above-average work in all aspects, where the actor Jang Eui Soo in the role of Gook appealed to me the most. When the overall good impression prevails, the viewer is willing to overlook even small things that would probably be filmed differently in Europe. I recommend including the series To My Star, which was filmed by the same director.


Moc hezký korejský seriál, k jehož zhlédnutí mě přimělo vyšší hodnocení na heteráckých serverech IMDb a ČSFD, než tady (bohužel). Po všech stránkách nadprůměrné dílo, kde nejvíce mě oslovil herec Jang Eui Soo v roli Gooka. Když převáží celkový dobrý dojem, je divák ochoten přehlédnout i drobnosti, které by se třeba v Evropě natočily asi jinak. Doporučuji včetně série To My Star, kterou natočila stejná režisérka.

A very powerful story of two men from high school to their forties, extremely deep, searching for themselves and their love despite the traditional values of Japanese society. This shorter series is well above average in all evaluation criteria and will leave an indelible mark on the soul of the receptive viewer...

Velmi silný příběh dvou mužů od střední školy až po čtyřicítku, nesmírně hluboký, kteří hledají sami sebe a svou lásku navzdory tradičním hodnotám japonské společnosti. Tento kratší seriál je vysoko nad průměrem ve všech kritériích hodnocení a vnímavému divákovi zanechá nesmazatelnou stopu v duši ...

I am meeting the director Hwang Da-Seul for the second time in a short time (the first time was the series Where Your Eyes Linger) and she did not disappoint me again. A beautiful, magical appetizer among BL series will captivate the viewer right from the first episode. It's just that everything is "done" completely differently than the usual scheme. The characters are perfectly written and even better acted, especially the excellent acting performance of the two main representatives in civilian age of 31 and 22 years stands out.

Actor Kang Seo Joon is in trouble because he beat up his best friend, also an actor, in one of the bars. But in reality it was different and Kang doesn't remember much because he was drunk, only his friend got into a fight with a bar guest and blamed it on Kang to hurt him in public opinion and climb the popularity ladder ahead of him. The owner of the agency Kim Pil Hyun, who represents Kang, has to quickly "clean up" him from his luxury apartment to one of his rental houses in the suburbs of Seoul due to intrusive journalists for a while, and pushes him to the young tenant, an introverted, modest and order-loving chef from a bistro Han Ji Woo, who is waiting for a roommate so he doesn't have to pay such a high rent himself.

It's rare for me to look at how much is left until the end, because I wish there were many more episodes ahead of me (I have the opposite tendency with most other BL series). No unnecessary detours and running the story into curls that only delay and lead nowhere, an excellent contrast of the silent and wall-building Han and the chatty Kang with an often magical smile, who always says what he thinks and most importantly - these two beings are hit by the arrow of the most beautiful feeling in the world, what anyone and anywhere could wish for. How will they deal with it when the circumstances of each of them are completely different and public opinion in South Korea is not in favor of such relationships, especially when one of them is a famous actor?

I really enjoyed this little series. As if he wasn't even from the Philippines (except for the teacher). The story is simple, without decorative or unnecessarily delaying frills, covid-CURRENT and MODERN. Sympathetic actors, beautiful opening song (I deducted one point for the Sound because the music in the middle of the fifth and especially the fourth part is very out of tune, fake), excellent editing and processing. The credit for the great impression goes to all the actors, but especially to the two main ones - 20-year-old JC Alcantara (Mico) and 25-year-old Tony Labrusca (Xavier), born in the USA, and above all the creators themselves, who created this cute pandemic series at a minimal cost.

Moc se mi tento menší seriál líbil. Jako kdyby ani nebyl z Filipín (až na učitelku). Příběh jednoduchý, bez okrasných nebo zbytečně zdržujících kudrlinek, covidově SOUČASNÝ a MODERNÍ. Sympatičtí herci, krásná úvodní píseň (jeden bod za Zvuk jsem snížil za to, že v pátém a především čtvrtém díle je uprostřed hudba hodně rozladěná, falešná), výborný střih a zpracování. Zásluhu na skvělém dojmu mají všichni herci, ale především dva hlavní - dvacetiletý JC Alcantara (Mico) a pětadvacetiletý Tony Labrusca (Xavier), narozený v USA a především tvůrci samotní, kteří za minimalistické náklady vytvořili tento roztomilý pandemický seriálek.

Only the first series rated:
The character of Gavreel was played very nicely. A smile accompanied this series during the pandemic for a considerable part, although there were also sadder moments. This part is definitely one of the best, above average, the creators handled the time of the first wave of covid very well, it is original in its processing and it is interesting that not only nice and handsome actors played there, but also actresses (not a single twisted creature). We had to wait until the last episode for the kiss, and it was a beautiful conclusion to this successful series.

I laughed with gusto many times. How to perceive this series must be in the person himself (he must understand Asia) to distinguish the subtlety of the playback here, which is brought here in a spicy form deliberately sometimes to the point of pie creation and complements the overall comic, from some other Asian productions, where naivety, the snobbery or the twistedness is too much for non-Asian viewers. Those who don't get it will condemn the series unnecessarily, but that's their business, not mine. The main thing is that everything has not slipped into a set of "western" sitcoms, when the viewer is "forced" to laugh at every stupid thing in the form of constantly imposed "laughing viewers". Here, the viewer is left with room to consider how to react. This excellent Thai part just ended in January 2021 and I can only write that it was a really nice experience.
Both main characters here are very original. A frail and youthful looking Chonlatee and a sporty type Tonhon with a chest tattoo (which has a meaning in the story - Navigator vs. Ocean). In addition to light entertainment, deeper thoughts also appear in the series, e.g. in one of the late episodes, Chonlatee's mother Nam literally flashes in an argument: "...BETTER TO BE HATED FOR WHAT YOU ARE THAN TO BE LOVED FOR WHAT YOU ARE NOT... .” and I also appreciate the overall message, the attitude towards men who like men, which certainly has an impact on the audience.
The two other gay characters Ai and Nhai (Ni) are also excellent, and the girls Miriam and Pang also contributed to the good fun. There are quite a few fans of these series here at GT, and I definitely recommend this piece to them.

It's no glory. The film contains typical features of film production in non-Islamic Asian countries - naivety, playback, the implausibility of some scenes, comedy that will make an Asian viewer laugh and a European one rather cry. But take everything I wrote with an exaggeration. Otherwise, I like Thai art, but not all of it.

And now the pros. Once the film is Thai, I feel freer because I know that where it is necessary to portray the story, there may (or may not) be intimate actors, unlike the current Chinese-censored production. Decent quality copy with easy to read English subtitles and looks good on the boys, especially Daniel.

I had to go back and watch some scenes in the movie again because of the bad picture quality and English. subtitles and if I think about the "badness" then a fairly decent plot unfolds with well-known pinoy actors (Coco, Sid), with a small component of gay content and an ending that I did not expect...

The Joseon Dynasty (Joseon) ruled Korea for more than 500 years before it was overthrown in 1910 by the conquering Japanese. From this minimalist series, it is not clear in which era exactly the story fell, but that is not important in the end.
Anyway, right at the beginning and with the previews, one could have expected a big story, drama, but after the first episode, everything slipped into a mini-form, both in the cast, the length of the episodes and the story itself. Apparently, the creators also struggled with a low budget.
The story, the idea (perhaps even according to reality) excellent, but for the most part unused, the potential that was offered was tons - like not many places, really a pity. But I don't mean to punish the creator.
The main three characters are cast by three stars from other Korean series and projects that are very well rated here on GT - Where Your Eyes Linger (Jang) - sk tit, Mr. Heart (Lee) - series sk tit and movie cz tit by monvi and Wish You II (Kang) - has cz tit by karcikarl, I list the civil nicknames of the actors in parentheses and the actors are also listed in that order on the three-photo in the Pictures folder. I liked Lee - Choi Ki Wan the most in terms of character and acting, who appeared disguised as a woman for 95% of the series.
Extremely pleasant, delicious, but I was impressed by the set, costumes, and sound. I learned how Koreans used to dress, how they lived. Overall satisfaction, BUT ... with a hugely wasted potential of the subject ...
