WISH YOU: Your Melody from My Heart

I am truly amazed as to how far Korean movies has advance. I watch K-series on mental illness and now this bold giant step into the world of gays. It's like a coming out of K-movies/series. Beautiful music, fantastic script and direction. The two main characters are so well portrayed. If you are a K-movie fan, I urge you to not miss this show.

This show was boring and quite unexciting for a while and when finally something happened between the main couple the drama was already over.

I'm aware it's a mini series but dramas like Where your Eyes linger prove that a lot of emotions and storytelling can be put in a mini series without seeming over the top or rushed.

This one pretty much went from 0 to 100 in one episode.

What I liked about it was the soundtrack (it's a music drama, duh) and the acting.

I found this on Netflix. I am a new fan to BL. I found this touching, perhaps because I loved the title song and the score. I wanted it to be longer to explore the central relationship. For me it could easily expand to a series, as I enjoyed the supporting characters, as well. I appreciate gay dramas where it gets away from the many stresses of life today and can simply be romantic and also not necessarily explicit. i liked the leads and their music backgrounds lended credibility to their characters.

I truly loved this movie. The performance was outstanding. The music was amazing. I honestly wish to see a sequel or at least a series from the two main characters Kang In Soo and Sang Lee. They work very well together. I'd like to applaud the directors, the cast and the whole team for making such an emotionally capturing film. You did a great job everyone!! I wish I could have the opportunity to meet you in person to just say that I am truly your fan. With all my love and support. I wish you the best.

Me: London, middle-aged viewer and gay man

This review won't take long because there's not a great deal to discuss ... there were the makings of a genuine and tender portrait of same-sex love as it emerges from the shadows, but I found it token and superficial. There was very little by way of background to the two main characters and has already been pointed out, it traded in not much more than two pretty guys holding glances with each other. There was a lack of dilemma, a lack of bite. By the end of it also, I was bothered that the would be pop-star was not a gay actor. I don't mean for a minute that only gay people can play gay roles, but if a straight actor is going to play gay, then he needs to do it convincingly and with commitment. The ultimate 'I love you too' kiss left me feeling totally cheated. Kissing, and it's invariably coy depiction in Korean dramas I am well used to, but the boy-singer looked like he was terrified of catching Covid. It was a film without heart and without any frisson. Basically, a quick two-reeler to cash in on the 'pink pound'.
