Uncontrollably in Love…



This is probably my FAVORITE BL. The actors made the characters come to life. They stepped out of the screen and into my heart. I watched part two first because the YouTube video wasn't marked as being part 2/2, I was instantly hooked, but still scratching my head over some of the flashbacks. After watching I turned to YouTube to satisfy my sweet tooth, this is how I found out about part one and fell deeper in love with RuiWen. If you get a chance, watch some of the interviews with Meng Rui and Wang Bowen, they are so cute that I hope they really are lovers or are the GREATEST Bromance ever. How Meng Rui looks at Wang Bowen melts me into a puddle. Here is a great music video for the song Beautiful by Crush - RuiWen version (yes it's also from Goblin)



Ok. This BL is about two young men who are brought together as master/companion. Xie Yan is the only son of a wealthy family, his parents take him to an orphanage to choose a page boy to grow up with, he instantly decides that Shu Nian is the one for him. They are only 7 and 12 years old (the pic below cracks me up, the boy on the left is 7 and the boy on the right is 12...?, he grows up to be taller later). They are companions until Xie Yan is sent overseas for 6 yrs for schooling, he returns at 25 yrs old. During this time Shu Nian starts working as a manager within the family empire.


I like be this quote that sums it up…

"Shu Nian, who stays in an orphanage, has wanted to be like a princess since childhood—to have a prince come to his rescue. In the end it wasn't a prince who came for him, but rather a hot-tempered “master/Shaoye” called Xie Yan…" - Credit to dairytea & 小鱼 at Chinese BL Translations



Xie Yan returns and resumes to tease and touch Nian, needing constant attention, while taking up with his girlfriend again Yao Jiang. Nian lives in constant fear that Shaoye will find out about his feelings for him but, needing to still feel their closeness. Shaoye feels jealousy for Nian at all times, he can't stand for others to have his attention and often acts out in ways that hurt Nian (emotionally and physically). Yan's temper flares hot and quick and for the most part he seems to be over it when he has vented. Shaoye ends up finding out about Nian's feelings towards him and has him sent away for a time. Yao Jiang played a large part in this over her own jealousy towards Nian. I don't know if it is from homophobia or being scared of how he felt at the knowledge. Honestly I think it's the latter, a case of loving a man because that man is Nian.

"Xie Yan, convinced that he doesn't like men, can’t tolerate the advances of the man beside him. Hence he just wants Shu Nian out of his sight. But he never thought that by sending Shu Nian away, he would also be sending away the very person that can cool his hot temper—his “stabilizer…”

Addicted to Heroin... HONESTLY I'm addicted!

There are just some series that come along, grab you by the throat and don't let go, Addicted did that to me. It's not often the chemistry of two characters can transcend the movie screen and take up a place in your heart and mind. I just finished the series, and can say, I already miss the story deep within my soul. From the word go, this web series had me laughing so hard. Bai Luoyin (Timmy Xu Weizhou) and Gu Hai (Johnny Huang Jingyu) are so... whats the word? not mean... antagonistic towards each other. Gu Hai does things that show his caring but come off as being aggressive (like I used to do when I liked someone on the playground) and Bai Luyin simply retaliates in innocence. The chemistry between Hai and Yin builds over time (Hai is the locomotive and Yin slowly comes to terms with the fact that he isn't going to get away). Hai has a girlfriend throughout some of the series while Yin has broken up with his recently. Yin makes the opening salvo when he is as...

Down the Rabbit Hole…

I recently quit a job due to stress and attitude.  I don't even know how I came across my first K-Drama but I do know what drama was my first, I went straight for the Cream of the Crop, Coffee Prince, 2007, Korea. Which features one of the most gorgeous people I have ever seen in my life, my oppa and I'm sure my future husband (if he likes big women, ran in my circles and wasn't from another country). Saranghe Gong Yoo. I didn't sleep that night and finished the entire series without interruptions. I ate and slept for a few hours.  I lost another whole day to Bromance, 2015 from Taiwan. I binge watched EVERY episode and fell in love Baron Chen and Meghan Lai who share one of the hottest kisses I have ever seen at the end of the entire series (I'm sure that there are YouTube videos dedicated to just that kiss).  Now I didn't know that I was stacking the deck with such HUGE shows. There are still plenty of great shows to watch but these two are number 1&2 in m...
