Innocent (2021)

 Innocent had a good idea, and, being short, it didn't feel like they dragged too much the story, but in a way I think it was a little bit confusing. They decided to mix the story with flashback and indeed, the most important part of the story, how Yu Shi/Noah and Wu Zheng met, was sort of ruined by that. Moreover, one of the point it made me wary to see the series at first, Wu Zheng having a girlfriend, is basically non-existing, cause Wu Zheng leaves her right after meeting Yu Shi. This is a part of the series I liked, Wu Zheng is totally committed to the relationship, even if he hadn't previous experience with men. I think the bipolarism of Yu Shi/Noah wasn't well dealt, and above all, I doubt Wu Zheng could have been easily understand and accept that like they showed. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala and Viki. Heat Level: 4/6.

My Sweet Dear (2021)

 My Sweet Dear is esthetically beautiful but it fell a little short on the story. Yoon Do Gun and Choi Jung Woo are good together, and even if the story is not particularly sexy, there are sexy vibes between them, making you feel like you had seen more than what you really had. Other than that, this is a typically enemies to lovers thrope, not particular original, and above all, I think they didn't give us enough insight on the character of Choi Jung Woo, therefore losing a chance to make him something more than just a sexy eye candy. HEA. You can see it on Viki and WeTV. Heat Level: 3/6.

Paint with Love (2021)

 Paint with Love was funny, but it has some holes in the plot that prevent me from fully enjoy the story. For example, why Phab had to go work for Maze, when he has just received a commission that fully covers what he had to repay Maze? and why the amount of the debt is oscillating everytime? And how come Phab, who has never worked as a graphic designer, is so good in using all the tools for his work without anyone teaching him... I could go on, but that is just in the first episodes... Then there is the side plot, who could have been good and instead it felt like I had to hate all the characters involved, the two actors, their managers... totally disliked that part. So, in the end, I think the fault here is of the screenwriter, actors and setting were good, and there were sparks of possibly being a good series. HEA. You can see it on GagaOOLala.
