Behind Cut (2021)

 I liked Behind Cut, it was not really original, but the main leads very nice and the story was a little bit Cinderella/Prince Charming (with the poor food delivery guy who becomes a fashion model for the young and talented designer). I really didn't understand what was the issue between them and why they had to have the ordinary separation, but there was also the standard reunion, so it was fine. As happened in other South Korea production, I liked also the rival, and I was sad to not see an happy ending for him. Overall, not particularly original, but comfort nice. HEA. You can see it on Viki. Heat Level: 4/6.

6/6: full nudity mostly hidden by camera angles, they have sex, sexy sounds

Brothers (2021)

 I didn't particularly understand all the critiques around Brothers being about incest... Prab and Chol are older teens when they parents marry and moreover, they knew each other from school since before the marriage and there were already sparks between them... Said that I didn't mind their romance, I also didn't particularly remind Brothers as an interesting series... I actually remind it for the inconsistence details, like, you want to maintain your relationship a secret from your parents, and you openly kiss in the kitchen? Your parents do not approve your relationship, but they use it as an exchange topic to make you attend the college of their choice? So yes, not particularly well plotted. Moreover the other two side couples didn't do much for me, basically their presence was unnecessary. HEA. Heat Level: 3/6.

Golden Blood (2021)

 Golden Blood was not bad, only it wasn't original. Said that, the pair between Sky and Sun was nice, I liked better Sun, with his stoic behavior, but also Sky, and his bratty attitude, was good. Sincerely I haven't much to say about this series, maybe, for once, the starting point for the plot was interesting, to say the least: Sun was adopted by Sky's father since they have the same blood type, and Sky's father wants to have a reserve of blood at hand in case Sky needs it... Ok, it's a little bit creepy, but sort of interesting. HEA. You can see it on WeTV. Heat Level: 4/6.
