Honestly I can't believe we're still getting BL series this bad in 2026. This mini series runs about 7 to 8 episodes with a total runtime of just about an hour and it is so boring that I genuinely struggle to find the words. The actors are awkward, the story is as basic as it gets and there is almost nothing about this show worth saving. The makers do try to stir up some drama here and there but even that falls completely flat. Ho Won is a 23 year old university student who spots a man sitting alone at a gay bar and gets attracted to him. The man is Min U, a 33 year old who brushes Ho Won off immediately saying he's too young. Ho Won lies about his age and since he's made a bet with the bartender that he'll get this man home before the night is over, he switches tactics and eventually the two end up at Min U's place and sleep together. Despite being complete opposites in every way there's some kind of pull between them and they go on a couple of dates. But t...
I wish I knew before I started watching the film that this is another one of those Japanese pink films (soft porn). I should have read something before, because occasionally films like this one sneak in, which is NOT why I write this blog. I wanna write about non-porn stuff mostly. And this pink films from Japan fall in the grey area. Honestly I thought these were a thing from 90s. I didn't realize that even now some film makers are trying to cash in on the nostalgia probably.
Simple story here.Yuuki is the CEO of a pharmaceutical company. When he sees a young boy named Takeru, he reminds him of a crush he used to have on this guy in his younger days. He follows this boy and his boyfriend to his apartment. Frustrated, he goes back to some guy asking for a potion to make him young and lo behold, Yuuki is now a 23 year old man. He approaches Takeru and they have mad sex. Turns out because of family pressure, this was Yuuki's first time having sex with anyone. Suddenly a man enters, who happens to be Takeru's father Seiji. Seiji was always gay and his son knew about this but they had been estranged for 10 years. He recognizes the young version of Yuuki and they have a wrestling math for some reason. Suddenly Seiji start to feel weak. Since he used to be Yuuki's first love, he tries to get medicine form, which gives him energy for the two of them to have mad sex, only to make Yuuki and old man again and Seiji dies. Turns out Takeru always preferred od men, so he is happy that Yuuki is back in his life.
As you would expect of pink films, there are 3 very long and "artistically" done sex scenes between two men where you don't see anything but you get an impression of everything. I was not expecting much of a plot here. The purpose of the makers was clear and their target audience was also clear. Thankfully it was just an hour long and with double speed, it ended much sooner. The guys looked ok. Although it was funny to see Yuuki in his older version, since clearly they took the young actor, made his hair grey and added a mustache. It was height if fake makeup and just a lazy job. I am not expecting histrionics here. Overall, if pink films are your thing, then go for it. This is otherwise time wasted on soft porn, which, again I wonder, where is the market for it now? (2/10)
