Love Supremacy Zone (2024)

Sweet and DarK

This was an easy watch, mostly sweet with a bunch of rays of darkness as death keeps hanging in the ait in this life turned in to a game where the protagonist gets an insight to the other peoples feeling about them...

The story is okay it has some odd parts, some interesting parts, some that have you thinking... some parts are under developed and come to an end a bit to fast. While one of our male leads is sugar, spice and everything nice the other guy is kind of bland... Having what makes people take pity on him be the most interesting thing about him... he does have a nice smile but I did not really connect with him on any level at all...

The second male lead on the other hand catered to my guilty pleasure bad boy gone cute and gave major SLS... The other characters are also pretty decent , lovable and interesting, except for some bullies but those wer okay written and having them not be so nice kind of goes without saying.

The kind of original plot twist in this drama make me want to rate it higher but the moments of cringe, me not really understanding some stuff and the male leads blandness keep me from upping the score.

So what can I say it was an okay watch, definitely worth watching but not a must watch.

JUST ANOTHER SO SO KOREAN BL FOR ME

okay the drama was good and the story went good throughout the 8 episodes , but maybe I expected even more than what just happened in this drama.
At first I got excited that this was like an RPG setting like Myeong Ha was put into a game and had the mission to make Yeo Won Happy. it was so interesting for me at first like okay what's gonna happen next , how will this turn to be something like that, but along the way it got me bored, the run time was long like almost 40 minutes and I am so so thankful with that coz we are no longer in a 10-15 minute KBL days, but I think the run time was too long for the story. another thing is, what was that error occurring whenever like Myeong Ha seems loving Yeo Won ? and why did it suddenly went down to like 15 days from 200+ days on a mission ? what was the error supposed to mean? hmm or maybe I did not understood the reason because I got bored.
I was expecting a love story between Sang Woon and Kyung Hoon, but they did not had a chance, I was actually assuming that what Kyung Hoon's mentioned a friend was Sang Woon after he was like on a phone call or something and then he was being asked by his sister but it was not shown there, and I got confused on Sang Woon's character here, like at first he looks like a school bully and I thought maybe he will be the bad guy here but he suddenly became someone who likes Myeong ha ? and then I hated it that Myeong Ha hates him and he was like he was put aside so much ! what the heck ! he was the one I was looking forward on this drama but they ruined his character here.
And on the part where Myeong Ha wrote his choice between between his grand mother and Yeo Woon, why did everyone forgot him but Yeo Woon did not, I was confused on the part where Myoeng Ha and Yeo Woon supposed to meet like after Myeong Ha disappear and came back on the game, but it seems they have came at the different time but suddenly they met ? HAHAH did I just did not understood everything? I just find it confusing , I feel like they just made everything fast and made remedy to bring a good ending .
Myeong Ha's acting was so great here , but I am not satisfied with the acting of Yeo won , I mean he is so handsome and love his height, but I don't think he is compatible with Myeong Ha. I just feel bad Sang Won here. anyways Myeong he in my eyes looks like a male version of Jo Bo Ah. is it just me ?
all in all just a so so, nice cinematography by the way and nice settings , just another so so KBL around, I hope they would do better casting in the future

Beautiful Hidden Message

I first chanced upon similar concept of entering a game in "Memories of the Alhambra" which I totally dropped due to the intensity. So, I'm SOOO glad that we have KBL version of similar concept of sort.

I really love their chemistry, they are such a sweet couple, especially the innocence of Yeo Woon. In meanwhile, Myung Ha' voice brings so much calming and assuring effect, I can listen to him talk all day long.

As usual from Korean show (BL or not), 1st 2 episodes are a bit slow and once it picks up, it's really engaging!

I love the hidden message about self-love towards the end, where it's indirectly teaching us to love ourselves first before making others happy, which is an important message. Often times, people misunderstand meaning of love because of how it is depicted as needing to sacrifice for others, etc in typical drama. So, it's beautiful to watch this KBL takes a lead in this.

Plus, I'm happy to see Geon Han entering BL scenes, showing more people are open to BL!

Overall, I love this show a lot, esp the couples. I really want seaso 2, or special, just to see this couple having their lovey dovey moments pls!

One of the most beautiful things I've ever saw in my whole life

As a gay men dealing with depression and suicidal tendencies my whole life, the last episode of this show hitted me like nothing EVER did
Not only the actors on it are perfect, but the main message of the show is simply life changing. I really hope this show gets the recognition it deserves!
I cried like a baby for hours and hours after watching it for the first time

Even tho the show is really cute and and funny from the first episode untill the 6th, it takes a new direction I really never saw it coming the last 2 episodes. The ending is so sweet. Myung Ha and Yeo Woon receiving the love and care they both always wanted is such a beautiful message. I didn't feel the plot messy or confusing in any way.
A must see, definetly

New standard!

Totally exceeded my expectations! K-bl starting to lose its spark last year, everything just goes downhill after the eighth sense and our dating sim released, because those two became the standard, the bar is so HIGH, making other series is nothing compared to them. BUT! Love for love's sake is just so good, it surpassed the bar! Or even better, they raising the bar!

The only minus from this series is its duration. It's too short for delivering such a complex storyline. The series itself is already good but there's still some confusing part like the explanation of why myung ha got transferred to game world, sang won's feeling development towards myung ha, and also who's that person that myung ha called 'sunbae'. It feels like everything just floating around without proper explanation.

If only they make it longer.. 10 episodes would be perfect! At least they got another ±50 minutes to explain it more thoroughly.

But overall, it's good. it's MORE than good actually. So so so good. 2024 k-bls after LFLS are gonna STRUGGLE bc the bar once again has been lifted higher than last time!

For the acting, i don't have anything to complain! Total superb. Also hands down to the casting staff, they choose the perfect myung ha and yeo woon!

Lee Taevin potrayed Myung Ha so perfectly! The emotions reach me thru the screen! I can feel how frustrated and sad myung ha is! His eyes just speaks! Very good acting!

Cha Joowan.. i— i am so satisfied with him as Yeo Woon. His acting is so good! He's just soooo precious like he can deliver how vulnerable yeo woon can be when he's around myung ha. And not to mention how puppy he is T_T

My favorite scene is totally when he begs.

Oh, also, i LOVE the little kisses T_T on the lips, on the cheek, I love all! It's so cute +_+ and for the REAL kiss, it's an easy top 5 best kiss of entire K-BL kiss. I don't actually want to mention this but, the way yeo woon smile in between their kiss is justtt givee a bit more flavor to the kissing scene itself and I've been crazy about it for these past few days!! They ate, totally ate.

That's it for me!

I didnt exepect I will invest my feeling for this series.

Accidentally stumbled acrosss and find this series, honestly I saw some shorts on but it was really not much doesnt gave me mood to watch it. But i was bored so I think I wanted to try this series and I didnt expect this series would hits me this much.

(PROS) :
- Story : Very unexpected storyline, altough I literally tought it just basic romance story line with a game stuff?? I almost gave up until I find out Yeowoon story. I feel sad and I stay for his story. But again, expect the unexpected from this series. This series really not playing with the plotline.

-Acting/Cast: Everyone in this series does amazing job. But kuddos for Lee Tae Vin & Cha Joo Wan, they really all-in with their character which makes me invest so much with this two character. I want to hug Yeowoon so bad. T_T

(CONS) :
- Music/OST : I felt like this series seems doesnt have a proper Original Sound Track. T___________T
You know theres many scene that if they have their own ost it would makes it memorable. Well most of them is already memorable imo even without OST. But I think OST will definetly works like icing on the cake for this series. This series is already done really well, very well. But OST really really matters to the audience feelings. :)))))))

Heartfelt, Earnest and Well-Performed

This is one of those rare dramas where I really have no notes. It’s really hard to comment when the narrative is nailed so effectively.

It’s really this beautiful story about self-love, found family and the enrichment people add to our lives. There are some sci-fi elements but they are very well done, the effects are solid and overall it enhances the story.
The acting is really great, you know it’s solid when you just get completely soaked into the character’s emotions. The leads have good chemistry and complement each other very well.
I was really amazed by Cha YeoWoon’s performance. His first impression is so murky, just a character at his absolutely lowest and his eyes express so much sadness. When he finally breaks down it’s like release since he’s been keeping it all pent up. And when he finally starts to build social nets, he GLOWS. It’s like his whole aura changes literally and figuratively, it’s incredible.

Music is used well. The right music at the right time and quiet when scenes need to breathe.

The ending was perfect. It flipped the narrative just enough to fully drive home the message this story was trying to tell.

Do yourself a favor and watch this.

I... am speechless

I just finished this and not gonna lie, I am in shambles. What the hell was this and why did no-one warn me?? I was expecting it to be all cute and simple, Our Dating Sim-style, a nice little watch for the weekend before starting uni again, and here I am, 1AM and crying over a videogame character. That's just great.
I wasn't expecting it to be good at all - I initially watchlisted it because I watched Boys Planet and Woongki (the guy who plays Kyung Hoon) was in it and I loved him. But oh my God I got so invested, I actually watched five episodes one after the other in one go.

Things I liked (a lot):
- Acting. It was AMAZING- the two main leads have a lot of emotional scenes, and they handled them perfectly. Their acting was so natural it didn't take me out of the story at all. The rest of the characters were pretty one-dimensional, but I liked their performances as well. Woongki is so cute with those glasses, I hope he stars in more series.
- Story. It's bizarre as fuck, you don't see it coming at all (as I mentioned already), you think you're signing up for a cutesy romance series and you end up having an existential crisis. The videogame premise is super interesting, virtually not like anything I've ever seen before, and it adds a lot of stakes and pressure to the situation. You also start not knowing what tf is going on (why is he talking to that dude, are they friends? Why is he in this game? etc), and eventually (kind of) figure it out. My interpretation of the weird-ass ending was that he'd k*lled himself and he'd been in a sort of limbo while he was playing the game, and that dude was Death and was giving him a second chance to fall in love and be happy. I liked that. Hell, I'm not one to enjoy stress, but between this and The Bear it seems like I might like it more than I thought.
- Romance. It's slow, it's cute, and seeing Yeowoon grow to love Tae Myung was so entertaining - his little smile towards the end whenever they were together made me so happy. Them getting together and it not being that big of a deal was actually kind of refreshing, like I kept waiting for a big confession scene but before I knew it they were breaking up lol

Things I'm on the fence about:
- That being said, the story can be a little bit confusing at times. Maybe I'm just slow lol, but it seemed like there were some loose ends? Like that A or B choice he had to make at the hospital, after failing to choose between his grandma and Yeowoon - the second one. I don't remember what it was, but he had a time limit, and I don't think he actually chose anything? And then: at the end, Yeowoon is in his room and finds the pen and wants to save him, but I don't really get what he actually did? Did he save Tae Myung? Was that why he was revived? I'm guessing that version of the story got deleted, and that's why he wasn't in absolute shambles when Tae Myung called him at the end, so what was that for? Idk, the ending had me crying and everything but I was also a bit lost.
- The AGE GAP. Was that really necessary? Just have him be 20, you can be depressed at 20 (trust me, I know). No need for him to be a DECADE older than his counterpart. I GUESS he's 19 in the videogame, but mentally he's still 29, and he treats Yeowoon like a kid. That was funny at first, when they were becoming friends, but later on it felt weird as shit. I didn't really like that.
- I guess some of the charactarizations were also confusing at times, like for example: is Yeowoon a sad, lonely loser or is he a star of the track team with a ton of followers and brand deals raining on him? Is Tae Myung a bad boy who intimidates all the bullies or is he a nice guy that never uses violence? I never understood why they were so scared of him.
- That's more of a nitpick, but the breakup almost at the end wasn't necessary. You just hurt Yeowoon more than was needed and you shoot yourself in the foot in the process. Great.

Conclusion: amazing, showstopping, never seen before. Would absolutely recommend. I'm now contemplating how sad and meaningless my life is, which. Great.

A new favorite drama

I started watching this drama without knowing a thing about the story so every moment of it was completely surprising for me since the beginning! It's a very unit plot with actors that gave life to the characters so well that I couldn't stop looking at the screen. It also has such a beautiful meaning behind the story, so it can make us reflect about ourselves and how we see the world.
It went straight from an unknown drama to my favorite one in just 3 days. I'm really hoping for another one about Kyunghoon or Sangwon, or even a season two for the main couple, both would be amazing!

This KBL was a masterpiece!

Very recommended to watch it! I really love it and I still can't move on from this, this is my favorite Korean BL Drama forever! The plot was so intense and unpredictable, what a masterpiece! Great job!?

A little off about it is the broadcasting, I think that if you make 2 episodes per week that will be perfect because there's a lot of cliffhanger there and it will gain popularity because of assumptions and predictions of the drama but over all it's okay!

Love for love's sake is not just a normal bl but it was a masterpiece because of the story, cast and production. I hope for season 2 because the happy ending scenes was so short I need more episodes of them being happy together!??
