Drama BL Chinese Movie: A Round Trip to Love

Hello

This time I want to tell about BL movies

There's a lot film, drama, and movies about BL (Boy's Love) from every countries

Before I am homophobic, not too homophobic one, I am just uncomfortable if I see one, that's it. Especially if it was in comic and rated one. I couldn't look the kissing part, only simple kissing in manga or manhwa or anything in drawing about BL. So, that time I said myself that I am homophobic in display. 

But after I knew Yunjae, little by little I could accept the written story one. I am still couldn't read the drawing version, or look straight to BL couple in reality, but I could accept one thing.

We don't know how LOVE would show up to us.

That's it.

And one day, after watching yunjae video and search about evidence in yunjae like usual, I got that yunjae being written in one of short movies by Kim Jho Gwangsoo, Love 100° C

At first i don't have desire to watch, but got curious with BL mives nowdays. And I got to watch clip scene of BL Japanese film, Takumi-kun

Then I search again but still didn't find BL movies that could attract e to watch...

So I finally know why I never stay longer to wath or look BL couples...

Because I realize, I, myself, looking for perfect couple and balance one that would not make me traumatize for watching it...

PERFECT AND PROPORTIONAL SEME AND UKE

The thing is, almost every BL movies, film, drama that I found, didn't fit my criteria. Sometimes the partner had same height or same widht body, or same muscle, or same handsomness and beautifulness, or too ugly to be look, etc. But the worse case for me, if the couple had same muscle size or too beautiful, or their Adam's apple had showed too much for the Uke...

That's why I never want to watch the film or read the comic.

But one day, I found one movie that 'till now made me addict and more deprived of yunjae.

THIS IS MY FIRST BL MOVIES THAT I EVER WATCHED 'TILL ENDING, WATCH FOR NUMEROUS TIMES, AND LOVE!!!!

I RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE!!! TOTALLY RECOMMENDED!!!

The rating for this movie is on 7-8, and I didn't surprise because this movie is really REALLY REALLY GOOD

The movie is based from novel that Lan Lin wrote. There's other of her work that had turned to movie, but not as perfect as this one!!!

The movie and the novel had different plot and I am glad it didn't follow the original.

The original story was really angst and thriller and more dangerous. Lu Feng in the movie much better than the novel...because in the novel he was really and like deprived--man, selfish, arrogant, more crazy and pshyco!!! In the novel, I want to kick the brain hell out of Lu Feng!!!

The actor for the movies was really matched with the character of the novel!!!

Gao Taiyu who at first really not well-know actor, now he was quite famous one because of this movie. Well, when I watched his acting in othe film or movies, his acting skill is good, but when he acted in this movie, he gave 100% his acting skill out!!! He was really perfect the playful, sweet, arrogant, selfish, possessive and obsessesive Lu Feng in the movie. And I am not extravagrant this...but someimes there's part he was hesitated to do, like the kissing part...at first one kissing, he was so awkward...but the next it was good. It was fake, but lovely one. When he acted the intimate and sadist part, he was totally good...I don't know why, but I think he become more confident. I guess Huang Jingxiang, his co-actor, is really good in leading him. Huang Jingxiang si good when acted as Cheng Yi Chen. He is so cute, and when he was in camera, he turned to other person. But in reality, he is cute indeed. At first Gao Taiyu looked uncomfortable with the easy-going Huang Jingxiang, but later, he become good friend with him and sometimes they act like in the movie. Gao Taiyu even still called Huang Jingxiang, Xiao Chen, his called name of Cheng Yi Chen in the movie. Huang Jingxiang told that Gao Taiyu is his Lu Feng and I agree with it. Gao Taiyu is really good acting as Lu Feng.

The setting of the movie is quite immpresive. It was more real and the movie is really balance in everything. Sometimes there's weird part but it's not bad like I would thought. It was totally lovely movie.

The music backgound, Degenerate, you will love this!!! The song is really described the movie and the novel. You will undertand more if you read the novel. The verse part is like what Lu Feng wanted, and the chorus one is ike Cheng Yi Chen wanted. Lu Feng wanted to tied him with every way so Cheng Yichen wouldn't leave him even he hate him. But Cheng Yichen wanted to run from him, wanted to stop, and he was enough with everything by giving up his resentment, but he was degenerate. In chinese, degenerate in here, as far as I know, he was fall to the one he wanted to run away instead.

Degenerate - Gao Taiyu Ver.

The acting part was so far was good. The actor was really good in acting the character. There's part of weird, when Cheng Yi Chen mother died, the way she died was weird. Cheng Yi Chen part when he was drugged was also weird. He was just drank the wine and not a minute he stumbled backward. Hahahaha, maybe that's the weird. So far, it was good though.

There's a reason I ove this movie so much. The actor sometimes made me got a glimpse of Yunho and Jaejoong. There's some fic which had the same plot like this movie, not the novel. Sometimes, Gao Taiyu was remembering me of Yunho in fic who become possessive like Lu Feng. And Huang Jingxiang with his blonde hair was remembering me Jaejoong when he was promoted his album WWW and he had style of beauty and handsome blonde and his lovely kind of Jaejoong in fanfic. That's why this movie really become my drug lately and I become ore crazy about Yunjae because I like Yunjae fic so much.

I wish the movie is being continued, but well hope so. There's some issues happen lately with Gao Taiyu company with the movie production. I just wish the best for them.

For yunjae fans, I recommend this to you. I hope you all will like like it. 

That's for this post, enjoy watching ^^

I've just finished watching it. True, like you said, there are some parts, actually quite lots of scenes that are just plain weird. Haha. But i enjoyed watching it nonetheless.

But I kinda lost at the ending. For me, it's more like an open ending and it's kinda give you the freedom to interpret it on your own. And I can't help to think that Lu Feng died in the end from the crash and Xiao Chen somehow also did not survive due to heartbroken maybe?

In the first part of the movie, the doctor did say Xiao Chen has no will to live anymore. If Lu Feng died, Xiao Chen really gonna lost everything. Because they are each other love and I would say, soulmate. Huhu. I kinda frustrated with the open ending btw. Haih.
