Color Rush [2021]

 Yup, looks like I took a break from Chinese dramas and swapped them for Korean. And Color Rush was a pleasant surprise for me. Before it, I gave a try to You make me dance and well, the story itself was good, but it was also kinda cringe-worthy so I went into Color Rush hoping to find it less so. And I have to say that it definitely didn't disappoint. There were almost no cringe-worthy scenes in this. Like, maybe one or two, which is tolerable. 

The premise is that some people are Mono, meaning they can only see things in gray-scale. The MC of this movie is so. And people who are Mono can only see color when they meet and are with their Probe. A person that basically enables them to see outside the monochrome scale. Only, lots of Monos are kidnapping their Probes and, well, our MC is afraid of doing the same to his Probe. And the whole thing is basically them dealing with that and also falling in love with each other. And yeah, they are both boys. And this is BL. And Korea really did a good job on this one. And they even kiss. Not like the censored stuff China makes. I mean, I love wuxia, but damn, I need some real fluff! Not glorified bromance. And Color Rush delivered. There were lots and lots of fluffy moments and I loved them. 

If you're into BL and haven't seen this one yet, I would suggest you get to it. It's really great, but make sure you have enough time, the whole thing is about two hours long. Which is why I only watched it today instead of yesterday. I wanted to, but I needed to go to bed as I was getting up early for work. And now I need to find some more stuff to watch.

If you saw the movie, tell me what you think, if you haven't, will you consider it? Do you like BL? Would you want China to make proper BL? Instead of the censored stuff like the Untamed (Though I loved it anyway)?
