Mr. Heart a Korean BL Drama Series

Published: Oct. 4, 2020, 2:31 a.m.

In this episode of Check It/Round Table Onna discusses the Korean BL drama series Mr. Heart in total.  Onna has done an episode by episode review of this series that you can see in previous recent podcasts.  Onna considers how Korean BL dramas are subpar compared to other countries' BL dramas because the projects' compatriots seem to not put their heart in the production--pun intended.  Onna considers that this story follows a collegiate runner and his pacemaker and how when the runner, Jin Won, realizes that he can't buy his pacemaker and how his pacemaker, Sang Ha, has invested in Jin Won over the years in a way no one Jin Won's life had before over a series of years.  Onna concludes with the one consideration she took away from this series in the ending scene with Jin Won meeting Sang Ha when he hits Sang Ha and Sang Ha sits up and finally retorts and faces some issues he had been keeping inside and Jin Won states he is not upset about the race results and is upset because Sang Ha changed his door code and asks him to be his rival rather than his pacemaker because you cannot be in a relationship well if you are not equals.  The series concludes with a hilarious bit about the two lead characters' first date and how neither character knows what to do on a first date.  It's all here.  It's all real.
