“War of Y” Series Review (Ep.1 to 20)
There are four anthologies involved in this series. The four are tangentially connected but in the most loosely defined way.

“Oxygen” Series Review (Ep.1 to 13)
Talking about a particular style of boys-love show with a sweet and adorable plot, I suppose Oxygen the Series has the correct vibe. I’ll go ahead and begin by providing you with a thorough synopsis of the series’ main themes.
“Smiley” Series Review (Ep.1to 8)
This is a love story on different levels and complexities, all done very well. The central focus is on, however, an on-again-off-again-on-again unlikely gay relationship.
The hero behind Weak Hero is love
There’s a fine line between weakness and strength. In a society ruled by power, it isn’t always how well someone throws a punch that matters. It’s how well those punches can be covered up.
