Boy Meets Boy


Summary

Gay Film. Run time: 14:11 minutes.
Boy Meets Boy is based on the meeting and relationship of two boys, Min-soo (Kim Hye-sung) and Seok-i (Lee Hyun-jin). Instead of dialogue, the film portrays the relationship between the two boys using body language and facial expressions.

My Comments

I think the silence of the film gives a cute touch since you pay more attention to the nervousness and happiness you see in their body language rather than depending on the dialogue. Even though it was silent, the director still did a good job of letting you know what was going on.
The only thing I didn't like about this film was the song. You'll know what I mean when you watch it.

Summary

This is a gay film rated 18+. Duration: 21 minutes
A young deaf boy is in love with a male high school friend. One day at a sauna, he impulsively has sex with another male working at the sauna.

My Comments

I think film is very well done and is one of my favourite gay films. In just 21 minutes, it shows how prejudice can make the male leads life difficult in more ways than one. If you like this film you should check out the gay film Just Friends which was filmed by the same director.

Just Friends

Min-soo is on leave from the military and visits his boyfriend Seok-yi. 
While having fun out on the town, they run into Min-soo mother. When the Min-soo's mother asks how they know each other (unaware of their homosexuality), Min-soo replies "... just friends." 
Making things more complicated, Min-soo's mother ends up sleeping between them that night! 

My Comments

This movie wins the awards for best kissing scene in Korean film history!
Aghh this movie is cute! The director of the film said he wanted to make a "real gay film of 99.9% purity" and he did a wonderful job. It's an excellent portrayal of how difficult it would be to be closeted gay especially in a country like South Korea where homosexuality is more frowned upon. The couple have perfect chemistry and the ending ...... <3

No Regret



Summary

Gay Film , This film is rated 18+

One night, a rich young businessman named Jae-Min (Kim Nam-Gil) tries to seduce him during one of his driving jobs. They meet again the next day: it is during a round of redundancy cuts at the factory where Soo-min refuses an attempt by Jaemin (who is in fact the boss' son) to save his job. Soo-min then begins working as a male prostitute in a boy-brothel and Jaemin's obsession with him grows, leaving Jaemin helpless in the face of his overwhelming desire.

My Comments

This has to be one of my favourite gay films of all time and amazingly it was filmed with funds of just $100,000 USD! The guys aren't amaazzing looking unfortunately but I think definietly makes up for it with its strong themes of passion, misunderstandings and desire. Warning: This film has strong sex scenes (at least for a Korean film).If you're wondering, The reason I enjoy some gay films is because of the themes of forbidden love and people over coming obstacles to be together.
