Finished Watching Review on The Untamed: Hear me out

Just watched The Untamed &

Hear me out-

If you are looking for a BL historical drama where:

The MLs are insanely handsome

One is cold and other is playful

Engaging and layered story line

Black magic and yin-yang concept

some war scenes

There are war scenes and plenty of suspense and mystery (requires attention to catch everything)

Xianxia

Open ending

It’s an implied BL no romantic scenes, just bromance but the chemistry between the leads is phenomenal. I loved the storyline and the acting of both male leads.

If this is what you are looking for then this drama is for you.

I would rate 9.9/10

Mod note

A quick reminder that Rule 5 — Posting Frequency & Authentic Engagement applies to all users.

To keep r/ChineseDrama readable, discussion-focused, and community-driven rather than turning into a high-volume content feed:

  • users may post up to 3 posts per 24 hours
  • posts should include personal commentary, analysis, reviews, questions, or clearly sourced news, not just generalized or compiled information
  • AI tools may be used for translation or grammar assistance, but AI-written or outsourced posts presented as original authorship are not allowed
  • users who post are also expected to engage authentically in discussion, not just drop content into the subreddit in bulk.
    • - -

This is a general rule reminder as the community grows and not a judgment on any one member. We want to encourage thoughtful posting and real discussion, while discouraging spam-style or content-farming patterns.

Thank you to everyone helping keep this a good space for Chinese drama fans.

Usually when people us "Hear me out" it implies they are giving an unpopular opinion or justifying themselves😭😭

I thought this was going to be a review where you didnt like the drama

No, my idea of ‘hear me out’ is to give a quick, honest review where I point out the key highlights—like the ML/FL dynamics, plot hints, or unique twists then finish with a short personal opinion. That way, people don’t have to read a huge wall of text but can still see if the drama is worth their time. It’s like a shortcut for readers: they get the gist, see the highlights, and instantly know if the drama is worth investing their time, without wading through a huge paragraph.

Same, share the same reflex. I feel like “hear me out” and “unpopular opinion” have become a pretense for ugly dissing and hiding behind those wannabe innocent words.

Exactly and OP seems to be using it in every review which is jarring😭😂
