It’s poignant in informing and representing the value of sexual expression and acceptance, wholeheartedly portraying that BDSM relationships are more often than not as grounded and human as the people involved. Read full review

Love and Leashes seems far more intent on explaining and removing “fear of the unknown” and the label “pervert” from BDSM than it is in actually titillating, amusing or entertaining as it does. Read full review

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It is a romantic genre movie with bdsm sauce, originating in Korea, made in 2022. A young man appointed as the manager of a company attracts the attention of a woman in the company. The man, on the other hand, is looking for an owner with whom he can live the bdsm-style life. The names of these two are very similar to each other. The cargo that comes to the man is given to the woman. When the man hears this, the woman tries to catch up without opening the cargo box, but she is late. A collar comes out of the cargo. In the future, the man opens his feelings to the woman and they start this business in the softest way as if they are playing a game. I liked it because it includes foot and shoe fetish elements from time to time. Of course, I can not pass without saying that it is +18.… Expand

I drool for the lead actress, so while I'm not fond of this genre, this film was a mandatory stop for me. I admit that because of the subject the story deals with, I was intrigued for how it was going to be handled, but apparently from what I read before watching it, the webtoon this film isI drool for the lead actress, so while I'm not fond of this genre, this film was a mandatory stop for me. I admit that because of the subject the story deals with, I was intrigued for how it was going to be handled, but apparently from what I read before watching it, the webtoon this film is based on is not graphic, and also I think that it has something to do with Netflix market in South Korea, and the public image of both lead actors.
So this is just basically a very light attempt at 50 Shades of Grey, but way more focused on silly comedy and romance. Forget about anything sexually charged or explicit. The way it approaches the BDSM theme is merely PG-13.
It does not stigmatize its practitioners, but neither does it venture into anything more thorough or detailed. This is mostly due to the lack of development of both lead characters, which also drags a lack of direction for them and their motivations. If you've seen light South Korean comedies before, you'll realize pretty soon what Love and Leashes has to offer overall.… Expand
