South Korea really upped their ante lately when it comes to BL dramas. Though short, most of them hit just the right spot with me. And this one was no different. Why?Because it ended up going in a completely different direction than I thought at first. I thought that Jaeyoung would be your typical jerk and Sangwoo the soft and emotional woobie or... whatever. But no. Jaeyoung turned out to be much softer and sweeter and Sangwoo much more cynical and clinical that I expected. It sure made for a very interesting storytelling.
The story itself was very standard, there was nothing exceptional or all that original about it - for original or downright weird and twisty stuff one really has to dig into Japanese BL - but the characters sure elevated the whole thing, they made me smile while watching which is always a big plus for me.
Overall, a sweet story. Loved it.

same formula but they got right
again koreans follow the same formula, short episodes, short season and a pretty good story. Like man????????????? sit down, let's talk about, I didn't read the manwha so I really can't say anything about that, so let's focus on the drama. They take a such good attetion to the details to creat a safe zone, a confort place and they did, the whole drama was awesome, I wait to watch for days because i want to watch carrefully, the series really deserve others seasons with more drama, more episodes, they really gets the point here. The ost is AMAZING, I'm hearing since the first episode. The actors are so good I'm in love, they act is so goood, I hope to see them again in others seasons and in others drama too because they do a good job here. I will for sure rewatch sometimes because I feel good watching, I will miss they a little bit, but i feel happy because i feel they can do others formulas to Koreans Bls in the future.Esta resenha foi útil para você?

Definitely one of my fav Korean BL! It's inevitable at this point to be short but don't let that stop you. It starts out very cliché with the petty "I hate you, I hate you too" theme but even that was made funny. It's a very cute, quirky, fluffy drama with an amazing cast. Everyone's role was portrayed perfectly and I loved they didn't throw any side drama. It was the MC and their friends which is exactly how it should be to avoid anything from the MC being left out. I honestly have no questions involving the ending. Everything played out and ended perfectly!I heard the novel was a bit R-Rated but you won't find that here and that's actually fine with me.
I'd highly recommend if you want something classic with a splash of original BL
Enjoy...

Best BL adaptation kdrama
Man I’m so glad this kdrama was just as great as the manhwa because everything in it was just right! Ok there might be some differences such as Sangwoo wearing less of his hat but it didn’t matter like everything was just perfect. I personally don’t think it needs a season 2, it had everything you need to enjoy a series, even the sexual tension.Park Seo Ham, Song Ji Oh, Kim Noh Jin and Park Jae Chan were just stunning in this series! Also Park Seo Ham is off to military enlistment today so best of luck to him like I hope to himself and everyone on other projects in the future! Honestly again I can’t express my love for this kdrama, it’s outstanding!

I started this series with hate, because my logic didn't agree what I saw on this series. How could you forgive someone who failed you? or even delaying you for your graduation? I did something terrible when my best friend took my book a month before final exam (when I was in college), I can't imagine what I would do If someone failed me on my test like sang-woo did.
But... at a leisurely pace I fell in love with this series. Especially when their feeling toward each other gradually improved in every episodes.

This gives me hope for better quality LGBTQ+ content from Korea.
This is by far the best Korean BL I've seen so far! The cast was great, the acting was great, the script was great, the music was great. Everything was soooo good!They used up every short minute of the show carefully. I only wished there was one more episode, so there was more story to develop the feelings between the leads, so we connected to it more. The only other drawback I see is with the side characters. But their story couldn't be developed with the plot cause of the time restraints and that's understandable.
There's nothing more to say. Just watch it!

Surely super entertaining, though a little bit superficial
This was a fun series to watch. Production value and cast were great. Everything was competent. It’s the type of thing that just feels right when you’re watching cuz there’s nothing that feels out of place. It’s like, perfect. The plot is alright. It’s not something incredible and innovative, but it’s well written. It feels like a perfectly executed recipe.Now, what I think was missing that could make it more heartfelt and special was depth. It kind of feels hollow. Yes, Jaeyeong is charming, expansive, determinated. Yes, Sangwoo is cold and robotic with a bit of fluff inside of him. But there’s nearly nothing we know about them other than these traits and some information that don’t really add much to their eventual emotional connection. They definitely have specific personalities, but those traits don’t make me immerse into their minds to feel what they’re feeling. Therefore, I don’t understand why Sangwoo is so closed off to the world. I don’t understand what made Jaeyeong fall in love with Sangwoo and vice-versa. Well, I think people fall for any reason, which means it still works, but I think something deeper could bring a bigger emotional punch. The chemistry between the actors is great and electric, which is what seems to count the most for some and it might make up for anything that might be missing in the writing department.

Great Series and Must See
I really think that episodes 1 to 4 are 10 rating. Park Sao Ham is just amazing and deserves an award. Especially for the first four episodes. Park Jae Chan is very good in the first 4 episodes too, but I feel he gets better, and his character is more likeable in the last 4 episodes. Episodes 5 and 6 are transition episodes that could have been better. PJC character loses something in episodes 5 and 6 but gains some more depth in 7 and 8. The ending is somewhat anti climatic for me. Could have been better. For sure the first four episodes were the most enjoyable series I've ever seen. It was fresh, quirky and very engaging for me. All of the support characters were very strong especially Song gi oh. congrats for a great series. Make more like this!Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Definitely a fave
This will be taking the number 2 slot of my all time Korean BL fave. Right behind ‘To My Star’. The leads have great chemistry, not to mention how gorgeous they both but seriously… :) Great delivery of lines and their body language was well done too. A lot of times I find BLs to lack believability. Some times the actors are just delivering their lines. This pairing was well done though. They sold it to me. Korea is definitely catching up with other countries, like Thailand.. I think they’ve surpassed them in terms of good storylines and way better acting. Can’t wait to see more from them.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Slow, repeated story
The story is something that we have seen from time to time. Especially university BLs are too common.The story is slow between 2 main leads, one who doe everything using logic has his whole life properly structured whereas the other is carefree and pretty much opposite of the other guy.
The story is a bit slow, I think it would have been better to show it as a movie instead.
The acting is nice but the carefree character could have been portrayed a bit better.
Please ignore my music rating.

Semantic Error: Clear
This is a very good Korean BL series that got a bit archetypical in the end but it is still one of the better ones out there. The main couple was cute and had some great kissing scenes. However, I watched this series through rose-colored glasses as I had a different twist as to who Sangchu really was. Thinking of him the way I did put this series in a broader perspective for me. But no matter how you see these guys, it is still one of the better BLs out there. I am an avid fan of Korean drama. Indeed, they are the new "Hollywood".Esta resenha foi útil para você?
Rewatch Value For Sure
I have watched this show from start to finish 3 times. And I am willing to do it again. I love the acting. I listen to the soundtrack on spotify. I even tried reading the manga (dont do it). The character development is so well done, and their relationship growth doesn't seem too rushed (although a friend suggested it was a tad fast in one spot but didn't take points away for it). The use of colors to show emotional states, how their clothes express their inner thoughts just as much as their expressions or dialogue - this show did so well! I love recommending this drama.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
