Could Have Been Soooooo Much Better

This is a BL series that had potential, but somehow turned horribly wrong. I don't want to blame the actors, because they were only doing what the director obviously wanted. But what was the director thinking??? Except for the main lead actors, they made nearly every other character excessively annoying. The other co-workers at the company were like a poor imitation of slapstick comedy. The stupid continual sound effects lost their effectiveness after the first few times. You could never lose yourself into the story because every few minutes a supporting actor would do something so stupid that it brought you right back to reality reminding you that this was impossibly unreal. Nobody could actually act this stupid. There was no real chemistry between the actors, but that wasn't their fault, it was poor casting. You were never drawn into the drama, but that was the directors fault. If the director had wanted you to take it seriously, the director would have tossed out all the dumb sound effects. If the writers had wanted you to take it seriously they would have left out all the insane nonsense. In the end it just left you scratching your head wondering what were they aiming for? For comedy? For Slapstick? For Absurdness? Obviously not a seriousl love story. Not even a light comical love story. Just plain idiocy that became harder to watch as you progressed through the story. It could have been so much more. It could have been good. But they failed miserably.

Excellent

I had avoided watching this simply due to the title. Reminding me of a 50 year old movie, plus the same name for the theme song from that movie, it just seemed a little silly. But then when I watched it, I realized how wrong I was. Nearly everything about it was excellent. A good story, although it was just a little over the top. The acting was excellent. The cinematography was excellent. The settings and props were excellent. High production values throughout. Still have 7 episodes to go, but if they're as good as the first 10, I have no complaints. Good chemistry between the two male leads, and his brother Yang and the girl that he falls for make a cute couple. Great show.
