This season was the definition of pain. It was really heavy, but I respect the realness and how mature it is. This is a story about love not about how to be a perfect human being. You don't choose who you fall in love with. when you love someone you have to accept them the way they are, and handle their trauma, low self-esteem or whatever that makes them do stupid things. Real love is WORK , trying to fix the issues, and helping your partner to be a better person. I don't think the ex story line was necessary, but after all I enjoyed this season a lot. The acting was perfect. Their chemistry is crazy! and I think season 3 is a must at this point. it will make us appreciate this season more. Since we aren't really sure about JW if he will leave again or if the relationship is strong enough to last. Seeing their relationship getting stronger in a third season will make us believe in them more, and we'll know that everything they went through in this season was worth it . There are many good BLs out there but this one will always has a special place in my heart.
