One part of me likes it while the other one is over it.

From the start I'm going to say that the story was aggravating to watch, but at the same time I wouldn't consider this to be a bad drama at all. There's always two sides to every coin and even though some things drove me crazy, there were others that I enjoyed watching.

Let's start with my favorite part: the pacing. Most dramas I've seen usually start slow and suddenly turn fast towards the end giving the impression that they are trying to rush through the story skipping some important development. However, TOL was the complete opposite of that, and I loved this so much! The story started fast paced, but gradually began slowing down to focus on each couple individually and giving time for the audience to grow empathy by watching the struggles they were facing. This is EXACTLY what I look for in a drama! I enjoyed being able to slowly go through the characters' struggles and how they found a way to learn and move forward. Most other dramas give you a problem and pretty much solve it in one or two episodes, but TOL gave time for those problems to sink in a show the severity of the situation.

The editing on this drama, though... I'll just say... it left me with A LOT to wish for. It's just too amateur.

The soundtrack was pretty excellent too, if you ask me. I'm a soundtrack geek and the music is one of the things I look forward to the most when I watch a movie, anime, or any TV series. TOL's did not disappoint me at all (compared to many others tbh). The composer focused on ambient music with a kick of melancholy that fit very well with the mood of the episodes. It wasn't a soundtrack that felt generic at all, but more of an intimate style exclusively made for this show.

The acting in this series wasn't that bad, but it was not the best I've seen either. I felt like some actors were lacking some emotions in their voices, but nothing cringey, fortunately. I'll talk about each couple below:

Khai and Third: This was actually a very uniquely written couple. I have not seen a lot of dramas and this is the first couple with such toxic relationship. Quite a different toxicity than the Tharn and Type couple. This is probably the most aggravating part of the show because if I were Third I would've cut off this friendship so quickly, but well... it's a drama after all, can't complain much. I did like Off a lot more than Gun, though. I felt like he was a little more expressive than Gun. I just finished watching "I'm Tee, Me Too" and I noticed that Gun is lacking a lot of facial emotions to the point that his characters look dead inside. By the way, am I the only one who thinks Off's acting resembles a lot to Captain's (Love Sick)? So many mannerisms reminded me of him.

Two and Un: Honestly, this casting was terrible. Not because they are bad actors or anything, but because they don't look good together as a couple. I was constantly hoping that Two could end up with the girl instead and got really disappointed when it didn't happen. Shame.

Bone and Paan: As a gay man, I am happy to see straight couples being represented in BL. Why? Because it shows that we are accepting of them and call for the same treatment from non-BL series. I think both actors did very well, if not the best from the three "couples."

One thing that did bother me about the story is that they left Khai's major character development for the final episode. With how long the episodes were, it would have been more preferable if he had taken at least two episodes to go through his development. This is just me being picky for a good reason.

All in all, this is a good drama that deviates from the usual lighthearted stories most people would be probably used to. If you like some tragedies, then this is a drama for you.
