Sweet take on neuro-diversity
I really liked this drama for its handling of romantic love and neuro-diversity. It's pretty clear that Sang Woo is on the autism spectrum. Every detail to signal this has been provided - the fact he needs routine, order and predictability, his tactile defensiveness (hates being touched unexpectedly), the smart guy who treats people like objects - it's all there but it's done in such a way that it is not necessary to label him on the basis of it. Instead, the direction seems to have an enjoyable and affectionate take on many of his "robotic" mannerisms, providing a lighter and less stereo-typed take on difference.
Sang Woo has to grow the most - he has to become flexible and allow himself to love and in this way, he is able to find his place in the world and someone to be with in it.
There's a real sweetness to this drama, and sincerity which makes it feel fresh despite it covering all the usual themes. This is a BL drama and just like with the theme of neuro-diversity, the attraction of these 2 leads needs no explanation or defending to anyone. They are just who they are, doing what they do, and everyone goes along with it.
Conclusion: easy to watch and a nice bite sized binge for a rainy afternoon.
