Pros and cons
Slight trigger warnings: kind of sexual assault (forced kissing, not taking no for an answer)
So the trigger warning is a complex one because the forced kisses fit the story and the desperation of the character but they still made me feel uncomfy. Maybe it's just because I am sensitive to those things and I don't romanticize them at all.
With that out of the way, I like this show and I was disappointed that China's censorship laws put a stop to the show. It feel pretty complete though it was supposed to have another 3 episodes or something around that number. I enjoyed the character and relationship development from this show. I also appreciate how controversial it is (China's government is homophobic and even some of their apps have removed multiple LGBT+ tags and pages. I don't mean that all Chinese people are homophobic!) Now that that disclaimer is over, the Plot of the story isn't messy, it is easy to follow. I like both of the main leads a lot, but unfortunately they can't work together in the future due to the previously mentioned issues. BL dramas can be a bit too perfect (like relationship wise, life style wise) and this one is the total opposite and is very relatable.
The music in the show is top notch and does a a great job, a bit like it was made as a movie sound track. The emotions are very well connected.
It is 100% worth the watch and I hope you get it a chance.
