Too much cut behind!

Usually I really love Korean BLs. They are short, crisp and are able to present the story in an intelligent manner. However Behind Cut really fails to live upto expectations. What really bugs me is the fact that after watching stories like Cherry Blossoms After Winter and Semantic Error, the standards are set really high and therefore this one feels like such a let down.
Make no mistake, the story premise is fabulous. But I am not completely impressed with its execution. Disappointed would be a better word. The actors seem like they are just doing a bit of lip service in the name of a BL. What could have been a taut, appealing narrative turns into a flat, uninteresting trope.
So basically it's a love triangle. There are 2 friends living together. One is a designer, the other a model. The model is in love with the designer, and wants nothing more than to be the one who presents his clothes. But wonder of wonders, the designer falls in love with the delivery guy, who..more angst, was probably the model's ex. At least that what it looks like. I was very confused by this point. And wanted nothing more than this little travesty to get over!

Acting wise... No chops at all. Except both the designer and delivery guy are damn good looking. The model is not only not great looking, he definitely does not look he could be maybe just a couple of years older than the other two.

Points that were horrendously annoying.. What happened in the one year to the designer and model? Why did they separate? What was happening? I speak Korean fluently, but I still had to go back and watch with subtitles because I was completely lost as to what exactly what was happening.

Definitely not recommended for a re-watch... You can watch once if you like Korean BLs and cute guys. Other than that, this show was a complete disaster! So good luck!!
