I’m slowly working through a long list of recommended BLs and this one was near the top. There were parts that I loved (Boss is undeniably hot and a good actor) and parts I didn’t like (sometimes Rain and Sky’s but especially Rain’s behavior seemed silly and a bit of a stereotype.)

I honestly couldn’t get behind Rain & Payu’s relationship because I couldn’t see what Payu found so irresistible. 🤷🏻‍♀️ It just never made sense to me.

Then there’s the sound issues. The sound of cloth rubbing over a mic when characters moved or touched, odd mouth noises that really shouldn’t have been picked up. It’s easy to forgive if the rest of the show rises up. But that wasn’t the case here. Every shift of fabric or skin that the mic picked up took me out of the story.

I’d love to see Boss paired with someone else. It’s interesting to see how many BLs have a really good actor paired with a not great one. It’s just baffling. Or maybe Noeul’s style of acting just isn’t for me. Interestingly when I’ve seen clips of Noeul not acting- it felt more natural and was more appealing than the character Rain 😬

I don’t regret watching this. There were some epic scenes I loved, but I don’t think it holds any rewatch value and that’s ok ☺️
