Loved the storyline, but the age gap...

This was btw my first BL ever (Blame Instagram), but I'm writing this I think 25+ bls later (and after a rewatch)
(Bai Zong Yi x Fan Ze Rui)
I'm gonna start with the positive stuff.
I really like the storyline; I love how they met and how their bond deepens.
I'm not usually a fan of time skip-amnesia stories, but somehow I really thought it was fitting.
Every question was solved and I understood every action and decision.

But let's address the elephant in the room: The Age Gap...
Sorry, not sorry, but "he's 17, he's bAsiCaLly an adult" is unacceptable. I think this series really romanticized the fact that this is literally illegal...

They really should have put Bai Zong Yi in University or made him at least over 18, because if he had been an adult the story would have been a lot more enjoyable, and it would affect the storyline at all.
This was always in the back of my mind and it kind of destroyed their chemistry for me, especially in the intimacy-scene.
After the 4-year time skip, it was fine tho.
But still, this show definitely romanticizes the kind-adult relationship situation, because 17 or not, he was a kid and Rui was an adult (I think he was like 25-30?)

(Chen Yi x Ai Di)
I really liked them, their chemistry was great, but i also have a few negative points there.
First, Ai Di had sex with Chen Yi when he was dead drunk? I don't know bro...
+ after that he randomly decides to go to prison with Bai Zong Yi? Naaaaah I don't think so.

All in all, this series really has a special place in my heart because it was my first one.
Would I watch it now? Yes. Why? I like action and I like their stories.
Would I recommend it? Yes, if you dont have triggerpoints with the whole age gap thing.
