Decent. Chemistry Could Be Better
Easily the best Korean BL I’ve watched. Though this is only the seventh one I've seen.
The story set up is interesting
The story telling is *chef’s kiss*
None of the exposition is explained to us. It’s all showing without telling.
Somehow I’m always drawn to these childhood romance reunite as scorned adults. Just like Sekaichi Hatsukoi.
The one thing I wish was different is the whole comedic “straight man/funny man” dynamic between the leads. Why do so many romances have the super serious character with no humor and the other character is always the carefree and joking around.
I feel like a strong story could have both characters alternate instead of going heavy handed with that single dynamic to create tension.
SLIGHT SPOILER:
The only real disappointment was the kiss was very dead-fish. I feel like a good editor and director could make the kiss seem better than the actors performed it. But the long shot of them staying perfectly still with their lips pressed together was just…awkward and flat.
And I wish there was more skin-ship throughout the buildup.
