Dreamy hunk and timid titmouse
The ML was devoted, tender and sensual and maybe just a little scary. The FL was milquetoast. Her timidity and lack of confidence was distressing. She was a beautiful gentle woman who constantly apologized and acted like the ML was doing her a favor to even notice her. I would have liked the plot and character development to be more complex. I hope she shows more assertiveness and spirit in the next several episodes. The degree of subservience was demeaning and somewhat offensive. The skinship was definitely appealing and worth rewatching. Again, the FL could definitely be more of a participant instead of a doormat. The ML's acting was excellent. He portrayed an enamoured suitor with unlying strenghten and ruthless. Would love to see both leads in a storyline that supports more development of their characters and portrayal of their acting abilities.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Promising and dynamic
(This was after episode 2). So far this has been a candid portrayal of modern youth both heterosexual and gay. The uncertainties, the joys, the friendships, the sadness of irrevocable mistakes...all these occurred in just the first two episodes. I'm really looking forward to the rest of this series. Without being overly graphic we're given a glimpse of how it feels to be gay in a society that is very traditional. Even those that were critical of this series would say "well done".(Continuation of review after completion.)
I binge watched this series. It is indeed a masterpiece!
This was a unique series...a bl with "slice of life" moments. I loved the friend group that remained supportive throughout the series. There were so many variations of an eventually failed relationship. I think the flashbacks in Bangkok of Go Young's romantic relationship was enlightening. The lantern scene seems to indicate his deep love for his boyfriend which would imply he released him from their relationship when he moved to China to pursue career opportunities. However, from a different perspective whether a relationship is heterosexual or gay a long-term relationship is going encounter struggles and varying degrees of excitement. Any healthy relationship requires nurturing, compromise and communicating. It seemed sad that in a passive way none of the gay romantic relationships portrayed a healthy loving long term one. It seems that all of the relationships were transitory and brief except the four friends. This movie definitely made you reflect and, also, included the element of risk in unprotected sex. After recovering from the sadness of the ending, I think rewatching this would bring discoveries of new aspects in the story. This brought the "bl" of this movie to a different level. I guess what I'm trying to say it was superbly produced and ended up being a drama more than a typical "bl" series.
