Definitely up there
Enjoyed this drama a lot. It's probably 2nd or 3rd on my list of Top KBL's (fighting with Blueming on placement).
I loved thay we had real characters facing real issues. It wasn't just some fluffly romance for the sake of serving BL, or a watered down version of BL; no, the writer and director clearly had a mission to portray an honest story with believable characters, actual relatable human emotions/reactions and a well fleshed out story line that holds your attention and makes you want to keep watching.
The romance between Jaewon and Jihyun was really adorable. I loved the pacing of their relationship. At first you can just tell they were intrigued by one another due to the inital attraction they had to each other. But then afterwards, it became more of a, 'This person is my safe haven' type of feeling between them. You could see how they started to rely and trust one another, and actually form a deeper connection than just physical attraction. Also the real, deeep, kisses and smoky looks (I'm looking at you JW 🥵) that were shared between the two was the icing on top as well. Loooved all the cuddling in bed scenes as well, reminded me of Skam!
Only thing I would have changed in this drama is that not everything needs to have a Happy Ending. I remember JW said he wished he didn’t have to put up a front in front of other people anymore. He wished he could just be himself, so I wouldve preferred if he cut off his toxic "friend" from his life at the end. Granted, i know a person can't just do a 360° change in personality overnight but it would have been better to see him set boundaries with said friend rather than making amends with him and not actually holding him accountable to the shitty actions he pulled. Also, I feel there was more to explore with JW's family issues. Dk if they're planning a S2 to look into that or not (👀) but would've been nice if we knew more about his relationship with his parents/got some resolution from it.
Overall, I highly enjoyed this. I’ve always said when Korea starts taking BL seriously and starts investing into it like they do with regular Kdramas, they will rule the world and I can see it is heading in that direction so I'm excited for the future.
