Lightweight version of Gameboys/Hello Stranger

Another entry into the Video Chat Bromance genre, "See You After Quarantine" is a quick, breezy drama coming in at under 10 minutes per episode. According to the end credits, the entire show was shot on a Galaxy S21 smartphone and it doesn't look too bad. To be fair, I think Gameboys and Hello Stranger were also shot on cell phones, so technology is no longer a barrier for pro-am level productions. The love interest between two guys with a greater age gap is refreshing departure from the same age cliche. There's not a lot of dramatic conflict beyond the "does he or does he not" element, but it's certainly a conflict anyone can identify with, so it works. We're also spared the usual padding with secondary characters and sub-plots, as "See You After Quarantine" stays in its own lane for the most part. More recent BL/Y dramas have backed away from displays of affection between the men, but here we get an explosion of kisses in the final installment. The leads do a good job of raising their performances above the rather two dimensional script. For such a short drama, it's certainly worth a look. You'll want to skip past the repeating open/close bookends which will save you about 30 minutes over 10 episodes.
