How the treacherous trailer almost put me off watching my favorite BL drama of the year

First of all, I was surprised that the drama has nothing to do with the supernatural, as the title and trailer might suggest. At first I thought it was a misunderstanding. Now I think it was on purpose.

Maybe we were meant to feel like everyone else who had been deceived into believing in the Suppalo curse. I thought it would be a production with Ayan's dorky behavior and weak effects with eclipse storyline (and maybe some werewolf transformations, who knows).

It turns out that the story of Suppalo is the background on which the main characters resonate beautifully. For Akk, these are the dilemmas of a young man on the verge of important life stage and love that stands in the way. For Ayan, it's dealing with the pain due to loss and his desire for revenge.

There are expressive individuals who do not live in the shadows, and their behavior affects the reputation of the entire university. This allows us to see the smallest changes and nuances that occur in their thinking and behavior.

I enjoy hate-to-love tropes and this story stands out on the podium. It seems well thought out from a psychological point of view. We see how the characters change and nothing happens too quickly, it's natural.

Sometimes it is their looks that give us the most information: from unspoken, inflamed feelings to pain that they have to work through.

Akk and Ayan seem to be made for each other. That is the subtle factor that makes you feel the atmosphere of growing tension through their eye contact or their being next to each other. Their chemistry is out of this world. I have to admit that I watched some scenes more than a dozen times! Something amazing. Chapeu bas for the director!

The OST "Over the Moon" by Khaotung adds flavor and it's one of my all-time favorite soundtracks. Along with the official music video, it strongly affects my emotions and I'm drifting away in soft thoughts.
