I enjoyed this mini drama so much.
The acting was so good and the story was really hilarious .
I laughed for the all time it lasted. It's a pity it was so short. I would have loved it even more if it was a little bit longer.u

You shouldn't miss this.

If I have to describe this drama in one sentence then it would be 'I laughed, I laughed a lot, I laughed a loot and I'm still laughing'

It was one the most hilarious dramas I have ever seen, there wasn't even one moment that I felt it's boring. It was brilliant, I have was laughing from the first ep to the last, it was perfect, I wish it would have been more longer. The acting was great, execution, timing was perfect, loved the way of using music and sound effect it is one the main feature of this web drama, it's only 1 hour and 36 minutes so definitely it's worth watching. I f you like comedy then you'll love it. Ahh when they started to sing together it was hilarious I never laughed this much...

Overall it was great, I enjoyed a lot and trust me there's nothing here that you won't like it, it's very light drama that will ease your mind so don't think too much just enjoy this ride..:))

This short web drama was possibly the funniest thing I've ever seen. It's an hilarious spoof not just of BL but also of the romance tropes and cliches from Korean dramas. This show will have you laughing from the first scene to the heart-shaped fireworks. And, just when you stop, they start singing and you start laughing again. All of the humour comes from its parody of other dramas so there's no insensitive stereotypes or gay shock jokes either.

I really hope there's a season 2 but even if there isn't this was still pretty much the most perfect short drama I've ever seen.

10/10

This show is so freaking hilarious!!! I was laughing literally the entire time I was watching it. They get into the most ridiculous and wtf situations, and everyone hilariously misunderstands. The actors pull it all off fairly well, they have VERY good chemistry :) It is a fairly short series, but totally worth watching if you want to laugh at two hot guys for about an hour. XD

YALL. If you're looking for pure comedy you've come to the right place. This is the perfect short show where there are no worries or troubles, just hilarious situations that allow you to gleefully follow along. Great bromance acting, it'd made me instantly fall in love with these actors. I'd rewatch this in a heart beat to cheer myself up or if i was just having a boring night

A ROFL watch

I didn't expect to laugh as much as I did. The situations they get into are just too funny, plus Choi Woo Shik and Jang Ki Young are PERFECT in their respective roles -- Woo Shik as a type A neat freak and Ki Young as a stereotypical guy (but manly, wow he's smouldering in this drama).

I hope they act together again in another drama. (Hopefully another comedy, because their chemistry and timing together was gold!)

It was pretty obvious this drama was low budget, but that lent even more to the silly vibe. I loved it!

So many laughs, OMG this was hilarious. There was no BL content in it, just others perceptions of the two main characters and their adorable bromance that developed after they move in together. The two are similar when it comes to goals but have contrasting personalities that it causes them more trouble then need be. The one girl between them is only a friend who thinks they are dating and suck at being discreet. Every short episode was full with shock, surprises and sarcasm too. Just what I need in life. My stomach hurt from laughing so much but I will rewatch this again and again for the amazing crazy and funny story. Please make more like this Korea! Just slowly slide from tolerance to acceptance and finally celebration of LGBT+ relationships in everyday society.

SO MUCH FUN

A definite BROMANCE storyline. A small BL side story, but this is really about 2 straight guys becoming friends. And it is so freaking adorable. The comedy is absolutely great. I laughed in every episode. The acting is way over the top, to play up the ridiculous comedy elements, but all the actors perform so well that it feels perfectly done. Playing off and playing up all the BL tropes, this makes you laugh at other BL series for taking themselves so seriously. Direction is equally strong, with tongue in cheek throughout. So well done. And it's very short, so you can rewatch the whole thing in one sitting (this was my 2nd viewing). Jang Ki Yong is so cute. And Choi Woo Shik is adorable and a terrific comic actor. I love this one.

Very entertaining

OMG, this one is comedy gold.

The story is a simple premise yet the execution is so well done. I haven’t laughed so much while watching a show in a long time. Note- I tend to avoid shows peppered with goofiness as they can get cringy however this one is so far from it.

The whole cast truly made the series. The added effects also make the whole thing so enjoyable.

Scenes that can be considered overdone in other shows are done just right in this one.

The two leads are so good, I need a sequel!

I LITTERALLY LAUGHED OUT LOUD !!!

Wow, i watched this drama at the speed of light ! I wasn't convinced at first sight because the first episodes were not so great (the plot mainly) BUT i encourage you to continue because this drama becomes so good after ! It was really addictive thanks to endearing and funny characters (cute and handsome!)
I'm happy to see again Jang Ki Young. I saw him in The Liar and his lover in which he has a supporting role. He is very good at acting, i hope to see him more in the future !
Enjoy it ^^

I Have Never Laughed SO MUCH!

This was the funniest thing I have watched in a long time! Simply Hilarious - But not stupidly corny, just funny!

There was no BL content in it, just other's perceptions of the situations they saw, helped along my one great narrative onscreen and a bromance.

The ending was great too!

The acting was perfect, but that was expected with these two actors.

Short but with it being a 1- 15 episodes marathon - that was ok! I will definitely keep this one around to rewatch.
