I mean no offense to the fans, but how is this the best BL series ever made? Just how? Is it because of the relatively high-quality cinematography, the fancy suits, cars, and houses, and the hot guys’ doing "sexy" [non-consensual] stuff? I am sorry, but all of this, even if it was a hundred times fancier, will never outweigh a well-written storyline like the ones of classics such as SOTUS, He's Coming to Me, Theory of Love etc., which convey the beautiful essence of BL. Shame on the production team for advertising this as a BL series, when it has virtually nothing to do with the genre. BL does not equal gay porn and hopefully never will.

I dropped this series after episode five because it was becoming disgustingly intolerable. The moment I saw Kinn rape Porsche while the latter was drugged I knew that this series is not for me – and judging by other reviews, there are worse things coming in the next episodes, including incest and more rape.

Episode one was interesting. After that, though, I could not understand if the production team had a mafia story, a dumb comedy, or just kinky porn in mind. I saw a lot of people praise Bible's acting. There were not many scenes with him in the initial episodes, so I cannot tell about him, but Mile and Apo were mediocre. In the lead actors’ defence, though, their characters are horrible people who behave illogically – no wonder they had trouble relating to them and portraying them. I liked Jeff Satur's acting and character. I was planning to continue the series because I was curious about him. However, the rape scene, which the script excused and romanticized, turned me off completely. There simply is not, and will never be, a scenario in which rape is sexy.

Although I liked Freefall, this song and the other OSTs are also just not it. Jeff Satur has a lovely voice, but his songs do not suit the vibe of a mafia series. They would have fitted a romance drama way better.

Visually pleasing actors and BL tropes thrown here and there cannot save a series that is literally the epitome of the Plot What Plot? Porn Without Plot tag on AO3. If this sets the standard for future BL series, I will stop being a fan of BL.

Edit: I forgot to discuss Tankhun. Knowing what happened to him in the past, I did not find his antics funny. I was actually disturbed that a character with serious childhood trauma was used for comedic relief. He is the survivor of a kidnapping. Making fun of such things should not be normalized. Shame on the production team for doing so.

I would also like to address the claims of some reviewers that since this series has a mafia concept, the fetishizing of rape and everything else that I find disturbing about this story is permissible.
First, this is not a mafia series. This is a soap opera thinly disguised as a mafia series. The mafia concept is highly underdeveloped and unrealistic.
Second, I encourage the apologists of this series to watch actual mafia movies. I recommend Casino, The Godfather, Goodfellas, The Irishman – they are considered four of the greatest movies in this genre. They are way darker than this series, which looks like a ridiculous fanfic compared to them. There is so much violence in them. There are toxic relationships, between couples, friends, and family. There is sex. They depict the world of the mafia in graphic details. However, not one of them is fetishizing non-consensual sexual activities, incest, or anything else of this kind. Bad actions and bad people are not excused. Their toxic relationships are not romanticized. If you watch even one of them, you will not think of calling this series a mafia one anymore. You will see it for what it is – a badly written kink fanfic.
Third, this series was marketed as BL. However, it deals with serious topics in a way that is not suitable for a substantial part of the usual BL target audience, which includes minors. Exposing minors to ideas like the ones promoted in this series – rape can be sexy, toxic relationships can be romantic etc. – is wrong. I thought that filmmakers were past the 50 Shades of Gray kind of "romance", but apparently not.
