We Support Healthy Relationships in BL

I loved this from the beginning. The relationships between the main two gay couples were some of the healthiest I've seen in BL. This is something I want to see more of. I could have absolutely done without the Doctor and Khim plot, though. We did not need it honestly. Would have loved to see something more for Khem's character, though. Loved Phu and Kao. Their scenes got better with each episode. really fell in love with the characters and the actors playing them do such an amazing job. I also loved Solo and Gui and the way their relationship worked. They really take advantage of the nonverbal attraction that is there in those first couple episodes and that was such a nice way to go while having Kao being the verbal flirter when it came to Phu. The couples were so different and it brought a nice balance to the sow. Like I said before it didn't rely heavily on toxic elements like some Bl I have seen or try to romanticize problematic relationship behavior. The emotional stakes are raised through external things. The family aspects particularly and working through past traumas together. The ending did leave a little to be desired in that I wish the conflicts were solved differently but not to an extent that it dampened my love for the series right now.

Trigger Warning: One issue I did have is there is drugging and attempted sexual assault scene that sort of gets brushed over. I wanted repercussions for that to happen.

Great Acting!

There are some plot holes in the series and the production quality isn't the highest but this is also one of the more realistic BL series I've seen in many ways. Plus has some amazing acting. The chemistry between the leads is so strong. It really builds in the series. Plus the rest of the cast puts out some amazing acting as well. The plot holes could have been fleshed out if the series had more time. If it was longer or split up into two seasons maybe. I think they just tried to fit a lot into 12 episodes. Still, I was usually able to stay up with what was going on for the most part. I was a real fan of this.

Can't Wait to Watch Again

A beautiful way to cap off everyone's story. I loved that we got so many different gay couples in this series. I love that the side characters had tome for things to develop for them. Too often I wish more was going on for the characters around the main character. To see fuller lives and here not only does that happen but it feels significant. It's lovely to see the parallel between the couples as they take on different challenges.

Also, we finally get more of the on-screen touch. Plus a kiss between the two main characters here and while I loved the romantic and cheesy moments between the two it was nice to see something more physical as well. I needed it.

I loved this series so much. I just know I will be back to rewatch it many times.
