fun, tears & love

I really liked this BL but the couple that stole my heart was Li Ming and Heart. But let's go step by step! Unlike the couple formed by the two boys, I find that the relationship between Jim and Wen has not gone gradually, it has certainly had ups and downs but in the last episode a love seems to have been born between the two that didn’t exist until the previous episode. Surely Jim held back his feelings due to the situation with Wen, Alan and Gaipa but maybe I wouldn't have shown this gap so obviously.
I find Li Ming the best character in the drama, a little boy who grew up too quickly who, despite having received no love, has so much to give and gives it to Heart who also has never received any love since he became deaf. This couple was the one that let me breath again while everything went wrong between Jim and Wen, the only one that gave me joy from the start to the end. The theme of deafness, although I don't know anything about it, is addressed really well and I think it opens the world to those people who are left out of society because "they lack in something". Heart was immediately loved by everyone, treated like the others and i was so happy when Wen learned sign language (or at least, some gestures).
Gaipa and Alan also deserve a special mention. Despite the few scenes during the series, the two have stolen my heart and I hope that one day a spin off will be made to better understand their characters and their relationship. I felt every emotion of Gaipa from being whipped for jim to being rejected and the pain of losing his mother. A true, pure character with a big heart who despite the broken heart helps Jim. I experienced Alan's suffering from start to finish but I would have liked to see him smile more with Gaipa, only in the final episode I was able to see him happy. Although I don't understand the last scene when Wen approaches him and Gaipa angrily. Bro? It's none of your business anymore.
At the end, I would like to conclude with Leng who gave me lightness and fun. A little boy who, despite the difficulty of becoming a father at such a young age, try to gave a good life for his son.
