A well-produced office set BL.

I personally liked how Jong Chan taught Seung Hyun about setting boundaries for himself on things that he should and shouldn’t do for people in the workplace. An added bonus on how it became the bridge for him to invite him to have a meal together, probably because Jong Chan took pity and noticed how hard Seung Hyun has worked so far. I viewed it as a good transition.

I haven’t read the web novel so I have no basis and clue on how they’re going to develop and get closer from here, so I’ll just have to wait and see.

Production-wise, I loved the ambiance the show gave, it was a pleasant watch.

Regarding their chemistry/dynamic, I could feel the immense gap in their position, which I consider significant since it’s a good opportunity for developing their relationship past this. So far, Jong Chan understands that in order for things to work with him and Seung Hyun, he has to take things out of work and into their personal lives, which makes it less about their power dynamics and simply between two guys who have feelings for each other.

The kiss scene wasn't anything spectacular but it only makes sense why.

As of 3 episodes, the show’s an 8.5/10 for me.
