Just. No.

I've been seeing this series everywhere and everyone was saying how toxic it was, so I decided to see for myself. I liked very few things about this episode: the poor woman that keeps being called 'auntie', the two roommates where one speaks korean all the time (they were so funny), and the initial tension between the main characters. However, they went the non-con/SA route, and that put me off entirely. How does kissing him while he's drunk prove that gay men are not rapists? You're literally giving him more reasons to hate you??? Idk. This was a mess.

Two wrongs don’t make a right

I didn’t read the description, but I know type was molested at one point that’s why he hates gay people. They got some serious chemistry I’ll give them that. This drama is hated a lot so I’m gonna watch and see why. Bro sexually assaulted him in his sleep, too wrongs don’t make a right. Okay bye!

after who knows how long, trying to watch…

after who knows how long, trying to watch this again - 1st time around didn't last more then a few sec's (just didn't like either lead and Type's over-the-top in-ur-face antagonistic behavior, was a huge turn off). but here i am - out of boredom and curiosity (as keep getting recommended it) and it kinda starts off with a major plot hole - Techno know's Type's - has grown up with the dude, long enough to know, he "hate's gays" with a vengeance! and yet he the one rushing to inform him that his roommate gay - why?? let alone him then basically asking rhetorical question - if Type really planning to move out - why can't he get along with Tharn, why he acting childish etc... he KNOWS the dude, shouldn't he have all the answers - so just to further the plot, meeh  ̄へ ̄ ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************Type's idiotic scheming not making things any better - destruction of property let alone the message on the boxes, is a hate crime, which is against the law! he can be held accountable, let alone get kicked out of that collage, not only that dorm. and yet Tharn just brushes it off - cause? if he goes the logical route, no drama?¯\(°_o)/¯ *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************and why do they have to get so freakin close to each other, to say their dialogue's - it's just invading privacy for no reason - u Don't need to touch noses to convey ur anger or annoyance - pretty sure neither got hearing problems... and Type always finding a reason to hit, push Tharn is getting borderline abusive. in real life gay or not, u keep trying to push people around like that, they gonna push back - hard. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************ugh not a fun 1st ep. so thankful for nosy well-meaning Khlui and quirky wanna-be-Korean Seo, they lighten the mood. yeah Techno has his moment's, but either get mad at him cause he started this mess, or feel bad for him cause, Type keeps treating him like his servant and whipping boy - i really donno why or how he still friends with a spoilt brat like Type ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** side note - i found the scene with the guys watching porno hilarious cause i'm pretty sure that by the end of this drama every one of them gonna be gay. so never get the BL's where u got character's acting all hetro man "i love big boobs" group watching porno and then commenting lasciviously about females - why this needed(⊙_⊙)?*******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************about the convo between Tharn and Techno (as read the description i know that even though here, it was more a guess. this is actually the case) either way, between that and everything else going on. Tharn choosing a very sketchy way to get even is disturbing. especially if Type has been molested. cause going through whatever and then thinking he got used/abused under the influence, again might break him mentally. so someone who has been trying to walk the high enlightened road, kinda took a nose-dive from the moral high ground, cause funny that isn't.

Didn't like some stuff

This is the first BL that I'm watching and I just finished the first episode. I'm interested in the story but I've given 3 stars because I do not like the fact that they're casually bringing and mentioning and joking a bit about rape and molestation. There are a couple of lines that seem to imply "gay=rapist" and a scene where one character sexually assaults a drunk and unconsious character. He kisses him on his body and mouth to "mess with him". I'm going to continue to watch some more episodes to see if it does better and if I like it.

Three Stars

I liked the humor and the characters. Type is a douche, but I think he will grow on me. A bit cringy at times, but I expected that, so no surprise there.

I love everything about it!

The acting was on point and the storyline is going to get better! The actors are really good and I appreciate all the hard work, effort, and time put into this series. I loved the sounds track, the cinematography, the presentation and overall that we were able to watch this with English subtitles!

Intriguing (with some issues)

The story is set up well as are the characters. The only problem I had is that it showed the only gay character violating the consent of another when Tharn kissed Type while Type was not only drunk and unconscious. The message is also a bit mixed because there are times when characters make offhanded comments about Tharn of being a rapist- sometimes it's simply brushed aside and other times its clearly called out for being bigotry. I think the writers of this show need to be very careful with that line because it is very easy to cross. Other than these I liked the episode. Like I said I like how childish Type is (although I don't like his bigotry) and I like Tharn's flirtiness (but don't like his general lack of consent when it comes to Type.)

What a start.

Wow, what a start to a series. Just...wow. I'm not sure where to start here. The eye-candy? Heck, yes. I am used to BLs having amazing looking male actors, but this series takes it to an entirely new level with a group of great looking guys (understatement!)The actor playing Tharn is beyond gorgeous and seriously nails his character. Poor Type is out of his depth. I was left begging for more at the end of the episode...all I can say is hot, hot, hot. I have read plenty of reviews (these are usually how I choose a series to watch) but, honestly, I don't really care for the OST/cinematic values blah blah...I only care about the originality of the script and the talent of the actors, so I can't speak about music etc in this review...I'm fascinated by the premise and thrilled by the ability of the actors. Desperately waiting for Episode 2 here.

Might be a little uncomfortable for some

For me, ep 1 is a solid 9. I really like the production quality and the chemistry is already oozing. I gave it a 9 and not a 10 because I got super peeved at Type lol. He's such a child haha. Anyway yh it might get a little uncomfortable towards the end but have faith.

bom ou toxico? os dois?

o ep apresenta o casal e todo o enredo do type não gostar de pessoas lgbt's em especifio os gays e ter que aprender a viver em sociedade pois esta morando com um ,mas tambem tem toda a problematica do tharn passando a mão e beijando o corpo do type enquanto o mesmo esta inconsciente ,o que podia ser adaptado ou retirado da historia sem afetar o enredo
