A reflection on misgendering and gender roles in queer relationships.
Despite the hanging threads and loose ends, this miniseries does a decent job of highlighting queer issues that aren't often discussed through a queer lens in dramas.Ah Young discovering and coming into her sexuality is a tale as old as time, but through Yoon's thoughts we see another side of the story. Yoon presents as androgynous and is often misgendered as a result; even partners expect her to act "like a man" in their relationship. Although there is too little time to properly explore the topic through the course of these short episodes, we are shown the effect this has on someone who just wants to be seen and accepted for who she is.
Both characters are easy to sympathize with, but I couldn't help putting myself into Ah Young's shoes and being frustrated on her behalf. She is just trying to do her job and figure out why her manager is playing around with her all the time. The lack of effective communication that comes across as mind games really put a damper on my enjoyment of the story because the ending didn't provide satisfying closure.
If you're a fan of the "cool lead picks on the sweet lead to show their feelings" trope, you'll probably wind up liking this. Even through the lack of communication, they do have some very cute moments together by the end. It's definitely worth checking out!

Warm & sweet latte on a winter day
Definitely SUPER cute and lovely and funny!I really has a lot of fun with this web drama. It's so short but is enough to fall in love, I swear, sooo lovely!
The characters is one super energetic and another more introvert and I really love this kind of couples. In this drama we have a cute and pure romance, don't have a big plot, just four episodes of just their feelings. One of them was very hurt in a previous relationship so now is afraid to love again, that's something that happens a lot, we know. And the other is confused by her first love for a girl.
Till now we don't have a lot GL kdramas yet, so please give a chance for this one! You can find it on YouTube!
