Is it finished?

Overall I good BL with amazing acting. The pacing was a little slow. I was very invested in the story which sadly lead to disappointment. the second to last episode was very emotionally heavy, the final wallows in the sad tone until the very last shot where there was possibly a hint at happiness? We aren’t given any answers we have had for over half the episodes to the point I had to check I had actually watched the last episode. I understand wanting to let the viewer make their own conclusions but this was a bit too extreme and I feel like the time put into the show wasn’t worth the payoff at the end.

unspoken longing

the story flowed like water smooth and soft yet there is no conclusion its the mix of satisfying and wanting more. " unintentional love story "still is my all time fav. for it has a story beginning and end. although this drama comes from the same makers they opted to displayed it like a poem with the lights , visuals, and emotions (the ups and downs of sadness and happiness) .. i think it meant to be seen by the heart not the eyes and i totally agree with and enjoyed the most.. the actors were superb and in some scenes I could see and feel the passion and understand the "fever" in the title.

valeu a pena a espera!

estou tão feliz que a espera valeu a pena!!

uma das minhas reclamações sobre uls foi como eles introduziram algumas coisas envolvendo o dongee e o hotae e deixaram de lado na série, e eles decidiram nos presentar com isso daqui. gostei muito como a história dos dois foi contada, eu sabia que não seria uma obra muito focada no romance mas eles entregaram muito mais do que eu estava esperando. É muito bonita a relação de família retratada aqui, dá pra ver que existe um amor muito genuíno entre os personagens. Acho que sonhar com um outro filme/série narrando eventos do futuro é demais mas espero que um dia aconteça :).

p.s. a fotografia e trilha sonora continuou sendo um trabalho impecável

We need a season 2

Great story, production and cinematography in general. The actors did a great job at depicting the characters well. I will also opt to buy the comic as well due to their great performance.

We need a season 2 to follow with their story during and most importantly after ULS. They have great potential to show all the intricacies of establishing a gay relationship in a small town while battling with your own internal issues. To me the transition from TTOF to ULS makes perfect sense for DongHee's character because not being accepted by your family at that age messes you up in many different ways inside that some choices might not make sense to others but it will make sense to the abused queer person. That said, a second season could flesh out the story a bit better to depict the whole change of emotions the characters go through the years.

Great supplementary spin-off to ULS

You can feel the raw emotion almost immediately. Acting is not the best I've ever seen and there is some cheese but the EMOTION is dripping and the tension is palpable. The sexual chemistry between the two are top notch. There is indeed an intimate scene (more than one actually... we have been BLESSED) and they will leave you breathlessly clutching your heart.

You do not need to watch Unintentional Love Story to watch this but I do recommend watching ULS afterwards to help continue the story along (with the added treat of the main couple as well). If you're like me and feel this was not enough, lets rally up and PETITION for a part 2 shall we?

PORTRAYS REALITY OF LOVING WITH A SAME GENDER

The Story was not something new for me, two guys that is confused and ended up falling in love with each other since child hood or young days, but this show presented it in a different way that it was so beautiful, it feels like a Korean Version of Your Name Engraved Herein , if you knew that show .. I got the same feeling
I just really felt bad that the characters have to choose to run away from what they were feeling becuase it was not common and not accepted during those years even more than it was in some parts or ways being accepted this present years.
It feels like too short but at the same time it felt enough, I was not okay with the ending that they only have shown the two of the lead characters met again and probably continue their love, but at the same time It was okay for me that it ended up like that. The last scene was like the director have given us the choice of how or what we wanted to think what happened after they met when it was shown .. it was a good idea
I felt really sad about their story, i really hope they will be able to continue their love.
I have nothing else to say about the acting specially Won Tae Min .. I have seen him in quite some dramas, he always does great, be it a thug , a collector and about the kissing scene ! I was really glad about it, it felt real.
All in all, even the story was common for me , but I am again for another time impressed about how this drama or movie made .. it was beautiful and heart warming and above all , it presented what really happens in real life for those who falls in love with their same gender
Highly recommended show !

Amazing, emotional and romantic movie

I loved watching ULS when it came out, so I was really excited for this. It took a few months to get to international audiences but we finally got it. The movie was emotional and romantic and very well acted, the actors do an amazing job and have overflowing chemistry! The kisses were super hot.
The story in itself was nothing groundbreaking, childhood friends to lovers but very well written and directed. I was expecting the ending to be sad since this is a prequel and they're not together yet in ULS and while the ending was sad, it wasn't as sad as I thought it would be, more bittersweet than sad.The ending was really well written and didn't break continuity with ULS, but I wish we would get a sequel about them after ULS. I wanna see them in their happy dating era pls.

Another best KBL you should watch

Dibandingkan drama utama mereka Unintentional Love Story, chemistry mereka disini lebih diperlihatkan.
Emosi yang muncul diantara para aktor dan disandingkan dengan OST yang menyentuh membuat penonton dapat merasakan secara tidak langsung emosi yang dituangkan didalamnya.
Disini Han Dowoo benar-benar terlihat sangat manis dan cantik tanpa mengurangi ketampanannya, berbeda dengan saat di ULS dimana dia terlihat sedikit tua.
Director membawakan kisah singkat mereka ini dengan sangat baik.
Durasi yang lumayan sedikit, namun pesan dan isi cerita dapat disampaikan dengan baik.
