First impression
So far I really like it; the only "flaw" is that episodes are quite short. Other than that, I'm happy with everything and super excited for the next episodes.Episode 1:
I got a bit confused at the start.
So far I see a lot of resemblance to the second season.
I know it's too early to judge, but I can already tell the second couple with Jae Min and Khun will be my favorite; they look really cute together.
So far it's really good, quite a powerful start. I am really invested and excited for what else is to come.
Episode 2:
Jae Min's smile every time he is around Khun is just something else; they are so cute.
So far I really appreciate how good the acting is.
I was wondering how the two couples will meet each other, but it's all even easier than I expected since Jae Min and Hyeon Jae know each other.
Episode 3:
I prefer the second couple's storyline more. Because in my opinion, Hyeon Jae's and Su An's story is quite overused, with constant drama, running away, and misunderstandings. While Jae Min and Khun actually have more of a fresh storyline that, in my opinion, is just more entertaining to watch.
Episode 4:
It's quite exhausting how they switch from one couple to another. Because one of them is going through all the drama and another is just two cute guys having fun. There has got to be a better way to switch between couples without making it feel so choppy and chaotic.
Episode 5-6:
I knew that the time would come when our Jae Min and Khun would have their dose of drama. Yet I'm still heartbroken over how everything played out.
Episode 7:
Even though Khun is upset and acts cold towards Jae Min, you can still tell that he really cares a lot for him.
The kiss scene really reminded me of the main character from the series "Love for Love's Sake" kissing a bully.
Episode 8:
I genuinely do not care much for Hyeon Jae's and Su An's storyline. Every time it's their screen time, I just feel like I'm watching some commercials and waiting to continue watching Jae Min and Khun's couple.
I kind of feel bad saying all that, but the first couple is just so bland, their plotline is overused, and I just wish they had a more interesting story.
Of course they had to add misunderstanding for the second couple too. I'm almost 100% sure that Stella is just Khun's sister/best friend, but of course Jae Min will assume something else...
Episode 9-10:
I'm definitely warming up more towards Hyeon Jae and Su An's couple, since their slow burn actually makes more sense to me.
At the same time, I think the whole drama with Stella is so stupid and unnecessary and only here to stretch this series further since I guess they had no better ideas. Still, I appreciate it not being too prolonged, and if not for the drama, Stella is a nice character and adds more depth to the series.
Episode 11-12:
Everything is going great, I love the fact that we got Ye Eun and Stella as a GL side couple. I absolutely adore these two together.
I'm happy to see Su An and Hyeon Jae finally clear their misunderstanding. Hopefully there will be no more heavy drama, and it's going to go only up from there.

They're actually using the real Waker!!!
The fact they're using the real WAKER for this as the Fake Waker is AMAZING. My boys are getting attention they so greatly deserve.Using one of the members it was to be expected because then using clips from "idol life" would be easier than having to make and film them again lol.
Woojins just getting his story started I like that they're using theass media angle and how the worlds a hive mind like it's 1692

Overall: cliched grown adults who refuse to talk to one another. You do not need to have watched seasons 1 or 2, they operate separately from each other.

9/10 I enjoy this series
9/10 I enjoy this seriesI am not type of watcher who wants all people to be suddenly gays in the BL series. So, this series is my type. It is not too gay. Side characters are not designed to be gays so suddenly. All characters are put where they belong in terms of the story's setting.
The deliverable of the characters, to me, is believable, and fun to watch. Kim Tae Hwan (Ji Wo) and Han Hyun Jun (RoA seem to be enjoying their role and I would like to give them more opportunities by seeing how they will develop their interactions, if any, in season 2.
Ji Wo is definitely behind RoA on understanding his sexuality and feeling. And I feel like, it is a normal experience for a person who does not live in a society where LGBT is broadly accepted. RoA and Ji Wo can be a perfect match to see what is next steps in that type of relationship. And I want to know more about Ji Wo.
