Sweet and heartwarming

I really enjoyed this. It gave me that little burst of happiness in my stomach so often. While there were a few things that could have been better, the acting and general premise was great! Hope to see more from these two actors.

For such a short series the character growth happens fast (a bit unrealistic) but the growth is a natural progression of the character arc and would have been perfect for a longer format series. New characters unexpectedly popped up at the end, but again, it feels like a longer story pushed into the limited time available.

It kept surprising me with some very poignant lines that I did not expect - "people who build up walls". The restaurant owner also was not a stereotypical bad guy and the company CEO was a great character. And the moments of heart fluttering sweetness - when he keeps asking him when he's coming home and he waits at the door for him to come back.

With some Korean BL shows the gay part is ignored, like Wish You. It's just about two people falling in love. In this series it is a bigger aspect since that photo is an important part of the plot.

One thing that was unexpected was the kiss. The very first kiss looked very awkward and I thought it would be one of those types of shows. But the very last kiss was definitely much better. It's like they were both a bit unsure about how this should go and as their relationship grew, so did their physical closeness.

I loved it and will definitely give it a rewatch.

Also, when will we get a full length Korean BL series T__T
