This drama has a happy ending, but not for who I wanted it for.

The story is baseless and just has plot devices everywhere. I wanted to give it a chance, but come to realize that they forced the couple from the beginning.

I want to say that I was very biased towards Pinjun, because he is the perfect guy. He's caring and deserves to be happy. The two main characters are very unlikable from the start, and honestly deserved each other. I thought it was weird that they had SP episodes. I wish they were about Pinjun.

I don't want to be the one to argue with a lot of the other reviews, but I don't see how this depicts reality. I would say that lack of communication is the reality, but cheating, literally in your partner's face, is just plain awful. I do agree that there are many walks of life and that each are valid, but I deplore straight up infidelity, especially when its done in such a dirty way. By episode 3, I honestly was done with watching because I knew that the good guy was going to come in last. However, I continued to chug along and see what happens. My reality is that if someone was rude to me after giving them so much of myself in the 2-3 weeks of knowing them, I would've been long gone. Its so weird, I never knew a BL series would make me this angry, but I guess this was the writer's vision.

As a gay man I empathized with Pinjun so much that I didn't care about the true endgame couple at all. If you came for the drama and heartache, definitely watch this. Don't say I didn't warn you.
