Is reality truly what made us fall in love or was it the heat of the moment?

This review is based on my personal thoughts and opinions, it's not meant to sway or change yours in any way, please feel free to agree/disagree with it.
See, I don't have much to say in this review (yes, this is going to be in the style of my recently preferred method of writing short comments instead of my in depth reviews, sue me) but I still wanted to add my two cents to the pile, because while it certainly wasn't perfect, and the ever present romanticism of non con and dub con is still an issue in these CBLs, I genuinely found myself overlooking these details because the series was truly done very well, again, I'm not excusing any of the problematic aspects of the plot, believe me some of the conversations in this script had me doing laps around my room, not to mention the toxicity both couples displayed one way or the other, but the author/actors truly gave it their all, and while it wasn't perfect, it was put very simply, very touching.
Regardless of my opinions and morals, all the efforts truly are worth the praise, and for the first time in a very long while, a series has earned a full 10/10 from me in the OST/BGM department, I don't think I've enjoyed the entirety of a series' playlist this much since TTEOTM, so it would be a crime on my part not to at least praise this work even if only briefly.
If you want deep analysis on the plot/acting, then I'm afraid this review isn't what you're looking for, I suggest browsing the other reviewers' opinions on it. Do I plan on going in depth on the plot? Honestly I don't know, but what I do know is that I definitely recommend checking it out, I don't think I've enjoyed watching any other BL as much as I have these past couple of weeks (with the exception of TPP and AWSWTWISHD), not because any of the newer releases are flawless or faultless, but something about this one feels very raw and sincere in a way not many shows have been for a while, it might be the novelty of having the Chinese industry in the race again, or it might be the break I've had from this genre still being in affect, whichever it is, I highly recommend giving the story of ZZ/GZ and ZX/FC a try, Ollie and Shuyuan gave a very compelling performance for being such young actors, I'm looking forward to their future endeavours in the acting scene, so yeah, I really encourage anyone reading my review to give it a watch, it might start slow and shaky but as I said, the sincerity is what really kept me engaged and coming back.
Hope everyone has a good day/afternoon/night 🤍🤍
