Like with many BLs, the idea was there. But execution wasn't.

The scenes felt disconnected. The characters lacked depth outside of their most basic character traits (Ba Da being shy and basically socially inept; Tommy being an eager beaver willing to do anything to keep his mind off his depression). But at least we saw notable and sensical character growth throughout.

I think a few scenes should have been cut in order to properly explore the episode 7/8 events - because they were way too big to be left for off-screen. But I personally don't have a problem with the events, or timespan, themselves. And I really liked the premise as a whole. It had all the makings to be a cute, gorgeous, and fluffy drama that would've went into my comfort drama list.

Overall, I don't regret watching. But it's not something that would come to mind to rewatch or suggest to others.
