I’m giving this show an 7/10.
I loved this show so much... until the ending. For multiple reasons, I was disappointed in the way that this was concluded.
First, I really didn’t like how the entire show XHT refused to say that he was “gay” there are so many micro-aggressions towards the gay community in this story about young gay love... not to mention that after YSG dies Haoting’s parents are pushing him to find a “wife “ which I found detrimental to the positive gay storyline.
Even at the end XHT claims to only have loved YSG which I think still cast a negative idea on homosexuality. Some people swear XHT was “pansexual” rather than gay but I call bs because dating one man while refuting the fact that you are homosexual does not a “open to loving all genders and gender expression” pansexual, make.
I also thought the random super young doppelgänger of YSG was tasteless and cruel. It was a super unnecessary plot point.

Ultimately, I thought this was a terribly cruel end and definitely not justified in anyway... it was a curveball to the gut with virtually no payoff.

I think the denunciation oh the ENTIRE HiStory series is a bit dramatic and you still have a fan in me but how bout you do a real story about real gay people. Instead of these super machismo bro’s that’ve never liked guys before and are only attracted to “THIS ONE GUY” but still totally appalled by the idea of being with men... except this one man... which totally doesn’t make them gay... P-UH-LEASE.

Disappointed, because I really looked forward to this story every week.
