Totally Underrated Supernatural BL

I don’t understand why this has such a low score? It’s a unique plot with good acting and interesting characters. Then again, maybe it’s because of the cut version that is more easily accessible, I watched the uncut version which allowed the narrative to breathe more.

I’m a massive “He’s Coming to Me” fan, so ghost BLs aren’t an unusual concept for me. However, this was executed in a very different way (though both involve mystery elements). Something In My Room was able to engage me and get me invested in learning more about the characters.

The acting is pretty good, a couple moments that felt overacted in the crying scenes but some were also very effective. Wept at the ending, so that at least means they brought it there for me (it’s a huge fail if I can’t cry, I literally cry at everything). Chemistry was pretty great, I’d be happy if the leads paired off again.
Side couple didn’t do it for me but I did love Dream (Luck annoyed me and lowkey someone should press charges for the hacking thing?).

There are some plot holes. Some things that never really get properly explained. Like did Phob kill himself? He walked in front of a car and it’s never brought up again? Also the person that hit him literally drove away like nothing happened and y’all don’t wanna know who it was? Wtf lol. That probably the biggest one.

The ending is bittersweet but not devastating. Definitely not the happiest ending, but not the saddest either. I was happy with it in the circumstances.

Overall, it’s a recommend for me! Not sure if I’d ever return to it but maybe.
