Best TV show I've ever watched
I can't rate this high enough, and I was shocked when I saw so many low reviews. Though I respect everyone's right to an opinion and know not everyone will love this show, I just completely disagree with the comments I have read. It's the best TV show I've ever watched, ever. The two main couples (Kuea and Lian, and Diao and Yi) were so adorable, with incredible character arcs. The acting was phenomenal, the music was phenomenal, everything was perfect. I have never liked any other BL show and was starting to think this just wasn't my genre, as the acting has always seemed bad/fake. This show was the complete opposite - it felt genuine and natural and wonderful. It's the first BL show I've managed to watch all the way through.The intimate scenes were well done and not unhealthy in representation, and the show addressed real life issues like living in a country that doesn't support gay marriage. There was a good emphasis on communication, honesty, and consent all being three key parts of a healthy relationship. The third pair was okay - Syn and Nuer didn't really have the same impact for me as there was very little conflict/character progression - it was just your standard slow burn romance.
I've never seen character arcs as delightful and satisfying as that of the four main characters. It was also nice to see a show that can create conflict without subjects like cheating, love triangles, physical violence, or trauma. This show is 95% fluff and cuteness. I wish I could forget this show so I could rewatch it fresh again. In 31 years of living on this earth I have never loved a show this much and I will revisit it many, many more times. Also if you need literally any reason to love this show just look at Diao and his cute kitty cat mouth! 10/10.
