An early BL that proves to be a pleasant surprise

After finally being able to watch this series with good subs I can say that it is very underrated. The storyline is silly and the production had a tight budget, to say the least, but it's cute as hell and would hold up just fine compared to some more recent productions.

It's fun to watch these BL actors so early in their careers, too. (And it's nice to see that Best already has the lean-muscled physique that remains his trademark.) For a 2017 production it features a couple of surprisingly bold kisses -- the kind where the guys sample each other's lips a first time then decide to go in for hungry seconds.

The series follows three main couples, although one of the pairings is a little messy (no spoilers). My only complaint is that not everyone's situation is resolved at the end. Maybe they were leaving things open for a sequel, however the sequel that we eventually got turned out to be unrelated as well as far less enjoyable.
