Grizzly bear

I think Gao from RL is the only green flag ML I have seen in CBLs. This is my 1st time seeing a green flag top as the ML. I watching this drama expecting him to be a red flag but bro turned out to be the chinese version of Prapai from LITA. I absolutely loved Jing An. His acting and his character was perfect. The story was also pretty good with some minor flaws. For me the major issue was with Xing Yao's acting. He nailed the sections where he had to seem numb and expressionless but then failed when it came to expressing his trauma and many other scenes. So both actors were going on 2 absolutely different wavelengths. For instance, XY's past is revealed JAs eyes are filled with fear and tears. He's hugging XY like he doesn't wanna lose him and he's helpless n hurting for him which was done well. But then XY is crying and shivering but then it didn't give trauma it gave faking cold. So yeah, that happened in multiple places.

JA is my fav character. I usually don't mind weak characters but XY and his friend weren't my fav. Ngl i kinda felt XY used his friend and later left him once he had JA to back him up. He didn't try to make up or anything. Especially when the person on the other side is you're bff who protected u and took care of u all your life. The friend wasn't a saint either. I totally get why XY didn't choose him. He did care for him but then he also kept looking down on him instead of helping him cope he kept asking him to give up on music n find a real job... n yeah how the hell can he tell the bullies where he was and what he was doing🙄

Overall it's good not the best but binge watchable
