The sweetest, most wholesome, heart warming drama.

I really have no words to describe how this drama made me feel. To be honest, I come from a generation in which LGBTQ+ movies and dramas were very, VERY tragic. We either got killed, physically, verbally and mentally abused, sexually assaulted, abandoned, and a lot of other sad (and somewhat traumatizing) things that, at some point in my youth, made me feel quite scared of being myself. I was young not too long ago, you guys, and I want you to know those times were actually a lot closer than you think. Around seven or eight years ago. So, I would like you to imagine even just a little bit of the happiness this drama brought me.

It is fashion nowadays for Japanese dramas, anime and manga to have these very descriptive titles, and I find hilarious how spot on it was. I have said this before and I will keep saying it because they deserve the recognition: Japanese BL dramas have been a true delight lately. We have had way less BLs from Japan; however, these handful of stories have been able to surpass Thai BLs exponentially. They have been unique in their own way, creative and, most importantly, completely different from each other -- the last point is what Thai BLs lack the most, unfortunately. Still love them, though!

The story is very special. I don't think I have seen anything like this before. To be honest, the title pretty much says it all: a simple plot that blooms into a wholesome ending. I think the most successful thing about this series is how well established the personality of each character is. Even with those who happen to be similar, there's still specific traits that do not make them a copy of the other. Now, the story isn't as fascinating as "Fujoshi, Ukkari Gay ni Kokuru," but it still manages to captivate the audience with its heart warming scenes.

I know this drama is about homoerotic relationships, but I must mention how in love I am with the main female coworker. She is simply the COOLEST! I just love how down-to-earth and supportive she is. She deserves the best this world can offer.

Sis, I could not recommend this drama enough. If you are new to the genre and are looking for something short and sweet, this is the drama for you. If you are a BL veteran, you'll fall in love with the classic elements of boys love showcased in the story. Really, you should totally give it a try.
