Best Korean BL so far.

Don't get me wrong. There are many great Korean BLs, incl. To My Star, Light on Me, Where Your Eyes Linger and many others. Korean BLs are becoming better and better. But this is the best one so far.

The casting is superb. I would not find a better pair of actors to play Chu Sang Woo and Jang Jae Young if I tried. Sometimes it just clicks. An oh boy, did it click this time. Visually exactly what they were supposed to be. And HOT. I mean FIRE. Their chemistry is off the charts. And their portrayal of the characters was flawless. Great acting too (cuz these Korean BLs, they have a history of actors whose acting was almost as stiff as my dong ;) gets, LOL). The main couple is such a strong point of this series, but the rest of the actors do their job just as well.

The story itself is great, the idea, the progression, the ending. Yeah, the beginning could've been a little better explained (so pay attention, you guys!), but let's not forget they don't have a Thai budget to film these types of series in Korea...yet. The plot isn't rushed, nor is it stretched out. I mean, it's just right. I just wish they could kiss more, and I hope for some more *action*, but it's just my very personal general comment to all Korean BL series.

Overall the best investment of my time in watching BLs in quite some time.
Perfect for rewatching.
