Ok so, not someone who usually leaves reviews also I'm very late to this but I felt like I should. No, heck I need to. You've probably read the reviews above and yes they are absolutely correct, this show is absolutely insane. Batsh*t crazy to be exact. Whoever wrote the script was defo either high, half asleep or both. Because in what drama do you find nearly every genre under the sun.

Lemme start from the beginning, -----

So the story is set on another Earth-like planet called **Planet Y**, where there's a virus called the **Affinity Virus**. Sounds like a normal sci-fi dark romance, right?

Wrong.

The virus mutates into a new strain called **Affinity B**, and people infected with it become known as **Rens**. They suffer from violent episodes and basically have the anger management skills of a lit stick of dynamite. Then there are people infected with the original strain, **Affinity A**, called **Yins**, who can form pacts with Rens to calm them down.

Already weird right?

Not even close.

The blood and tears of Yins make Rens go absolutely FERAL for them. It's literally a heterosexual Omegaverse. I sat there thinking, "There's no way they're actually doing this."

And then...

THEY PULL A WHOLE DRAGON OUT OF NOWHERE.

So now we're dealing with a Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Dark Romance, Heterosexual Omegaverse featuring Dragons , and somehow... some fvcking how, it works???

This drama is genuinely one of the most batsh*t insane things I've ever watched, but that's exactly why it's so entertaining. The trick is to stop trying to make sense of it and just enjoy the ride. Once you accept that absolutely anything can happen, it's ridiculously fun. Trust me, by Episode 5 you'll defo be completely.

I also have to give the cast their flowers because EVERYONE understood the assignment. The chemistry between the main couple is fantastic, but somehow the second couple completely stole the show for me. That's honestly a first for me with short C-dramas because I'm almost always more invested in the leads. The actors absolutely nailed their roles and made even the craziest moments feel weirdly natural.

And don't even get me started on the OST. I'm an absolute sucker for a drama with a good soundtrack, and **Affinity** delivered. One minute it's giving funky, upbeat tracks, the next it's hitting you with dark gothic vibes, and then suddenly you're listening to an emotional ballad. Having songs in both English and Mandarin made it even better.

So if you have even the tiniest urge to watch something that feels like five writers locked themselves in a room and refused to say "no" to a single idea, PLEASE give **Affinity** a chance. You genuinely won't regret it. It's the kind of unhinged masterpiece that neither of us knew we needed until it existed. 😭
