It's very early to say which way this is gonna go, but a few thoughts:
-I'm really just here for Kim/Cop (b/c aren't we all?) -I found Ming's corniness in 2 Moons funny and I find Mark's corniness funny here too. -I don't think this series is meant to be taken as seriously as the "BL is beyond this now" commenters are taking it -It's coming off as basically fan service (but I'm not mad?)
Ultimately, I just feel like: either this is gonna really suck or it's gonna be my guilty pleasure of the year.
It's really not. As usual, the effeminate character is predatory and ridiclous. I don't see how that is remotely…
Well, here's hoping for a better future. I Told Sunset About You is next on my list, so now I'm looking forward to it even more.
None of few Filipino BLs have seen clips of have stood out to me, so I've just been basically ignoring them, but if they really have some nuance, it might be time to check them out.
This show is so good. After I saw the first episode, I thought I'd wait until the whole thing aired so that I could binge later, but I couldn't resist. Kurosawa needs to be protected at all costs.
Like in straight dramas, the harasser are straight girls/boys...just like that in gay dramas they are gay.And…
This crossed my mind too. I think the other posters are basically missing your main point which to be seems to be: femmes need to stop being typecast so often.
This was a great drama that truly deserves every compliment it gets. The actors are well-experienced and deliver the characters so well. As the story follows the life of a gay couple in their 40s, it's a special insight into a realm we don't often get to see portrayed in media. If you want a well-done slice of life series to make you feel good, watch this.
