Man that was sadly underwhelming
This series really did not stick with me emotionally. The whole time I was really wondering if Tanrak was even religious at all. Let me just list all the things I did not like.
> I actually did not like Barth's character. His character felt more like a devil sent to tempt tanrak and not an innocent love portrayed between two people that happen to love each other. He was not very understanding of Tan's hesitation in abandoning the church and just felt overall like a really selfish character. When they are arguing and he tells him God has never done anything for him so why does he even spend time praying... That scene really pisses me off and it seems Bart makes no attempts to understand Tan and his faith. He just keeps trying to get Tanrak to abandon his faith for him like wtffff. I HATED that.
>No one is homophobic like huh... This was very weird, everyone is like "love is love my sweet child and God will love you no matter what." What kind of fantasy world are we living in lmaooo. Even the best friend being like "I am just upset you guys didn't tell me"... Oh okay so yeah homophobia is obviously not a problem in this world I guess. They show a bit of the father being homophobic and some of the classmates but other than that it felt like a very non issue. Even in the big 26 i meet deranged religious people telling me homosexuality is a sin in a fucking Wendy's on a tuesday afternoon like can we be fr.
>Tanrak spent most of his life in the church. His whole life was the church. He lived in the church LITERALLY and was working on being ordained and it seemed so easy for him to just drop that for Barth. Tankrak should have literally been CRUSHED mentally, emotionally and spiritually for his whole life plan to change over night like that. He left behind everything he ever knew. He left behind his dream of meeting his parents in heaven. He left behind God. He left behind his entire life for Barth and it was not treated with any emotion whatsoever. Tanrak should be screaming, crying, throwing up telling Barth "If I choose to love you there is nothing left for me" or something like that. He just is not as devastated as he should have been, I have felt more emotion when picking which monster flavor I am gonna get for the day.
Overall it was a decent drama I still recommend everyone to watch it but sadly it just did not hit as well as something with this type of story should have hit and I won't lie I was pretty disappointed.
