Ah...what a pity. But I can understand you. I usually don't like it either, but in this case they were all very nice and fit together perfectly (and although I was secretly rooting for the Dragon Prince, I was pleasantly surprised that China (!) produced an open-minded drama like this and allowed it to end like this. So overall it balances out and was acceptable for me ๐)

Not necessarily! There are definitely better ones out there. If you need something more fun now and like reverse harem, Iโve got a recommendation for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2s7rkmHs_A I totally loved it and it contains a lot of eye candy ๐คฃ I'm so glad that reverse tropes are becoming more common ๐โค๏ธ

As always ๐คฆโโ๏ธ Personally I'm still not over the church thing, what was that all about? That was just stupid and unnecessary? ๐ All in all, this drama is unfortunately a waste of potential and budget. I mean, both are good actors and the costumes are top notch.... but they clearly saved money by hiring bad writers lol
Nah sorry, this is one of those dramas where I wish the FL had ended up with the SML. The selfish ML and the selfish SFL really deserve each other in my opinion.
Lots of confusing scenes (especially in the second half, see spoiler below if you want to know more) that don't…
Towards the end, FL tries to die and there's a big drama around this scene (she blows herself up ๐ )... Only to see her alive a second later. And all I could think was: what was that just now? Also, I didn't understand why she was angry at the ML in the first place. Some things just didn't add up (like the ML remembering her as a child, but nothing comes of it). I don't know... in general, the costumes were nice, but I couldn't really get into the plot.
Lots of confusing scenes (especially in the second half, see spoiler below if you want to know more) that don't make much sense. ML looks very good in the uniform though. And all the women's dresses are very nice.
Practically the same plot as โOut of Control Starlightโ. Difference: The actors in this one are far more handsome (imo) but the plot is more defined in the other one.
Wow, that was bad (plot-wise). I mean, it's clearly a high quality production, but it has so many flaws imo. For example:
1. ML's acting. No matter the situation, he either looks happy or neutral, but I feel like he lacks emotional depth (where's the sadness or regret or grief for example?) 2. the plot annoyed me (caution, may contain spoilers): First, the way he made her leave sucked. I mean that was the thing he thought of to protect her/for her own good? Are you kidding me? Second, I hate the plots that are supposed to be revenge plots but are resolved after a second. There are just important scenes missing. (She had scars and stuff, and he's like, โOh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like that,โ then the typical knife act ensues and voila, let's forget everything that happened and play happy family. It's annoying as hell. But that's just my own opinion...
Overall, I just wish they had done more with the high quality filming.
If you're here for BL... be prepared for it to be on a platonic level only. There is no intimacy or kissing. The plot is ok and I like the strong bonding. There is an alternate version of the plot (with super good looking actors ๐ โ Reach for the Stars โ) but unfortunately, the plot of the other version is not as coherent as this one.
If you're in the mood for a short BL, I'd rather recommend โBe Moonโ (it's more explicit than this one).
Agreed! Which tropes would you want to see reversed?
Honestly, any trope where the FL is the one with the power (like MLs usually are) would be fine. I loved the HaremโReverse that came out recently, but I'd also love to see Mad-Dog FL + blind ML or Villain FL + Time Traveling ML or...(I could literally go on forever, but the first two would be pretty interesting and unique to watch, I think ๐)
What about you, what trope would you like to see in reverse?
I'm watching episode 4 right now and this show is so sweet it makes my teeth hurt. I'm still debating whether this is a good thing or not.... let's see how it continues ๐

Nah, that may be a bit too harsh. They try to explain it but it just doesnโt feel coherent to me ๐คทโโ๏ธ
