I wanted to like it so bad..

Seeing a Korean BL about music students was so exciting to me at first because of my love for music and LGBT dramas. But I was just so disappointed. First of all, the premise was just boring to watch. An 8 episode drama would usually take me no more than 2 days to finish but this show took me 5 days. There was so much potential to dig deeper into the characters trauma but it felt so lackluster.

But the bigger issue lies within the ships. I liked Taeyi and Seheon at first, but after Episode 7 I was done with it. Was no one who recommended this show gonna mention the casual SA that went unmentioned? I don’t care if Taeyi was hurting, I don’t care if Seheon “wanted it”, when Seheon told him to stop he should’ve done exactly that. It’s 2024 and we still have these kinds of scenes… sigh.

And don’t get me started on the second couple… I hate bully x victim tropes so much that this was a no-go from the start. But the line “I’ll love you even if you bully me” made my stomach twist in a bad way. It’s such a shame cause these actors would be good together, it’s just the characters.

Anyways, point is I wouldn’t waste your time on this show. It’s not that good. Watch The Eighth Sense or something instead
