More than friends less than lovers

I used to be an avid hater of when I’m promised a queer romance but instead get nothing but subtlety and no indication of love whatsover. Countries like these often censor queer love especially with big name actors like Taecyeon.

I didn’t know what to expect going into this, and I read a couple of comments on it, where people said it’s just pure queerbait— so I decided to avoid it.
But the more the show popped up on my timeline on netflix, the more curious I got.

I didn’t see much promotion on this show, hell I didn’t even see many edits either. So I really went in blind.

The beginning started, and from the getgo they made sure you know what the genre of this show will be. It IS a queer story, and it did not hide it.

It might not fall under the BL category but it most definitely is a love story. One that doesn’t need an explicit kiss to show that it’s romantic.

The main characters kept showing their love, and confessing in the most beautiful ways. Everything that they’ve done for each other, is a love confession.

This is one of the most beautiful shows I’ve watched…I cried so much; my heart still hurts, but that’s how you know it’s a well done show. Amazing performances by the actors, every episode captivated me. So much rawness and pain, yet the most beautiful love story came out of it.

Amazing show. I’ll remember it forever.
