Couldn't this have been a full series?
In my strongest belief, had this been a full series of like 12 to 20 episodes, this show would've been a BL classic. I'm not really much into iseki/time travel shows unless you can make it good, and Tinted With You had all the stops to be good. The problem was the length. For whatever reason that I can't find out (probably due to budget reasons), the production company decided to make this an 8 episode series each of them like 10 to 12 minutes long, and most of the time is either recapping last episode or a super long preview of what the next episode is going to be. The story felt completely rushed with modern boy transports to Joseon era Korea, modern boy has to fit in, romance happens, boy now has to return home. Uh, where was the action? Where was the conflict? I mean, couldn't we have some Inuyasha stuff happen at least? Oh, and as much as I love the theme song, I was sick and tired of it by the last episode. Like, did they not have any other songs in their soundtrack? Jeez...
Overall, this show could've been great, but it missed the mark due to how much they were allowed to produce I guess.
