Best watched with a headspace that is ready for heartache

Compared to the usual BL fare, The Eighth Sense deliberately creates curated gaps in its storytelling, leaving the viewer to piece the story together and fill in the ambiguities with their imagination. 

It is also an emotionally intense slowburn that demands patience – if you’re looking for a breezy show to chill out with after a long day, this may not be what you want. Eighth Sense is best watched with a headspace that is ready for the heartache.

Jaewon and Jihyun are drawn together during a string of chance encounters. This infuriating yet thrilling dance around what will become of them is what makes The Eighth Sense so remarkably relatable. 

Curiosity towards another person. The constant searching gaze, only to be met with disappointment when you don’t see the person glancing back at you. Stolen moments that become a shared secret.

The series concludes with a finale that fills one with a vast sense of possibility and yearning for a romantic excursion, however fleeting.
