Cringingly funny

I started watching because the algorithm brought it up and I thought I'd give it a try. I'm not going to lie....I spent a lot of time wondering why I was watching it. It was slow and a bit lame.

Let's be real here - Sky is a stalker. I've said it! Sitting outside someone's house every day isn't normal, especially when your crush clearly has no interest in you....but this is the BL world.

However....every so often, I can't stop laughing. Sky/Guy's jealous face makes me laugh as does his 'pouty toddler face'. He has such a lovely smile too! My favourite face is the utter disdain on Venus' face when I know he's thinking: what is he saying?' - about Sky. I also laugh as he desperately tries not to laugh in some scenes. Sometimes I don't know if I should laugh or cringe at some of the scenes.

Janus & Bom are fun and their NC scene took me (and Venus!) by surprise. Tonkla and Tong are a bit dull....but they are probably the most real: two busy people trying to keep their relationship from falling apart.

Venus and Sky's first NC scene was a bit more realistic than I expected, in some places! In fact, most of their NC scenes were way more realistic than I expected.

What I liked: Janus - he can be so full of angst one minute and then really funny the next. There's a particular scene in the last episode that made me laugh so much. He was like a crazy person.

Something else that made me laugh is Sky's weird contorted mouth when he was kissing - he didn't do it every time. It seemed to be when he was in an awkward position. I found it so funny that I'm laughing now as I think about it!

What I didn't like: Sky's over the top toddler behaviour when he didn't get what he wanted. Stop!

Overall, not the best BL drama I've seen but it was funny for so many reasons.
