Cute! Totally recommend (mini rant at the end)

This story was super cute! I've never watched a korean BL before and I was pretty impressed at how far they went (especially in the steamy scenes).

Story: It was good! I liked that it was real and serious, but wasn't overly heavy and was still pretty light-hearted. I like how a lot of the topics are discussed and am glad that homophobia wasn't a part of the story. I really am down for 30 minute dramas versus 1+ long ones and appreciated how well it was paced. I will say the final episode was probably the worst just cause of how uneventful and slow it felt. It wasn't bad by any means, just was a story wrap up.

Acting/Cast: I LOVED the cast. I think everyone played their role super well and was here for everyone.

Big Thoughts: I totally recommend this show overall! If you want a digestable BL with some steamy scenes and want to feel all giddy without it being silly, this is the show for you!

Now for the messy drama gossipy stuff. First of all, I was here for Ji Hyun GAGGING Eun Ji. I was eating the scenes up with them after he started standing up to her. Also I will say that I liked Jae Won's character a bit more cause his felt super relatable and real. I loved Ji Hyun and thought he was cute, but he was kinda selfish and ditzy at times. It's cute until you meet someone like that in real life and then it's just like ehh. Also poor girlfriends of the boys! I feel like we were always focused on them and I really wanted to see a more reciprocal friendship with Ae Ri and Yoon Wo rather than just being a shoulder to cry on.
