Did I just time-travel?

When I first pressed play on this show, I was incredibly confused. I had to double check the title because I thought I'd accidentally clicked on 2 Moons, or Love By Chance, or something. This feels like walking into a time machine that takes you straight (or well, gay) back to the old-school BL era. Not in a good way. In an 'I've seen this exact BL 37 times before' and 'Here we go again with romanticising toxic behavior' kind of way. The acting and the chemistry are pretty good, but this show has nothing interesting or fresh to offer, so I don't really have anything interesting to say either. Therefore, I'll do my best to sum each couple up very briefly:

Hill & Easter: Toddler in the body of a grown-up throwing hissy fits and getting manhandled by the college heartthrob who won't take no for an answer and posts photos of you holding hands without consent. Of course both of them continuously avoid telling their friends (and the viewers) about their mysterious past, which isn't all that mysterious if you've seen enough other BLs. Their story is also dragged out beyond any point of reason, having them act like boyfriends from, like, episode 3 but not actually getting together until way too much later.

Johan & North: Slightly more mature toddler in the body of a grown-up getting bossed around by the stereotype of an emotionally unavailable, controlling, rich college hottie. I have a head-canon that Johan was in a motorbike accident that knocked all but one braincell out of him. Because nobody who rubs even just two braincells together would ever think acting like a dick and treating them as your slave is the way into your crush's heart. Either that, or Johan is a passionate BL watcher who has taken lessons from all the wrong characters. Well, at least Easter ships it because apparently your best friend getting harassed is cute and not at all scary, at least when the guy harassing him is handsome.
