I felt betrayed by its ending.

This series has a typical romance storyline; but the gap between this away from the other BL dramas is immensely wide conceptually. The title of the series itself proves that: the interpretation of love by making a line through connecting two dots may be somehow unrealistic. Unrealistic but if it's guided by true love, then nothing is impossible.

This 2-hour series has traumatized me emotionally. The unforeseen turn of events is truly heartbreaking for me. The scenes may not show overdramatized acting (which makes this series more natural and likeable); but the time frames of their relationship added with mellow instruments on the background and wonderful video shots bring out the heartfelt emotions.

One thing that I found unacceptable in watching this (but I will say this figuratively because I don't want to spoil those who haven't watched yet): the entire series really did give a justice to the title but the emotions I felt is a line from the first dot that missed the second dot. I can accept the way things ended ONLY IF the team has provided additional scenes that will leave me out of confusion. As far as I was seeing myself at the perspective of one of the main characters, I couldn't find any logical reasons aside from true love to make their relationship ended like that.

I wouldn't dare to spoil anyone who's interested to watch this if this has a happy/sad ending. Let your imaginations run wild. Be curious and watch this!

I finished this today, the same day that I finished watching Make Our Days Count. It fueled my emotional heartbreak while seeing those main leads from that other series. I thought for a second without realizing they are just guest actors: "Am I flipping around? Am I watching a Taiwanese drama but the main actors speak Japanese?".

ALTHOUGH I RANT TOO MUCH, THIS IS A MUST-WATCH (ALMOST PERFECT but *sigh*). ALMOST REALISTIC. HEARTBREAKING. WORTH THE WATCH.
