I'm resolved to watch the first episode and see if this ticks all the boxes. The last time I enjoyed Pavel was 2 Moons 2. That series had its own problems but he was really enjoyable there.
I couldnt finish Coffee Melody mainly because of his uber-nasal partner in that series.
I just read the novel,only 5 ch though,there was absolutly no story,like big dragon now that was a mess (visually…
Sounds awful! 2023 is very different from previous years. Now BL fans have a multitude of options and my fear is that our faves will not survive if they keep making bad choices like this.
Should Pavel be shopping for new management? Is it that bad?
The boss and his man have decades of history. Chen Yi NEVER stood a single chance. BUT I'm sure he's not sad because he's got a sprightly young Ai Di to have own version of history with.
Loved this series. I shall be rewatching over and over because it will be a while before I am over them.
IDOL Factory is coming for the title. They are definitely contenders as a company to watch out for. I am deeply impressed with the story lines coming out of there and now the quality of productions. Super proud of Saint :)
Cool, cool! Which of the series you watched this year, would you say was excellent?
I can see how that's possible. I skip his entire conversation with his father in Ep12 because yikes...but there are moments that I find deeply touching, when Pat goes to look for Jeng after learning the truth from Tae, the subtle searching of Jeng's face to see if he still loves him, the decision to unblock, the conversation in the kitchen about second chances and finally the sweetness that follows when both hearts are open. Wow.

I actually appreciated the story itself. A manager falling in love with a subordinate and the journey towards finally finding each other fraught with angst and high level tensions. I also appreciated the pacing and fact that the story telling had actual depth. Nothing was obvious. One had to actually think to figure out what was going on. This meant abandoning any preconceived ideas at some point. Ep7 as an example where I learned that being screamed at by an elder is viewed as deeply rude in Asia and its not uncommon to cry in such situations.
Granted, there were some annoying things about the characters, e.g. Pat's constant crying grated my nipples, but I didn't allow his flaws to overshadow his entire character. The acting was also not perfect, so I watched with some generosity and suspended my judgment deciding to give them grace due to their (lack of) acting experiences.
I hope I am making some sense. Let me know what you think.

I threw in the towel and cancelled my subscription because I ended in other unmentionable platforms anyway.
