Holy Mother of BLs.

Okay. First, the OST was perfection. It complements the whole drama so perfectly and made the scenes MAGICAL.

Second, the storyline. You know, a typical drama story would have Introduction (characters meet each other), Build Up (characters started getting closer to each other), Climax (characters got together), Conflict (something disrupts their happy love), Resolution (they resolved the problem). I love 2gether, but damn their Conflict and Resolution made me wanna smack the director in the head. This drama though, poses a conflict that i've never seen in BLs before which is "afraid of coming out". As a straight girl, I didn't realise this was a problem until I see it in Karl's perspective. The drama did a good job delivering all 5 parts of a story, I have not a single complaints. This drama really deserves a 10 (oh but ITSAY is still it better, so ITSAY is like 10.5).

Third, the lines.

"I don't want to think anymore" --> Me screaming at the top of my lungs

"Please, turn back" "Please, say my name" --> me dumbstruck at the powerful scene and having goosebumps all over my arm.

"I'm gay. But I can't tell papa yet" --> me getting teary and more goosebumps

These 3 scenes are seriously so powerful and I am really in awe with the production team.

Fourth, the brave ending.

You know how dramas always have happy endings coz it's the safest bet? It's true though, I hate open/sad endings, but I was actually satisfied with this drama open ending, it was sooooo satisfying.

I SHOULD HAVE WATCHED THIS DRAMA LONG AGO

Filipino dramas SERIOUSLY NEED TO BE LONGER. I STILL HAVEN'T HAD ENOUGH OF THIS!!!
