the premise of age gap bl got me hooked, yet the one that truly mattered was the obnoxious storyline. i love how this drama puts bl like it's a part of a bigger complex social issues rather than solely relying on bl to keep you interested. the highlights about having a dream, letting go of your idealism, and accepting yourself the way you are despite being different than everyone else made this drama more charming and heartwarming in its own way. watching this sorta feel like a trauma healing session.

the storyline's a bit repetitive at some point, but hey it's mimicking real life and real life's boring sometimes, so the portrayal is kinda spot on. acting was good, i could feel the awkwardness past the screen though. seeing that hatano genichi was really supposed to be an awkward character, i guess that's more of a praise than a hate.

really recommend to watch if you're looking for something lighthearted! remember to put no expectation at all because this is a slice of life drama after all~
