It has been a minute since a good taiwanese bl came out, so I'm really glad I actually loved these two first episodes. The plot is intriguing enough and the cinematography is satisfying to look at; plus the two leads seems to have a great chemistry. My hopes with this drama are getting higher.
Also, not the "I purple you" on his hat? Man, my army heart π
hi, sorry, where do you watch this series this year?
Hi, unfortunately, I watched it on a site that closed down this February T^T I downloaded the episodes, but I only have the italian hardsubs version (if you're okay with those, dm me, I'll find a way to share the eps with you).
There are some shots of Liu Yi that are genuinely stunning. I'd say the dramatic scenes are the best, the comedy is a bit awkward at times. Still very much invested in the whole story.
I just finished the show and dude, same. Geniunely thought the sub teachers WERE in a relationship, I was so confused…
Sameee, at first I thought they were gonna be the classic hiding but green flags gay couple who was gonna, like, "mentor" the main leads, but damn I couldn't have been more wrong. They threw us a curveball for sure π
Whoever stylist did the costume designs and all the different kind of hairstyles + accessories deserve a raise, my god, I'll kiss them on the mouth damn they're so good π
I know I should be cheering for the ML but damn I couldn't care less about him actually π Shangguan Qian is probably my favorite character in the drama, but also Gong Shang Jue and Yuan Zhi?? The two brothers just have my whole heart π
I wouldn't ever imagine they'd do another drama together, but I'm so happy about it!! I adored Love in The Moonlight, they are both so good at acting and their chemistry is over the roof. Flower Boy's teaser looks promising, I'm intrigued and def left me wanting to know more about the two leads + their story.
This is probably gonna be one of my most anticipaed bl drama (and hoping it will be released before next year).
i have a feeling its bc they were forced to cut 3 eps (from 40 eps to 37). hopefully the flow gets better!
I don't agree with it either, but unfortunately it wasn't my choice to make lol. A very weak beginning is usually a deal breaker for most (including me) so really idk their thoughts process.

If that's the case I can see why these episodes feel so choppy π Let's hope they decided to butcher the start so that they don't have to ruin the end sigh. I'll try to push through these first five episodes and then decide if to stuck around or not. I was really anticipating this, so finger crossed π€πΌ
I don't know if it's the writing or the directing/editing choices, but this drama isn't flowing like it should. I still have to finish the 2nd episode, but so much already happened and even if I barely know these people, they keep introducing new characters. The change between scenes are weird af and the whole thing feels disconnected; the wuxia fights are barely okay + the color grading is,,, plain to say the least.
Honestly the only thing I'm enjoying for now is the acting of the two main leads, which is sad bc the premise was kinda interesting. If the editing doesn't get better, I don't know how much I'll be able to stuck around even if Zhou Yiran's acting (and the fl's too) is pretty commendable.
Vier is being such a sweetheart for now that I will have a real hard time forgiving Kelvin for whatever he's gonna do (+ the multiple kidnappings). I'm good with fucked up relationship only when the toxicity goes both sides π
Only thing I can say about the ending is that at least it's better than Stay With Me's fuckass finale π
Definitely left me wanting a lot more cause I feel like we're barely half into the whole story? Sob. Loved the characters tho, the two leads where great, but I admit I had a lot of fun watching Gao Tian Yang lmfao that boy was hilarious.
More on plot, I was so sure the sostitute teachers were already in a relationship until like episode 7?? Bro I was flabbergasted when I understood that was indeed NOT the case (even if they're clearly in love with each other) and then they proceeded to leave us hanging on their story too π
Plus the heartbreaking details of how Sheng Wang started to call Jiang Tian as "Ge" instead of saying his name only after realising his own feelings as a way to draw a boundary and remind himself that's a line he cannot cross... Devastating.
Never forgot to connect your headphones before starting ANY episode of this drama damn π
Overall a very unique serie, it's real but with that fever-dream like setting that Taiwanese are so good at. I especially liked the actor who played Yueh, his character just won me over.
