I'll start with the good because it won't take as much time as the bad.
Earth and Mix are honestly really good actors and I'm blown away by their chemistry everytime I see them together.
Korn looks at Win with so much love and lust and Win does the very same, it's both beautiful and frustrating to see two characters who love each other that much but can't seem to realize it. It's been what ? 15 years (just guessing) of those looks and Dr.Non is just 'there', wondering when they'll jump each other. Lin not knowing how those two feel made me so unimpressed I slowly started to lose interest in her character.
Oops I started with the bad. Let me go back on the good - the music ! They had budget and it shows, the songs were all beautiful as well as the scenary. It did make me think of ATOATS but unfortunately it means we can't help but see the differences with the plot and how the characters were written, and think badly of A Cupid's Last Wish.
I was told to think of it as a trope : mutual pining + immature character + misunderstanding + food
Unfortunately they've been pining for almost twenty darn years. TWENTY. YEARS. I thought they were dating since episode 1 first minute but apparently it's normal to stare at your CLOSE FRIEND when they sleep, live together and brush their face in their sleep. I have to reevaluate my friendships, i'm obviously doing something wrong.
I really wanted to love Win, but he was immature and hot-tempered in a really abusive way with his family and it's just impossible to be supportive of his actions in the first part of this drama. Korn...was... really 2007 seme gay character. Wise and cold and seemingly unaffected. I think that's why I can tell I'd have dropped the drama if it wasn't for those actors. This dynamic is exactly like how 'healthy relationships' were written back in the days. An uke or powerful bottom who refuses to THINK and a seme who never speaks. That misunderstanding was so stupid I'm still shocked it took so long to deal with it when they've been adressing it since episode 1 - it's been a bit more than a year. ONE YEAR of not taking ONE SECOND to even consider that you might not see the bigger picture. Win has been friends with Korn for 15 years and he 'dumped him' after one meeting with the lawyer.
If you want my opinion : give it a try because the drama is indeed beautiful and ALL the actors deserve some fame. Jan's acting unfortunately didn't shine but it doesn't mean she isn't a good actress so i'll defend her to the moon and back. The scenery and music also deserve some claps. But honestly the plot and characterization... It was bad. Really bad.
