Unnecessary drama as is common in BL shows but still tolerable(?)

This particular episode's plot is when you can tell author tried to sneak in their fantasies about wanting to create conflict, while building relationship and also dress up characters in silly outfits.But to be honest, while OG!Apo may be an art major, our fake!Apo is not. So throwing an event at him and expecting him to organize it is as the fact that someone can literally read your thoughts. Ik he has worked many jobs, but a 100 year anniversary party is actually a huge deal, and even he admits he has never organised anything like this.To add on top of this: he decides to please his mother-in-law so much that he is okay with ditching his actual fiance. The side-couple was doin their thing, but the chemistry is not as good as the main couple, feels rather forced at times.None the less, the kissing and almost bed scene where one person is literally wearing a tomato costume is pretty funny if nothing else.

Love of friends vs career changes

YuYu has taken 200k out and a ten day hiatus. His staff is going crazy trying to figure out where he is, what he’s doing and who’s he with? They are clueless until a call from contractor Sun enlightens them because he is not happy with new site location. They all go to find YuYu and photographer designing her house. She is going to have surgery and will most likely end up in a wheelchair so he designed her home with that in mind. It was a thoughtful gesture and I think his staff was kinda gobsmacked about it. Lin has some choices to make as she is offered a far better job in Beijing. She wants to know if Wu’s girlfriend will move with her if she goes. While she liked the sound of more money she said she would still choose to stay where her loved one is. This gives Lin more to think about. There is a cute moment with Dr Gu and YuYu while he shows her the pics he took. I think she liked how he saw her.🥰 Dao causes YuYu some health issues😂🤣 while he is recuperating in hospital, he hands off the design changes to Wu. Wu is ecstatic he gets to flex a bit but finds it harder than he expected. I gotta smile when YuYu prompts him via cctv and reminds him to take breaks and get sleep. When Wu proudly shows his design, YuYu mentions the style and questions his use of AI. Wu is reminded that AI is an excellent tool, but is not supposed to be the designer. Wu should be able to put his design to paper with pen and not rely on the amalgam of other’s design ideas via AI. He proudly hands Wu his bonus and tells him AI fee is deducted from amount.😂🤣 He wants Wu to have confidence in and value his own thoughts and I found this to be a good teaching moment between mentor and apprentice. Wu takes his bonus and coats the bed with it to show his girlfriend.😂He also presents her the engagement ring she has been wanting as a betrothal gift. 😄 The same company tries to poach YuYu and he isn’t going for it. He admits he can’t work without Lin but he doesn’t picture her leaving. It will be interesting to see what happens to this group of friends. This episode was a slice of life where maturation and career changes disrupt life as we currently know it. We have no idea what the fallout will be long term until those choices are made. Do we keep what we know and love as security? Or take flight for completely new people and settings? Is it time to risk regret whether staying or going? This drama does an excellent job of presenting realistic slices of life. This cast makes their characters believable and relatable with well done humor tossed in.

A Captivating Parallel World Romance

Another great officer romance from Japan, but this one hits on a completely different level. The darker cinematography instantly sets it apart from the usual light Japanese BLs, giving the story a moodier, more mature tone that I absolutely loved. I am obsessed with height-difference dynamics and Ogami and Kano being noticeably taller than average had me hooked from the very beginning.The story is intriguing, emotional, and layered in a way that pulls you in effortlessly. Both actors deliver incredible performances, capturing that mix of vulnerability, admiration, and unresolved tension perfectly. Their chemistry simmers quietly beneath every interaction, and I cannot wait to see how their feelings slowly transform into something deeper and undeniable. I am fully hooked already and what a fantastic start.
