No Dating at Boarding School (2025)

A great KBL

I loved this one! The plot, the flow, the acting... everything is great! The main leads acting is really good! The kisses? Lovely 💓. They had very good chemistry together. There are some parts of the narrative that feel rushed, but it's completely understandable as it's a short reels format. Some people really don't like this format, but if it's something well done like this one - that even showed some of the struggles of coming out queer in Korean society - and we can get more KBLs thanks to it, then I really appreciate it. After all, a good production is a good production no matter the format.

Loved the Series, Hate the Format

I dont care what others say, i reallly hate this 2minute vertical series format - something that is designed and meant to be watched on your phones especially for short attention spanned viewers.

Its a shame really because this series was actually good and could have been great. Ther story was simple but ample enough plus eventhough a lot of the cast is unrecognizeable but they all did a really good job. The main leads are really good looking and are very likeable plus they really did a good job. The music could is good too.

The format just didnt give the show enough time to breathe. Sometimes there are scenes when i felt like i missed or skipped something, The pacing felt rushed. I also dont understand why it has to be vertical. Didnt the makers know we can flip the phone sideways to make a wider view?

Imagine if this was a proper series, at least an 8 episode with 20 to 30 minutes each. They could have developed everything properly and gave us viewers enough time to bask in all its glory. It could have been so much bigger than it is right now but instead of being a great one, it felt like an easy to watch series that is also easy to forget.

I dont blame the creators for wanting to capture the GenZ audience and realeasing it in this format. Maybe there really is a market for this because there is already a few of these type out there. What im sugesting is if they want to keep doing it like this then maybe just release a fuller version of the same series in a more traditional format.
