I wish they had added a little more time at the ending.
The story is younger step-brother is in love with older step-brother, who does not reciprocate. He loves him as a brother only and is fiercely protective of him and basically raising him since the parents are nowhere to be found in the show. The only thing that can happen, did. NOT suicide!! I just wish the ending took a little more care of the viewers and let us get closure. I felt I was left hanging even though I knew what the outcome was.Was this review helpful to you?
Too Short for Short Series
Overall, I truly enjoyed this series, but its short runtime, just six episodes ranging from six to ten minutes each, ultimately works to its detriment. The pacing feels far too rushed, leaving little room to connect with the main character or absorb the emotional weight of the story. As a result, the narrative lacks emotional stakes, and it’s difficult to feel genuinely invested in the characters.There was so much potential in the direction the storyline was heading, especially with the various possible outcomes, whether a happy ending, a bittersweet one, or even a sad conclusion. Unfortunately, the brevity of the series undercuts that potential, wish it would turn into a full-blown series.
That said, the cast delivers strong performances, and the music and cinematography are definitely highlights

Another Secret of Us Project
This story was actually pretty good. The characters were well played, the acting was good and so was the music. We even got all the episodes without a pay wall.The only issue I have with this is the issue I have with all of the Secret of Us projects. The plots in these stories need more buildup time. I'm aware it must be a budget thing, as well as the ongoing censorship (hence why they shoot all these projects in Japan) but without better detailing, these lukewarm endings feel rushed & half baked.
I've seen vertical dramas with deeper character development & internal conflict. However, this one is definitely the best of several that I've seen.

BEAUTIFUL! IT WAS SHORT BUT ENJOYABLE!
I like this series it was a bit short on the episodes but overall, it was worth the time. All the actors were pretty and handsome. I like how straight-forward it was bruh no intro no outro just the thing you want to watch.The ending was cool it was a cliffhanger but a realistic ending in a sense that not all love is meant to be a happy ending.
The continuation is that he got to the airport and said goodbye to his little brother then many years later. His brother married his girlfriend and had a child then lived happily ever after. 🥰😍🥳🥳

Sacrifice
A story about sacrificing your love for the other to be happy.It's a sweet drama, but it was too short, because of that the story felt unfinished. There were to many holes in the story, and scene's felt unfinished.
The visuals were great and the music was ok.
The actors did a good job and the chemistry and kises were good.

hope to see the actors in something else
Overall: did not vibe with the plot. 6 episodes about 8 minutes each. Aired on Secret of Us YouTube Official https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7BSona1dmx5qAPZpNNjT9XEv_wyP_HzT&si=ouK5zhi2gVdEigwNNote: in the trailer a character said they weren't related by blood, so they are step brothers who appear to have been raised together since elementary school aged based on that picture
Content Warning: manipulation
What I Liked
- the dreams
- visuals
- the younger character's plotting in the beginning*
Room For Improvement
- *he was way too manipulative later on, even when he came clean I didn't trust him
- the older guy was shown to be extremely straight and then the sudden 180 turn and open ending did not work for me
