amazing. it was soo fun. The acting and the production were all so high quality. The intimate scenes were SO GOOD! Like dancing and the kisses. Around the end like 1hr 40min or so, I love that hot almost-sex scene. I really love the end. All the dances were amazing.

I wish this movie was a drama instead. tbh some stuff went too fast paced cuz it was only 2 hr, it needed more even an hour or 2 extra. Also more reciprocating from Sugiki, Anyways, the actors killed it. I knew the cherry magic ML was good but I never knew THAT good

6.5 or 7 stars

I really liked with MC trying to get Ml to fall in love with him. The first half was good and interesting, but then the second half started to bore me. Once they got together, I just wasn't interested in the plot, like the exbf ect. I wish they just talked to each other. I started to skim a bit once I reached ep 15 or so. But I liked their chemistry.

I love this drama, the journey they went through was filled with obstacles. At first I was hesitant to watch this drama cuz people call ML someone who's super unredeemable and a black flag. Like, not even red. Usually I don't like those types of abusive MLs but I really enjoyed this story. First off, the story was excellent; every episode something was happening. It was like a train wreck; I couldn't look away. I was hooked on each episode and binged it.
This was more of a psychological drama, which was really interesting. A lot of manipulation and mindgames happened

MC and ML's chemistry was on firee. Great acting between the two. Also I love how stylish their clothes were.

I love how strong MC was after enduring sm. It took him some time before he gave in to ML at the end.
 The way the drama portrayed ML's trauma and the episodes he'd get was well done. Tbh I started to feel sorry for him. Obviously he needs a therapist lol. I know some people may say that ML is only faking it at the end, that he didn't change. But by the end I do think he changed for the better. And the way he was trying to set things right in that 1 year. Personally I'm really glad they got their happy ending, I'm not a fan of sad endings. They went through sm, I just really hope they will work this time. I wish we had another ep or 2 seeing their life together now

I literally haven't slept since starting this drama. It's 5am right now, and I couldn't stop watching. I heard so many good things about this drama; I can't believe it took me soo long to finally get to it.

The plot was gripping. From the first ep, I couldn't stop watching. The whole twin switcheroo was fun to watch and how White had to navigate this whole new life and became part of the gang.  The mystery behind who hunted down Black was also really good. I realized who in ep 5 but wasn't 100% sure. The action and mission parts were fun. I enjoyed the romance sm, I really love how we got to see them slowly become friends and then lovers. And then once they got together, it became sooo cute. I love how ride or die they are for each other. And the second couple was a really nice watch too. I love them together and that painting scene is engraved in my memory. So beautiful. Last ep honestly made me tear up, I love it and how everything ended nicely too.

The acting from everyone, especially MC, was top-notch. He could convincingly play twins and make their whole vibe feel different too. And I love how protective Black is of White. Loved the brother bonding.

However I didn't really like that Black's gang and friends he made kinda was ok that he left. I thought he'd have some loyal friends who wanted to see him still like Gram but he only cared about being with Black's ex girlfriend

I couldn't stop smiling as I was watching this. It's a really cute fluffy drama where the popular ML is in love first. I really like how considerate he is of MC. He's so loving towards him; it's so sweet. Love how patient he is. I love the friendship with ML's friends as well. They were all very supportive and not the stuck-up type of popular friends.  Ngl at the end I did start to get a lil bored but it's still enjoyable overall. The extras were cute and the ending made me grinning sm

I can 100% see myself rewatching this in the future. A fluffy, cozy BL drama. It gave me those high school shounen ai manga vibes I used to read

there's so many eps that come out everyday, it's hard to keep up lol

I don't usually watch dramas when they start to air not long ago but I've been waiting for this last year ever since I watched the anime season 1. I'm glad I got to watch it. I really like this couple; they're the best friends to lovers with a slow burn. I love how they resolve any conflicts between them pretty fast; they have trusted each other so much since the start. It's just really nice to see a drama where the leads work together, scheme together, and just overall respect one another.

I'm so glad that I finally got to watch ML's acting in a lengthy drama! He's amazing. I first watched him in A Familiar Stranger, and he was SO GOOD! I know that last year he had 2 big dramas, but the plot didn't interest me. I might give it a try another time. I liked FL here too; it's my first time seeing her, and I thought she did a really good job.

The story is good, but tbh it's not really my type of story I like. Political intrigue and palace dramas are usually boring to me. Actually it helped that I watched this drama since around the start of airing, so I was able to take breaks from the story and not be too bored from the politics (it did get interesting in ep 20-25).Although the beginning started out funny and lighthearted but then turned darker which I liked. But what I love about this story is the leads' unwavering strength in each other and the side characters. I love the side characters sm like the scholars and 2FL. they were such great characters. I love 2FL's character growth and had a more well-rounded role later on.

The ending is good. I mean I knew it was gonna end with censorship, so we coudn't see a better ending cuz it was a bit abrupt in the drama. But I like that they clearly showed that they remembered each other.

It was fun waiting for the drama and watching the discussions happen too.

I enjoyed this. It’s cute and heartwarming . I love that their personalities are so different but work well together. It really feels like watching a bl manga with how MC monologue things

I knew this was gonna be dark but this was still in the comedy genre but didnt feel the comedy at all. Too dark and sad for me.

5/27/2026-

On ep 8 rn. Really loving this. It's been awhile since I watched a kdrama (romance at that) so it was nice getting back into it again. it’s a funny drama and the leads scenes together are cute. And it’s a very entertaining drama. I'm prob gonna watch another kdrama romance while waiting for this drama. Also I love how much ML yearns and loves FL omggg. And his Aura, he's so confident and handsome. I love ittt. And I love that every episode makes me laugh.

Btw the grandma, I last saw her in my father's is strange. I can’t believe I still recognize her from that drama like it’s been YEARS since I last watched it. It's so nice to see her again.

I think in the first 8 eps or so I was really enjoying the family drama and revenge, but then after that I think I got tired of it and it was too much family drama. I do really like the romance tho and how supportive he is of her since the beginning. Like ML really loves her even before they got married. But romance started to get toned down in second half. Anyways I think the last 3-4 eps just started to bore me, that's all.

This drama was absolutly AMAZING!!Right at the first episode I was like, "Ok, yeah, this is gonna be a great drama." I love how we got background info on many characters, even some of the villians. No one felt 2d, they were all compelling characters. At first I really didn't know what I was expecting. I knew the parents were advanced cuz they were like bringing out guns and know how to fight. but wow they were all retired agents. I love that the show focused on family, hardships, and sacrificial love. Like how much the parents would go through for their kids and to keep them safe. I cried so much. Like ep 2 and 6 were the eps I cried sm in. Seeing Lee Mi Hyeon and how she had to keep moving foward for her kid. And the electric libarian dad where as he was fighting, burned the family photo to save his son. There were so many great parents in this. I loved seeing all the family bonds like mother-son (main one), father-daughter (the fast healing fam), and son-father (the strong fam).

And I like how action pact it was, All the scenes was well shot and acted. There was just so many characters I loved. And I like how we got to see the present and also the full past agent story. My favorite part was maybe the love story in ep 8,9,12 with Lee Mi Hyeon and Kim Du Sik (the fly guy). They were sooo cute. The way they gradually started to notice and know each other. And then the dinners and walks outside of work too. I loved them. I really want another love story like that but longer. really well thought out story. I love the whole superhuman power part of the story too and how the kids got their powers too.

And overall the story was just super interesting. It was hard to stop watching with the whole superhuman powers, agent setting, ect. Tbh I hope there's a second season. I feel like they gotta resolve some stuff like how the USA is still hunting them down. I want to see them fully take down the corrupt government.

I tried to watch this before but dropped but decided to try again.

I Finished the drama and thought it was a good thriller/horror type story. It's a bit slow tho so I sometimes skimmed it a bit. I really liked the performances from the 2 male leads, Yim Si Wan and Lee dong wook. They made it more interesting, especially Lee dong wook. He played the villain role so well! It's cool seeing how versatile these actors are. The ending was really good; I liked how the reveal happened. First we thought it happened this way, but it didn't.

And the bromanceee it was so good. I love how obsessed ML is with MC and calls him babe lol. Reminds me a bit of Hannibal.

SPOILERS:

This was so good. I did avoid this movie for some years (since 2022, I think lol). But I heard it was a sad ending, so I avoided it until today. I really enjoyed how the FL and ML fell for each other, it was really cute, and how it all started with how FL tried to get more info on the guy for her friend but started to fall for the guy's friend (ML). It's kinda like a love square, so angst was expected. I wish they actually got together tho, they never had the chance to even be in a romantic relationship, and it sucks cuz like they were yearning so hard for each other too. The friend was really nice to help out and tell ML the truth (that FL likes him).

Btw a lot of really well-known actors here.

I cried a lot at the ending. I felt like his death was unnecessary and it could've ended happier, but the directors just didn't want to. He died in 2001. But I really don't see why we needed a sad end for this movie. (if not for the ending, it would've been a 9-10 stars.)
