I will probably be rewatching this one. I watched this coming back into bl after a few months away, so my opinion of it may be quite low.

Devastating.

The drama was solid, and I have no complaints; however, nothing about it blew my mind. I believe the bar is set quite low for NC scenes in KBL, so the least I can say is that they were not awkward and didn't feel overly forced.

P.S. Chimon reminded me of DK a little bit ^-^

3rd watch for season 2!!!!!!!

BossNoeul always serve but the plot pissed me off, it made no sence most of the time.

WOW, 17 episodes went by so fast. Watching again because I miss JohanNorth so much! And while watching, I realised I missed some scenes because I watched the cut version on youtube! I FEEL SO ROBBED

Bro the yearning in this one... shit.

 I forgot how much I adore Taiwanese BLs. I'll probably watch a few more <3

Not bad, but too boring for my taste. I don't like how their relationship was developed. The confession scene between the MLS felt platonic; Neil even said Sea was like a replacement for Matt.....????

I loved the first half. But the themes in the second half were better executed in the Japanese version.

I'm a sucker for hight/size difference SOOOOOO CUTE!

I absolutely loved the leads! They were fantastic! However, I felt that the second couple and the parent plot could have been a bit stronger.

I liked it better than Anti Reset; I prefer the leads, and the NC scenes were better than expected.

2 need to be in a psych ward, 2 need therapy for dealing with them.

I like

• Andy Wu and Snoopy Wo are outstanding (the romantic tension was off the charts!)
• The long shots were impressive 
• The kiss scenes were natural and so cute (what's cuter than smiling through a kiss)

Other observations 

• The dad sucked, who wants approval from a father who beats his own kid?
• I wish we got more of the second couple, I loved Michael Cheng's character

This took me way too long to finish. The story had promise, but was disappointing, the fighting choreography was just wretched. The thing that probably frustrated me the most. Positives: BillyBabe's chemistry is undeniable; it's impossible to complain about it since they are together in real life. Aaaaan yup that's all the positives.

P.S. Babe is maybe the most beautiful man I've ever seen

Too short for the rating to be any higher

I love Kim Seonghyuk's acting, he really conveys the .°˖✧YEARNING✧˖°.

This was an enjoyable ride that made me think and theorize. Although the twist became fairly obvious, the "real story" felt somewhat lackluster.

It really put a damper on my viewing experience when I found out the actor who played Haruki assaulted a woman.

I watch many BLs. While BLs are predominantly for straight women, this one felt different; it felt like it was made for queer people by queer people.

I would like to explore more small-town, nature-themed healing stories in BLs. This was lovely.

First rewatch.

I stand by my rating; it definitely raised the bar for BLs but still has its flaws.

Speaking of raising the bar for BLs, may I give you Top Form? Smart and Boom don't just act, they embody Jin and Akin. Whenever I watch dramas, I often find myself thinking, "Okay, that's Gem and Forth playing a character," or "That's Joong and Dunk acting." However, SmartBoom is on another level. I became so immersed in the story and their characters that I forgot they were actors.

Joss and Gawin's chemistry is undeniable! However, I'm tired of saying this about bl, the plot could’ve used a bit of tweaking to make it better.

A deeply empathetic body-swap story

It's nice to finish a show that's been hanging over my head for a while.

I have nothing nice to say other than that, so I won't say anything more.

I appreciate that they depicted SA in a negative and empathetic way; unfortunately, not many BLs do that. However, the last two episodes were slow and lacked substance. But I'm glad Uea found peace. Also, King is a green forest!

5 out of 10 for most of the show until Asami's backstory, which came too late; the characters were uninteresting for too long. I liked Kazuma, he felt the most human, probably cause the other characters were like cardboard. Nagumo Shoma needs a good role for once.
