A TERRIBLE SERIES, HOW I WISH I AVOIDED IT
Content Warnings:Rape (Episode 5), torture, physical violence, emotional abuse, bullying (including cyber bullying), vomiting, kidnapping, drugging, non-consensual photography and outing.
It's deeply concerning to see that in 2025, some production companies still choose to glorify sexual assault under the guise of creating “intense” or “viral” scenes in BL dramas. This approach not only damages the integrity of the BL genre but also reinforces harmful narratives that have no place in storytelling—romantic or otherwise.
The scene in question was violent, disturbing, and in no way should be mistaken for romantic tension or emotional depth. I'm fully supportive of morally gray characters when written with care, but there’s a clear line—and this character crossed it. He is written as a rapist, and that should not be sugarcoated or excused.
EPISODE 6 WAS THE SAME AS 5 HOW CAN YOU NOT PUNISH THE CULPRIT
This criticism is directed solely at the writing and production decisions—not the actor, who is simply portraying a role. Still, it’s troubling when creators continue to push such content, likely assuming fans will accept it because it’s “part of the genre.”
If the BL industry wants to grow and be taken seriously, these harmful tropes need to be addressed and left behind. There are better, more respectful ways to tell complex stories without exploiting trauma.
Many characters come across as emotionally flat and poorly developed. The performances feel robotic at times.
The storyline heavily relies on disturbing content such as non-consensual scenes, physical and emotional abuse, kidnapping, and psychological manipulation. There's very little character development or backstory to help the viewer understand the motivations behind such extreme behavior, which leaves the plot feeling disjointed and hard to follow.

A beautifully paced story, authentic ending with just the right touch of hope.
The first episode did a fantastic job of pulling me into the story right from the start. The script excellently introduced each character, making it easy to connect with them early on.Let’s start with Pond (Day) and Gun (Ozone)—they were outstanding. For me, these are their best roles yet; they truly outdid themselves. I’m absolutely loving the dynamic between Day and Ozone. Every time they share the screen, I melt. Although they didn’t get along at first due to the leap day conflict, their gradual closeness feels so natural and heartwarming.
Dew (Night) and Pahn (Dream) were also impressive. I knew Dew wouldn’t let me down, and I’m thrilled to see Pahn return in such a fresh and different role. Their chemistry is delightful, and I’m enjoying the growing connection between Dream and Ozone too.
The first 10 episodes expertly built tension and mystery, pacing character development perfectly. With clever hints and engaging storytelling, the series peaked early. Perhaps it would have been better to conclude the series within those 10 episodes rather than stretching it to 12, which may have diluted the impact
The bittersweet ending was poignant and true to the narrative, resonating deeply with the story's themes. I'd much rather have an authentic conclusion like this than a forced happy ending that felt out of place. And I'm grateful for the hint of hope left at the end, adding a layer of complexity to the finale.

Was excited but fell on my face
I was initially thrilled to hear about a new vampire-themed BL show, Unfortunately, the series failed to deliver on my expectations.The storyline was predictable. The music tried too hard to evoke emotions. I’m sorry to say this… but I’m disappointed. The CGI and special effects were ok.I just feel sorry for the cast because they all did their best with what they were given. It seemed the screenwriters were hoping that having a good-looking cast would distract the audience from the poorly developed script.
Despite the attractive leads, the show's storytelling didn't capture my attention as a fantasy fan.

SLOW START
ITS A VERY SLOW START I'M ENJOYING IT, MEW'S EXPRESSIONS ARE AMAZING , the actor who is playing mew's dad is looking like my senior(LOL). 4 episodes 16 minutes and less than 1 minute interaction between the lead. The 2nd leads are really interesting as well. I REALLY LIKE ACTOR WHO IS PLAYING THE DOCTOR ROLE.Was this review helpful to you?
