Slow Burn, Fast Kissโ€ฆ We Were Robbed!

Binged I Became the Main Role of a BL Drama in one sitting before Season 2 drops โ€” only 3 eps, under 3 hours, super easy to get through. The leads? Stunning ๐Ÿ˜ with great chemistry ๐Ÿ”ฅ (that birthday cake moment was seriously cute ๐Ÿฐ๐Ÿ’•).

But letโ€™s be honest โ€” the plot is very simple. It gave me similar vibes to The Spark in Your Eyes (2025 Chinese BL) โ€” both are about actors falling for each other while filming a BL. Not saying one copied the other โ€” just funny how the trope is back again ๐Ÿ‘€.

Still, I was kinda bored ๐Ÿ˜…. Nothing really grabbed me or made me feel butterflies. And the biggest letdown? That so-called kiss at the end. ONE. SECOND. I waited all 3 episodes for something swoony and we got crumbs ๐Ÿ˜ค. Whereโ€™s the passion? Whereโ€™s the drama? Hoping Season 2 delivers a proper kiss and some actual heat! ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ

Itโ€™s a light and visually pretty BL with a cute pairing, but if youโ€™re looking for intensity, keep those expectations low.

๐ŸŒŸ 7.5/10
๐Ÿ’‹ Watch for the pretty faces, stay in hope of a real kiss next season!
