So true ,They should have tried different scenarios. Just reading your second point(Idol &Idol) was more entertaining…
Yes. For me it was a missed opportunity to play with the concept. It somehow introduced a new concept on the finale, where Hyeon Hop wants to do it with her classmate, a red line started to crawl out from her head and it gradually glides in the air with an attempt to connect with the guy. I thought they will play on the concept of desire where S Lines are just loose and does not connect to the intended person. 😂🤦🏻♂️

I was really hoping that each episode will have a unique crime of passion then we learn new things about the line.
The can add an SLine between 2 elementary students, between a Solo Artist and the CEO of the record label, a gynecologist and his patients, s line with an infant, s line a male police and a criminal, and so much more before they decide to turn the world red.
The show could have explored what really creates the line? Is it only by Penetration? How does that work for a lesbian couple? Will dry humping form an S Line? Will a blowjob or a handjob create an S Line? If you repeat the s3x with the same person, does the line thicken or just add another line connecting them?
There are so many plot lines that they could use but they chose the most outrageous way of ending it. The main actor lost the camera in the finale.
The writer and the director could have revised the plot by focusing on the detective work while taking advantage of the S Lines for the entire season 1. The cult part was a bit extreme and made the show lose it's overall value. They should revealed that part probably on a 3rd or 4th season. The show failed to establish the pros and cons of seeing the S Lines because 6 episodes were not enough.
S Line angles or plot I wish they have explored: 1. Priest or a religious leader with thousands of S Lines. 2. Famous Kpop Male Idol with S line to another male Idol. 3. A politician with an S Line with a rival politician. 4. S Line crossing over to another country. 5. S Line with an Animal?
I wish they have created stories for the detective to investigate.
I know how easy it is for Koreans to get plastic surgery done but some characters really looked different for season 2. I started watching Season 1 yesterday and I endured the first 2 episodes and continued watching because of Seo Do Eon whom I recognize from a BL series.
I didn't say the story is bad. I made it clear that the narration style is not good for TV. We have completed ep 1 and 2 and the main couple had no interaction at all.
I’d say there was definitely a slight BL vibe right from the start as Sun and Kong were clearly a thing, so…
The narration style is too linear for a series. It doesn't build anything and hyping it with a trailer of the next episode without actually closing an episode with a cliffhanger is pretty lazy writing style.
For a series to be anticipated every week, your closing scene must have a conflict or a revelation or some thing that will hook the viewers. This series failed in that as if they are just learning how to write for Television for the first time. I base my comments on my passion for watching series and I also majored in TV back in college. 🤷🏻♂️
I understand that the show is trying to establish context, character, and motivation for the main characters but to wait until episode 3 just for the main couple to cross each other's path was a very long wait. The writer/director could have started to show some scenes where the main couple are already interacting and inject some memories and past experiences to build the storyline. I find this type of narration to be boring and not good for a series. Without looking at any promo materials or pictures of this show, I will have NO idea of the genre of this show. I hope the BL aspect of this show will start strong at ep 3 because this is starting to bore me now. 🤷🏻♂️
This can't have lower ratings than Heesu of Class 2. This show has a lot more in terms of production value, story, and chemistry. I am enjoying episode 1 as I write this comment. KENTA'S CHEST will heal all of my anxieties. 😂
Something's Not Right and that's the WRITER and the DIRECTOR. 😂
The characters must be established not only with personality but also with Consistency and Motivation. I feel that the characters are not acting as young boys but for me, they both portray as girls that are tiptoeing around each other.
I enjoy the actors. They are all cute and interesting but the story really can still be improved.
I love it. There are some people complaining about the poor screen time that Hee Su and Seung Won display in the…
If this is not BL, then the show is terrible for any other genre. If I want to watch straight couples falling in love, this is not going to be a top of mind recommendation. 🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
but it's already past the halfway point 🥲🥲 there's only two episodes left if you exclude tomorrow's episode
I will still prefer this BL than a series that pretended to be a BL by using the Main Character's name as part of the title but it turned out that the BL couple are just side characters of a straight couple that explored a tennis career and a music career. 😂🤷🏻♂️
It's too early to judge this series based on the released episodes. The continuous tug of war of emotions is driving me crazy. I am enjoying the indesiciveness of the character and I can feel the immaturity. It brings you back to those times where you thought you completely know yourself but then again, you will contradict your own words. I may lack the experience in criticizing a BL series but I find it unfair that this series is getting some hate. Let us all wait for it to complete. Let's ride in to the foolishness of the characters or probably the production's stupidity in delivering the plot. For now, let us choose to enjoy and rate it once completed. ☺️
We have to make ourselves loud and clear that they should not masquerade a straight drama with BL couples as frontrunners. The show was a complete betrayal. I waited for all the 10 episodes to be released and ignored most of the comments here so I can be objective but oh my God, this series failed in every aspect. I can't even believe that I have to endure Heesu's sister and the latters love problems. I had to sit and stare while Chanyoung was fighting for his dream to be a tennis player. I had to cringe for Ji Yu's music career. I was really hoping that they will reserve the last 3 episodes for Heesu and Seungwon.
Homophobic directors and producers should be punished for taking advantage of the BL fans. Stop BL Baiting us. We can watch straight dramas if we want but don't shove it down our throats especially when what you have produced is a terrible show!

The UNCUT version is all we need. 😂
