Immersive fantasy!
I loooved this show! It got me kicking and screaming all the time. Simple and effective, touching and sweet! All characters had the chance to flow with their arc and their chemistry was truly awesome. This show made it clear that a simple plot is sometimes better than a complicated and presumptuous story. Easy to follow but charming and engaging at the same time. It was my first time seeing these actors, but they really nailed it bringing to us a moving and loving example in BL. Not cringy, but hilarious. An all rounder! OST and incidental music and effects were also quite coherent and enriched the show. I'll be watching out for more series like this one bringing some laughs, fun and relaxation when needed.Was this review helpful to you?
A really underrated series!
To be honest, I don't understand why the show received negative reactions. I do love a lot of aspects of the series. For instance, the chemistry between the couples, the acting, the music, and the plot twists. There were just a couple of things I didn't like: how little the relationship between Wang Chan and his brother was explored, which took a toll on Wang Chan's character, and the lack of background for Ian's character, making it difficult to understand his intentions.A very positive aspect of the series is the representation of how people deny themselves the chance to love because of trauma and guilt. Some consider this topic exaggerated, repetitive, or inconsequent for a BL production. I can understand that some topics may not resonate with all audiences, but that's what makes our world diverse, and we have the right to express our genuine feelings. I just hope that someone reading this will give the series a chance. 🤗🤗🤗

Underrated
I'm not sure why they received such negative reviews, but in my opinion, the main couple, LeeArm, has great potential and good chemistry. They just need to adjust to each other a bit more. The secondary couple, MonPak, is always great in any series, with excellent chemistry. The third couple , TopKrismon, has done a great job and I hope they'll soon get their first leading role. The only characters that didn't quite convince me in their execution were Pak's female friend and Top's (ex)girlfriend in the series.Was this review helpful to you?
Amazing intimacy in action!
Even though there were a couple of hitches along the way, and for some of the characters, I would wish they had a better-developed arc, I really enjoyed the second season. I fell in love with their interactions and the intimacy they shared.What also struck me as wonderful was the mention of the recent legalization of same-sex marriages. While some shows have already explored this theme, I appreciate how it's becoming more normalized, despite still being a difficult topic for many people to accept or understand. The other notable aspect is the actors' ability to convey the deep intimacy between the characters and even between themselves, which was fantastic. Overall: recommended!
