Watching this because of LHY and I love the general vibes of the story, with the right mix of mystery and comedy and action. The female lead has some ups&downs but as of ep11 I'm really enjoying it a lot, especially Fu&Gu bickerings.

It does have some audio issues tho', they could have cleaned the voices a bit better (I'm loving the actors original voices tho'!)

Some of these are also on YouTube, or you could try RakutenVIKI... some suggested ways are on every drama page but many have subscriptions. And I'll send you a DM too :)

Kame + Baseball <3
I'm sure he will deliver since he's a very talented and charismatic actor, but I must admit he always ends up in series that just don't work for me and that lack energy... hope this won't be the case.

Miss them! This is one of the few dramas that I'll never get tired of watching again. <3

Hi! I found the (b)romance in this to be honestly unparalleled even in "bigger" censored BLs out there.... but, a few series with different moods (plot/themes) but similar vibes from the leads could be:

-- Realm's Night Rain Dreamlike (this basically seems like a "shorter" remake of WoH: same themes, same type of characters, even some scenes/dialogues that are very inspired by it... not the same depth, but it was a nice watch)

-- The Spirealm (this is set in modern times and it's a thriller/mystery/isekai - the bromance is strong in this one and both male leads are very endearing!)

-- Huang Jin Tai (bromance; this is a vertical veeeeeeery short drama, be sure to go on its page and watch the version with the good subs otherwise it's a complete mess)

-- Mysterious Lotus Casebook (this is actually a friendship investigation drama, BUT the bond between the three male leads is just so precious!)

-- Returned Master (bromance wuxia; some plot issues but it's still very watchable and with interesting dynamics between the leads)

Aaaaaaaawwwwwww these two are just too cute, love them!!! <3
Watarai looks at Hioki the same way a sunflower looks at the sun, he's so in love!

And once again I appreciate both boys' acting - I agree Hideyoshi Kan is a very goodlooking guy, but Kodai has such beautiful and expressive eyes!! <3

oh, and just to add: I loved Hideoyoshi Kan in his previous BL as the innkeeper Sakae, but unfortunately he couldn't really shine there due to so many reasons (although he was the main reason I kept watching till the end)... here, his Watarai was such a mesmerizing character, I couldn't stop staring at his subtle facial expressions! And dressed as a prince he was so goodlooking! T_T

Awwww, this was so unexpectedly cute! I went in surprised by the very high rating and it didn't disappoint! <3

It's not revolutionary, it's not original, but it's such a heartwarming story with very lovable characters and great human growth and bonding! I LOVED the "friendly" vibe and the overall acceptance feeling that the drama conveyed... I was also surprised by the acting, the music and the very smooth cinematography.

9/10 for me and now on to the special episodes!

the difference between "slow-paced" in Jdramas and in all other dramas always amazes me: when I watch for example a thai or chinese drama that flows very slow in terms of pacing I just put 1.25 or 1.5 and 100% of the times you won't feel the difference because it's an "empty kind of slowness".

With Japanese dramas is something completely different, the slow pace is part of the idea and it's a patient, calm, serene build up of scene after scene, thought after though... it's not "slowness", it's as if time flows in a different way inside the drama bubble. And honestly, I love that. It just soothes my heart and my mind (regardless of the drama perse).

That said (pardon me I just had this thought in mind).... I'm liking this so far! I don't know either of the actors but I think both are nailing their roles and I also love how the drama uses photography as a mean/flashback to jump through the different moments of their lives.

A great series! The acting was phenomenal, some of the inmates gave amazing performances (especially Noon as Dao) and I also appreciated the guest appearances of Davika and Ter who enriched the show (hope they can put their ideas into something else because this was one great project!).

Sidenote for Pond who always shines in tragical dramatic roles!

And I really really loved DeeDee and Porsche developement too, I was really hoping for a visit from him at the end to have a less-open ending on their side. (btw I agree on the fact that Angie looks so beautiful, with and without makeup!)

I can't give a 10 because I felt there were some time-issues in the plot/backstory but it's a solid 9 for me! And probably the best GL seen up to date.

They were very beautiful in this and looked more mature, which I appreciated, but it was basically a very refined advertisement disguised as a bonus ending.

Thanks! :)

This show is HILARIOUS! XDDD
I started it tonight with zero expectations but it won my heart in a split second and I binged all 3 eps! It reminds me a lot of 2gether but with waaaaaay better chemistry... it was ages since I last saw a romantic university-set thai drama.

Duang is definitely a one-of-a-kind character (kudos to the actor, he's nailing it... looks a lot like Offroad btw!) and Qin is also step by step warming my heart!

Also... Pepper and Lookjun, yay! <3

This episode had so many great moments, it was so funny and sweet at the same time!
I'm really loving, loving, LOVING Junior here, his range of expressions is so wide and he feels so real and vivid! (Junior&Arm scene was soooooo nice!)

Honestly I didn't think I'd like this series so much but it's getting better and better every week! It's also pretty fast-paced, so fingers crossed that with 12 episodes it won't drag and derail...

Question - is this VERY ROMANTIC oriented? I tend not to like love-focused dramas but I need a light-hearted and fun adventure series to watch right now so I was thinking of picking this up... if the romantic element is not too heavy.

I honestly loved it, right because of the way in which it blends different atmospheres and moods in a very balanced way. And although the plot is pretty fast-paced, we can "read between the lines" and see how the characters evolved through their interactions, although it's not written and said directly... this drama was made to entertain viewers, and it does masterfully - it's not perfect obviously, but I can't wait for S2. :)

After watching Melody of Secrets I'm wondering if JuMark will have an NC scene in a tent in this series too... XD

I love your comments, always so extensive and rich! :)

I'd say that Tanu saved the woman first because of a servant/debt kind of mentality so he put her life in front to repay being indebted to the kindness she always showed towards them. (we're still asking ourselves how was he there, tho').

I also agree with the production quality, although the light tones and pastel colours kinda contrast with the wild things that are happening and I think it's a choice I appreciate - but I'm really liking both Force and Book in this (but I was expecting more from Jan and Boun).

This drama was cursed for me... I must admit I'm very tired irl lately so when I'm back home after a very hard day, I find it pretty difficult to follow dramas that are very rich in plot BUT are also very slow-paced (like this was, at least up till around ep7/8).
So, I started watching weekly but ended up putting it on hold because I kept falling asleep during episodes and I realized I just couldn't skip things otherwise I would understand nothing... but finally yesterday I managed to catch up and OMG all the twists and turns this series has! I can't wait for the ending!

Kudos to Force & Book: I LOVE the fact that they were given a very different project in terms of style, story, type of characters... and I hope they can keep on sperimenting because these two have a wodnerful chemistry and are really advancing in terms of acting skills too!

AHAHAHA this made me laugh so much, but I can understand it so well! XDDDD
Did you manage to go on and get more clarity along the way? XD
