Episode 1: Sigh...my life is one disappointment after another.The only three countries I hope for decent BLs out…
First off, dismissing the entire drama after one episode is just ridiculous. You’re acting like one imperfect start invalidates everything the show is trying to do.
Korea has been stepping up its game in BL, and this one is no exception. The production quality alone puts it ahead of most low-budget BLs, and the acting is solid. Just because it’s not over-the-top dramatic from the start doesn’t mean the performances are bad—it means the actors are actually acting instead of over-exaggerating emotions for cheap effect.
Complaining about tropes in BL is like complaining that horror movies have jump scares. It’s part of the genre. The difference is in execution, and here, they’re being used to build tension, not just check off a list.
And the costumes? You’re focusing on the wrong details. The styling choices are deliberate. The oversized blazers, the polished-yet-subtly-messy looks—it’s all designed to reflect the characters’ personalities and social standings. If you think it’s random, you’re not paying attention.
The red lipstick complaint is just nitpicking at this point. This is a K-drama. Stylists have been using that look for years. It’s not some mistake; it’s a standard visual choice in Korean media.
Saying "everyone is gay" in a BL is the most redundant criticism ever. Of course, they’re all queer—that’s the point. This isn’t some accidental coincidence; it’s a story focused on queer relationships. If that’s an issue for you, why even watch?
The watch-breaking scene? That’s straight from the webtoon, and it actually matters. It’s a trigger point for the characters, setting up future interactions and conflicts. The fact that you’re hyper-fixating on whether luxury watches break easily instead of what the moment represents is missing the entire point.
The supposed “cock-teasing” over eleven years is exactly what makes their dynamic interesting. It’s not just empty flirting—it’s years of repressed emotions, complicated by personal struggles and misunderstandings. That’s the whole story.
The villain? He’s not just some random bad guy thrown in for drama. He serves a purpose, pushing the leads toward confrontation and resolution. Not all antagonists need to be deep from the start—sometimes, they’re there to shake things up before we fully understand them.
You’re holding this show to an impossible standard while ignoring everything it’s actually doing well. The story has depth, the adaptation is faithful, and the acting is delivering exactly what it needs to. If you refuse to see that, maybe the problem isn’t the show—it’s how you’re watching it.
Love is the invisible thread that binds two souls, pulling them closer even when the world tries to tear them apart. It weaves through their hearts, unbreakable in its quiet strength, defying time, distance, and doubt. It is not merely a fleeting feeling but a force—gentle yet unyielding, fragile yet indestructible.
No matter how far they stray, love finds a way to bring them back, whispering in the silence, lingering in the spaces between words. It is in the way their hands reach for each other without thinking, in the way their hearts beat in sync even when apart. Love does not demand; it simply exists, wrapping them in its embrace, refusing to let go.
The letter he wrote carried more than just words—it carries a piece of the soul that wrote it. When love feels too vast to be spoken, it spills onto paper, ink weaving emotions that tremble between hope and heartbreak. A letter is a confession, a silent plea, a bridge between hearts separated by circumstance.
Every word written is a touch that cannot reach, a whisper that cannot be heard, yet its presence lingers. It holds the weight of longing, the ache of unsaid words, the promise of a love that refuses to fade. And even if the hands that receive it tremble with uncertainty, the heart that reads it will always know—it was never just a letter. It was love, waiting to be felt.
I know it’s all in books and novels, and life isn’t that dramatic or poetic. Love doesn’t always come wrapped in grand gestures or beautifully written letters. But still, there’s something about these stories that speaks to us, something that makes us yearn for a love that feels boundless, unshaken by time or distance.
Maybe reality is quieter, messier—less like ink on paper and more like fleeting moments that slip through our fingers. But deep down, we all need this. Even if it only exists in books, in novels, in fantasy, we hold onto it because it reminds us of what love could be. And sometimes, that’s enough.
OMG i didn't read any webtoon or spoiler, and was all over DO and JM but now what you guys have been telling...it is scary to see JM like this, but someone said he does this to not loose DO as he is coward not evil.
Aesthetic is beyondddddd - it's so beautifully shot!!! I'm feeling mid about the story but it's way too early…
thats Boss for you, Boss directing skills in unmatched in Thai industry. He and his DOP are world best in terms of quality and camerawork. Look at the I series, it revolutionized the BL genre.
I get what you are saying because the first time I read the novel, I thought the FL needs professional help than…
Your logic and what you said is not right. I agree that the FL never actively acknowledges her struggles as depression but that’s exactly the problem. Mental health issues don’t always come with self-awareness. Many people don’t realize they need help until it's too late, which is why it’s crucial for those around them to step in, even if they don’t have a “right” to. This isn’t about personal boundaries, it’s about survival.
Her extreme tolerance, lack of temper, and her way of just absorbing everything without reacting? That’s not normal. That’s years of emotional suppression. And whether she admits it or not, bottling up emotions that intensely isn’t sustainable. The fact that she only sleepwalks when triggered doesn’t make it any less alarming. It’s still a symptom of severe stress and trauma. And while I get that the ML can’t force her to see a doctor, he also can’t just stand by and watch her self-destruct. Encouraging professional help doesn’t have to be forceful, but it should have been there.
And that’s where I think the writing could’ve been stronger. Yes, she improved over time, but improvement without addressing the root cause is just surface-level healing. Depression, PTSD, and emotional repression don’t magically go away with romance or time. Ignoring them just means they fester. I wish the story had delved deeper into this aspect instead of treating it as something she just “got better” from. Because in reality, that’s not how it works.
I swear, I’m gonna kill that kid. OMG, why doesn’t he understand? Too much confidence—pretending to be the best is just pure cringe. I just want to slap that smug face so hard he goes back to playing his pathetic role. I hate him. He keeps crossing the line. Man, just shut the fuck up!
And the FL at this point? She’s clearly not normal. After everything people throw at her, she just responds calmly, complying as if nothing happened. That kind of self-control—bottling up every emotion without ever venting—is like a ticking time bomb. She’s angry, hurt, stressed, sorrowful, sad... yet instead of expressing it, she walks, talks, and behaves normally. But that’s not normal at all.
As for the ML—after seeing her sleepwalk, he should have forced her to see a doctor. Sleepwalking every night is a massive red flag. It’s a clear symptom of PTSD and extreme stress, a sign that her body is on the verge of an acute nervous breakdown. If left untreated, it could lead to brain damage, organ failure—hell, even death. People throw around the term “nervous breakdown” so casually, but they don’t realize how much it actually wrecks the body.
Depression is treated like a go-to illness in films and TV, but what most people don’t know is that it’s not just mental—it destroys the body too. It leads to diseases that linger for life, even after the depression itself is gone. The damage doesn’t just disappear.
I can't believe he is just 24 and he nailed it in this movei dam The amount of crying and line of true words uffff…
even at 16 he outperformed in his first movie “Better Day” one of the best film ever…his performance at the age of 17 solidified how great of a talent he is.
Someone said song cong would end up with du man, so does that mean song cong and qi qi are breaking up or the…
Yes they will breakup and realize their lifestyles are different, their love story was never normal to begin with, QQ constant try to make it work with SC and SC trying to adjust to her lifestyle despite actually falling for her, will not work.

Also QQ and SC will start to break apart because of their lifestyles.
