Doomed young lovers - separated by family, hatred, and homophobia, will they find their way back?

This so reminds me of Addicted ....has strong shades of obsessive, forced-separated, and traumatised lovers...two people, still harbouring strong feelings towards each other, the appearances notwithstanding...and unable to give up on each other even though the world around them tried everything to make them do just that

BL-needle Score: 7. reasonable BL-ness

Started out uber cute, the ML looking super handsome, doting on the MC, and bordering on obsessive-possessive.. the super red-flag-ey, won't listen to no -kind ...just when they find each other, their love story quickly veers towards a complete mess and heartbreak, with families, money, reputation and homophobia ruining everything....separating them, across oceans, and timelines

There was a movie on the same book in 2016, which has rave reviews. While I haven't watched that one, I am definitely glued on with this show. Looks all set to blaze!!!

Verdict: Watch
