This whole year most of the BL series have done nothing but greatly exceed my expectations. And I'm happy to say that this series also falls under this category. While I definitely had pretty high expectations for this one, it somehow exceeded them.
Excellent acting, a fantastic plot with intriguing and surprising plot twists, stunning visuals, and everything else are truly exceptional. And of course i wanna mention the music which is also quite a highlight for me in this series.
* Bank is a devil, wow. At first I thought he would be one of those ex characters trying to get in between the main character and their love interest. But wow, it is so much worse.
* I love all of the small details throughout the episode.
* Main character is definitely up there with the greatest main characters in BL history.
* This series reminds me of a lot of different series that I previously watched, but I want to say that the one it reminds me of the most so far is Jack & Joker, and it's certainly a good thing.
* I really like Khajorn, he is a good father as well as being just really nice to everyone, including the main character.
* I also like Sky, his cheerful character definitely helps with all the heavy themes of this series.
* Main character seeing his brother in Sky is breaking my heart.
* Main character's performance at the audition absolutely gagged me, just wow. I don't know how much was planned and how much was just pure coincidence; he still did an absolutely perfect job with that one.
