Probably one of the best cbl I've ever watched. Even better than ABO & RL
ABO & RL are totally different genre from this. You can consider those more on the lighter side. Here the plot is thick. The acting is on another level. Yun Qi aka fan has done a damn good job for his debut drama. Hao yi ran aka yao has done a phenomenal job with his role. You know an actor has done a good job when he can make u sad or cry or feel every emotion his character feels. That's exactly what he's done in episode 8 and the reason i thought i should review this now!!
Initially the drama started pretty light. Just a manipulative seme trying to trick the uke into love cz he thinks the uke sees the world a certain way that's not as dark his view of the world. It was pretty fun kinda gave ABO vibes till episode 6... but episode 7 onwards when yao started realising what fan had done and him being in denial trying to deny his love could ever do such a thing to him. Those subtle sadness he shows their interactions even after they makeup🤌🤌🤌 chef's kiss.. u could see him hurting even if he smiled.
He nailed it in the 8th episode where eventhough he realised his love had done that he tried to stay strong tried to deny it one last time and went into the room and said "lust blinds judgement. I lied to myself and others" as he looked at the messed up bed. Kinda trying to deny love trying to make himself believe that it was just lust hoping to feel better from it. He hit the final nail when he came out and revealed to fan what he found. Damn the way he cried asking him what did he ever do to deserve this (literally nothing) and to do 1 last favor by not showing his face to him this life and that he would consider this last year a nightmare 😭😭😭😭😭 yao was never someone who could fall in love and open up completely to someone. But he did that for fan. Just that morning he asks his mom if fan was the man who would make him believe the world is a better place but fan broke everything. For yao he didnt just lose his lover, he lost his faith in people, his ability to trust people, his everything. That's how heavy this drama is and the actor has done absolute justice to the role❤️❤️❤️
Also this one had the best redemption arc ive ever seen in a BL. I was wondering what Fan would do. Frankly i was surprised. He fixed every mistake he ever did. Fixed Yao made him even better than before. Gave him the family he longed for... and the ending was just beautiful 🤌❤️
