A story of true love for EVERYONE, straight or gay; great script - and voila! well acted too
Super cute, realistic, and very funny story of true love. A true rom-com.
A rare jdrama that has good acting.
The script is great. This is a story of true love as it is in real life, to normal nice people. It is sexy in good taste, it is caring without soapy, it is very very very GENUINE and realistic and HEALTHY. It does not have false prudishness like most straight kdramas have, and it does not have overdone lewdness and twisted sexuality - esp. associating s.x with violence and games - like so many BL dramas have.
>>>> I recommend this drama to anyone - straight or not, young or old, first timers or married for 100 yrs. <<<<<
The drama shows what true love looks like, acts like and thinks like......
A super cute story of true love. So different than most BL dramas which honestly are too lewd or playing games. This drama too has a very common plot of a convinced gay male who runs into a closeted gay male and kinda shocks him and cajoles him into it, however, it lacks the sexualization and predatory feeling that so many BL dramas have. This drama is UNIVERSAL, you could play it with straight ppl too.
The plot is actually a mimic on the common straight plot from kdramas - a popular charmer suave guy falls in love with a clumzy insecure not-popular shy loser chick who is KIND good person. In the straight context, this plot is super sexist. The female is the dumb one and the male is the smart one who runs her life bc she is so incompetent she cannot survive on her own. Such dramas glorify the man as the "higher" one.
In this gay drama, the main protagonist is an insecrure clumzy unpopular shy target of love.
But how it is done is so ... well done. It does not put anyone down, nor does it make the "more suave" person more "interesting" or "higher" in status
I would encourage everyone to read the review that is on the top o MDL reviews, by TsangYang. It says it all :) I just filled in some holes.
This drama reminds me of BL kdrama Heesu from Class 2 which talks about two gay male high schoolers in love and one of them getting out of the closet. Heesu drama also has positive female models and does not portray life as "planet inhabited by gay males" as most BL dramas do. Hessu drama is balanced, just like this drama.
