A Beautiful, Unfinished Journey – A Must-Watch BL Series That Deserves a Proper Ending!!!
It's an 8, such a great series let down by an open "ending", almost ruined for me if it wasn't for the news and expectations about a possible season 2 coming soon to rightfully wrap up the story the way it deserves. I've read online that these 12 episodes adapted about half of the original work it's based on but still, the creators really put all their chips forward this hypothetical season 2 because as it stands, it's an unfinished story that let's you down by the end of the last chapter. I need an ending to this story and its characters, even that stupid teacher love triangle that nobody asked for (wdym the two guys were giving me secret couple all season by their acting/body language and then they're not even an item and made me think my gaydar was broken, wtf?!?).That all being said, i loved it overall. The acting is palpable, the songs are amazing, the cinematography is enchanting and the story is compelling, memorable and beautifully told.
I definitely recommend it to every BL fan that wants to watch a meaningful story about love, feelings (lots of them), growing up, friendship and family. I will keep this one close to my heart and hope/wait for season 2. And if it does not happen, try to focus on the journey and this one will be worth your while ;)!

What a turd!
Mediocre, nonsensical and unnecessarily violent, 2 Worlds wasted my time and of everybody else who decided to watch this crap surely. MaxNat and the rest of the boys are hot and that's it, shame on me for wanting to watch a trashy bl for that vain reason...and I watched and skipped until ep6.There's an idea here but it's badly executed and badly written. I liked the nature/rustic setting but nothing else. Oh and the Boy Sompob song is good as always.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE, unless you like watching shit BL's

The Eighth Sense: A Love Story That Transcends, Captivates, and Stays With You
Let me tell you a story, about a boy and a boy...Okay, I know that’s not how the song goes, but The Eighth Sense does – and what a lasting story it tells. Set in Korea, this isn’t just another Korean BL (whatever that may mean or not mean – if you know, you know). The Eighth Sense goes beyond that, transcending the genre entirely to the point where you forget you're watching a BL. Instead, you find yourself admiring the waves with them, listening to their conversations, laughing with them, feeling with them and for them.
Yes, at its core, it’s still a love story between two boys. But it’s also just about life – how it can be amazing, then terrible, then amazing again, only to fall apart once more. And yet, we keep going. Because the key is to try, fail, and try again, never stopping. The fight never ends, and it shouldn’t – it’s what keeps us alive. And so does love, friendship, dreams, family, food, and laughter. The Eighth Sense has all of these things, and the world needs to see this story.
The cinematography is stunning – you can immediately sense the foreign director’s influence and vision, making it clear from the start that this is something different. The soundtrack is on point (thank you, The Eighth Sense, for getting me into Conan Gray!), and the actors/characters feel so real that you’ll love and care for some of them while passionately hating others (I know I did). It never drags; every episode moves the story forward to a satisfying, happy, and hopeful conclusion, proving that things do get better when we stick together – and that love always wins.
10/10. A must-watch. It might just change your life!
