Head 2 pillow

This is what happened. Usually, watched at night. Yes, for me it was that uneventful and bordering on boring. There was nothing about the story or the acting that screamed must see. It dragged along three couples and a spare to the most obvious ending. Albeit, the second couple, Farm and Van did have a more realistic problem than the first. Why does someone keep sabotaging the most loving relationship he's ever had? Walls built by insecurity, lonliness and fear of wanting someone who may eventually leave due to his bad habits. Fears realized, faced and attitudes changed. Though the change had no impact whatsoever. Everyone's acting was just above surface but not stellar. Even the spare. I would love to see a more mature role for JJ to stretch his acting skills beyond being a filler.

The father makes a decision to protect his family the best way he knows. Acceptable. What is not acceptable is why did they keep it from Jinn. Jinn who has suffered the loss for so long accepts with a simple explanation and support from J. Hmmm, that's my response to that situation.

Jinn and J are arch enemies though with Jinn harboring a secret crush for J. J begins to have premonitions of Jinn's future. They ultimately clash, resolve and mature over 12 episodes. It just feels like there weren't any crisis moments that felt like an actual crisis.

Overall it did not have an impact as much as I Saw You In My Dream (similar premise), Boys In Love and Gelboys. If Head 2 Head is your first bl, it is a gentle entry and should be viewed as such. A serene piece that never gallops but ripples to the end.
