This is not a masterpiece, and it is not something I would watch again. At the same time, there is something different about this series compared to standard shows in the genre. There is a truly tragic character with Kafkaesque traits, a character who keeps humiliating himself constantly. He is always in some kind of dream and then wakes up moments later, feeling guilty for the injustice he inflicts on himself.
In my view, contrary to many viewers (bad people, in my opinion), this is a very human character—so human that he manages to irritate many viewers. This is not the first time I have noticed this lack of compassion toward such a weak character, and I also see it as something that says a great deal about the commenters. A viewer who cannot understand such a character cannot understand what love is, in my view, and perhaps is a person (like many people today) who is unable to accept someone who is different, or who behaves differently, or who thinks differently.
It is as if the character does not follow the rulebook and completely deviates from the normative path of romantic series. I do not remember seeing many characters, especially main characters rather than supporting ones, who humiliate themselves to such an extent.
In addition, this actor, who once did not appeal to me, has become someone I genuinely like, because he does an excellent job—one could say better than most Thai actors. In short, he is a truly excellent actor.

The second episode is also excellent. What I do not understand is why, in these series, they do not film outdoors as well. There are low-budget series that film outside; even a single minute can add more authenticity, instead of just moving from room to room.
Dropped. A banal plot, banal acting, and characters that are boring and especially frustrating. Okuno So’s acting is irritating; his character is annoying. This was already the case in the first season, and now it keeps dragging on with the same problems.
For example, the character is in a relationship and asks himself internally: why is my partner acting strange? In a normal, mature world, he would ask his partner:" is something going on? Tell me—I feel something isn’t right and you’re not saying anything. Is something happening at work? Are you going through something?"
Communication can also extend drama, not end it. This dragging out of time and the use of lack of communication as unnecessary drama no longer works these days. It’s boring, exhausting, bland, uncreative, and banal.
This conflict of one partner work promotion is very worn out in their series. They are capable of creating a different plot, something new. Not everyone is constantly offered jobs abroad…
But of course there’s also an economic consideration here. Chances are this series exists in the first place for that reason. After all, they’re not interested in the viewers but in the cosmetic products they want to advertise.
So...am I the only one who finds the romance here kind of weird? It’s either rushed so fast that you don’t…
Right, I felt the same way, which is why I dropped the series.
It is a combination of several issues. There is poor editing, for example the two hospital scenes were really strange and forced, with the towel scene dragging on uncomfortably long. On top of that, Dunk’s acting is very bad, and here it takes on a different weight. This is no longer a fluffy romantic series but a relationship between two grown adults, and in that case it simply does not work. Of course, it is also possible that there is no longer the chemistry they had before. I notice that they are not the only couple this is happening to; it also happened with Off and Gun in their current series. There is no chemistry, but if there is a strong plot or some added value, you can somehow overlook it.
Dropped after ep 5. Dunk is handsome, but he really needs to study acting professionally, because it is not working, especially when they are already an older bl couple and not university students characters
It was fine until episode 5, but now it has turned into a joke in the romantic sense. There does not seem to be much chemistry between them, and it is simply very strange. For example, the hospital scenes are especially odd.
This may suit viewers who enjoy suspense and investigations and place less emphasis on the acting of the main characters and the romantic element.
Finally something on the top airing japanese shows that is not BL or Tokusatsu. Really enjoying it so far :)
Right, something has been happening over the past year!!! it is not normal. I do like BL, but it has become excessive in my view, with no balance whatsoever, as if making regular romance series is no longer worthwhile for them.
Are you saying about offgun.plese go check your eys thy are adorable
They are charming together and have purely "friends" chemistry, not that of a couple who fell in love. There is no passion there. Still, they are lovely . Add to that Gun has a limitation as an actor: he struggles to express complex emotions and to portray a layered character like Jira. His facial expressions are generally identical throughout the entire series.
I feel sad for all these young people. I am saddened by their exploitation, and the entire industry repels me-not because there is an inherent problem with these things, but because of 2 issues.
First, it seems to me that actors like Poom, for example, simply wanted to be actors in conventional dramas; that is how it appears when considering the previous series he acted in. I cannot speak on his behalf, but this is based on his past.
Second, they go too far-there are acts that cross the line, reaching physical contact with intimate areas. Not implication, but the act itself.
I do not think the concept itself is the problem; the problem is how far they take it and how it has become a normalized form of exploitation.
Beyond that, there is a kind of obsessiveness and an insatiable appetite on the part of these production companies, as if it defines an entire community; it borders on a certain pathology.

In any case, I’m fed up with it.
