I'll Be Waiting For Season 2

I refuse to believe this is how this series ends, so yeah, I'll be waiting for season 2! I really enjoyed this series. It's giving KinnPorsche, The Heart Killers, and it reminds me a lot of Jack And Joker and honestly, many more BLs with the same vibe or story! And I enjoy those so much! This wasn't an exception. I really enjoyed the story, the characters, the way it was slow-paced, and a possible season 2?! Count me in!

But yeah, the character dynamic is very intriguing. You would expect the gang boss to act all cold and mysterious, yet he's outgoing and truly just adorable at times with his "idc" mindset when he truly does care. While Ho Cho Sam looks like he would be acting like the gang boss, but instead he's actually very quiet and soft-spoken, mysterious at times, and just very #leadingtheway. And I honestly really enjoyed that swap in dynamic because, as a watcher, you'd expect the opposite based on their roles!

I really liked how there wasn't, at least in this season, some side couple that just distracted us from the main couple, but instead, we got hints and snippets of other queer representation, like the cops being with each other as a one-night stand and the girl working with the gang boss being a lesbian! I liked that, and tbh, I wouldn't mind seeing more of that in season 2 and, if anything, a little more in-depth about the cops' relationship with each other.

I enjoyed how slow-paced it was story-wise, and they weren't, like, making out by the 2nd episode. Everything was slow, and even when we did get those kind of scenes, it wasn't excessive and over the top. It was really well-balanced. The only reason why I didn't rate this higher was because now I'm here waiting for a second season :C. And though I did like the slow pace of it all, I think I would've liked to see more of the main couple as a couple. This entire season was spent on just figuring things out and finding out feelings, and towards the end was when we finally got the "yes, we both like each other," but boom! Gang boss arrested, and now we won't know what happens next.

But that's just minor. I just really liked this show, and I wanna see more of it, so I'm getting impatient already lol. It's kind of giving me PTSD of Jack And Joker, though LMAO, but anyway. Yeah, I did enjoy this series, and I'll be patiently waiting for a second season to continue this beautiful story!
