This was actually my first time watching a drama with a hint of BL, which is usually a genre I tend to avoid. But since the description mentioned it was a “censored adaptation of the same-sex genre,” I decided to give it a chance. At first, I was expecting more of a strong brotherhood-type relationship between the two leads. Some of their subtle interactions felt a little awkward to me personally, but I eventually put that aside and focused more on the story itself.

And honestly, I’m glad I did because the drama was really enjoyable. One of my favorite parts was watching the leads work together to solve the mysteries behind each door. The cases were interesting, and their teamwork made the whole journey fun to watch.

Ling Jiu Shi’s character development was also one of the highlights for me. Through the different doors and challenges, we get to see him go through so many emotions—love, hate, resentment, atonement, pity, and sadness for the people and characters he encounters. His journey of self-discovery felt meaningful, and you can really see how much he grows along the way.

That said, the last seven episodes didn’t hit the same way as the earlier parts of the drama. The Door 11 quest especially felt a bit bland and wrapped up too quickly compared to the previous doors. It felt like that part of the story could have been explored more instead of ending so abruptly. Because of that, the ending left me wishing the story had been stretched a little longer.

Overall though, I still think this drama is worth watching. If you enjoy mystery-driven stories, character growth, and watching the leads tackle different challenges together, this is definitely a drama worth checking out.
