Best kdrama, definitely worth the hype
This is the best Asian series I've ever watched, and I don't think I'll ever be the same đI don't even know where to start. The storyâit was so engaging, unique, and beautiful. Watching the story of Im Sol and Sun Jae unfold was the best experience ever. Their story is so tragic yet so beautiful, and the second chance they got was incredibly satisfying to watch. I'll love them forever.
I adore the balance of comedy and tragedy in this seriesâit has it all: very funny moments and deeply emotional ones. Thanks to this balance, you don't feel too overwhelmed or underwhelmed while watching.
And then the acting!! The main actors were absolutely brilliant in their roles. The characters they played were so well written. The raw emotions they portrayed will stay with me for a long time. I swear this series was so perfect that I don't even have the words to express how much I loved it. It destroyed me emotionally and then healed me again. I cried so many times.
I loved Sun Jae's characterâhe's literally such a simp and a loser, but he treats Sol so well. They're truly soulmates. I also adore the themes of destiny and fate that this show explores. As viewers, we constantly wonder if Sun Jae's destiny is to die over and over again just to save Sol. But luckily, they got the happy ending they deserved â„ïž.
The soundtrack was also perfect!! This is simply the best K-drama you'll find out there. And I can't believe it was my first one... I'll never find anything as great as this again.

Funny and romantic - best BL I've watched
Oh my god this series>>>>>It's definitely my favourite (and first) BL of all time. Like, there's nothing better out there.
First of all, the storyline was very solid and very interesting. I just kept watching and was very engaged in the story and in which direction it would go. This series explores very interesting themes, for example, criticism of the rich and life in poor districts.
The characters were very well made and well developed. Especially the main characters were very likeable and consistent. Actors who played the main roles, Yin and War, were absolutely amazing. Especially in the emotional scenes!!
Now let's get to the best part - the main couple. Their chemistry is fucking unmatched. I have never ever seen something like this before - these actors were made to play lovers. I'm sure they weren't just acting in some scenes...
I literally still think about Jack and Joker, their relationship was everything - the slowburn, the tension, the angst???
Unfortunately I do have some criticism for the show, although most of the problems exist due to low budget. The goofy sound effects were unnecessary. The free, non copyright music, was...well it was. If they had higher budget they would made the fuck out of this show. But honestly, the writing compensates for technical and editing problems.
Even though some scenes were very cringe...but I forgive them.
Also, the product placement was so fucking funny đđ Garnier cream was everywhere.
Overall, this series is awesome. It has everything you need in a love story and the best part (to me) was that the romance isn't the main focus of the show, which makes it more special to watch. It's not perfect, but I give it 5 stars because I have free will and I had the best time ever watching this show. If you won't give this a try, you're definitely missing out!!
