Rest in peace, darling. You suffered a lot.

To me it was a heartwarming and interesting exploration of two soul-searching and imperfect Asian guys with different upbringing trying to reach out to each other and temporarily failing because they both have a lot to learn, grow, mature and heal. It was nicely shot, well-acted and reasonably brightly written for all that, conveying some important messages and giving some interesting aspects of different cultural backgrounds. There were things obviously and inevitably rushed, and I am quite sure that is due to the limited budget of the production team. Tastes are different and each to their own, but in general kisses, skinship and immaculately happy fairy tale ending are all most BL fans care about, and this show delivers none of those. And I do have a safe bet that most of those trashing it are pissed for those reasons.

From time to time I return to MDL to double-check whether the comment section has grown up and no, they never do.

Both seasons of His Man are far more superficial and the participants are far less open than they were in this one. As much as I like that Korean dating show, both seasons are pale shadows of this one despite their much higher budget.

The first couple was totally predictable after episode 7. The second took even me by surprise, from both sides.

Edgy, magnetic, tightly written 2 character chamber piece with a cleverly constructed narrative filled with suspense and surprises. Stunning performances from Romnick and Elijah. Certainly not for the less complicated minds.

“Homophobic” 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️. I should have ignored you indeed.

It never ceases to amaze me to what extent some viewers require spoonfeeding by characters to speak up their emotions just because they are too dense to read from them.

Joshua is clearly attracted to Andre and his sarcasm is clearly a defence mechanism as he was obviously hurt and heartbroken in his previous relationship. If that is not clear for you after 4 episodes then you are a lost cause. Sorry not sorry.

That is the short film from 2017, not this one

Asian folks generally recognize each other's race/nationality without telling.

The trailer looked promising and the first episode did not disappoint. Witty and engaging, with brisk writing and playing, as well as two interesting personalities to contrast via bickering dialogue.

The overwhelmingly immature teenagers of MDL cannot handle adult dramas like this. If cheating is also involved they spectacularly lose their shit and rage.

The most possibly beautiful bittwersweet ending to a wonderful little series, full of heart. Thank you for the smiles and the tears, Regal Entertainment, Philippines.

Unusually downbeat and different attempt. Reasonably intriguing and with better characterizations and performances than what I expected.

1. It is not Chinese, it is Taiwanese.
2. There is no kiss because dramaturgically it is absolutely not justified ffs.

Another one who probably uses gas spray when someone in the street asks what the time is.

Next time I put explanation there for your type.

This is now slowly but surely becoming an emotional, edgy and thought-provoking character drama with interesting main characters, both played very well.

Just like Happy Merry Ending, this was a cute, average, mildly enjoyable, rather perfunctory, likeable romance, but I had a look at some of the reviews. Good grief, I wonder how some people get on with their lives and do their grocery without being felt they are ‘abused’. This world has gone totally crazy.
