Didn’t Expect to Like It — But I Did
This is only my second time watching a BL drama. The first one I ever saw was the Thai drama Love in the Air, which I actually enjoyed quite a bit. So when this one popped up on my Viki feed under new releases, I decided to give it a look.
At first, I wasn’t too interested. The whole alpha, omega, beta, and enigma thing honestly confused me—I didn’t really understand it and thought it might be too strange for my taste. But after checking kisskh and seeing all the positive reviews (and some comments saying the two secondary male characters deserved more screen time), I decided to give it a shot.
It took me two days to finish, and while the beginning was a bit unclear—especially regarding the second male lead’s character—I stuck with it. By episode 9, things really started heating up between the two main leads, and I was hooked.
Hua Yong’s love for Sheng Shao felt real and determined, almost like soulmates who just couldn’t give up on each other. Even though Hua Yong made mistakes and went about things the wrong way at times, his feelings were genuine. He always assumed Sheng Shao was running off with other omegas whenever he went into his rutting stage, but that wasn’t true. Hua Yong was actually Sheng Shao’s first, and his desire to mark him came not only from love but also from wanting to save him from the poison in his body.
Their relationship went through a lot of lies and misunderstandings, especially due to Hua Yong’s desperation to keep Sheng Shao close—but in the end, they found their way back to each other and became a happy family.
As for the other two male characters, their story was full of missed chances and unspoken feelings. I really wish the show had explored their relationship more because there was so much emotional depth left untapped. Their ending, to me, felt bittersweet—good for the main couple, but a little sad for the side pair.
All in all, I’m glad I watched it. The alpha-omega world still feels a little odd to me, but without it, the story wouldn’t have had the same spark or intensity.
