I just saw your comment and tbh I must totally agree. I haven’t rewatched the series so I kinda forgot what it was about, and I doubt it’s ever getting a sequel. I thought the ending just kinda came unexpected..? (I tbh was just rooting for something to happen). And because it was so boring at the end, I ended up liking the sudden suspense and ‘twist’, while ignoring how underwhelming it actually was lol.

Not Me was my second bl series after 2gether and it raised my bars a lot. Now I rewatched it just a few days ago and I noticed the flaws a lot more (it’s been a long time since the first watch) however I still stand by the fact that this is such a great show. I fully agree with your review, you put things into words that I couldn’t write down myself. I loved how naturally and realistic this show was. I absolutely loved the start, sadly I missed a proper ending, but now I understand why the ending is what it is and I can accept it more now. Anyways your review is perfectly explained, I have nothing else to add.

I fully agree with you! Personally about the doppelgänger, it seems like XHT was tutoring this boy. And most likely only tutored him because he looked so much like YSG. However I was really confused for like half of the episode because I also thought it was YSG with a different hairstyle, especially since every actor suddenly changed hairstyles so it could’ve been possible. I personally really enjoyed this show because it used those real life elements and it wasn’t THAT cliche as with some other bl dramas. I just hate the ending, it felt rushed and felt like they skipped major plot scenes. Like killing of YSG (what the fck?) but not even giving us the context we need. Not giving us a shot of how everyone reacted when YSG died, and especially the time skip?? I hate time skips, especially if they are very suddenly and NOT necessary for the main plot. Since by adding the time skip, all they gave us was a depressed, helpless and broken-hearted XHT.
