Eye contact- a catastrophe in slow motion

I saw the low ratings but thought I’d still give it a try. Unfortunately, the whole series turned out to be a mess.

- It was packed with clichés: popular male lead–nerdy male lead, hate-to-love, love triangle, rich kid pretending to be poor, drunk sex leading to early love or a first kiss between the male leads—everything was conveniently slotted in with no real build-up.

- The violence and rape/confinement scenes were not only disturbing but also frustratingly glossed over, without being properly addressed or given the gravity they deserved.

- The relationship between the first main lead couple was toxic at best. Sun constantly manipulated his way out of situations, including cheating, by falling ill and guilt-tripping his partner—major deal breaker.

- The high school couple felt like unnecessary filler. Their story had no proper closure, and the dark "romance" added for the unexpected third pair was just appalling.

- And to top it all off—they ended the whole thing on a cliffhanger. Possibly the worst kind of ending for a show this chaotic.


What I can commend, even if just a little:

- The GL couple were kinda cute.
- The visuals were nice.
- The cast did well acting out their roles—even if the script didn’t support them.


Conclusion:
Watch at your own risk.

I want more ?

Another Japanese BL showing why Japanese BL Series are one of the best . They always exhibit this charm I can't get from other BL industries. Every episode of Taikan Yoho got me wanting more ,so much so that I didn't want it to end . A nice plot with awesome actors portraying each characters .
Understanding the main leads and the abnormal (so close to being toxic) relationship between them was nice, as the plot unraveled, flashbacks and both leads POV helped to better understand the characters, Till the end of the series the lack of communication wasn't completely ridden off but I'm glad that it wasn't so frustrating, they had a little 'unravelling the heart' scene at the last episode 😳.
As the series progress, viewers will better understand the dynamic relationship between the couple. Hot Scenes, even hotter main leads, I found Yok 's frustrations endearing , Segasaki 's jealousy even more so .
I personally feel like fans of My Beautiful Man will have a blast with this, although not as toxic. Another perfectly messed up relationship is brought to our screen . Not so secretly hoping for an extension in form of season 2 or a movie 😉, will love to see more of Segasaki and Yok.
