It’s a story about two gay men, their son, and how they navigate their private married life while slowly being embraced by the warmth and love of the people around them. I may be late to watching this show, but I’m thankful to have seen another side of Mike Lin’s beautiful acting. He is so handsome!

One major scene filmed during an actual Taiwan Pride parade made the story feel even more authentic. I also loved how the series consistently represented rainbows and their significance in every episode. It was especially heartwarming to see how they explained to Kai Kai why he doesn’t have a mother.

Gratefully, we also got to see how Jerry’s parents eventually accepted him for who he is, along with the people he cherishes, after episodes filled with fear and guilt. Overall, the drama highlights several important issues surrounding the gay community. Having a platform that both educates and delivers an uplifting story to the masses is truly commendable.

The only thing that made me sad was the way the season ended. The revelation that Damian had a child with his ex-girlfriend and kept it from Jerry all those years was painful to watch. I honestly felt betrayed on Jerry’s behalf.
