Simply MAGICAL!
Super creative plot, I've not seen anything quite like this.I LOVE every part of this drama. It got me hooked right on episode 1!
It's really funny, entertaining and meaningful at same time.
I love how creative the plot is, definitely a gem within the fantasy genre in K-drama. I love how it's not scary too.
I love fantasy but sometimes couldn't stomach the horror portion. I am glad this show is filled with plenty of fantasy yet not scary.
Oh, needless to say, the ML nailed it totally!

It could have been 10/10....
Even then.... ITS WORTH WATCHING FOR SOLO AND GUI!I love their dynamics. It isn't a very typical "top vs bottom" scenario you see in school BL. They both take initiatives to take care of each other, not just one being the "female who needs help or being spoiled"
It's quite evenly spread out between them two, hence I find it really healthy relationship for them, with no toxicity.
Yet, it isn't shallow. They face real life issues that go beyond the typical "homophoic parents story". I wouldn't say much to avoid spoiler, but there are scenes that really are healing and touching, especially one where they are in farm with kids.
A well balanced storyline that has good mixture of school vs work, fantasy vs reality, yet really sweet and cute couple at same time!
Do I even need to mention how cute Solo is?! lol
I'd rated the show 10/10 if this show is only about them! But since, I pretty much skipped the rest of the story (as I find the rest of couples less interesting to follow), I am rating this 8/8.

THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING!
It's lovely watching BL in a rural setting, finally sth that isn't in school setting lol.Lovely to also watch the children in the show, it expands the storyline beyond just romance.
This show has a more mature storyline than the typical school setting BL, yet it still has that sweet, pure, innoncent touch that youth BL brings. I'd say it's a sweet spot, really nice, without unnecessary toxicity or drama
I'd say it'd be nicer if there are more intimate scenes, but even without it, my heart melted enough!
Furthermore, the fact that I actually like BOTH couples in this show, that means NO MORE SKIPPING parts.
Also, its not draggy, short and sweet and worth rewatching even!

Best Duo!!!
I mean, what can go wrong when you put Rain and Kim bum together, Lol.. Boy, both their acting are spectacular!!!I love the story too, it's a refreshing plot. It's funny yet meaningful and deep at the same time. It's new twist to medical drama which sometimes can get too heavy and all. It's also very exciting, especially each time they go to surgery room, it gets my heart beating fast!
I also love the dynamics and combination between the two doctors, how they eventually learn and grow from one another.
It's a definite must-watch!!

Amazing Acting!
I'm surprised by the quality of acting, given that the actors are relatively young. I can feel the emotions that the main lead are feeling, which is amazing, especially since a lot of BL tend to cast new actors where sometimes the acting can be cringey.Its a slow burn and there are times I was so frustrated by the male lead, but as it progresses, it gets really good.
What keeps me going is the acting, really. And boy, it gets really sweet and cute eventually.
I'm glad I give this a chance!

Feel good drama!
I almost MISSED out this gem because of this low rating it gets here, when it turns out to be ONE OF MY FAV NOW!I've learnt to follow my heart and forget about rating. It depends on what ya looking for in a drama.
If you looking for feel good drama to relax, enjoy and warm your heart, this is for you. Is storyline super special? No. But, that doesn't make this drama less ordinary!
I've seen toxic drama with higher rating than this! This drama might be simple but it is also its purity and innocence that made it so cute to watch!
Sometimes, a simple, cute, relaxing drama that makes you smile from ear to ear, laugh from your belly and warm your heart is what we need. This is exactly what this drama makes me feel and I hope you would enjoy the sunshine and sweetness this drama has for you too :)

10/10 for the couple!
Oh my god, Tongrak Mahasamut is my new favorite couple now! Their chemistry is so chemistry-ing, I love them from the moment they meet! I really love the island episodes until they change to BKK.What I don't like:
- The family drama is unnecessarily dramatic. It feels like watching Lakorn when I'm here for the BOYS LOVE part, literally
- Side GL storyline is quite frustrating to watch as it's wishy washy
- I mainly skipped those parts above
What I like
-Couple chemistry, island setting, and ending
I love how they make a reference of meaning of number 0f 8 towards the end. Boy, I didn't expect it to get emotional but it's so beautifully touching towards the end.
While it's dramatic, but at least the situation is resolved. I like how Tongrak actually sees how he has been deceived by his father and he reunited with his mother- putting a solution to the messy family dynamic. This is important, otherwise we just end up with dramatic show for sake of drama.
While the couple story doesn't start as what most would call "healthy", it definitely ends up healthy which is again, important point. In fact, Rak story is very relatable and common IRL- people who shut down their heart but Mame did beautiful job in breaking down why and putting a solution to it. Very well done in wrapping up all these- probably one of her best story- I can see the storyline matures too
What I super like
The super touching and beautiful last episode as well as all our NC scenes!
Our boys KNOW how to kiss and eat each other up. One of the best NC in BLs- one that's hot yet you can feel the love- I love it. It's not a trashy kind of NC, it's just 2 men truly loving and going crazy over each other
I'm gonna miss the couple already!!!

I need more of JJ & Tor!
The acting is SOOOO good, especially Tor! I love how everything is wrapped up in 8 episodes= clean and sweet cut.Each episode keeps you wanting for more, and boy- when that kiss finally arrived- im like YESS!
It tackles the topic of euthanasia in a really diverse way- including explaining the legal side, moral side, and even talking about consent, etc. It's amazing to see BL starting to touch on deeper topics beyond just 2 men kissing each other (although i love watching that lol)
I especially love the ending as to how Wansa held Doctor's hand and then dropped the Hydrangea which represents "forgiveness"- just WOW! Got me crying so badly- it's just so beautiful
Side note, Tor looked so much like Namkoong Min somehow, especially the eyes expression. I think it's probably the similarity in character they have played before than the actual actor looking alike
Anyway, this BL is just so FKING GOOOOOODDDD- I'd totally up for more collab from this duo again!

Don't be fooled!
I think some people thought this show is all about sex because of the title, but it's way more than that. I mean, yes there are NC scenes but it's deeper than thatSome of the scenes are extremely touching, some are really funny, some are simply lighthearted. It's as the show describes, "No label, no tag, just love is the key spirit in this show."
I really love how there's a straight, gay, lesbian in the show- what a diverse representation. Kudos to the team in charge of Mama's costume. I love each one of them- so sassy! I also love the creative name of the cocktails and how pretty they look
I'm impressed by the quality of this Taiwan drama- especially how they're delivering positive messages in such a funny and creative way. It has amazing lesson on self-love and touches on issues around LGBTQ in a very tasteful manner.
I love the character development of the casts, especially Leslie. Their friendship gives off Sex in the City vibe.
S2? Yes please!

SO Sultry-ly good!
It gets more exciting after each episode- making me finish this in one day! I love the concept that the 4 minutes are based on. It's very interesting and meaningful at same time.What I'm impressed is how well executed this is. I was initially worried that I may get confused because of the storyline but it actually is very clear. There are lots of details being shown that helps you connect the dots very easily as long as you follow through each episode closely. It's seriously really good.
The plot twist are amazing! The acting are also very good- not cringey at all. I especially love Jes and Bible here. I also love Korn and Tonkla, despite the ending
NCs are SOOO goood- Be On Cloud really knows what it's doing! Now, what I like is how the NCs are a bonus and not the selling point. We've seen lots of BL that just gave you NC with crap story, this is NOT one of those
This is seriously so high quality on all levels. 8 episodes are perfect, anything more would be draggy, althou I'll totally take a special episode to watch more Jes and Bible!

I'm hooked and I want more!
Wow, I've never watched a BL like this one and I loved the plot so much!!!I mean, I get to enjoy the best of both world: the investigation of crime in real life and the investigation of past lives in dream life. Not to mention how it involves, dragon element, which is not commonly seen in BL.
Omg, this is like SO good that I'm so grateful that this is produced and I want more BL like this please!
It has such a refreshing plot, especially if you've watched so many BLs like me, there are just too many repetitive plot that you'll find this one a gem!
I love the story, the CGI and the flashbacks in last episode is best flashback in century! The timing that they paused the scene, and introduce flashback with the right music, it hits home!
It really keeps me on the edge- I am SO thrilled by it. Plus, the NCs are really romantic and sensual- I love it (and want more lol)
Overall, it's really enjoyable. If you find episode 1 hard to get by, you can skip bits of it, and once you get to a point where they start talking about the dragon, boy, you can't stop watching!!!

What a beautiful ending!
I put off this show for a long time as I wasn't ready for a tear-jerker, but I'm glad I finally took the courage to watch this.I'm really satisfied with the ending, it isn't like what I imagined at all!
If you're worried about this show being heavy or depressing, you've got nothing to worry!!
Of course, there are moments where I cried my eyes out, but there are also many moments where I feel so inspired and touched. It actually is heartwarming in it own ways and teaches us so many life lessons, including meaning of life, family values, life and death, and many more
Jdrama did it again: to be able to capture so much depth while delivering such an entertaining show at same time!

Don't judge it by its poster!
I almost skipped this because of the poster that looks like it comes from 1990s LOLI was initially worried that it'd be depressing or heavy, but it turned out to be more lighthearted than I imagined. Don't get me wrong, it is still sad at lot of parts, but it has lots of funny cute loving moments too. It evens out, I'd say.
It also has depth, like it's meaningful with life lessons while being romantic at same time. It also makes us think of the importance of cherishing little moments in life, not to wait until tomorrow as there might not be another chance, and so on.
Most importantly, the ending is satisfactory. I almost got worried for nothing. I mean, how can they break up?! That 3 years apart must have been challenging, although looking back, I do agree it makes them independent and become a better partner for each other.
I really love and miss their sweet couple moments already, especially that fish tank moments where Mhok look at Day across the glass tank!
I really want to see Mhok an Day in a special episode or sth!

Truly stands out from the rest!
What caught my attention is the trauma cleaning job. At 1st, I thought it's a "made-up" job, only to find out it's real. That fascinates me even moreThanks to this show, I get to learn about such a profound and meaningful job that's often overlooked. In this show, the trauma cleaners really did amazing job in uncovering the story of the deceased, and making sure any messages are passed on to loved ones.
What makes this show even more interesting is that the ML also happen to have Asperger, hence opening up a new dimension of learning for us to understand more about people with Asperger, how they behave and why they act a certain way.
Combination of Asperger + Trauma Cleaning makes thsi show stand out.
I cried so much in this show that I feel it helped me process and heal the grief that I had myself.
This is one of the best show Lee Jee Hoon is in as well. His character adds more flavor and excitement to this show too.
Overall, this has great storyline, execution, messages, lessons and acting! Highly recommended
