One of the most clichéd dramas ever lol I was just watching it and predicting what's going to happen, because this literally has no story, just a few cliché romance moments between the leads I didn't find the ML that handsome tbh so my eyes didn't pop out when I saw him on screen, the acting is mediocre but to be fair there is nothing to act really, they were just saying a few super cheesy lines and they did that fine lol I skimmed through the second half of it -i think from ep6 on- because everything was pretty funny for me.
I'm not completely saying that this is bad, I needed some cheesy and light drama to watch so I picked it up, when I first started it about a month ago or so I couldn't go past the first ep, so it just depends on what you want really, if you need ideal 2000s romance drama where the FL trip over air and fall on the ML lap and he say something extremely cheesy then this drama is for you, if you want to watch any type of drama with acting, just skip this one xD
This one is a big NO, this literally has everything I hate in BL dramas, the story is unrealistic and the only good thing about it that stopped me from dropping it was that they were at high school, so their age is suitable for all the stupid things about the story. I don't really buy the "I'm only gay for one person" thing and turning straight to gay is really is unrealistic and stupid, it wasn't even done well here, Xigu obviously was skeptical about their relationship and I hate that he was pushed by Haoting. Also Xigu presence could easily be discarded he didn't do much at all, Haoting did everything he annoyed him, he fell in love, approached him, kinda forced him to love and be with him, and Xigu mostly was studying and maybe sick most of the time. I know I'm complaining a lot but all the comments are praising it and just hate the end while I think everything thing about this was annoying really.
Just one last thing!!!! Being nice to someone doesn't make them fall in love with you, this is pure idiocy, and if a friend or just a nice person who is the same gender as you confess to you while you are straight -and I'm talking from experience- you won't suddenly feel like "oh, why don't I turn gay" at most you'd feel grateful and maybe a little apologetic, you would not change your preference with a snap of a finger, if you are gay, you are gay and if you are straight, you are straight. Period.
I kinda like Taiwanese dramas, but I normally don't watch longs dramas -anything more than 16ep with over 1hour is considered long to me because that's the standard Kdramas length that I'm used to watch- I'm more of a 10ep maximum person, I have seen this story in many many dramas and sadly I didn't like them much no matter how good they were, and I didn't know any of the actors -except for Marcus- so let's say I was a bit skeptical about starting this. BE THAT AS IT MAY, I loooooooved this drama every single minute of it, Vivian is AMAZING!!!!!! SHE IS BRILLIANT HERE!!!! I fell in love with her character and acting xD she was so good as Xiaoen, and AoRan's facial expressions to whatever she did was so funny. I love how unpredictable she was, I mean the story is predictable but the flow of the story was different, and XiaoEn was a great FL character, I loved AoRan and QingFeng reactions to her bubbly and weird personality, I even had some moments when I actually laughed loud while watching because of her. I skipped most of the real world scenes, I think I skipped all of it. God knows what was happening I didn't even know what his brother/sister did and who is bad really xD I didn't give a damn about it, Vivian got all my attention. I have to admit that I wanted it to be finished by ep14 or so, but not because I was bored, I was more in a hurry to see how will they end it, they played the end safe. Highly highly recommended for a rom-com lover.
I had the same feelings when I first started it, the police officer behaviour at first was over the top a little…
Yea, actually they are the reason I continued the series, I finished it now - skimmed through the last 5eps or so- I wasn't a fan of the main couple tbh but overall it wasn't terrible, I've seen worse.
I was extremely excited about this drama because of the story mainly, sadly when I started it my excitement was lost, but I don't regret watching this at all, I enjoyed it a lot, but mostly for different reasons. I have to say I LOVE Jack -and I mean the character- he always has a smiley face whatever the situation and he didn't look creepy doing that, his acting lacked in some scenes but I love him with Lian, they were so cute together and Lian's innocence was so cute, though not everyone is able to pull off the "innocent guy" behaviour well but Lian was good enough. I didn't really like how the story went at the last third of the drama, and I didn't like the 2ML much either lol sorry to say that xD and that freakin tuft of hair that the ML has that defied the rest of his hair, I kept touching the screen hoping that I'd magically lay it down xD overall, they were good together but in the dramatic turn of events it was awkward a little to watch their acting, it was mediocre and the story required too much. It wasn't terrible as I may sound, but maybe because it wasn't what I expected I felt at loss.
im only on episode but one thing is bothering me a lot.... the acting... why is it so hard to come by a bl with…
I had the same feelings when I first started it, the police officer behaviour at first was over the top a little but it gets better and less cheesy -except for a few cringe moments of course, no BL is empty of those lol- I'm half way through it and except for Tangyi's stone face it's good so far.
I love the bickering between Hyundo and Eunso -and sometimes with Yeongjoo- and that's mostly why I'm planning to continue this, I have no big interest in the main story and secrets between the 2 families so I'm putting this on hold because it's hard for me to binge-watch 50ep while I am only interested in about 20mins of the 1 hour ep.
I think I'm the only one who didn't like this xD. The acting wasn't that good, there are a lot of scenes where I thought the acting is really really awkward and bad, and I see no chemistry between the 2MLs at all, friends maybe but I couldn't feel any love there. The story also has a few odd moments, like at the beginning who let 2 stranger to his house, and then ask one of them to be a nanny, really?? I didn't see a fantasy tag here. Also I'm really sorry to say this and I know this is a BL drama, but I can't really digest the idea of a totally straight man with a kid to fall in love with a guy, I mean why!? He literally did not do anything to make him fall in love with him, except for cooking and taking care of his daughter, and I don't think it's enough to fall in love, because then every nanny in the world would become a secret lover or a step-mother. It's not easy for gay people to be straight then why make it easy for straight people to be gay. You are what you are, you don't change, Period.
This was intense, I loved this series a lot, it presented an idea of losing your youth suddenly and unexpectedly found out that adult life isn't all roses. I love how the series explore every dramatic side of this idea and cross the threshold for every character affected by the 25 years lost, it went a little overdramatic at the end but I can see why they did this. I recommend it for the acting and the story, if you don't mind melodrama
This was long and slow, and so will be my review so buckle up!
I liked the story of youth where everything is confusing and you don't know what to do with your life that is dominated by your parents -that was the case here so I'll only mention that- and how as a young person you try to break out from your shell and be free to dream and be whatever you want... Ok, Lovely, I like that and it was good. Romance-wise this was so messed up, I wish they only sticked to their life problems because what the fuck !? This is either got really shortened to skip some really important emotional changes or it's just badly written and I can't decide since I have not read the manga. Also all parents here are messed up, they are so controlling and selfish. I like the story and I didn't mind the pace but the romance is bad.
This part is a spoiler, excuse my language and my overreacting, I'm just in a bad place now lol
Again and again I'm going to say, if two people got remarried, their children from the former partner are not real siblings, NOT FREAKING SIBLINGS, this isn't how fucking biology works, and I'm not a fan of step siblings love myself but the way they represent it here is just too overdramatic for god's sake!!! The mother in a scene literally jumped into the boy's room because she heard a girl's voice and thought it's her daughter inside!? Really!!!?????? If they are oh so siblings what is wrong is talking in a room???? They are the same age, in the same school, and were practically friends before the marriage!? What... How to explain this scene! For the love of God, someone tells me what was that for!? What really pissed me off was that they had feelings for each other BEFORE the parents but because of them they could not even admit their feelings for each other and moved on, and after all this shit you got a divorce!? YOU GOT A FUCKING DIVORCE!!!!????? Like "sorry dears, c'est la vie, adults stuff" Good lord in heaven, give me strength!!!! I wanted them to end up together just to fuck with the mum really, I didn't care much who loves who but I really wanted to piss her off.
The title says it all, this is not a normal love story, when obsession is involved get ready for some nasty shit! And forced sexual acts are part of the bargain because obsessed person would naturally be aggressive and mentally unstable. And that's probably why I can't complain about the ML here. The series is short, 4ep and like the one before it was kept simple so there is no place to explain much or build up characters, and putting that in mind I kinda like this one because the acting was not bad, they actually kissed like two normal people - despite the fact that it wasn't normal lol but you get what I mean- it wasn't awkward so overall this was a success.
I love how light and quick these web dramas are, no unnecessary problems and no complications. Except for one thing, it didn't really explain why A he hesitated at the beginning but everything worked out for good so, it doesn't matter.
Love the trailer, probably gonna watch it now, just a thought, why not cast Aaron Yan for this?
You know that this is a weird request, right!? lol Being gay in real life doesn't mean he should act in the gay adaptation of his past dramas, don't you think!?
I didn't find the ML that handsome tbh so my eyes didn't pop out when I saw him on screen, the acting is mediocre but to be fair there is nothing to act really, they were just saying a few super cheesy lines and they did that fine lol

I like it xD
It wasn't that good but it wasn't terrible either.
Watch it or skip it, you won't miss much.

Good lord in heaven, give me strength!!!! I wanted them to end up together just to fuck with the mum really, I didn't care much who loves who but I really wanted to piss her off.
I'll go watch the next 15ep once I'm done with the drama I'm watching and then I'd be half way through it.
Usually, I do not get persuaded easily but you took the time and effort to convince me so...xD
And that's probably why I can't complain about the ML here.
