My most favourite KBL ~
Now this is by far, the best KBL I've ever watched.
Not because it has the best story, nor because it's somehow without flaws.
But because this the most natural BL I've ever seen.
Let me break this down...
First: Acting...
The two leads were very natural, no weird pauses between scenes, no unnecessary long shots of silence or stares for so long, not a single moment of boredom.
Vampire concept didn't feel cringe at all, ML didn't have a weird teeth baring, nor have unnatural funny fangs, instead i could see the struggle in his eyes naturally and without any second hand embarrassment 😂 my favourite scenes are the one when he faced blood, I believed he was a real vamp.
Chemistry was nice, for a low budget short BL they picked good actors and they did a great job, I can see potential for them to grow and be lead actors for proper dramas with proper script.
Second: story...
While the whole idea is repetitive and the whole hate-to-love genre is not original at all, with vampires falling for their preys plot, it's quite nice.
I love everything about vamps and gothic horror characters, so I watch anything related to it even while knowing it'd be bad, but this was light and relaxing to watch, also hats off for the director whoever he/she is, because this was perfectly put together.
If you like simple stories that doesn't make you use your brains that much and is ok with the concept just go watch this right now because it's this good.
Third: characters..
They are all very nice and lovely, not a single bad character and none of the actors was bad in his role, side characters were cute and did great.
Now I have to mention the flaws too because this isn't a perfect drama despite giving it a very high rate
1-Plot is very lame, now I know I just said I loved it but there is literally nothing going on which can be 2 edged sword, so it need a specific mood or for specific people who want to watch something light, if not you won't enjoy it.
2- story not fleshed out well, I believe these is more to show but they just showed us the romance, what is the characters background? How are they vamps? Are they brothers? What about the synthetic blood thing? ... Too many things that was skipped.
3- end was abrupt, nothing about the future of the two leads, they got together and what? How will the vamp survive? Did the blood thing work? How will they manage?
4- why everyone has to be gay in BL? Now this is in all BLs lol and it's quite stupid question, I know, but I sometimes miss seeing normal couples in BLs, instead it's like if it's a BL then It's gay people in gay world, having straight people here would be more natural, believe me~
Long story short ... For a light romcom BL this is perfect, for a proper drama this lacks a lot, but compared to other BLs,, this is easily one of the best~~
