Highly overrated
Let me start by saying that this is a very good drama, and I don't mean that it's a bad drama by saying it's overrated... But 8.6/10 ... A big no, a good drama yes, but doesn't deserves all that, it has big flaws and many cliché moments, so it's a 7 at best imo.
I'm also not judging others opinions if they really like it, I'm only talking personally.
I can state what I like about this drama but I guess saying what's wrong with it is more meaningful since everyone is generally praising it.
I'll begin with the story, it's a very simple story, highlighted by the great acting and impeccable chemistry between the leads, also the whole cast in so good looking specially the women here, everyone is really beautiful and easy on the eye~
But I can't understand for the life of me the cliché way of ending it .. the change of heart some characters had, the small and public community where everyone is cool about being gay, in early 60s for god's sake, and the easy acceptance from old people like it's ok my son, if it's your happiness then go for it! Seriously?? I could also mention the conspiracies thing but this is a lakorn so let's be realistic.
Now the pace of the story is really slow, a very slow burn romance which is beautiful, but also boring as some point, with many obstacles they naturally have to face, so after a while I'm just watching out of loyalty just to get over with it.
Chemistry is impeccable as I said so nothing to say but praises here.
I won't go into details but some side characters are just too much, to explain, this is more a lakorn than a BL. IYKYK ~
I won't say more because I'm generally too lazy now and because it doesn't deserve to be criticized that much ~
So generally, except for the cliché things and the way the story went 180 degrees to reach a closure, every thing else is great, like I said it's a very good drama, just I saw much better IMO this doesn't deserve that high rate, however I would recommend it ~
