I really love this plot line. No matter who the actors are, it’s a really nice change to see two pairings instead of one and have best friends fighting together instead of the classical FL vs evil SFL plot
The plot was somehow captivating because of its uniqueness, but the ending was just bad and a typical cliché for every other Japanese drama, which annoyed me incredibly (don’t get me wrong, I’m a big fan of Japanese dramas, but in this case, it just didn’t fit the rest of the show imo)
(Warning, spoilers may follow:) I mean, he's betting his all, but with dyslexia, taking the time you need and deserve is obviously not included in ALL (which, in my opinion, gives the impression that his pride is worth more than their love). And don't even get me started on the pity party that follows (completely ignorant of what he himself is doing to the FL)... I'm sorry, but that made me really angry, especially because a unique drama before the end turned into a typical breakup drama with a short, crappy finale.
In my opinion, it would have been much more satisfying if more time had been spent building their relationship, staying in touch with their family and friends, and solving problems beyond themselves (while supporting EACH OTHER)
I felt the same! So I’m watching the series rn to know what happens to him afterwards
... Wow. That sounds just as depressing as the film. The message seems to be: no happy ending for gay people?! Anyway, thank you very much for your detailed summary!🙏🫶 It saved me a lot of time (because it doesn't sound like the series is worth watching for me).

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that way! I'd be happy if you could let me know afterwards whether there's a better ending for him in the series.
Aaaaaaaahhhhh I just saw the trailer, I’m literally going crazy, how perfect is this??? 😱❤️❤️❤️❤️ The chemistry, the story, the actors….how am I supposed to wait till December 😭😭😭
2. They take him to the woods to bury him. 3. Four ladies dig quite a deep hole to bury him in.4. Solemnly, they…
I just laughed so hard, I love your comment, thank you!
It's really fascinating how writers can stretch reality. I mean, describing dead people (at least they would obviously be dead in real life) as people who lack air is pretty imaginative, lol. 😂
I’m on episode 4 and I’m not getting into it - is there hope for me or those that loved this one, were you…
I would say there is still hope. Personally, I was hooked from the start. But I've read many comments from people who only became hooked later on (for example: in episode 7, the setting changes, which was a decisive turning point for some.)
No matter how many times I watch it, I still bawl my eyes out in the last episodes... (even though I already know…
They are together from the start and are smitten with each other from the start. In my opinion, it's not as frustrating to watch as other dramas, so don't worry, it's definitely worth a try (in episode 30, they get together with a bang (literally 😂), but they kiss long before that episode and a lot happens beforehand).
I'm sorry to say this, but in my opinion, this series is a disappointment. They obviously had a huge budget, so why couldn't they hire better writers? The sets, CGI effects, costumes and actors were clearly high quality, but the plot fell far short of the same standard. It's a real shame (imo)
I'm watching it again right now. It's worth it every time, I still love it very much. Best main couple of all…
No matter how many times I watch it, I still bawl my eyes out in the last episodes... (even though I already know it ends well). I'm so happy about the last episode and the healing it brings.
But I still long to see the baby and the happy ending for Shen Li's parents 🥲.
Loved the ending, but I could totally do with one more ep (watching them being happy and/or jealous and/or having a good time (and/or se** time 😋) together 😜❤️
(By the way, I remember reading the manga a long time ago and they both played their roles on point, that was amazing!! But especially Wada Masanari totally caught my interest with his acting)
Okay, now for my review after watching the entire series:The last two episodes were a bit disappointing for me...…
Apparently, the brain tumor was only added in the series. In the novel, there were other conflicts, but ML was perfectly healthy and not on the verge of death. Honestly, I would have preferred them to stick to the novel; I would have liked that much better. I'm not a big fan of unnecessary overdramatization. 🫤
