well, they tried.
My Hero: 5/10
I love Aaron Lai and that's mostly why I stayed, ngl. The plot was a bit odd for a BL with the main lead romancing her former lover and making him fall for his classmate. But ~spoilers, when she decides to let classmate Gu Si Ren re-inhabit his own body... that really confused me? Because that's not who Mai Ying Xiong (Aaron Lai) fell in love with right? Unless I'm missing something lol. I also was less than convinced by the chemistry between the two which didn't help. But it was interesting in it's own right. Lin Da Her stole the show with his grim reaper character.
Stay Away From Me: 4/10
I'm honestly not a huge fan of the step-brothers to lovers trope, so that already has me biased against it. It was decent plot-wise. I similarly thought that the main two characters didn't have great chemistry but it had a satisfactory ending.
Obsessed: 2/10
These two actors had the best chemistry out of all three couples but at what cost? Consent. Consent was the cost. I was not into the ending -- he (Jiang Jing Teng / Bernard He) decided to fake get engaged to protect his lover Shao Yi Chen (Teddy Ren) but not bother telling him about it? Why would you ever think that's a good idea? LOL. But this episode was the most interesting of the series, so do with that information what you will.
