I guess you would call it BL adjacent. There is are love confessions but no kissing. I watched both versions and comparing the two it's like bromance (cut) vs BL (uncut). Makes wish there were uncut versions of The Untamed and Word of Honor floating around.
Or even just 1 more episode would help a lot. I get the feeling it'll be another Tonhon with a super rushed ending
I would take anything more they would give us. This is much better storyline than Tonhon. I wish there was an eng translation of the novel b/c i could at least read what we didn't get to watch in the series.
I initially had no interest in watching a 30 hour chess drama but have it a shot based on the reviews. It's was really great. I binge watched over two days. I highly recommend.
