Review Secrets Happened on the Litchi Island
Great points! I was going to write a review myself, but after reading this I feel assured that someone shared my same thoughts. This felt like an amateur imitating Call Me By Your Name (or even ITSAY or Your Name Engraved Herein). This series definitely had me in the first half, however the acting/direction was just missing some of the nuance and finesse required to really pull everything together. It reminds me a lot about how I felt watching the Eighth Sense. Definitely a step in the right direction for a Chinese BL series though.
