I was so mad at the ending of episode 15, I was going to rate it a 1. If they would have pulled some BS like that, I would have been upset. But within 30 seconds of episode 16, it went back up to a 8.5. lol.

I cannot speak for the majority, but I watch for entertainment. If at the end of a drama I am laughing, crying, scared, etc., I can be satisfied. I can understand wanting to watch a drama with a happy ending and asking about it (because I do too), but to be emotionally or physically disturbed by the ending of a drama because it's not happy is kind of dumb. Life is pretty short, if your reality is sad, focus your time and energy on fixing it instead of trying to escape to another.

Yes and yes. Romance is not the focus. even though it's listed as a romance genre. And you can always tell by the comments if there is a happy ending or not; people on mdl are not satisfied unless the ending is in a pretty package wrapped in a bow.

Exactly. Everyone's storyline in the drama is basically open with no closure.

This one has plenty of drama and action in it. My only complaint would be the last episode. It definitely seemed rushed af, and ended predictably. Overall it's a good drama and worth a binge.

Yes, I think that smile meant he was not into it, but instead doing it to make Sung Woo happy so he wouldn't get kicked out of the house. It seemed he was a grown man, now sleeping with a high school boy. I am with you...shookith from the dysfunction in that family.

It's not a lot by itself, but when multiple subbers have their own paid accounts, then Gagaoolala has paid account, then Netflix paid account, then Viki paid account, Vimeo paid account, etc. then not to much to ask becomes a lot to ask. It's not wrong getting paid for your work and everyone definitely should, but I am just saying this is why people go to free sites.

I agree with you. I am not sure why we should have low expectations or high expectations. We watch a drama and make a personal judgement on what we see. The network has put out a lot of quality dramas and movies, but because it's BL we should have low expectations :-/ To me, this is typical Japanese BL. I thought it was okay.

Yup. This could have been a top notch drama (a solid 9) with a good producer. The story, the actors, the quality effects. It should have been 15 to 20 40 minute episodes.

If you fwd through like 70% of each episode, you can still get the full story and have missed nothing. It's full of useless dialog that offers nothing to the story or anything. I mean sometimes the dialog is so drawn out it doesn't even add to character development; it's talking for the sake of talking. They will extend a scene of walking in the woods or eating a meal for 5 minutes with no sound, just the actors making happy, confused, or scared faces and you think something is going to happen, and nothing. I enjoy long dramas and have watched quite a few, but none, have been so unnecessarily drawn out like this one.

Oh okay. That I can understand, I didn't know that or that it was a web drama. I know people on here like to really follow foreign media and read what actors, networks, and production companies say, so usually I can understand better if I write a comment.

Yes, many people do. We pay for Netflix, Gagaoolala, Viki, YouTube Premium, etc. and don't just steal all the content from streaming sites. It's not a a crime to discuss things in comment sections.

That would be awesome to be able to watch one full hour at once. I look forward to that day.

They do, but they always do these weird mini episodes. I don't know why they have to do that. At least do standard 30 min episode.

That is the issue we both are talking about. The scene where they are talking the most, it's in Thai, and neither of us can understand.

I think maybe the people commenting are really young. I changed my major in college 3 times. And if you think you won't fall head over heals your first time, you're crazy. It's highly unlikely you will be with your first high school love throughout college. This series is a very accurate representation of high school coming-out, first relationships, and maturing and learning in college to become the person you will be. Even the preview for next week appears as though they have grown and matured even more and, being in a similar career field, will meet again with the possibility of another spark between them (you will not forget your first love). The accurate storyline and good acting makes this series a gem.

I agree with everything you said. It was a nice drama because of the family dynamic they were showing. I wouldn't say the acting or story was a 9, but the relationship they tried to show between brothers, then between uncle and nephew was good and nice. I also like to cry too; afterwards it's always like I feel some kind of weight was removed from inside. I sometimes search YouTube for sad videos, after I watch them and cry, I feel more relaxed. Weird I know.

you should start making your comments with links to the video as spoilers, so the links don't get deleted. this is really true with links to YouTube videos though.

50 to 100 commercials vs 1. lol.
