I have been putting off watching this because I've heard so many people claim this is the best BL of 2023 - so…
it’s amazing! I love it so so much. Everything about it is just beautiful from how it’s shot to the depth of characters! I’m only on episode 4 and I know the second half gets a lot sadder and darker and just less cute, I’m not sure I’m ready!
I have been putting off watching this because I've heard so many people claim this is the best BL of 2023 - so I have wanted to save it and now is the time I am about to start watching it and I am so excited!
my expectations were so so high, but the first episode completely exceeded them. Personally I feel no other country does BL characters quite as well as Japan - the depth, layers, uniqueness and care all their characters overflow with is the main reason I love jdramas. And wow these 2 leads are so different to what I expected and what I’ve seen before - especially in a school setting, but I already love them - they have fantastic chemistry and then pair that with the incredible location. I know I’m going to love this so much - it’s a crime this is only 5 episodes!
oh this is just way too adorable!!! I love it and I love them so much! I can’t wait for more - it’s such a huge shame that they haven’t put this on an international platform- it really deserves one!
In all honesty I do think I slightly prefer season 1 and that's purely because of the storyline, but that being said these are some of my all time favourite BL characters and I have cherished every single scene with them in season 2. Every episode of this drama feels like a warm hug and I have loved learning more about these beautiful characters this season. So personally I don't think this 100% lives up to season 1's greatness, but it definitely still embodies all the magic, warmth, care and love of the first season. I'm so grateful we got a second season and I am going to miss all these characters so so much - they will always be very special to me!
that trailer was BEAUTIFUL! I had no idea what to expect for this, but it’s shot so beautifully, the chemistry of these leads and the way their delivering their lines are so…ahhh! I think this might become my whole personality when it comes out!
I know the romance will be less of a focus than it was the original but if they are a fraction of how incredibly adorable and cute our Min Min and Bong Bong couple were I will be uncontrollably happy!
Out of curiosity, where do you see those stats on GagaOOLala? I can't seem to see them anywhere. I'm also surprised…
I think GagaOOLala tweeted about it breaking their records - or they retweeted one of the BL Twitter accounts reporting that it had broken GagaOOLala records. I just remember it was definitely on Gagaoolalas Twitter
I’ve been trying to figure out what makes me love this drama so so much and I think so much of it is down to the leads. To me their chemistry and acting is just top tier - chemistry as good as theirs is rare to find in dramas and usually if a pairing has it it’s because they’ve been coupled up in earlier projects or have known each other irl a long time, but that’s not the case here. Also it’s crazy to me that this has over taken My Beautiful Man on GagaOOLala as having the most watched episode on their site - My Beautiful Man was a massive hit - I thought it wouldn’t be beaten for a long long time.
honestly - I just am in love with this series. How it’s shot makes it feel so different to other BLs and it makes me so happy to see! But I can definitely see that it’s the same director as Love Mechanics - there are some similar themes/scenes (but this feels darker) and I am such a huge Love Mechanics fan so I couldn’t be happier.
I just love this drama an insane amount, I was watching it as it was airing, but then I decided to take a break because I was getting through it too quickly. I’m now on episode 24 and I just don’t want it to end. This couples relationship is just so so beautiful. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a drama couple that truly love, support, cherish and value eachother so much (whilst also being so adorable that I can’t help but squeal and giggle over them) I just love all these characters and I’m going to miss this drama - I can’t believe I only have 2 episodes left! I think this drama also is a sign that my preferences as a viewer have changed - I used to be all about the dramatic, toxic “will they/won’t they” plots but for the past year the dramas I’ve enjoyed the most are about these cute, healthy, stable, strong relationships.
