As it's seen on the headline this series was slightly boring and I don't even know why.I genuinely love vampire stories but this just doesn't get to you in words that I can't really describe.Maybe it's because it drags the drama a lot which makes the series lengthy.Korean-like production would suit the series better in my opinion,30 minute per episode and 8 eps in total.Because we all knew what was going to happen between the couple from the start so you might as well get to it as soon as possible but also in a motion that we can savour the couple's great chemistry.
Although I sensed some kind of betrayal from Thara,I could never predict I would love Nakan's character.They always have to make us like the side characters in the last few episodes!
Is it just me or Gawin's acting has really improved since be my favorite?He seems more comfortable while acting and doesn't look stiff in specific scenes which he did in Be My Favorite.Another possibility is that maybe he just acts bottom characters better though,I guess I'll never know.Then of course we have Joss.I'm always mesmerized by his looks and was glad to finally have a BL series with him.I enjoyed even boring scenes thanks to his looks.I find his acting also solid,I mean I wasn't obsessed to be honest but their chemistry made each lovey-dovey scene better that we could ignore some minor disturbances.
However,I found Tong's personality extremely annoying.Like,girl you are face to face with death and you still don't care about it and willing to pursue a relationship with a vampire who has the possibility of draining all your blood on a random Tuesday night.Not only you're like this but you also soothe him when he gets the urge to do that?I found this situation really desperate and nonsense but I couldn't really blame anyone for this because otherwise how were they even going to matchmake them?I don't have the answers for that but still,that seems illogical.The other reason why I found Tong's personality silly is that he uses the phrase "use my blood","you can get my blood" etc.Who in the world is willing to die like this?I personally haven't encountered one yet.In that scene,where they were trying to make someone talk to know where Nakan was,Tong told Mark to trust him and I sincerely thought we would get to see a reasonable solution for the problem but no!Our devoted golden blood just pricks himself and says "I'll let you taste my blood".Girl literally forgot that there are other vampires than Mark and Thara at the location.You can clearly see that Mark is holding someone one-armed and the vampire he's blocking doesn't even try to reach Tong.So this was also nonsense,I mean overall Tong was nonsense.
Throughout the series,the plot just didn't grab me.I couldn't find logical answers to my questions like why doesn't Nakan eat Tong anyways?He knows he's the golden blood but all he cares is getting a revenge on Thara?Come on,it doesn't make any sense.I mean there is that scene where he couldn't drink his blood but I thought it was because Mark was around,though the series never really explains the reason why Nakan couldn't reach him at that moment.I had liked the "21st birthday" thing but it was also somehow not surprising nor intriguing.
I loved how the musics were all made by Gawin and Joss.I enjoyed hearing their majestic voices in the episodes and it suits the drama perfectly.But would I listen to it again besides the drama?Probably not.
I have a lot of nonsense plots and superficial scenes in my mind to spot it out but I might as well not and just say that this series doesn't make any sense and even if you like vampire stories a lot and think you'll never be able to not like the series,I mean go for it,watch it.But I would consider this series as a casual BL drama rather than a well-done vampire series.I watched it while journaling so it was kind of more bearable like that.
