It can be difficult for some viewers to accept the idea of an older man falling for a younger man. Even though we live in what’s supposed to be a more open culture, certain relationships still carry a sense of taboo. But as the saying goes, love is love—and if BL relationships are to be embraced, then age-gap dynamics should be viewed with the same openness that we often grant heterosexual couples.

What stands out about this series is how much it focuses on character growth and emotional evolution. As the story unfolds, you discover there’s much more depth to the relationship than first meets the eye, which makes it all the more special. While the acting still has room for improvement, the natural chemistry between the leads more than makes up for it. The kissing scenes could have been stronger, but it’s worth noting that both actors are straight, which adds its own challenge.

I haven’t seen many BL dramas produced and located in Hong Kong and it has potential. The OST is both beautiful and haunting, adding a layer of atmosphere that lingers after each episode. I’d love to see these two actors reunited in future projects
