I’m really enjoying this series that seemed to suddenly appear without any fanfare. It’s cute, funny, the two male leads are adorable, and the second couple has some very steamy moments. What more could you ask for? Misunderstandings abound!
Excellent series! Great story, acting, effects. Great chemistry between the two male leads.This is one of the best BL series ever produced! I LOVED IT!
“Yes, I know sometimes you have to check your brain at the door for over-the-top or fantasy- type stories, but only if the core story and messaging make sense. Generally, IMO, if there’s going to be something incredibly outlandish, most everything else needs to be reasonably realistic for all the pieces of the story to make sense.”
Yeah. It was just OK, but, the best out of the three— the other two being: Popular Serizawa & After Moving Seats. It had the most realistic situations.
The stylized acting & direction, the low-key story, all remind me of Light on Me…which is one of my favorite BL series, still! But, thank goodness, Summertime is a little more mature. I LOVE it.
Amnesia Twist: Shen Mo loses his memory in an accident and mistakes Ji Mingxuan—the man who saved him—for his romantic partner.
Real Love Formed: Over six months of living together under this misunderstanding, real and deep love develops between them.
The Catch: Shen Mo eventually gets his true memories back, erasing the entire six-month period he spent falling for Ji Mingxuan.
Contract Relationship: Unwilling to lose him, Ji Mingxuan proposes a three-year "contract lover" agreement, leading to a tense, emotional urban romance as old feelings and secrets resurface.
Itaewon Class is my top choice. It’s a beautiful story of overcoming life’s challenges and coming out on the other side, a better, more fulfilled human being. The OST is filled with so many great songs and really adds, so much, to the series. It goes without saying that the cast is top-notch and I like that the characters were very diverse for a KDrama.
AGREE, 1000%!!!!!
I LOVE it.
