Well, because watching something that is unrealistic is boring and damages the value of a good story for me.
There is a big difference between a story being a fiction, and a show to be realistic. Being realistic doesn't mean that it has to be same that in real life, but that it must be logical and believable. For example, "Star Wars" is a fiction, but the many races shown in there are realistic, even though they don't exist in real life...
If you like cross-dressing in sageuk, it's good for you. I like cross-dressing, but not in sageuk, because it's never well done and it doesn't bring value to the story, on the contrary, it only brings the same clichés and tropes situations that, for me, reduce the interest and the quality of the production.

Well, I don't know the main couple as idols, so I guess I'm not biased by that (they are not bad actors, but neither they stand out), and I often don't agree with the main feminine opinion about BLs in this website (I'm not the target for this so it's a given, I guess), so I'm not surprised by the laudatory comments for this one too.
But the comparison with "Our dating Shim" that is currently airing is enough to prove how low quality this one is for me.

I was referring to "A Shoulder to Cry On", which is airing right now too but which I find very cliché and boring, but with episodes which are double the time of these ones.

Oh no, it's not that I don't think that they cannot debut. Of course they all have some talents to be there (even if there are still questionnable people in the Top 28 for me), but I don't think the current Top 15 (to be large in case of changes in the ranking), would really blend well together considering their diversity and various talents. That's what I mean when I wrote that he would be better off alone. I don't see them, right now, working well as a group. Of course I can be wrong, but that's what I feel for the moment.

Seriously, this show... and people voting with their feet.
I have watched this only for Han Bin, because he genuinely impressed me with his cover of "Beautiful Beautiful", and keeps being outstanding, but I'm worried for the people who will debut with him. He would seriously be better off alone with such talent.

So cliché, that's quite boring, and the illogical plot keeps going on after the first episodes. Definitely not a good one for me. Also, the secondary characters are really not helping in this one I think.

This one is so good. Why does it have to be so short ? The best Korean BLs are mostly shorter than the boring ones (just like its current counterpart...), that's so annoying. Lee Seung Gyu and
Lee Jong Hyuk are both very good, true actors. Looking forward to the next episodes and their respective careers.

Everybody do that for every drama/movie, or anything, here or anywhere in Internet. It's the same with restaurants ratings. ^^
People who like can express it in the comments. People who don't like can equally express it in the comments. And everybody can either share their opinions, debate or ignore the comments. That's only natural, everybody is free to express his opinion.
The real problem is the people who can't accept others opinions and keep pushing their opinions over others.
When it comes to films and TV series, it's a matter of taste. Of course some things can be objectively discussed (quality of production, music, acting, etc.) but it is still subjective as you cannot rate the feelings a person experienced when watching something. ;)

That's true. Since 2016/2018 we have almost only rom-com sageuk with the same boring clichés and tropes over and over, with relationships and stories that look exactly like the rom-coms that take place in current times but transposed to Joseon era. And the diversity of stories, characters and eras is very much lacking indeed.
Some of them, too few unfortunately, are still good though, but we sure miss the long and epic sageuk era.
It costs quite a lot indeed to produce a very good sageuk, so money must definitely be one of the reasons. But it's also due to the public. These trashy rom-coms, I totally agree with that, please the main target (young women), like it's visible here on MDL.

I was really excited for this one, until I found out today that there is, again, cross-dressing in it. They really need to stop doing that in sageuk. That doesn't make any sense as it is totally non-believable in almost every case, and it rarely brings much value to the story. I hate this trope. I still hope the story and the production will be good, even if it's already a major minus point for me.

This drama is simply so good. Episodes 9 and 10 were so enjoyable. And the cast is really perfect for the characters.

Young Woo's character is such a jerk, it's difficult to like him ^^, but he is really great at portraying Cheol Woong, I'm very happy for him. I believe this role will be an important step in his career.

Finally ! It's not the perfect drama, few things bothered me (bird dropping disappearing, come on!), but it's finally a "mature BL", which itself is a big step forward for Korean BL dramas. And even more, it doesn't feel like a BL at all actually, but simply like a rom-com that is centred on a romantic relationship between two men. So even if it's not the most amazing drama out there, it's definitely a great one for this milestone I think.

The first two episodes were good, but 3 and 4 are really good actually ! The characters are interesting, the acting on point and the dynamics too. I like that they are straightforward and don't beat around the bush like so many BLs. They make really good use of the short format. Really really good.

Why do you keep pushing your opinion over mine ? You don't have the monopoly of the definition of a plot hole. And the whole story isn't needed to characterise a plot hole anyway.
So you're free to think like you want, and me too. Stop forcing others to think like you, especially over something that is highly subjective. People behaving like that are really problematic.

Every person watching an adaptation must have read the original work ? No. So from my current point of view this is one example of the illogical aspects of the story in this drama so far. If there is a reason and it is explained later, good, but right now it looks like a big plot hole, which isn't a good point for me. It's not like it's a thriller drama.

It might get better, but the start his a big fail for me. Overly dramatic moments that are not well balanced with non-funny comedy parts. Annoying or boring characters (Jeong Ho Gyun is bound to be stuck to cliché characters if it's all he can do as an actor... his character is so similar as "All the Liquors", and it's not a good point), illogical developments (we start with two guys how try to hookup, but just after they are simply good friends like they never tried to do it together), etc. Definitely too weak from the start to become a great BL. Too bad.

Nobody wrote that it should be a drama with just two characters, or that secondary characters aren't needed, or that Humans are not social beings. I clearly wrote that for me too much space and time was given to secondary characters for such short episodes and drama format. Not that they should disappear. That's quite different.
Episode 7 actually made up for that a little bit since then.

It keeps getting better every week. I love it. These characters are adorable, and the whole cast is really, really good.

Thanks a lot !
