I like that although the series has pnly 6 short episodes, they take their time to introduce the main characters' background. Tupe is obviously an allrounder - good at flowers, good at cooking hot dogs, and good a making his boss smile, and Rich has obviously waited for a guy like him. I hope he won't be disappointed...
Episode 7 had some very sweet scenes. I like both couples now - they are written quite realistically. I also like that the amazing BLIHID couple didn't divorce. I'm enjoying this series now.
This series started off very promising, but the past few episodes lost a lot of its charm. I'll still stick to it for the sake of Sato and Sota who are doing a great job.
Whereas this could have been a great series, because the basic idea provides a lot of opportunities for the plot as well as the characters, it suffers from the poor acting of the main lead which becomes even more obvious as he is surrounded by great actors like Yacht, Pat, and Tae.
It always surprises me that Korean BLs succeed in telling a story and developing relationships in 6 short episodes when some others don't achieve the same in 13 full length episodes. I'll definitely rewatch this one, because I love Ji Woo.
I didn't like the series after the first 2 episodes, but I do love it now. The plot is unique, and I guess we are up to a lot of surprises in the 8 episodes to follow. The cast is brilliant, too. Tae was the only reason for me to endure the pain of watching PwL, and he is again doing great. Tee was amazing in TMOTB and displays a completely different facet of his skills here, and then there is Fiat who never disappoints in whatever role he plays.
I just couldn't get enough of that amazing Hyun Jun, so I rewatched the beautiful Strongberry short film "Please tell me so". He's one of my favourite actors, and that short film tells a story in 8 minutes that some series take 12 long episodes to tell.
After every episode I think it can't get any better, and a week later I learn that it actually can. What a beautifully scripted series this is, and in this episode Erek Lin's acting topped his already amazing performance from previous episodes.
I am willing to accept any kind of excuse or explanation why a small production company like Philstagers have problems uploading subtitles, even after 3 weeks. What I don't like is when there is no explanation at all.
Episode 6 was sub-standard in almost every respect. I was glad that Amy was gone, but then the permanent fighting among the main and the secondary couples are hard to watch. Then there are all the "little" things of everyday life, be it in the kitchen of a big top hotel, in Poon' s rented house, or in his neighbour's retsurant, that are completely unrealistic.
I thought I couldn't stop watching Peter, but now I wonder if I'll be able to watch another episode of this series if it does not improve by at least 100%.
Although I usually don't like the evil ex- or wannabe-girlfriend trope, I like the way it is being dealt with in this show. An elder brother who teams up with his brother's boyfriend to protect Lukchup and expose Namning, plus the two groups of friends being at the victim's side is a good example of how to intelligently deal with bullying.
There are 3 episodes left, and I hope they won't be wasted by covering this bullying subplot. Lukchup and Ram are such a lovely couple (and both actors really fine) that I'd like the final episodes to focus more on their story.
There are too many negative characters in this show - the girl stalking her professor, Namjun who is violent like a volcano that is always on the brink of erupting, 21st century girls and boys in a love class who are completely astonished two guys may be dating, and not to forget Ro A who exploits Ji Woo. The latter is the only positive character ,and I also like Hyun Jun's acting, but that's too little for me to love this show wholeheartedly.
This series has been the biggest surprise of 2022 so far. It came in the disguise of a silly, shallow, OTT comedy, and it turned out to be one of the most beautiful series ever, with a wonderful cast, from the leads to the smallest support roles, with comedy that was funny, romance that was romantic, and messages that were so much deeper than expected.
Some good series have been messed up by an awful penultimate episode or disappointing finale, but SCOY got the beautiful finale it deserved. Next to "Teddy Bear", this is the series I will miss the most, with "DNA" probably joining this exclusive club soon.
Despite many flaws like subplots ending in a dead end and characters popping up and disappearing without contributing anything to the plot I liked this series. Of course it wasn't as good as "You're my sky" which had a similar basic idea, but guys like Offroad, Poon and also Gap (who I didn't like too much at first, but he grew on me in the final episodes when his acting wasn't so stiff any more ) made me stick to it. I would have loved it more if Saint had got a happy ending.
