i wish i knew so i couldve skipped, it was hard deal with.

people are selling this short if they recommend it as a spicy BL (which it is, still but…)

ren actor is not a good actor but they had chemistry

its fantasy

et ep 7 - this is so wholesome and chaste, i like it but it feels much more highschool than college

lol
sorry i took it too seriously because i was slightly appaled that this show didnt have much true romance. it colored how i read this 😆entirely missed then “jk”

how can viewers stand the bad acting? or maybe they were given bad direction? idk but i couldnt get past it

this season is definitely not about love, there is no love. just self serving attraction. i hope people dont think this is what love makes you think/feel/do

im curious if the entire journey will make me appreciate this season more in retrospect

its more than lack of communication. its probably lack of knowing themselves. because their motives are blatantly self serving.

is what happens in this season yearning?! not by my definition. id call it warship. and whatever else is going on in this season is very dehumanizing for both leads. hoping this is merely the starting point!

im dying of frustration here. how can the start be such a horrendous experience, im really holding out for season 2

its treated like an oopsie; it was out of love, oopsie, lets move on now as if something serious didnt just happen in fact its not serious because if you really think about arent all paries involved at fault? (for the grape mind you, horrific.)

its so bad idk why no one is talking about it. its the very definition of superfluous and irresponsible. it doesnt in itself do anything for the plot of characters its there just for random sock value and to serve as the most apologetic (of grape) messaging ever.

garbage level handling of grape. ruined it all.

the inner monologue of the bottom reminds me why i got burned out on anime romances.

the acting is only good enough. i like the rest, quite a bit but acting is huge in selling a romance. i wish we had this concept, plot, etc but with the acting quality and of korean dramas. (the acting average is so much higher there for some reason, idk why)

anyway, halfway through and a solid enjoyable watch

this is my second jbl after Out Youth (which is markedly superior). i had similar lamentations on the acting as i came from watching a kbl called Let Free the Curse of Taekwondo in which the acting could not have been better.

loads of chemistry

this is exactly the insight i was looking for and it makes a ton of sense with my observations also. thank you so much for taking the time to write this!

i mean don’t get me wrong its still a solid 7.5-8/10

this didnt live up to the hype, but the other one “love for love’s sake” does so definitely try that if you liked this.

some people say this is a love triangle well done, i think its because all involved are sweet people. but as far as im concerned this is why i hate love triangles, i cannot stand when the main character struggles to decide between two people. its a pet peeve
