WATCHING PAINT DRY IS MORE FUN THAT THIS MESS
Whoever decided this story needed to continue must’ve lost a bet. Seriously—there’s no other explanation. The writing this season? A masterclass in how to take a decent premise and absolutely butcher it with recycled plotlines, meaningless dialogue, and character arcs that go absolutely nowhere.It’s like the writers copy-pasted season one, sprinkled in a few new characters no one asked for, and said, “That’s good enough.” Spoiler: it wasn’t. Character development? Never heard of her. Emotional stakes? MIA. The whole season plays out like it’s stuck on a loop—same problems, same drama, slightly worse execution.
And the ending? Wow. If the goal was to waste everyone’s time and then slap on a resolution that feels like a punchline to a bad joke—congrats, mission accomplished.
If you’re thinking about watching this for entertainment or closure, don’t. Watch paint dry instead. At least that progresses over time.

Worth watching
Well this was CUTE! Beside that "ending" this drama doesn't have many flaws.Love the leads in this, their chemistry is amazing, the acting is wonderful and the affection is lovely.
Still wonder how this passed all that China banning but I'm glad that it did.
This is such a lovely drama that ends without an ending. But that doesn't mean that you should give up on this.
Would like to recommend this to those who like: easy, light hearted and romantic drama, with gorgeous leads and without unnecessary drama from the other characters. The second couple is amazing and it's nice to see their progress as a couple from enemies to lovers. That can also be said for the lead couple.
Definitely recommend this !!!!

You BETTER BRING HOLLY WATER WITH YOU!!!! This BURNS !!!
That my love was a roller coaster. The emotion, the suspense, the love and the story...my god this was so refreshing to watch after all those engineering love stories.This was by far one of the best BLs that has been released these 2 years.
Amazing production, amazing storyline even though someone might call it "meehh" of a story, well bitch I lived or it. It was something new for the BL world and honestly can't wait to watch this again.
THE CAST my love, the fucking CAST.... It seemed like they were all made for their play, just amazing.
**** MY SHIP FINALLY CAME TRUE ( INSPECTOR M AND DOCTOR OAT )*****
Even though we had literally no scenes from the two, they gave me live with the scene on the last episode. They need series on their own.
MaxTull were perfect, as always. There is nothing left to say about them. Baby they are perfect.
The support characters were amazing, even though some of them made me lose my shiiiit form time to time. Looking at you older sister *wink wink
AMAZING SERIES!

Nothing mind blowing
Well , I'll try to keep this short. I've watched this when it aired but never wanted to give an opinion so here I am now. After re-watching it again I thought I should write something down.Honestly the story isn't something wow or mind blowing, I mean if
you ever watched another series with engineers, you are there with the story 50% from the beginning.
The main couple BohnDuen were interesting the first 3-4 episodes then they started to get annoying. Maybe it's just me but oh my god, their trust factor is no where to be found. Hopefully
they'll be better in season 2.
The next couple RamKing- they were one of the reasons why I continued to watch this show. Lovely character development and they deserved more screen time.
The same goes to TharaFrong - they were the second reason why I kept watching this series. I just love them together and they have an amazing chemistry.
And the last couple MekBoss they were amazing too. I just love their development as a couple.
The cast was cute, the OST was fine and the story was alright, I guess.

Could've been better, but it's not that bad
Let start this review by saying that this was a decent, short drama where we had the breakthrough of one actor, decent female lead and decent side characters. The story is nothing new, but it was easy to follow. If you've watched the Twillight series before, you'll find some things that are kind of off and make no sense, just like in the original.They really went ham on the makeup, the contact lenses. Like I wrote in the comments earlier, they tried to make some anime characters come to life. The effects were funny when they had a fight. And yes, from time to time it was cringy to watch, but if you pass all the things I've said before, it is not that bad of a drama. Probably could've been like 5 episodes and be done with it, but they decided to stretch it for 15 episodes, which is ... Okay, so would i recommend this to someone? Probably no, but If you are interested in watching this, give it a go, it's decent, easy to follow, decent actors, and some what decent acting.

Boring, mediocre, easily forgettable
I started watching this drama few months ago, and I dropped it after the first few minutes. Then I came back and I was ready to give it another go, and somehow I ended up on episode 11. Let me be clear, the plot is not strong enough for the amount of episodes,the unnecessary long and boring scenes that are easily skippable, pointless dramas and what not.The leads were alright,not the biggest fan. The acting was alright but some parts were cringey.
At least I liked the music. I guess that was the only thing that was not boring and pointless.
Other than that, this is a easily forgotten drama, especially through being uninteresting or mediocre.

Cute and fluffy
If you’re seeking a heartwarming and entertaining drama, look no further. This series offers a captivating blend of cute moments, dramatic relationships, and life’s ups and downs. While it may occasionally feel predictable, the easy-to-follow storyline keeps you engaged.Without giving away any spoilers, I can confidently say that this drama is worth watching. Personally, I found the second couple’s story more relatable, but the first one is certainly not lacking in charm. The cinematography is truly impressive, and the acting is commendable. The actors deliver outstanding performances.
Like any other drama, it has its fair share of flaws. One could argue that the storylines of all the couples could have been condensed into fewer episodes. However, considering that a second season is in the works, I suppose this is a minor inconvenience.
If you’re looking for a light-hearted and non-overly dramatic drama, this series is definitely worth checking out.

It made me fall in love and then broke my heart just like my ex/ Only one time watch type of a drama
Well, this drama started great.Loved the first few episodes and I was so hyped for the rest. I couldn't wait for it to air. But, then as the episodes went by, my interest sank lower and lower. I have no idea if my expectation were to high or the drama was getting boring and predictable.
Considering that now we are half way through, I think I can share my opinion on this drama.
LOVED that this was no love story of teens, but more mature one, and the story was quite intriguing. The actors are stunning and I really like the couples. The side characters are alright. As I said, as the story went on, I could've easily guess where it was heading. The stupid writing sometimes was just too predictable. It's been a while since we had a drama revolving around the fashion world and I really liked that. At the beginning I literally feel in love with the story but then It just broke my heart just like my ex. Meaning that you'll get easily hooked and then after a while you'll get disappointed.
That's how I felt with this drama, great start but somehow we are getting to a weak ending. It just lost me.
Again great actors and all but very weak writing at some points. Not gonna spoil the story because I never do in any of my reviews but it just left me disappointed. I will finish this one and probably never watch it again. Not worth it really

Miss KOREA ALWAYS DOES RIGHT WHEN IT COMES TO BL. THIS ONE IS NO EXCEPTION
I mean, c'mon now. We all know that miss Korea is trying slowly to produce some BL series and it might take some time till we see full length episodes but for now let's just enjoy these awesome and refreshing BLs. For short eight episodes you get an amazing development that shows how our leads go from "enemies" to lovers. The production is amazing and the story too, refreshing and cute.The leads have an amazing chemistry and they look so good together. Ain't gonna spoil anything about the story or anything else. Give this one a try and I am sure that you are going to enjoy it.
Wondering if they are going to produce season 2, but they sure need to do something about it.

SAVE YOUR TEARS FOR ANOTHER DAY
This drama is one of THE BEST K-DRAMA EVER!! The story is amazing, and beside all the controversy surrounding it, this was actually really interesting to watch. The character development is amazing, and you can clearly see it. Enjoyed watching every aspect of the story but this is ONLY ONE TIME WATCH type of a drama. Very emotionally heavy and actually there is no point of re-watching it. The story is amazing, even tho I really hated certain aspects of it.The end was expected but was really hard to take in. Just SAVE YOUR TEARS FOR SOMETHING ELSE. I want my tears back and THE MOST HURTFUL thing about this drama is the lack of sweet moments between the leads. I KNOW that this is not a typical love drama, but I really don't like that fact.
Im glad that it's over but definitely will be needed time to get over everything.

Middle Ground
Is this the best Bl out there? No, but it isn't the worst either.Somewhat decent story, with decent acting and fairly decent delivery. It is a much better series than some other letdowns released this year.
The actors were likable, the acting was alright and their expressions were decent enough to make you watch the series. There were some cringe moments like in every other Bl butnothing out of the ordinary. The leads had decent chemistry and I want to see them in other concept.
The story itself was mediocre to me. Maybe because I've seen "better" series with this concept,but it's not that bad.
The music was nothing special to me.
The best part about this series were the moments of understanding, when they communicate to resolve their issues. (to some extent though)
Will I recommend this drama? Well, it's an easy story to follow, there aren't manny story holes, and the characters are not that bad, so if you want to watch this give it a try, you will most likely like it if you are interested in this kind of a concept.
For me it lacked substance to the plot, some scenes were boring to watch and I had to skip most of them, maybe because it was too predictable for me.

Watch this only for the main couple( EDITED)
There is one more episode till the end, but here is my opinion.This part was totally different from the first one. Story-wise was here and there but you'll get confused when you start watching this part, so I recommend YOU to go back and watch the first one, just so you can have an idea what is what.
This part was only worth watching just for the main couple, witch is honestly my favourite for the last few months.
The side couple are all fine in their own way, but nothing special.
Many scenes are skippable. And definitely you'll notice the weird way of filming this drama, I have no idea why they did not stick with the original idea and continue from where it stopped.
First episode is a FULL SKIP
Second is a SKIP TOO
Start watching from the third episode and you'll be just fine.
---------------------EDIT------------------------
Sometimes I wonder, do I really support toxic relationships or the actors are just that good at what they are doing?
The answer is NO for both. Actually really enjoyed the "growth" of the main couple, but it got annoying the last few episodes.
The toxic part is just boring at this point, and the no communication trope is getting old. I understand that there are misunderstandings between the couples, but c'mon,20+ years old and still don't know that the key to a relationship is actually the communication beside all the cute and fluffy moments. I don't blame the actors, the writing sucks.
At this point I really don't see why you need to watch this show. If you are looking for cute actors, you got that, the story is boring, many dramas are having the same concept so nothing new, the writing is very bad, the way its filmed is honestly the some of the worst I've seen.
You can live without this drama. Don't waste your time watching this shit.

SKIP-SKIP
This one goes in the same basket with the other poorly done K-BLs. Would've been nice to see "real" actors doing this series. What I mean by that is the following: Very poor acting skills, the acting is awkward and I can feel the awkwardness throughout the whole series. It feels like it has been filmed on a phone or a very cheep camera.The story is nothing special, it's boring and very predictable. Overall: just skip it and don't waste your time. There is ZERO re-watch value and honestly I would not recommend this to no one.

Mediocre at best
This one had a lovely start. After the first few episodes it lost me completely. I still kept on watching it but the fast forward button was a blessing. Very boring story, decent acting but sometimes it felt kind of cringey, the development of the characters was weak, the side characters were meehh ... The chemistry was alright I guess, but mostly its a forgetful drama. Could've been better, but it really depends on you. For something light and mediocrity I could give it a pass, but its nothing special and mind blowing.Was this review helpful to you?
Cute but monotone/boring
This drama is nothing special. Besides the gorgeous-looking actors and the decent camera work, there isn't much of a substance to this drama. I don't want to say that there is zero plot to this story but it is the truth. A very basic love story with zero plot development. It was cute for the first few episodes but then it got boring. Those who are new to this genre might like it, but overall is a one-time watch drama.1: Story- average/mediocre
2: Acting - decent
3: Music - average
4: Rewatch value - low
