I went into this BL when it was halfway through airing and was expecting to be not overly impressed by it. And then in a complete twist of events, I fell in love with it.

There's so much beauty in this very sad story of two lovers who have to face unimaginable pain and separation. When the costs of duty overthrow any sense of 'choice'. And even when choices are made, they only take you further away from the one you love the most. This story felt like poetry to me, surrounded by beauty and all the sharp edges that emotion can bring.

This series stands on its own brilliantly, holding its own even when surrounded by bigger budgeted projects. I hope that this series lays the groundwork for more in this lane, as it is so needed AND wanted.
