masterpiece story and mesmerizing chemistry

I have rewatched, I'm rewatching and I will re-watch this again and again and again. I was not planning to write the review until I have finished but I can't wait to say this..what a masterclass drama.. I was waiting this type of bl from Korea. we will get everything from this series, top notch acting, melting chemistry, bold characters, and the main thing, the way they carried the story line and the character development. simply amazing. There is a scene where a homophobic will get the right reply for his behaviour.. and those scenes will give you the perfect goosebumps (that kiss was historical).
And what to say about tae myung ha, who will never fall for him.. even I fell the minute I saw him.. when you are his favourite, he will do whatever he can to protect you from the world. This series will give you the right amount of laugh, cry and you will experience the love for sure.. like the legendary words from TMH ' it's not the icecream, it's you that I like..', i hope we all get that kind of confidence in our life.
This series is about our main lead gets trapped inside a game and I'm have way through.. and now I can sense a heart break, me crying but also a happy ending.. I wish everybody get the chance to watch this drama.. and by the way they have one of the best OST.

oh to be happy

um dos principais motivos que me fez começar a consumir BL's foi a variedade de conteúdo que era possível encontrar entre as séries. com o tempo, apesar de ainda perceber que existe uma grande variedade a gente consegue notar alguns padrões que são mais comuns do que aparentam entre as obras. então, eu fico muito feliz quando uma obra apresenta algo relativamente novo e faz isso de uma maneira boa. é exatamente o que acontece aqui, no segundo episódio eu já estava completamente obcecado com toda a história e conforme foi avançando, ela foi ficando melhor. eu fiquei muito surpreso do modo como o drama se desenvolveu pois eles acertaram na medida, foi uma surpresa pois escalou para um local que eu não estava esperando e eu fiquei totalmente envolvido com a história. o romance que se desenvolve é incrível, a disposição de entender que o amor é sacrifício e que a felicidade pode ser encontrada apesar das dificuldades tornam a obra uma das maiores produções do mundinho bl sul coreano.

ainda me incomoda o formato das séries serem curtas e com poucos episódios, mas fiquei feliz que essa daqui teve 30min por ep no mínimo e soube aproveitar bem os poucos episódios.

Surprising, original and touching

Omg this show has my whole heart. It's super original, surprises you with the direction, and at then end it has a message that makes the whole story even more worth it and powerful.

Story: While the story is original and a lot of fun to watch, I think either the script or the subtitles were doing it bad lol— parts of it got a bit confusing, but even that didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the show.

Acting: So good from all the cast, but Taevin was a standout. He's so good?? I'm definitely going to be watching him for future projects, I hope we'll get to see more of him.

Characters: I felt so refreshed by the characters in this show. They were different in small but important ways from typical BL characters. In particular, I think the friend Sangwon was a standout interesting character. (minor spoilers:) once a head bully— but even when he was a bully, it seems he was never one of the more malicious ones since kyungha wasn't particularly afraid of him— when he encounters Taeha, he changes. And even tho he doesn't get his way, he's vengeful or bitter, but instead is still a good friend to the whole group.

Overall such a fun drama, with a deeper purpose at the end that will make you feel all the more like it's worth the watch. I hope it goes to viki tbh so I can access it easier + in hopes that it gets better subs ;-;

Absolutely No.1 in K-Bl

- kinda confused at first and quite fantasy as many korean serie, so we don't need to ask about god or game maker. If you watch for 2nd time or a quick learner, you will understand the story.
- This serie sure has budget more than many others. Main protagonist run a lot. I fee tired just watching him run.
- Story is very very good, actually it can be long as normal serie, because there are many interesting characters, but air time is not supported.
- Acting is very superb. I am amazed enough to go and find IG for Tae Myang Ha. Visual effect is above average and OST is good
Won't spoil other detail, just go and watch serie!!
- I am crazy after finish 1st round, and 2nd time is even more crazy because there are some dialogue that I am not into at first.
- Even more crazy than semantic error. Therefore this should be one of the top Korean BL in my heart.
- gonna support this serie with OST soon after they published.

Literally the best Korean BL

This is such a good show, it's been over 2 months and I am still not able to move on. The entire story is well thought out and makes perfect use of all the tools the setting allows. Using all the tricks it can but still keeping it tangible for the viewer, the characters choices are always relatable to a certain degree. The concept is just really well thought-out and they worked so well with the running time as well. It's easy for alot of plots to become really surface level when there's not much time to develope certain plot drives but that's really not the case here.

The casting is amazing as well, they have great chemistry and they work really well as a friendgroup too, not just within the couple. The cinematography is chef's kiss, i loved it from beginning to end.

Happiness For Happiness Sake

Took me a little while to binge this after this series finished airing. I think it’s because I had OD on Thai BLs for a little while now. Especially the saccharine school BLs that GMMTV puts out. I needed a BL rinse before getting into another school BL. This Korean BL was just the right binge.

First off I adored Cha Yeon Woon for being the prickly ML. He reminds me of Milk from Choco Milk Sahke. I really like these kind of characters. He’s not the typical prickly type of ML that have walls that are too high to climb over like Nueng in Never Let Me Go or Kawi in Be My Favorite. He’s adorable in the cutest way. I love how he initiates the first kiss and gives the first confession despite his shyness.

Then there is Tae Myung Ha as the MC being the grouchy uncle persona as the senior of the group of friends. He’s so clueless for the 29 year old in a 19 year old body. This dude is clueless about love and happiness despite being thr adult who view everyone as a kid. He’s the biggest kid mentally for not understanding his actions towards Cha Yeon Woon. It is really Cha Yeon Cha who teaches him about life and how to enjoy it.

Cheon Sang Won and Ahn Khung Hoon are the side couple which I liked. For KBLs, I really do not need side couples taking away from the focus of the main couple. Especially when there’s 8 short episodes. Even if this series has longer episodes than most KBLs. It is still short. I am mixed about Cheon Sang Won because he comes off too strong to Tae Myung Ha is pursing him even after he got rejected. It’s also ridiculous that he would let himself get beaten up so he can get Tae Myung Ha attention for being gay after TMH kissed Junho. But then he befriends cha Yeon Woon even if he is his love rival. Ahn Khung Hoon seems like a filler character to the sister who help TMH gets work and build a fanbase for CYW.

This series reminds me of Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint. The goal, the timeline, the penalty and even the secondary goals. The author of this manga must have drawn inspiration from ORV.

The plot twist ending is interesting. I wish I didn’t read the spoiler for the ending so I could’ve enjoyed it more. So I am not going to give the spoiler to the ending here.

Definitely worth the binge.

Interesting plot with attractive and well-written characters.

This drama's biggest strength i believe would be the characters that are written really well and all the actors are able to portray it magnificently.

Tae Myungha is such an attractive character as a whole. I really fell in love with his character right off the bat. He has this big presence as a fighter legend that makes no one dares touch him, yet he is not overly arrogant about it. He is so sure of himself and never let other's view on him affect how he does things. The way he is so focus on his goals and never let anyone hold him back no matter what is also very protective. I just really love his character so much!

Cha Yeowoon on the other hand, might seem really complex, yet i dare say he is in fact quite simple. He is this 0 or 100 kinda guy. He build up his wall so high, yet once he let someone in, he is in 100000%, and i love him for it. I also love how he never shies away from showing his affections and always proactive in communicating his needs, which avoids any unnecessary misundertandings.

The plot is also really interesting and the ending is thought-provoking. I really like how the game universe doesn't really feel forced and the production value is also top-notched. The pacing is also excellent. I tend to skip over any filler scenes or any scenes basically that thought boring, but i never skip any scene in this drama.

And i also love how this drama has minimum "cringey" scenes. all the scenes are so beautifully taken, up to a point where you can randomly took a screenshot and it'll look pretty.

All and all this is such a fun watch and definitely ruin the bar for bl dramas for me. highly recommended!

A captivating dream come true

This is actually one of my absolute favourite shows of all time. The story is rich and never fails to keep you entertained and the acting is amazing and captivating, so much that I still obsess over these qualities even after the show's airing period.
This show exceeded my expectations and stays in my mind to this day. If you're someone who enjoys a good hurt/comfort story as well as the second chance trope, I feel like you would truly enjoy this. It has the perfect amount of angst and comfort in it's scenes, which is a balance I appreciate and love.
The actors did an amazing job and the production is beautiful and unforgettable. If you have a chance, definitely take the time to watch Love for love's sake <3
