Cute Little Story
Without a doubt, this is a lovely little cute series.There are very less BLs with working lead characters, this is one of them. I would love to see more working professionals BL series.
About the story
Even when the story is something which we have seen time and time again where one person hating another later falls in love.
It would have been better to cover some plotholes, including the one speaking to the backstory of Shi Lei and the company.
Sie couples were ignored a bit, would have been a bit better to showcase their life and their perspective.
About the acting
Loved the acting of both main leads, especially Shi Lei, his cuteness was adorable.
Please ignore my music rating.
I believe ending could have been better.

Good but Rushed at last episodes
I liked the series, It was good till 6th episodes but 7th & 8th were too rushed. Multiple scenes were cut during editing confusing the viewers.Was this review helpful to you?
Not recommended for calculative viewers
To be frank, I can't see what other reviewers see about the chemistry between the 2 leads in the series. The chemistry doesn't feel like lovers but friends/brothers. Their chemistry lacks intimacy, roamance, the feeling of longlines for physical touch, getting awestruck, staring at your partner. Even the way they look at each other doesn't feel like a look between lovers but old friends.Coming to the story, I think it's too unrealistic. If I even accept the soul switch, my mind cant just accept many things that happen between the leads (normal things) as between boy and boy, it's a girl's body being treated like a man, especially by Korn is just too much for me to accept. in most of the scenes they have shown win playing the role of Lin, but if you think from Korn's scenario it will be too much to react like the way he did during their long trips.

Slow, repeated story
The story is something that we have seen from time to time. Especially university BLs are too common.The story is slow between 2 main leads, one who doe everything using logic has his whole life properly structured whereas the other is carefree and pretty much opposite of the other guy.
The story is a bit slow, I think it would have been better to show it as a movie instead.
The acting is nice but the carefree character could have been portrayed a bit better.

Good start, but became boring in last few episodes
The start of the series was good, but I started to lose interest after about two third of the series was completed.It became very repetitive, like something, we have seen time and time again.
Seems like many scenes were introduced, just to increase the reel time of the series.
Acting was good of both the actors, excepts for some specific emotions here and there (Dr Wandee).
I believe the whole city of 12 episodes could have been reduced down to 8 episodes, and it would have turned out much better

Simple and cute
I felt the whole series was simple and cute although the ending felt a bit incomplete to me, maybe there is a special episode or something.There were some minor plotholes but otherwise, it was a nice watch, I enjoyed it.

Mostly not Illogical or Immature like other BLs these days
Other than some scenes and lacking here and there, I liked this series. It was a nice journey for the main couple.However, less screen time was given to other couples and most of them was not covered properly and rushed.
Would have liked to see the 2nd couple move forward or just have time for more chemistry.
Apart from some of the scenes seeming too forced , including most of the kiss scenes it was definitely a good watch.
I just loved some of the dialogues in the series :-
What am I to you, for me, you are the future I want to work hard for.
There's nothing in the world that's too tough to handle, the sun always rises tomorrow. Keep going!

Nice but extended, not exactly slow paced
I liked the series as the director did a great job with the casting, setting the scenes, etc.The acting was good with a scope of improvement, more emotions could be shown there.
The series was more extended according to me, I don't mind the age gap between them at all since it's more than just consensual and most of the things there are maturely done.
But most of the episodes are just the same things being repeated over and over again, however, it is done beautifully in a calming way.
The ending however could have been better, it seemed a bit illogical if we look at the series as a whole.

Cute & Hilarious, Slow Moving but fast paced, abrupt ending
I really liked this series, it was going so good. The pace was slow but they never made me feel like it. It was always the longing feeling to know what's going to happen now, when are they actually gonna happen with this one.I didn't like how it ended at all.
Still would recommend to watch, one of the best series I have watched this month.

Loved the story and the atmosphere it created
P.S. Don't judge this series by 1st 3 episodes, otherwise you will drop it.The base story is just amazing, it's one of the best of the ones I have watched in months ad I have watched over 100.
The series is underappreciated but I think I understand the reason why, which I will cover it in some points below.
Scope of Improvement and where it went wrong
* The story was confusing, the structure of scenes/script seemed incorrect.
* Slow Paced series, it could have been wrapped in 8 episodes easily.
* Some of the side stories were unnecessary just increased the confusion and made us lose focus in the main story.
* The timeline, 10 years duration just doesn't match with how the series was presented.

A bit sad but happy ending
Most episodes of the series are sad which I normally don't go for but I am content with the ending. I was perfect and not illogical or incomplete as the last couple of episodes were hinting at.The story is kind of mixed but overall is about a team of grim reapers who saves people from committing sucides.
I think it would have been presented a bit better if they would have include more scenes showing how happy people's lives long were after they were saved.
A bit rushed ending but I liked it. It's kind of perfect. As him having his memories would have been illogical and since living humans cant be grim reapers he cants just to stay fully alive and continued working.
2 things I didn't like about the series
* Sad
* They started with something else but the base story was changed as the episodes progressed.

Amazingly presented a simple story
I just loved how a simple story was presented in such a nice way. A big appreciation goes to the director and the fantastic actors for that. They played their role in just the perfect way.With negligible side story, the base story is something that we have seen time and time again but as I have said the way it was portrayed added essence to the story.
Would definitely recommend it.
This story speaks to a lot of what was the story of a person from the LGBTQ+ community in their education years and I am happy that it had a happy ending.

started great but incomplete ending
On average, an episode is like 20 minutes, out of which 3-4 minutes just go towards what already happened and the series song/video.In many episodes, things are extended a lot although since it's done nicely it doesn't bore much.
The series was good, a bit short but even the short story was extended but since it was put nicely it just matched but the ending completely spoiled the series, it just felt purely incomplete.
I think the makers might have thought of it as a window for 2nd season but if the 1st season doesn't end well people won't recommend it to anyone, ratings would drop and the scope of 2nd season will just decrease.
i myself wont recommend to watch this series.

Irresistible Love: Secret of the Valet
1 people found this review helpful
Story :
Shu Nian has a crush on his master who is homophobic but subconsciously loves him or is just in denial. When he finds out about the crush, he sends him far away but later confronts himself and gives in.
The acting was pretty good especially of the actor playing the role of master Xie Yan,but the direction has a good scope for improvement.
The toxic nature is very pungent of the master throughout the series.

I'm not sure what other than the base story is correct in this series.
Actors tried to play their character well but it just didn't match. It felt like teenagers were casted for a role of 24+ characters.
The base story was good but other than that the whole script wasn't going in any particular direction.
The direction was real bad, lighting was incorrect, especially in the night setting.
Even the editing of the series went wrong.
Lol even the makeup on the actors didn't suit their characters.
