Okish Series
The story is simple, something which we have seen time and time again but the chemistry between the leads is nice.Maze is curious and confused (not sexually) about another guy who is extremely opposite to him. Phap has feelings and doesn't mind displaying the same.
The actor playing phap's character has done an amazing job.
The secondary couple wasn't portrayed properly in the series, and I put the blame on the script, direction, and acting.
There are plot holes everywhere in the series with the characters trying to piece it together.
Small things are extended in this series, including a character just repeating stuff said by another one.

Sweet but too short
The base plot of the script is the same old story, enemies to lovers where there is a charming handsome guy who makes the cute one fall in love with him.The story is a bit realistic, unlike most BLs but at the same time need to explore the depth.
The acting was pretty good according to the simple series but I believer the series could have been better if emotions were shown in a bit more intense way.
Woud recommend to watch if you are in mood of something sweet, simple and quick.
The relationship between the leads were handled in a very matuered way wich is the part I really liked in the series.

super extended
The series is super extended and time waste, it can be cut down to 4 ep at max.Focused only and only on the main couple, no focus given to 2nd or 3rd 'couple'. It's like the base story was changed mid-production.
It doesnt show any struggle with each other or anything at all to the matter, too vanilla.
Nhai is a brainless bagoon and Ai is cute, rich who has a crush on him - something which we have seen time & time again.

Short, Simple & Sweet
I normally love hard-pacing series, even when this wasn't one, I really liked it.It's short, sweet, cute and in a way calming, like most soft-pacing Asian BLs are.
Things that I liked
* Actor's cuteness
* Calming nature of the series
* Background Music
* Story covered up nicely in the mini-series
* Realistic nature of the series in some places
Scope of Improvement
* Showing side characters' story
The best part about the series was that they released all the episodes in a single go.

Lol, the receptionist just gave them the keys and they both know which direction to go.Both the actors are hot but half of the time too much makeup is applied.
Both lead actor's played their character good.
Also, I noticed, The angle at which nine takes pictures doesn't match with the actual pictures.
The receptionist is just too extreme.
Many things just don't add up in the special episode, hope the series isn't like this.
The special episode feels to be less budgeted for some reason.

Bad acting, direction
So I completed the series after 3 months of dropping it after watching only 2 episodes. Overall I believe it okish but the scenes need to be placed correctly in the script because many times things feel illogical.Old Review : (Will try to update soon)
The acting and direction is too bland, too vanilla. Dropping the series after just an episode and half.
The story is goodish but the actors didn't portray their roles properly, even the simplest of the emotions weren't shown properly, which speaks about both acting and direction.
The story went too slow for the series, what was covered in 2 episodes could have been covered in just one.
I have seen the recent series of the same actors (not just the lead) and found out that their acting is way better in the recent series, in comparison with this one.
Here the acting seems purely forced and artificial where as in the recent ones its way more realisitic.

not worth watching
Every episode speaks to a different story. About 20 minutes to tell a story, which is definitely not enough.I dropped the series after watching 2 episodes.
1st episode lacked a proper backstory, its like the episode is trying to tell a small part in a couple's life when one gets too busy engrossed in work but since it lacked a backstory, things were too sudden, in a single word I would describe it as incomplete. The only thing I liked from the episode is the music.
2nd episode was just plain dumb where it speaks to the relationship between a cat and a human, where the character of the cat is played by a human.
I cant guess what the series wants to focus on. Wouldnt recommend watching even for time pass.

Meets Expectation
Oh, I just loved the pacing of the show. have been waiting for this show for so long and it didn't disappointI just hope the chemistry between the actors follows the same pace as can be seen in the first episode.
Things that I liked
* The story buildup
* Pace
* Duration of the episode
* Hot actors
Scope for Improvement
* Acting of some of the side actors like Porsche's brother
* gone are the days where we wait for episodes every week, don't know why even now many Asian series releases once every week. I am not sure if I won't lose my interest in this BL (even when it's just my type) because of this weekly thing.
