AMAZING
Wow I was really reluctant to start this drama, mainly because I thought this was going to turn out like the one of those drastic BL where the parents were not going to accept and we were going to have a whole blackmail drama session, well I am glad i watched it and extremely mad at the ending, wish they would hurry up with 2 already!!
Okay onto the review, well firstly it was really good and I loved the two main leads and how they challenged themselves to go against the norm of raising a child, I can imagine the difficulty that may have encountered along the way. Do not get me wrong, I like a good romantic BL. But this show is so much closer to the real life of a gay couple! This is a fact that often bothers me, that 99% of the BL series our there are not about gay relationships but only exist to please a certain kind of viewers: women who ship the actors even in their private life, regardless if they are real or not. This show really "get's to the point": the struggle about having a child as a gay couple, the acceptance of the queer friend group, but not the family (although episode 5 made me burst in applause for the dad, BEST DAD EVER!), the "need" to hide in front of the mom's at kindergarten - and the actors are absolutely believable, they work amazing with each other. I especially loved how supportive he was with his partner, as was always willing to let me handle his parents in his own way, but was there to comfort him, or when he was stressed out about the other mothers etc... whereas in the past the partner would be pressured to come out and admit who there were, however, I do think 6 years into the relationship with a 4 year old kid he should have made a little difference, I did feel for Damián when Jerry had to go on those blind dates (chuckle).
My only Con with this is that it ended with such a cliff hanger (shock)
Overall this is a dam good drama and i feel its done real life form, so hats off for that. Cant wait for 2
