I loved all the romance!
I binged watched this series, once all the eps were out. I often get more out of them when I do this.
it was such a pleasure to see Yim in particular NOT playing a silly, goofy character.
they both looked spectacular and Tutor looks stunning in EVERYTHING he wears! (and doesn't wear)
all the actors did a good job. Marc was super hawt too, and honestly, about every body in this is good looking.
spoilers :
the story is about 5 writers who as a break from the everyday, decided to write a BL together. Each of them write in a different genre, so it takes some effort to bring the story they are writing together in a cohesive way. (much of which we miss)
At the same time, they are struggling to write their weekly web stories and meet their deadlines too.
oh, and there is an online chat group of the 5 writers, where they discuss the story (and other stuff) while dressed as their spirit animals. Too funny!
it can be confusing though, because you suddenly see the actors in a new place/content/world/character, and sometimes the chapter before doesn't exactly match up to the next chapter, from the prior episode. Especially if the chapter is from their personal web story, and not the team one. (which happens with out much notice. lol)
The Wuxia parts are so pretty (part of mostly Obun's imagination and the story he's writing, but the same style is used for the group story too.)
but once you understand that those chapters don't have much to do with the actual storyline, it's fine. :))
so don't stress too much trying to understand them.
Just treat them like someone walked into your room and read you a chapter out of book you aren't reading, while you are watching a show. and they keep coming back to share another chapter with you. :)) and because you love them, you just let them ramble on while your show is paused. :)
there are some random 'drama' moments. They don't last long, so don't worry too much about them. (very low stress, low anxiety show)
everyone of the 5 writers will get some sort of partner. You may think that it's strange when it happens, but I think they were just trying to not leave anyone out. shrug
there are plenty of nice kisses, and some pretty darn good spice scenes too. very tastefully done.
after ep 7 there are tons of lovey dovey romance moments, which filled my heart and made me laugh many many times.
as for the rewatch value, I LOVED all the romance, so for me I will definitely revisit it in the future.
many people seem to be bashing this series.
But I loved it. hope you find it entertaining, and enjoy the eye candy!
