I am so proud of them!!!
I am so incredibly proud of all the members of OnlyOneOf for this but I am ESPECIALLY proud of Nine, Mill, KB and Yoojung. I've only been into Kpop for a few years but one of my 5 bias groups is OnlyOneOf and I have seen their music videos and I love the series of ones that watch like short form BLs. I knew they could act well but I honestly didn't realize just how good Nine and Mill are and I did not realize KB could really pull of a role like this. I mean. I this isn't a super complicated or intricate story but I felt the love connections between everyone needed some good, believable emotion and they delivered on that.
The chemistry between Nine and Mill was so lovely here (no surprise) and the emotion and attention to detail they delivered, especially in their eyes and in the tiniest of facial expressions and body language was so nice to see. Gosh they are just such a wonderfully connected, cohesive group and that was really shown here. KB played his part as the lying, manipulating ex perfectly and Yoojung delivered his role honestly and gently, just as his character seemed to be. It was lovely to see the trans community represented here. It was beautifully done. Nothing over the top or way out there. It felt natural to me.
I got a kick out of seeing actual OnlyOneOf video footage and songs used in the series. This felt like a group project to me and as a fan of the group, I appreciated seeing all of them appear in this at some point even if it was very small roles like Rie's jealous trainee role and Junji awkward kind of silly trainee role. As small as that role was, I feel it is different from how he seems to be in real life and I appreciate his effort. Again though, I've only been into them for a year so maybe I'm wrong about that but to me his character he played seems very different from how he seems in real life.
My only gripe with this series was the ending. I felt it was a bit rushed and there could have been a bit more time and story put into the ending but it did leave me satisfied, overall. Now I am so so SO very ready for a series with Rie and Junji as the lead couple and a series for KB and Yoojung just like how their music videos are shown. In fact I would love for there to be full length series BLs based off of each of their music video story lines because those are so darned good!!
Anywho, well done by all of them and I hope this is just the beginning for each of them in the terms of acting.
