Brotherly kisses and brotherly hugs but a fun heartwarming series to watch

This series really worked well with source material, several scenes from the manhwa were replicated on screen and it was beautiful to see. The actors had great chemistry and played their roles very well. The reason I rated the story a 9 is because they really didn't flesh out the second male leads story and this isn't entirely their fault because the manhwa barely does but I would have loved to see more of them. I'm hoping that we get a season 2 focused on them because their story is equally as interesting.

Another thing I didn't like were the kiss/hug scenes between Taejoon and Wonyoung. Fish lips kissing and side of lip kissing genuinely make my blood boil because it is passionless. I'm not saying they should shove each other's tongues down their throats but at least suck on each other's lips a bit, like actually kiss. I get that they were trying to keep it PG 13 since it aired on a network but I really hated it. The hugs too irritated me, Taejoon always hugged Wonyoung like they were brothers and Wonyoung was always stiff during their hugs, that's not how people in love hug each other. The smallest example we see of a lovers' hug is in the last episode when Wonyoung initiates the hug before Taejoon quickly transitions it into a brotherly hug.

Overall the show is interesting and has a great rewatch value. As long as you don't expect hot passionate kisses, you'll love this show!
