This Was Actually so Bad…
As angry as I am, I’m not saying this show was bad just because none of my picks made it. In the first few episodes, it was really enjoyable to watch, but as time went on I just found myself getting bored. The show felt rigged from the beginning and the overall system was just weird and sucked. Trainees got praised at the start but then got lots of criticism and went on to be eliminated. It just didn’t make sense. It felt more like a beauty pageant than a show for singing and dancing. All of the trainees definitely were talented, but the ones who should’ve ended at the top got pushed to the bottom. I was really looking forward to this since my first survival show was Boys Planet and I wanted to watch another survival show with a permanent group. However, I just can’t bring myself to support this group with this horrible lineup. I have nothing against the girls individually, but as a group, they don’t all work well together in my opinion. I’ll tune in for their debut to see if the songs are good but that’s about it from me. Tbh Sooyoung and Aiki were the only real ones on there. Also, what kind of name is ‘I’LL-IT’???Was this review helpful to you?

THE BEST BL SERIES I’VE WATCHED SO FAR?????
WOW! This is surely the best bl I’ve watched thus far. I was either smiling or sobbing the entire time and I was here for it. The acting was so good. Ohm and Nanon did an amazing job. They really got into their characters and it made me forget I was watching a show! This is definitely a new comfort series for me and I will be watching it again!! I will also be recommending it to almost everyone I know!Here are a few other minor thoughts (skip if you don’t want spoilers):
-I’m a sucker for enemies to lovers and forbidden love, so this was completely right up my alley. Them sneaking around and being all lovey dovey when no one was watching was so cute.
-THE FIRST KISS ON THE ROOFTOP??? It would be impossible for me to write this review without talking about their first kiss. Like hello????? But, on another note, that kiss was just what I was missing from the other series I’ve watched recently lol.
-Lastly, as much as I would love to see these idiots again for a season 2, I don’t think it’s needed (if they were to do something else, I think an OVA type of thing like in anime would work well). I think the way they wrapped up the show was nice. I enjoyed how even though they were still hiding their relationship, they weren’t being super discreet anymore and everyone kind of knew. The way both of their parents knew they were still together but just went along with it made me smile. It really showed how even though they probably don’t fully approve of it, they know they both Pran and Pat are adults and make each other happy so they just want the best for their kids and for them to be happy.
That concludes my thoughts. If you’re reading this but haven’t watched it yet… WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR!??! Go watch one of the best bls to ever exist!!!!!!!!

Cute and Simple
For me, it was a little boring for the first few episodes, but when it started picking up it was a lot more enjoyable. This drama was definitely simple and cliché, but I think that’s why it worked. It was just a simple love story to feel good about. The side couple was really adorable too. However, I don’t think it’s something I’d end up rewatching, but I will consider recommending it.(By the way, does anyone know where I can find myself my own Guwon or Rowoon? I’m in desperate need of a good man.)

Very Wholesome
After reading the manhwa, I was excited to find out about the drama adaptation. Even though the story is nothing special, it’s definitely cute and refreshing. Just your typical feel-good cheesy romance. The actors also did a really good job portraying the characters like how they are in the manhwa! I’d definitely recommend this since it is short and sweet. If you watch this and are looking for more of Yul and Chan, definitely read the manhwa! There’s a season 2 where you can see their relationship develop more. :)Was this review helpful to you?
MUST WATCH!!!!!
I haven’t watched a bl drama before beside in anime, and I have to say, this was so amazing! I binged it all in almost one sitting. The story was super cute and wholesome. The ending was perfect for these dorky characters. The conflicts were also all resolved really well. Nothing in this story left me wondering ‘what about *insert plot point*?’ because everything was wrapped up nicely. EXCEPT for the side couples. They were also absolutely adorable and I wished we saw them more. I was feasting on the crumbs we got of them… Please give it a watch! I know I’ll definitely be watching it again in the future!Was this review helpful to you?
Actually One of the Best Things I Watched This Year
I’M NOT EXAGGERATING WHEN I SAY I CRIED LIKE 12 TIMES DURING THE LAST EPISODEOk but fr, this show was actually so amazing and I’ve recommended it to almost everyone I know. There really is nothing I would change about it tbh. I’m really going to miss watching this show every week. If you’re thinking about if you should watch it or not, stop thinking and just watch it. You will not be disappointed I promise (if you are I think you might be a psychopath). Please, please, please watch it and give the actors lots of love because they all did an amazing job!!
