Good lead actors, but their chemistry was off

Cha Seo Won and Gong Chan (the lead couple) seem like capable actors, but their chemistry was off, like they never really clicked as a couple; they didn't feel comfortable as a gay couple. Their -- as others have called them -- dead fish kisses and robotic hugs did not help. Do Woo and Won Tae Min (the side couple) had much more electricity between them. Heck, even the hetero, couple in the last episode seemed more into each other. There are other KBL series' couples that seem so into each other (e.g., The Eighth Sense), they heat up the screen.

Great OST though.

I was also bummed that they did not say the word "gay" at all (at least in the subtitles I saw).

Worth a watch? I guess, but don't expect too much zing from the lead couple.
